You called it a side thing. And somewhere along the way, you stopped mentioning it at all.Real loneliness comes with having a calling, and most women won’t say it out loud because it feels like complaining about something you’re supposed to be grateful for.In this episode, I’m talking with three women from the same Catalyst Circle: Erin Port, Shawna Yarbrough, and Charlotte Edwards. We’re having an honest conversation about what it costs to keep explaining your calling to people who love you but still don’t understand you, and what happens when you finally find women who do.What You'll Learn in This Episode:Why the loneliness of a calling is so common, and why naming it is the first step out of itThe difference between being capable on your own and being genuinely connected, and why capable will only carry you so farHow to tell a safe circle from a draining one, and why vulnerability should be earned in stages instead of given away all at onceWhat it looks like to disentangle your worth from your work, so a slow month is information and not a verdict on youWhy setting boundaries and being clear is a form of kindness, not selfishnessHow a midlife season can become an awakening: deciding what you want for your life now that you're not managing everyone else'sTimestamps:(00:00) — Meet the circle: Erin, Shawna, and Charlotte(03:14) — Erin: "I thought I was broken," and finding women who spur you on(05:07) — Shawna: going from shared intention to real friendship(07:26) — Charlotte: grateful for the life you have and still wanting more(08:41) — When you share a dream and get the blank stare (or worse)(10:32) — "How long are you going to keep doing this little thing?"(12:20) — You don't have to apologize for your calling(14:17) — The loneliness of women who carry a lot with a smile(15:34) — When a mastermind doesn't work, and what makes the difference(17:31) — The no jerks policy and how women get placed with care(18:34) — How much time does this actually take?

By ten in the morning, you’re wired and foggy at the same time, reaching for sugar, caffeine, and one more scroll I already know will make me feel worse.That pattern has a real reason behind it, and it comes down to four brain chemicals that shape how we feel every day: dopamine, oxytocin, serotonin, and endorphins. Neuroscientist TJ Power calls this system DOSE, and understanding how these four work together helps explain why your midlife energy, your focus, and that low hum of anxiety you've carried for years start to make sense in a whole new way.I have been trying to get TJ Power on the show for eight months.

Join Me To Build Your Best Fall – https://buildyourbestfall.com/  Most of us were raised to be careful with money. Save it, stretch it, wait for the sale. Those habits matter, but nobody ever taught me the other half: how to make money grow while I sleep. In Part 2 of my money mindset series, I’m closing that gap with the four decisions wealthy women make with every dollar, and the one question that quietly changes how you spend. Not “can I afford this?” but “what kind of future does this build?” Because every dollar you spend is either building your future or buying you a nice moment. And wealthy women learn how to tell the difference.   What You'll Learn in This Episode: The one question to ask before any purchase that instantly reveals whether you're building wealth or renting a moment Why buying back your time is the first decision wealthy women make (and the brutal math on "you can always make more money, but you'll never make more Wednesdays") How paying for speed, through coaching and masterminds, can collapse years of expensive mistakes into one honest conversation Why protecting your energy and health early is a wealth decision, not a luxury The patience play: how buying assets before upgrades quietly builds real wealth while the world thinks you're behind What wealthy women refuse to buy, including the guilt that follows women every time they spend on themselves Why a woman of faith builds wealth in the first place: freedom to be outrageously generous when God nudges   Timestamps: (01:19) — The money skill nobody taught us: holding money vs. building it (02:05) — The question hiding inside every purchase: what future does this build? (02:23) — Decision 1: Buy back your best hours (and the "Wednesdays" math) (04:12) — Decision 2: Pay for speed, coaches, masterminds, and the fear underneath (06:21) — Decision 3: Protect your energy first, while you still feel good (07:41) — Decision 4: Buy assets before upgrades (08:51) — What wealthy women refuse to buy: approval and guilt (09:37) — Your one decision this week (10:31) — Why women of faith build wealth: freedom and generosity (12:12) — On the Wise Woman Method, plus this week's recommendation (13:39) — Redefining wealth: freedom and provision from the Lord   Links to great things we discussed:  The 7 Habits of Financially Healthy Women TV Recommendation - Widow’s Bay Function Health - Use code AWORTHINGTON10 for a discount on comprehensive lab testing Wise Woman Method on Substack Join Me To Build Your Best Fall – https://buildyourbestfall.com/ Take the Secret Superpower Quiz Join the Uplift Community Follow me on Instagram Don’t forget to watch me on YouTube!    I hope you loved this episode! 🎉Don’t forget to hit that subscribe button on Apple Podcasts and Spotify so you never miss a thing.

Join Me for the 90 Day Reset – https://buildyourbestfall.com/    You’re eating clean, sleeping more, doing everything you’re supposed to do for your health, and your body still isn’t getting the message. In part 2 of this conversation, Harvard psychologist Dr. Ellen Langer explains why “chronic” doesn’t mean permanent and shares a simple, science-backed mindfulness practice that has helped people with MS, stroke, Parkinson’s, and chronic pain see real improvement. This episode picks up right where part 1 left off, so start there if you haven’t listened yet. Dr. Langer breaks down what it means to learn something mindfully instead of absolutely, why judging yourself and everyone around you keeps you stuck, and why the years running together aren’t always a bad thing. She also gets personal about turning 40, what she’s doing to stay sharp, and why she believes life gets better as you get older.   What You'll Learn in This Episode: Why learning a rule "absolutely" instead of "conditionally" traps you in beliefs that don't fit your life The two-question mindfulness practice shown to reduce chronic pain, MS, stroke, and Parkinson's symptoms Why every negative judgment you make about yourself has an equally true, more generous version How to use AI as a tool without losing your own agency (and the surprising 45-year-old research behind it) Why Dr. Langer believes the goal isn't more years in your life, but more life in your years   Timestamps: (00:00) – Welcome back for part 2 with Dr. Ellen Langer (00:26) – Why investing in your mindset matters beyond just you (00:44) – Learning mindfully vs. mindlessly, and why the rule-writer's perspective matters (01:37) – The tennis racket story: why "the way you do it" isn't the only way (03:01) – The bell that should go off every time you're judgmental (03:47) – Why every judgment has an equally strong, opposite version (05:41) – Why the years blurring together isn't only a sign of aging (06:00) – Stop counting years, start adding life to them (08:00) – "Sticks and stones" had it backwards (09:33) – The label "chronic" and what it really means (10:05) – The two-question exercise that reduced chronic symptoms in real studies (11:59) – How to try the exercise yourself, step by step (13:38) – AI as a tool: the brilliant graduate student metaphor (14:03) – The 45-year-old research on self-induced dependence (17:28) – What Ellen wishes women understood about getting older (20:07) – What Ellen does to stay sharp and creative   Links to great things we discussed:  The Mindful Body Function Health Uplift App Join me on Substack: Wise Woman Method Alli on YouTube Join me for the 90 Day Reset – Build Your Best Fall   I hope you loved this episode! 🎉 Don't forget to hit that subscribe button on Apple Podcasts and Spotify so you’re always in the loop.

Join Me on Substack – https://wisewomanmethod You’ve stood at the kitchen counter with your phone in your hand, looking at the price of the one thing that would actually move your business forward, and talked yourself into waiting until next year. I’ve stood there too.  After all these years of coaching women who went on to build real wealth, the thing that surprised me was never the size of their accounts. It was how much they all thought the same way, like someone handed them a tiny list of money rules and forgot to give everyone else a copy. In Part 1 of this two-part series on money mindset and building wealth, I walk you through all seven of those rules, and most of them don’t cost a thing.     What You'll Learn in This Episode: Why building wealth starts with identity, not income, and how "builders" think differently before the evidence ever agrees with them The difference between money defense (saving, budgeting) and money offense (negotiating, investing, owning the asset), and why you were only taught half the game The better questions to ask when you're weighing a cost, so you're doing the math on a longer clock than fear knows how to read Why the women who build wealth think in decades, plant "pecan trees," and don't quit in the anxious short term How to buy freedom before comfort, and why the right afternoon back is worth more than the fancier version of what you already own Why the women you sit with become the women you become, and how to find rooms that stretch you toward your calling The one question to carry into your next "affordability moment" this week     Timestamps: (00:00) — The woman whose "irresponsible" decision turns out to be genius (00:25) — The kitchen counter and the "maybe next year" moment (01:21) — What women who build real wealth all have in common (01:48) — The seven secret rules of money (02:08) — Rule 1: Wealth starts with identity, not income (03:34) — Rule 2: Learn offense, not just defense (05:08) — Rule 3: Ask better questions (06:16) — Rule 4: Think in decades (07:33) — Rule 5: Buy freedom before comfort (09:14) — Rule 6: Invest in rooms that stretch you (11:35) — Rule 7: Build a life, not just a bank account (12:28) — This week's practice: your "affordability moment" (13:52) — Book recommendation: The Psychology of Money (15:42) — Where your steadiness actually comes from     Links to great things we discussed:  Alli’s Book Recommendation - The Psychology of Money Function Health - Use code AWORTHINGTON10 for a discount on comprehensive lab testing Wise Woman Method on Substack Take the Secret Superpower Quiz Join the Uplift Community Follow Alli on Instagram Don’t forget to watch Alli Worthington on YouTube!      I hope you loved this episode! 🎉Don’t forget to hit that subscribe button on Apple Podcasts and Spotify so you never miss a thing.
