The S. A. Mitchell Show

For nearly two decades, I believed the answer to my hormonal acne was another skincare product, another treatment or another dermatologist appointment.

Boy was I wrong!

In this episode, I share the unexpected lessons that came from a weight loss journey that had nothing to do with my skin, yet completely changed it.

This is not medical advice or a one-size-fits-all approach, though. It's my personal story of learning how nutrition, lifestyle and paying closer attention to my body transformed not only my skin, but also my confidence and overall wellbeing.

Inside the episode:

• Why external treatments were never enough for me
• The surprising connection I discovered between nutrition and my skin
• The foods I significantly reduced and why
• How clearer skin changed far more than my appearance
• The biggest lesson this journey taught me about listening to my body

Your life reflects the standards you accept.

In this episode, I share the six-step framework that helped me stop settling, rebuild my confidence and start creating a life that felt more intentional after a difficult season of feeling stuck.

After returning home from living abroad, I realised that changing my circumstances wasn't enough. I first had to change the standards I was holding myself to.

We explore why raising your standards can feel uncomfortable, how your daily habits reveal the expectations you have for yourself, and practical ways to build standards rooted in self-respect rather than perfection.

In this episode:

• Why your standards shape your life more than your goals
• The hidden cost of tolerating what no longer serves you
• Why raising your standards often feels lonely before it feels liberating
• The six practical steps to raise your standards without trying to change everything overnight
• How to build habits that reflect the person you're becoming

If you're ready to stop settling for less than you truly want, this episode will give you a practical framework to begin.

This Episode's Everyday Becoming Takeaway:

"The moment you quit settling, quiet the fear and embody your raised standards, that’s the moment your life begins to upgrade. What you lose by honouring those standards, never meant to stay".

See you in the next episode!

Body Confidence is often treated as something you either have or you don't.

In reality, confidence is built through the small choices you make every day.

So, in this episode, Shari explores what it really means to feel comfortable in your own skin - beyond appearance, perfection or other people's approval.

You'll learn practical mindset shifts to help you stop comparing yourself, build genuine self-belief and develop a healthier relationship with yourself.

Whether you're rebuilding your confidence after a difficult season or simply looking for a more grounded approach to personal growth, this episode will leave you with practical ideas you can begin applying today.

In this episode:

• Why confidence begins long before appearance.
• The habits that quietly strengthen self-belief.
• How comparison keeps you disconnected from yourself
• Practical ways to become more comfortable in your own skin

Stress and overwhelm are quite THE heavy topics - especially nowadays!

This is particularly true for ambitious women with full schedules, who naturally pack on so much onto your plates that dealing with stress and overwhelm can be the inevitable result of your actions.  

You can be busy with your kids, rushing to meet deadlines at work, juggling part time jobs and side hustles, suffering the loss of a close relationship, or putting tons of unnecessary pressure on yourselves for no good reason. Really, we goal-getter women never take it easy on ourselves. 

On top of that, the Covid-19 global pandemic has done its fair share of damage when it comes to increasing our levels of stress, anxiety, fear and overwhelm. 

But the problem is that when we get to these points of stress, burn out and overwhelm, we make so many mistakes that don’t serve us in healthy ways, without even realizing consciously what we’re doing. 

So, today I want to shine a light on those mistakes in the hopes that they will bring awareness and insight into your own reactions to stress and how you can handle it better.

Leveling up and setting higher standards for your life can be quite tricky if you don't know where to start. 

I know first hand that it's difficult to elevate your life, or to even envision a better life for yourself, when too many times you don’t believe that you can have exactly what you want. 

As a result of limited beliefs such as this,  you resort to thinking less about yourself, feeling less about yourself, and doing less in your life - because you think it's the best you can do. 

In a nutshell, you never live up to your true potential because your inner belief system says that you can’t. 

This type of lack mindset is not going to work if you want to improve your life. 

So, in this episode I plan to tell you everything you need to know about setting higher standards for your life...and actually living up to them.

This is the FIRST EVER EPISODE of the In Her Worlds Podcast! How exciting is that?! 

In this first episode, I peel back the curtains to let you know a little bit of my background as a Caribbean woman and the type of society I've grown up in, in a small island of 1.2 million people. You learn about my past career paths that left me unhappy and wondering if there was more to life than this, the serendipitious moment that changed my life, the heartbreak that almost paralysed me, and how I eventually used all of these elements of my life story to take big bold steps toward the life that I actually wanted and believed I deserved. It's a good one.

But more than that, you learn how this podcast will benefit you too. I let you in on the types of real, raw episodes we'll have, the type of people this podcast hopes to serve profoundly, the topics we'll discuss, and the types of people who will be represented and given a voice on this platform. 

My hope is that after listening to this episode, you will realize that with this podcast, I hope to create and empower a community of world-class women to dream big, and then go out into the world and take action to create the lives and lifestyles of their desires.

With all that being said, just know that I don't claim to be an expert, guru or genius in any way. All I am is a girl who is extremely passionate and enthusiastic about all things female empowerment and living life beyond the status quo. I live, breathe and think about this in my own life every day. So as i learn more and more about these topics, and as I meet other amazing people in these fields along this journey, i'll be here sharing them with you.

(P.S. If you hear loud noises in the background for a short period of time, please disregard! I now know that podcasting + home renovations are not bffs! lol)

Hope you enjoy!
