  • Ep35 Changing Your Mind Doesn’t Mean You Made the Wrong Choice

    What if changing your mind doesn’t mean you made the wrong decision?

    In this episode of The Inner Launch, Christina Bulkilvish explores why changing direction can actually be a sign of self-trust. We often stay committed to relationships, careers, goals, plans, and past decisions because we’ve already invested time, energy, money, or emotion—or because admitting we want something different feels like failure.

    But new information can change the decision.

    We’ll talk about the difference between changing your mind and letting fear make your choices, why you don’t have to make your past self wrong to choose differently today, and how learning to trust yourself means knowing you can reevaluate, adjust, and choose again.

    If you’re overthinking a decision, questioning something you once wanted, or struggling to let go of an old plan, ask yourself one question:

    Knowing everything I know today, would I still choose this?

  • Ep34 When Knowing Your Worth Means Walking Away

    Knowing your worth is one thing. Standing up for it when it could cost you something is another.

    In this episode of The Inner Launch, we’re talking about what it really means to recognize your value and stop accepting less than you deserve. From setting boundaries and asking for what you need to walking away from situations where you’re undervalued, standing up for yourself isn’t always comfortable.

    We’ll explore why we often overgive, over-explain, or try to prove our worth, why boundaries can create resistance, and how to stop abandoning yourself just to keep a job, relationship, friendship, or opportunity.

    Because your worth isn’t determined by whether someone else recognizes it. The question is: are you treating yourself like you believe it?

    If you’re working on confidence, self-worth, boundaries, personal growth, trusting yourself, or creating a life that feels more aligned with who you are, this episode is for you.

  • Ep33 Are You Living Your Values or Just Talking About Them?

    You say you value your health, your relationships, your freedom, your happiness, and your time. But does the way you're actually living reflect those things?

    In this episode of The Inner Launch, we're talking about integrity in a way you may not have considered before: the alignment between what you say matters to you and the choices you make every day.

    We'll explore how to identify your real values, recognize the difference between stated values and lived values, become more intentional about the trade-offs you're making, and start keeping the promises you make to yourself.

    Because living with integrity isn't about having everything perfectly balanced. It's about making sure the life you're creating actually reflects the person you want to be and what matters most to you.

    If you've been feeling disconnected, unfulfilled, or like something in your life is out of alignment, this episode will challenge you to look at where your time, energy, attention, and choices are really going.

  • Ep32 Which Version of Me Do You Know?

    What happens when you’ve changed, but the people around you still see the person you used to be?

    Sometimes personal growth happens so gradually that you don’t recognize how different you’ve become until a conversation, relationship, or unexpected moment shows you. You respond differently. You set a boundary you wouldn’t have set before. You speak up instead of staying quiet. And suddenly you realize: I’m not the same person I was a year ago.

    In this episode of The Inner Launch, we’re talking about what happens when you outgrow old versions of yourself, how personal growth can change friendships and relationships, and why someone knowing your past doesn’t necessarily mean they know who you are today.

    We’ll also explore the other side of growth: the possibility that you are still defining yourself by an outdated version of who you used to be.

    How do you know when you’ve truly changed? Can relationships evolve as you grow? And when is it time to stop letting old patterns, labels, and expectations define who you are becoming?

    If you’re navigating personal growth, changing relationships, stronger boundaries, self-discovery, or simply realizing you’re not the person you used to be, this episode is for you.

    Topics include: personal growth, identity, outgrowing relationships, friendship changes, setting boundaries, self-discovery, trusting yourself, changing old patterns, personal development, confidence, and becoming who you want to be.

  • Ep31 How to Know When Something Is Right for You

    How do you know if a person, relationship, job, opportunity, or even a place is actually right for you?

    Sometimes the hardest decisions aren't between something good and something bad. They're between something that's good and something that's actually good for you.

    In this episode of The Inner Launch, we're exploring how to recognize when someone or something truly fits who you are and the life you're trying to create. We'll talk about the difference between growth and misalignment, compatibility versus potential, recognizing patterns, trusting yourself through uncertainty, and why you don't have to prove something is bad in order to decide it isn't right for you.

    You'll also learn some of the questions you can ask yourself when you're struggling with a decision, including: Do I like who I am in this? Does this fit the life I want to build? And if nothing changed, would I still choose it?

    If you've been overthinking a relationship, career, friendship, move, opportunity, or major life decision, this episode will help you step away from what looks right on paper and start considering what actually feels right for you.

    Listen to The Inner Launch for conversations about personal growth, trusting yourself, confidence, intentional living, decision-making, overcoming fear, and creating a meaningful life on your own terms.

  • Ep30 The Problem With "Should"

    How do you know when a decision is truly yours?

    The moment you're faced with a big life decision, it seems like everyone has an opinion. Friends, family, social media, and even strangers all have ideas about what you should do.

    But what happens when those opinions start drowning out your own?

    In this episode of The Inner Launch, we're exploring how to navigate conflicting advice, let go of the pressure to live by everyone else's expectations, and make decisions that align with the life you want to create.

    We'll talk about why advice is often shaped by personal experience, how to recognize when you're making choices based on "should" instead of intention, and the questions that can help you reconnect with your own values before making your next big decision.

    If you've ever felt torn between what everyone else thinks is right and what feels right to you, this episode will help you find clarity—and the confidence to trust your own path.

  • Ep29 You're Not Just Living Your Life. You're Creating It.

    Are you creating your life consciously, or simply reacting to it?

    Most of us move through life on autopilot without realizing it. We respond to responsibilities, routines, expectations, and habits, rarely stopping to ask whether we're intentionally creating the life we truly want.

    In this episode of The Inner Launch, we explore the difference between living passively and living consciously. You'll discover how the smallest daily choices shape your confidence, relationships, purpose, and overall fulfillment—and why meaningful change begins with becoming aware of what you're creating every day.

    If you've ever felt disconnected from your life, stuck in routine, or ready to become more intentional about the person you're becoming, this episode will give you a new perspective on what it means to truly participate in your own life.

    In this episode, you'll learn:

    • Why living on autopilot keeps you feeling stuck

    • The difference between reacting to life and intentionally creating it

    • How your everyday choices shape your future

    • Why awareness is the first step toward meaningful change

    • Simple mindset shifts to help you live with greater purpose and intention

  • Ep28 Why Do We Have Gut Feelings? The Science and Purpose of Intuition

    Why do we have gut feelings? Are they just emotions, or are they something more?

Learn how intuition and logic work together, why your body sometimes knows before you do, and how understanding your intuition can help you make more intentional decisions in every area of life.

  • Ep27 What If Fear Is Actually the Sign to Go?

  • Ep26 Stop letting fear drive

    You've read the books, listened to the podcasts, watched the videos, and consumed all the advice—but your life still hasn't changed. Why? Because information alone doesn't create transformation. Decisions do.

    In this episode of The Inner Launch, we explore why so many people stay stuck in the learning phase, how overthinking disguises itself as productivity, and why waiting for certainty keeps you from building the meaningful, intentional life you want. If you're ready to stop gathering information and finally start trusting yourself enough to take action, this episode is for you.
