Podcast Overview
<p>Let's face it. You've been surrounded by messages your entire life telling you to prove your worth through achievement, success, likability, and a million other forms of being "good." Over time, those messages become rules you follow, often without even knowing it. Those rules make you believe everything will fall apart if you slow down. They tell you it’s your job to be responsible for everything and take care of everyone. They make you feel guilty for saying no. They tell you to prove, please, and perfect your way through life. It's time to stop. It's time to break those rules – and start living in grounded wildness. Join speaker, award-winning author of 'An Overachiever's Guide to Breaking the Rules' and 'Grounded Wildness', and recovering perfectionist Heather Whelpley as she shares honest conversations that will empower you to stop performing your life and start LIVING it. If you're tired of burnout, hustle culture, and the weight of “should” and “supposed-to” and want more joy, impact, and freedom in your life, this podcast is for you.

EP. 46 - The Key to Getting Through Fear, Discomfort, and Worry
<p>What do you do when fear, worry, and discomfort get in the way of you doing the thing you really want to do? That could be something big, like a career change, or something little, like going to an event where you don't know anyone. How do you take action even when fear is there?</p><p>It's not about getting rid of the fear. It's also not about trying to force yourself to be 100% confident. Instead, there is a question to ask that will give you an answer that's unique to you and your specific situation. I've used this key for MANY years and it always gives me the motivation I need to move forward even when it's scary. <br/><br/>In the episode, you'll get this key and how to apply it to different situations in your life, like:</p><ul><li>Setting boundaries and saying no (which can be so uncomfortable!)</li><li>Imposter syndrome and questioning if you really know enough and have enough experience</li><li>Projects, decisions, and career choices that people may not get - or may actively upset them</li></ul><p><b>Links:</b></p><ul><li>Learn more about hiring Heather as a speaker and her sessions on imposter syndrome, discovering your authentic voice, and setting boundaries: <a href='https://www.heatherwhelpley.com/speaking'>https://www.heatherwhelpley.com/speaking</a></li><li>Get signed, hardcover copies of Heather's books on <a href='https://www.heatherwhelpley.com/shop'>her website</a> and the audiobook, ebook, and hardcover of <em>Grounded Wildness</em> on <a href='https://a.co/d/g2saCHj'>Amazon</a></li><li><a href='https://sayno.heatherwhelpley.com/download'>Join Heather's email list</a> and also get The Ultimate Guide To Saying No and Setting Boundaries At Work!</li></ul>

EP. 45 - How to Stop Apologizing with Shira Miller
<p>We're diving into two topics on the podcast today: How to stop apologizing when you have nothing to apologize for AND getting unstuck in your work and life. Shira Miller is an expert on both! She's also a TedX speaker, certified coach, author and the Chief Communications Officer at National DCP. Let's be clear - there are reasons you apologize ALL THE TIME.
