Episode 283. Why I Chose DNA Over Discipline

This week on Confidence From Within Podcast, we will talk about an important topic - discipline. 

I believe discipline is borrowed fuel, and if you rely on it, it eventually runs out. This is a very important topic, especially this time of year when most people have a list of new health goals they want to achieve this year. 

• Why discipline is borrowed fuel and it eventually runs out
• Why most dieters fail, when setting weight goals
• How motivation is different between a finite vs. a cyclical goal
• How my DNA impacts my cravings and ability to stay on track
• The real cost of willpower and relying on discipline to achieve your weight goals
• Why most women are trying to solve the wrong problem - and what to do instead

Episode 277. Rebirth - How To Metabolize Change With Lacey Heels

This week on Confidence From Within podcast, my very special guest is Lacey Heels, poet and author of The Rebirth Rituals.

We explore the process of rebirth and why metabolizing change is such an essential but often overlooked step. Too often, we stay on autopilot, juggling work, family, and responsibilities, and we bypass the integration phase, which leads to repeating patterns or carrying stuck energy in the body.

This conversation will help you find a new way to approach the in between and will guide you on your own rebirth process.

• What is rebirth and how does it get triggered
• The identity shifts a woman faces, especially at midlife
• Why living on "autopilot" and bypassing the messy middle is NOT the way to go
• How to metabolize big transitions in your life
• Hear the behind the scenes about Lacey's new book, The Rebirth Rituals

Episode 274. Midlife Is Not A Crisis With Laurie Reynoldson

This week on Confidence From Within podcast, my very special guest is Laurie Reynoldson, host of The School Of Midlife podcast. We explore the emotional shifts that most midlife women experience. Laurie shares how midlife is not a decline, but a powerful season of discernment, intuition, and personal reinvention.

We discuss how to navigate identity shifts, redefine success, and start living a life aligned with your own definition of meaning and fulfillment.

• What is the biggest misconception that women have about midlife?
• Why our value and worth are not in question, as we age
• How shifting roles as we age impacts identity and the emotional wellbeing of so many women
• Why redefining success is essential for fulfillment in midlife
• What to do when you don't feel like yourself in midlife. What's the real problem?

Laurie Reynoldson is a sought-after podcaster, coach, speaker and the founder of the School of Midlife®. She works with hundreds of high-achieving midlife women in transition to focus on themselves first, figure out what they want in life and how they define success, so that they can make midlife their best life.

Laurie works remotely with clients worldwide from her homebase in Boise, Idaho. When she’s not cheering on midlife women, you can find her hiking and running in the mountains, eating her way through France and Italy, and sipping margaritas with a good book while lounging on a beach in Mexico. You can connect with her by clicking here.
