Who told you who you should be? In today’s honest and eye-opening episode, we talk about the invisible scripts we’ve all inherited, from family, culture, and past environments, and how they quietly shape the way we live. We share powerful stories, including client breakthroughs and our own experiences, to help you spot the inner critic that isn’t really yours. If you’ve ever felt stuck trying to meet expectations that don’t feel true to you, this conversation will give you clarity, courage, and the tools to start rewriting the rules.

In this episode of Evolve Ventures, we explore how high standards can quietly stall your progress. Through real moments and mindset shifts, we show you when to reach for excellence and when “good enough” is the wiser way. You’ll learn to sort what truly matters, escape the grip of procrastination, and harness tools like the 80% rule and Parkinson’s Law to work with, not against, time. Tune in and trade burnout for steady, soul-aligned progress.

Sacred rage, power reclaimed. In today’s powerful episode, we’re having a real conversation about what anger truly is and why it deserves a seat at the table. We share a powerful client story, lessons from our healing journeys, and a fresh perspective from CBT that helps reframe anger as a sacred signal, not a personal flaw. Together, we explore how unprocessed rage can live in the body, how it connects to boundaries, and how to move through it with compassion instead of shame. Whether you’ve blacked out from rage, bottled it up, or feared it would make you “bad,” this episode will help you see anger as the teacher it truly is.

What if feeling ugly isn’t actually about your looks? In today’s honest and powerful episode, we open up about our struggles with appearance and the deep-rooted beliefs that shaped how we saw ourselves. We talk about the rising fear of being unattractive, the emotional weight of beauty standards, and why external fixes, like surgery or filters, rarely heal the real wounds. If you’ve ever questioned your appearance or felt pressure to be “pretty enough,” this conversation is for you. You’ll walk away with clarity, compassion, and a fresh understanding of what truly builds lasting confidence.
