The Sow to Speak Podcast with Kristy Mandour

In this solo episode, I share info on Create Like a Mother, the upcoming special podcst series kicking off this Sunday, October 1st. This unique series is focused on how creative care is THE essential self-care for all of us mamas out there to feel peace, JOY, and stability when we can quickly lose ourselves in the swampy land of over-functioning.

Each week, I'll sit down with a guest who shares their story, support, and love of the power of keeping your creative spark alive while doing ALL the things. And how it truly is the relief and sustenance you've been craving.

I also share ways to create more space in your mind and body to better hear the internal nudges we often miss. These nudges or knocks are our soul's call to wake us up to what uniquely lights us up.

When you're done listening, subscribe (if you aren't already) and add a rating and review to keep the podcast reaching those who need it most.

I love hearing from you! Be sure to send me a DM on Instagram or LinkedIn with any a-has, insights, or questions that may pop up along the way.

In this solo mid-week booster, I share the anchoring three steps of noticing, neutralizing, and normalizing your emotions. These three steps clearly build on each other, no matter how intense your emotions may feel. I share a few different ways to neutralize (counterbalance) after noticing so you don't feel like you're stranded in the oftentimes panicked open water feeling of...well, your feelings.

*Enrollment is open for my eight-week online course, Get Ahead of Your Head. This course is for high-achieving leaders and entrepreneurs looking for science-backed and creative sustainable strategies to build a life-changing practice to stop overthinking and start understanding how to regain control of your mind.

In this episode, I share two of my offerings launching in October. The way I create anything is by asking myself, "Would I want to consume this?" I keep honing and chipping at it until the answer is "Hell yes!". These offers fall into that category, and I'm SO excited to share them with you.

First up is my signature eight-week online course, Get Ahead of Your Head. This course is for high-achieving leaders and entrepreneurs looking for actionable and sustainable mental wellness strategies to stop overthinking and start understanding how to regain control of their minds. I dive into this course's who, what, where, when, and why so you can choose if it's right for you. I also offer 1:1 coaching packages, so if the group thing isn't your jam, I've got you covered. Either way, after listening, feel free to schedule a chemistry call with me to see which fits your current lifestyle more.

The second offering is a series for the podcast called Create Like a Mother, that has been a decade-long in the brewing. Starting October 1st, I'll be having weekly guests to share their stories and strategies on how they continue to nurture their creative calling while not falling prey to the additional bucket of voices that clog our brains when we take on the role of being a mom. The guests will consist of everyday and higher-profile women who I deeply admire and appreciate in every way.

So be sure to subscribe to the podcast with a rating and review when you're done, and then join in on my weekly newsletter so you don't miss a beat.

In this mid-week episode, I'll be expanding on the topic of self-acceptance that I had with this past Sunday's guest, Jen Liss. I share the difference between acceptance and its lower vibe riders, resignation, and tolerance. You'll learn how acceptance is much more enticing than you think and, more importantly, how it feels. I share a few foundational emotional intelligence strategies and my signature exercise of characterizing emotions and personality traits.

"My calling in life is to help you discover the real you. The one you put aside until the time is right. The one that says, 'maybe one day.' " - Anna K. Morris

In today's episode, I sit down with mindset and journaling coach Anna K. Morris. Journaling coach? Yes! Anna shares good reason why having a coach by your side as you build your journaling practice is intricately connected to how you shift your mindset to work for you instead of against you. Anna courageously shares stories within her life that instantly remind us that although stories may be personal, their lessons are always universal.

Anna has an innate skill of listening to what really matters to you. She's helped clients who are business owners align their offerings more closely with their passions. And in doing so, their excitement and performance has been reinvigorated. She's also helped clients see blindspots in their belief systems and helped them take their performance and happiness to the next level.

In this solo episode, I share with you one of my favorite topics of self-leadership: our self-talk, specifically around situations where you feel obligated to do something and how changing your language directly impacts your feelings about it and your next steps. I walk you through one of my most popular exercises on shifting from thoughts that create a heavy feeling inside to ones that allow for more space and confidence.

In this solo episode, we're diving into the ever-human and equally sting-y topic of rejection. If we gave out Overthinking Awards, rejection would win 🥇 first prize. Every. Time.

Here's the thing: Rejection happens to everybody. Acknowledging this shared humanity is a hallmark practice of self-compassion, but still, it doesn't always soften the blow. It's super coachy to say that rejection is what you make it. And — I'm still gonna say it. There's always a lesson in there somewhere. Which doesn't mean you have to dig for it or force yourself into positive thinking. Be kind and honest to yourself and do your best to find a trusted confidante to talk to because being alone with your thoughts will not be helpful.

My go-to is usually to call a good friend who will either offer an ear to listen, a hug to give, or a spicy "Eff 'em! They don't know what they're missing" to keep it real. Still, the more we can find ways to adjust ourselves internally first, the better.

If you're facing rejection or secretly reeling and resenting from a years ago snub, this one's for you.

I'll be running minisodes in the next few weeks that dive deeper into the topic of self-leadership: what it is, why it matters, and how you can create a sustainable practice that works for you and your lifestyle. Be sure to subscribe to The Sow to Speak podcast to avoid missing a beat.
