The common mistake high-achievers make that keeps you feeling “not enough”

In this episode, we’ll talk about:
-
Why high-achievers often miss their own progress

86 \\ How to Measure Progress When You’re Not Seeing Results
Tuesday Jun 24, 2025
Tuesday Jun 24, 2025
External progress is often an overflow of internal work.
People will congratulate and celebrate your achievements, often as if it happened quickly, when in reality it took years of commitment and dedication to growth and consistency that no one ever saw or recognized.
Invisible progress are the intangibles. How you handle your attitude, commitment, leadership, responses.
Success is far more than monetary. Define your own timeline and remember that the progress behind-the-scenes may be quiet, but it's steadiness will speak volumes in time.
XO,
Shannon

85 \\ How to Stay Motivated in the Messy Middle
Tuesday Jun 17, 2025
Tuesday Jun 17, 2025
Do you ever get discouraged working a goal?
Have you felt like it's impossible and even asked, 'What's the point?'
Goals take immense focus and commitment. It's often not the goal itself that's hard, but who we're required to become in the process.
The messy middle is just that, a defining season that shapes and forms us into what the goal and our future require.
Staying committed in this season is one of the best things you can do to become and achieve all you're working towards.
Let's talk about how to stay motivated even when it's hard.

Shannon

84 \\ What if You Gave Yourself Credit Instead of Criticism?
Friday Jun 13, 2025
Friday Jun 13, 2025
Do you tend to notice "wins," or only areas for improvement?
It's important to celebrate the progress, not just critique the imperfections.
Every time you celebrate and recognize your progress and wins, you strengthen your inner voice's dialogue to speak positively and encouragingly.
Let's talk about some simple ways to do this regularly so you continue to set yourself up for success!

Shannon

83 \\ Consistency without Shame
Tuesday Jun 10, 2025
Tuesday Jun 10, 2025
Do you ever feel shame, disappointment, or even failure when you don't achieve something you set out to do? Is this usually self-inflicted or caused by others?
We are all motivated differently, but focusing on our values and reasons behind the goal for fuel and focus will always be more effective in our success short and long-term than shame-based motivation.
Make it clear why you're establishing the goal, then track your progress and celebrate along the way!

82 \\ You Don’t Have to Do It All, Just Do the Next Right Thing
Friday Jun 06, 2025
Friday Jun 06, 2025
Do you have an "all or nothing" mentality?
Do you constantly feel pressure to perform and be perfect to prove your worth?
I want to encourage you that doing your best doesn't mean doing it all. Every small step you take is worth celebrating.
The consistency and self-discipline you are instilling is one of the greatest habits!
You are worth the effort and showing up for, protect your peace and keep going.

Do you ever feel frustrated that you're not further along?
