Boldly Becoming You Podcast

Are you exhausted by constantly feeling like you're behind? In your life, your health, your business goals…there's NEVER 'enough' time. But what if we told you…

Feeling behind isn't actually about time. And it's not solved by "getting caught up". There are multiple layers of urgency wired into your mind-body loop and in this episode we dig into one of them that shows up in perfectionism frequently.

It's about all the invisible parts and pieces of your daily life that "steal focus" and aren't accounted for when you look back at your productivity for the day. The goals you didn't know you had, the open loops and the "normal" parts of life that actually take up a lot of mental, emotional and even physical space.

• We have a simple 10 minute exercise toward the end for you to see where some of these moments have occurred for you.

• Brandon describes his 'wipe off' lol regulation technique (he's gonna smother me for calling it that here 😂)

• There is also a weird audio issue for the last 5 minutes of the episode so we apologize for the wonky volume issues and static.

You want more money and you've thought about it a hundred times but are terrified to say it out loud, and today we get into exactly why. This episode is about the belief that making real money will turn you into someone gross, corrupt, or unrecognizable, that quiet story that's been hijacking your income without your permission.

We talk about the specific rules perfectionists and high achievers carry about money, why "enough" keeps moving the second you hit it, and the different ways money trauma gets passed down to women versus men.

Brandon gets honest about the money he made and got rid of just so he wouldn't have to feel like a slimy person.

You'll walk away with one specific thing to say out loud today, and it's going to feel more uncomfortable than you think it should but SO eye opening.

Unshakeable Entrepreneur is open now for our last cohort of the year, DM us if this conversation lands for you.

Profit Over Perfectionism Workshop REPLAY

We walked through: ✅ Exercise 1: Why your to-do list makes your chest tighten before you've even started — and what your body is telling you about "lazy" and "behind" that has nothing to do with either ✅ Exercise 2: The real capacity audit — where your CLCs are quietly draining hours you've been budgeting like they don't exist ✅ Exercise 3: The difference between income-producing activities and the busy work that just makes you feel productive — plus the one boundary most of you have never let yourself set

You'll walk away knowing exactly where perfectionism and burnout show up in your body, why "just do it scared" has never worked for you, and what to do the moment you feel yourself stall out.

This is a deep dive for coaches, service providers, entrepreneurs and creatives who use social media to sell their body of work. By the end of this episode, you'll know exactly why you can write the sales post and still not hit publish - and it's not because you're lazy, or undisciplined, or need a better planner. Trust us, we tried the planner. For years.

You'll walk away actually knowing how many touchpoints it takes for someone to buy from you (spoiler: way more than one Story), why your first launch attempt is allowed to be a shitty first draft, and why quitting on day 10 might mean you bailed right before the moment someone was finally ready to say yes.

Fair warning: there's a Darren Hardy joke Brandon refuses to elaborate on, and a rant about "the last minute" that will genuinely wreck your launch-day anxiety, in the best way.

This episode is a real-time look at what happens when you stop planning for your calendar and start planning for your capacity.

Tasha walks through how she timed a hard task around her cycle and her nervous system instead of muscling through it, and Brandon breaks down why soothing yourself and actually stabilizing yourself are two completely different things.

You'll hear the two questions they use to help them move forward when business, life and their health are challenging, and why most people never even ask them.

Brandon and I walk you through the 4 questions we ask every business owner with a goal and a complex life

If things aren't going according to plan and the only solution you can come up with is to "do more", "work harder", "pull longer hours", or "just start over" …

…these 4 questions are the mid-year audit you need

I was 37 years old, bedbound, and absolutely furious that I had spent 15 years jumping through hoops for rules I never agreed to and had nothing to show for it.

That rage is where Rules & Rebellion started. The moment I realized the thing I actually loved doing had nothing to do with the makeup, the heels, the performing, any of it. And Brandon looking around at the life we'd worked so hard for and asking, why in the world would we ever want to go back to a place that got us here?

This episode is about how Rules & Rebellion started and evolved to what we do today. What we were really looking for when we started this. Why every version of the business has looked different. And what finally made it click when we stopped trying to make someone else's blueprint work for our actual life.

Seven years, a lot of iterations, and more than a few things we built that we realized later we didn't even want, that's what we get into today.

If you've ever rewritten a sales email eleven times, let a brilliant content idea rot in your notes app, or word-vomited through an entire discovery call trying to prevent a question nobody asked yet, this episode is going to make a lot of things click.

The sales email you can't send, the post you can't publish, the price you over-explained before anyone complained, that's not a discipline problem or a character flaw. That's your nervous system doing exactly what it learned to do under high stakes. And in business, every income-producing activity can feel like high stakes.

We get into the four specific flavors of perfectionism that show up in business, including the sneaky one that high achievers almost never recognize in themselves, and why knowing about them isn't enough to change them.

This episode is especially a must-listen if you're a coach, healer, or service provider who knows what they're doing, shows up for every client, and still can't figure out why the business side keeps feeling like crap.

The last two weeks were a lot, demanding but the good kind of hard, the kind you actually work toward for years.

If you've ever looked at your life and thought, I am doing everything right and I am still completely wrecked, why is this so hard? Push play now. Brandon and I pulled back the curtain on what it actually looks like to run a business, show up for your kids, navigate your own health, and try to take care of yourself all at the same time, without pretending any of it was graceful.

There's something we talk about in this episode that I don't think gets enough airtime: the moment you realize a goal you've been holding onto has to go on the shelf for a bit, not because you failed, but because something bigger needed your WHOLE attention. And what happens in your nervous system when you finally let yourself do that.

Brandon gets real about something he's been quietly navigating for a long time, and why taking it seriously right now is one of the hardest things he's done, harder, he says, than getting sober.

We talk about what it costs to add one new thing to a life that's already full, why "just do the healthy thing" is some of the most tone-deaf advice on the planet, and what it actually looks like to make decisions from your values instead of your anxiety when your CLC score is through the roof.

This one's raw and if you're a high-achieving entrepreneur trying to figure out how to not lose your shit, or yourself while your life is actively demanding everything you've got, we get it.
