Be honest, are you a people pleaser? Do you find yourself becoming overwhelmed, anxious, or maybe even depressed simply from saying "yes" or simply going over and beyond to please others? “Yes, I will take on that project (even though it's unaligned with my goals).” “Yes, I will do this, yes I will do that.” Being a “YESER” can feel like an exhausting hamster wheel. In Episode 7 Online Business Coach and fellow podcaster, Erin Pride gets vulnerable as she tells us her story of going from a people pleaser to putting her needs first! See what happens when you tap into your confidence, get super clear about what you want, and how leaning into the power of “NO” can be one of your biggest assets.

How are you feeling, friend? To face yourself. To face your past and to face your truth is no easy feat. But it can be done! We all have a narrative, some are true and some are false. Many times these are stories that other people have told us and the stories that we have told ourselves. When these false narratives replay in our head and become our truth it takes a deep commitment to get to the other side. Trigger Warning: In this very first episode, guest Ashely Whelan demonstrates this commitment! Listen to how Ashely rediscovered herself and her power after carrying the the burden of sexual abuse on her shoulders and within her body for years. But now Ashely has a new narrative, “Lift Weights, Lift Spirits!” In her story of beautiful bravery, she speaks with the strength and the conviction of a true warrior!
