Unapologetically Authentic

In this episode of Unapologetically Authentic, I sit down with my incredible friend Jessica Phillips—empowerment coach, speaker, and podcast host who helps women break free from limiting beliefs and step into their full potential.

We dive deep into a powerful metaphor: a pot of water on the stove. As the water heats, it starts to simmer… then boil. That’s exactly what growth feels like. But just as you’re about to hit your boiling point—that powerful overflow of transformation—the people closest to you might try to pull you off the burner to “keep you safe.”

It’s not because they don’t love you.

It’s because your growth makes them uncomfortable.

But choosing to stay small to make others comfortable? That’s not your path.

In this conversation, we talk about:

💭 Why growth can make others nervous

🛑 How “protection” can trigger self-doubt and unworthiness

✨ The emotional risk of authenticity

⚡️ And why being judged for who you really are is better than being liked for who you’re not

We also share the beautiful story of how Jessica manifested her way onto the Unapologetic Abundance 2025 stage—and how powerful things happen when you fully claim your truth and speak it out loud.

You’re going to want to see her live this May in Greenville, South Carolina!💚

From horses to horsepower—this is the story of how our racing life unfolded!

People often assume we’ve been in this world forever, but the truth is, my journey started with actual horses. I grew up riding and showing Morgan horses, even went to college for equestrian studies and veterinary medicine before realizing that path wasn’t for me. That’s when I pivoted to cosmetology, building a 24-year career in the salon industry and even owning my dream salon.

Meanwhile, Bill was racing four-wheelers, and once we got married and started our family, we put racing on hold to focus on building our first home and raising our babies. But after Logan was born, I jumped into four-wheeler riding, and soon enough, our whole family was involved in racing. We started small—woods racing and then motocross at Maple Shade Raceway in PA—but once Logan threw his leg over a dirt bike at four years old, everything changed. The girls gave it a shot too but ultimately pursued school sports, while Logan never looked back.

Over the years, we kept leveling up—traveling more, chasing championships, and investing in his training. By the time the girls graduated high school, we knew it was time to go all in. We sold our home, our businesses, and hit the road full-time in our RV to support his dream. People were shocked, but honestly? It wasn’t a huge change—we had already been living in an RV most of the time anyway!

Now, Bill drives the pro rig for the Kawasaki GNCC team, and we’re living this lifestyle more than ever. But here’s the thing—none of this happened by accident. Opportunities come when you put yourself in the right places, around the right people, and take action toward your goals.

If you’ve ever wondered how we got into this life, why we love it so much, and how you can create a lifestyle that aligns with your biggest dreams, this episode is for you!

🎙 Listen now and let’s talk about chasing passions, making bold moves, and saying YES to the life you want!

🔊 Listen now and let us know your biggest takeaway! 💬💫

Life has a funny way of showing up.

Right now, I’m sitting inside the Rocky Mountain Red Bear Racing Kawasaki rig, reflecting on the wild journey that has brought me here. And what’s hitting me the hardest?

If I had never pursued my dream… if I had never made the decision to go all in on myself… my husband and my son wouldn’t be living their dreams right now.

We often think that chasing our own desires is selfish. But what if saying yes to yourself is actually the most selfless thing you could do?

In this episode, I’m diving deep into:

✨ How my own decision to go after what I wanted created ripple effects beyond what I ever imagined.

✨ The unexpected ways life has shown up—proving that timing and dreams don’t always unfold as we expect, but always for our highest good.

✨ The power of making bold moves, even when it feels scary, uncertain, or selfish.

✨ A challenge for you to step into your own transformation and trust that when you go all in, the doors will open in ways you never expected.

Tears are welling up as I share the magic unfolding in my life right now—opportunities I never could have dreamed of, and proof that everything happens for us when we take that first step.

And if you’re ready to be surrounded by powerhouse women, to step fully into your next level, and to experience transformation in ways you never imagined…

I’d love to see you at Unapologetic Abundance 2025 and the Abundant Badass Retreat!

🔥 Welcome to Season 7 of Unapologetically Authentic! 🔥

This year is all about elevation. Not just growth, not just movement—true, intentional elevation in every area of life. And in this episode, I’m breaking down why I’m shifting from the ripple effect to the elevation effect.

Because here’s the thing: ripples fade as they move outward. They lose strength. And I don’t want to create an impact that gets weaker as it spreads—I want to build an Elevation Effect where each woman I lift up helps lift the next. Stronger. Higher. Together. 💡

In this episode, we dive into:

✨ Why Elevate is my word of the year

✨ The difference between the Ripple Effect vs. the Elevation Effect

✨ How to rise higher so you can help others do the same

✨ Why elevation starts with YOU first

✨ How you can take action to elevate your life, your business, and your relationships

And of course, I’m sharing ways you can elevate alongside me this year—through my Unapologetic Foundation coaching program, the Unapologetic Abundance event, and the Abundant Badass Retreat. 🚀 

Grab your ticket here: erinrenningercoaching.com/event

🔥 Dare of the Episode:

I dare you to elevate. Choose one area of your life where you know it’s time to rise—your mindset, your relationships, your confidence, your business—and take one bold step toward it. No waiting. No overthinking. Just action. Because the moment you decide to rise, you give others permission to rise with you. 💥

Are you ready to elevate? Let’s do this together.

🎧 Tune in now and let’s rise!

The holiday season is often portrayed as the most joyful time of the year, filled with tradition, cheer, and perfection. But for many, the reality looks quite different. In this episode, we’re diving into the unfiltered truth about the holidays.

From financial stress and grief to the pressure of people-pleasing, we’re shining a light on the struggles that often remain hidden. We’ll also talk about navigating seasons of change—whether it’s a job loss, a big move, or a bold decision to chase a new dream—and how those transitions can reshape the way we celebrate.

Most importantly, we’ll refocus on what this season is truly about: celebrating Jesus and finding peace, joy, and connection in the imperfect moments.

What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

•The societal pressure for a “perfect” holiday and how it affects us.

•Hidden struggles many face during the holidays, including financial stress, mental health challenges, and grief.

•How seasons of change can reshape holiday traditions—and why that’s okay.

•Practical tips for simplifying the holidays, setting boundaries, and finding joy in imperfection.

•A heartfelt reminder of the true meaning of the season: celebrating Jesus and His hope-filled message.

This Week’s Dare:

I dare you to have the hard conversation this week. Whether it’s setting financial boundaries, explaining a life transition to your family, or saying no to people-pleasing, take the step toward peace. Remember, Jesus came to bring hope, not stress, and it’s okay to let go of perfection this holiday season.

In this inspiring episode, I sit down with my amazing friend, Lisa Humphrey, to hear her incredible story of transformation, resilience, and the power of community. Lisa’s journey began with a life-or-death wake-up call—told she had only six months to live unless she made drastic changes, Lisa faced fear, self-doubt, and the daunting task of reclaiming her life.

Her journey wasn’t just about losing 215 pounds—it was about finding the courage to take the first step, even when walking to the mailbox seemed impossible. Along the way, she discovered that the key to sustained growth lies in surrounding yourself with the right people. Lisa shares how the words of just one person can change everything and how a supportive community can keep you motivated through the hardest moments.

Lisa’s transformation didn’t stop with her health. She went on to reclaim her life, building three thriving businesses and living the dream life she once thought was out of reach. Now, as a speaker, life coach, 180 method coach, personal trainer, and nutrition coach, Lisa helps other women break free from feeling stuck and empowers them to create the fulfilling lives they deserve.

In this episode, we explore:

•Lisa’s life-changing moment and the courage it took to get unstuck.

•The role of community in helping her stay motivated and committed.

•The mindset shifts needed to create sustainable change.

•How Lisa turned her transformation into a mission to help others.

Lisa’s story is a powerful reminder that transformation is possible for anyone, no matter how insurmountable the journey may seem. Her message is clear: you’re not alone, and with the right support, you can rewrite your life’s narrative.
