The SPIRAL UP Podcast with Dr. LaChelle Wieme

The smartest women I know run seven-figure businesses and still don't trust themselves. They manage teams, own buildings, and solve problems all day long, and then they sit across from me afraid to make one decision they already know the answer to. Confidence is what everybody else sees. Self-trust is what's happening on the inside, and this week I'm getting into how it gets trained out of us and how you rebuild it.

The question Oprah says every single person asked her the second the cameras stopped rolling
Why I got called into my director's office for going to Toastmasters on my lunch break
The double bind that has you calling yourself confused when you already know

You know what you need to do, friend. Let's get you trusting it.

What happens at a women's retreat when twelve strangers land on a private island in Alaska?

I brought my Alaska crew back together to recap the Aligned by Design retreat hosted by Kellie Johnson, the somatic practitioner who built the whole experience. We cover the breathwork, the identity recalibration sessions, and the healing that moved fast and felt good.

The twenty year dream Kellie walked in with, and what happened to it during her identity session
Why one woman jumped into 45 degree Alaskan water after years of believing she couldn't swim
What every woman quietly asks herself before she books something like this, and what this group says back

There is a place at the table for you, friend.

I spent twenty years trying to fix myself. Turns out THAT was the problem.

Here's what I've come to see: most people aren't stuck because something is wrong with them. They're stuck because they're operating from an identity that no longer matches where they're being called to go. One belief creates shame and keeps you chasing. The other creates possibility, and it changes everything about how you grow.

A seed doesn't get dug up every day so you can check whether it's growing. It gets planted, watered, and trusted, and I walk you through what it looks like to grow yourself the same way.

The real reason another course, book, or certification never quite scratches the itch, and what that endless craving is really pointing to underneath
The single question most personal growth is quietly built on, and why that one assumption guarantees you keep circling the same block instead of moving past it
Why becoming looks nothing like fixing, plus the simple seed analogy that reframes the entire way you think about growth and progress

If you're tired of treating yourself like a problem to solve, consider this your invitation to stop, take a breath, and grow the way a seed does, by becoming who you already are instead of fixing who you're afraid you're not.

Andrea Niestas spent 20 years helping people through the worst mental health crises of their lives. Two years ago she became the patient, and everything she knew about resilience got tested from a hospital bed she wasn't sure she would leave.

A medication change she couldn't afford spiraled into septic shock, a coma, and surgery that removed most of her colon. She woke up unable to move, talk, or even point to letters on a board. What pulled her out wasn't a breakthrough or a miracle. It was one decision, made on purpose, that things could get better.

We get into why hopelessness keeps people stuck, how gratitude becomes the first clue that change is possible, and why we tend to move more from pain than from pleasure. It applies whether you are fighting for your life or just tired of settling for fine.

The question Andrea started asking herself in that hospital bed that flipped her from "why did I even survive this" into something that finally moved her forward
Why gratitude has nothing to do with rose colored glasses, and the small shift that gets your brain hunting for hope instead of collecting proof that it's hopeless
The three word framework Andrea now teaches that carried her through recovery, and how to start using it long before you ever hit a breaking point

If you are stuck in the messy middle of something hard, this one is proof it can get better, and that the first step is smaller than you think.
