Welcome to the Find Your Fierce Podcast, where you will discover your fierce, unlock an unstoppable mindset, build unbreakable courage, and completely transform how you show up every single day. I'm your host, Jill Allen, and I'm so glad you're joining me today.

In this episode of Find Your Fierce, I'm joined by someone who means the world to me — my daughter, Harper. It's been a few years since she was last on the podcast, and I'm beyond excited for you to hear her thoughts on discipline, leadership, and staying true to yourself in a world full of distractions. Harper is a driven senior who's not only crushing it in cross-country, basketball, and track, but she's also got a wisdom about her that constantly amazes me. Honestly, she teaches me something new every single day.

In this conversation, we dive into what it really means to show up consistently — even when no one's watching or clapping. Harper opens up about how she handles pressure, what she does when motivation dips, and how she leans into the small, everyday habits that make a big difference. These are the quiet wins that no one sees, but they matter the most. It's all about leading with purpose, staying grounded, and keeping your "why" at the forefront — even when the easy path is staring you in the face.

Here's a sneak peek of what we talk about:

• 2:05 — From freshman year to her senior year: the highs, the challenges, and everything in between in both athletics and academics.

• 6:10 — What keeps Harper going when motivation is low and no one is cheering her on.

• 9:40 — How she deals with comparison, perfectionism, and those internal voices that can sometimes be her biggest roadblocks.

• 13:20 — Why she chooses the harder, narrower path and how she stays true to her calling, even when shortcuts look tempting.

• 17:05 — Leading through empathy, building relationships, and holding herself (and others) to a higher standard.

• 21:15 — How she stays emotionally, physically, and spiritually grounded, even with a jam-packed schedule.

• 24:30 — Harper shares her favorite quote, her go-to habits, what she refuses to compromise on, and the advice she'd give her younger self.

Key Takeaways:

Leadership is built through relationships, connection, and showing up consistently, not just titles or accolades. -Jill

Your quiet wins matter: what you do when no one is watching shapes your character and your future success. Staying grounded in identity, faith, and purpose helps navigate pressure, comparison, and burnout. -Harper
