    110: I Once Was the Fly | Why Trying Harder Isn’t Always the Answer

    In this episode, I’m bringing you behind the scenes of my real-time growth journey—the mindset shifts and the patterns I’m breaking. We’re talking about the trap of “trying harder” … and why that might actually be the thing keeping you stuck and dragging you into burnout. I share a powerful story from the book You² that cracked something open for me, plus a deeply personal experience where I realized I had been the fly—working harder, pushing faster, and still hitting the same invisible glass. If you’ve ever felt like no matter how much you do, it’s still not enough… this one is for you. This episode is about: Letting go of force and over-effortRecognizing when the “glass” will never breakFinding the open door (and actually choosing it)And redefining what enough really looks like in this next level of your life I’m also sharing what this is shifting for me in real time—in my business, my energy, and how I’m creating my most peaceful, profitable, and aligned year yet.

    108: Self-Trust | The Hidden Confidence Block Keeping You Stuck

    In this episode, I’m diving into something I’ve been noticing everywhere lately — what I’m calling a self-trust recession.We hear so much about the trust recession online… but what happens when the trust we’re actually lacking is the trust we have in ourselves? I’m sharing a real behind-the-scenes look at a recent whirlwind weekend of travel, leadership, family time, and staying committed to the promises I made to myself. From time-blocking and honoring your energy, to creating margin, building confidence in the tiny moments, and making space for God to show up in powerful ways — this conversation is all about how self-trust is built and how it directly impacts your results, your peace, and your next level. If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, horizonless, or stuck between knowing what you want and actually following through — this episode will give you practical perspective, mindset shifts, and the permission to simplify, realign, and rise. Because when one woman increases her self-trust… everything changes.

    107: The REAL Reason You Can’t Figure Out Your Enneagram Type

    In this episode, I’m sharing one of my favorite OG Chelsey ways to understand your Enneagram — not just your core type, but the five parts of you that are all reacting at the same time. I walk you through a real-life spiral I recently had (because hi, I’m human) and how my Enneagram 8 core, wings, stress number, and security number were all showing up with very different opinions. If you’ve ever felt like you relate to multiple Enneagram types or struggle to figure out your true type, this is going to click in a whole new way. We’re talking about how understanding your Enneagram dynamics, emotional processing, stress patterns, and inner leadership can help you move through hard weeks with more clarity, peace, and resilience — instead of overwhelm and confusion. I’ll also give you a simple stick-figure exercise you can do today to map your own “Inside Out” Enneagram parts and start leading yourself with more intention. If you’re craving clarity, emotional intelligence, personal growth, and aligned leadership, this one’s for you. And if you want a processing partner to help you navigate it all, I share how we can work together inside my Enneagram typing experience and coaching.

    105: Why Your Habits Aren't Sticking

    In this episode, we’re diving into one of the most powerful drivers of change: identity. If you’ve ever found yourself wanting different results like better health, stronger habits, more success in business ... but struggling to actually follow through, this episode will shift the way you think about growth. I’m sharing a personal story from a recent retreat and unpacking how the identities we carry ... from our family, culture, and life experiences ... quietly shape our actions every single day. From being an Iowa farm girl to embracing champion DNA, brain health, and the role of a coach’s wife, I walk you through how identity has influenced the way I show up in my health, marriage, leadership, and business. We also talk about the four practical steps to shifting your identity so your actions start aligning naturally with the life you want to create. If you’re ready to release old labels, step into a new version of yourself, and build habits that actually stick, this episode is for you. Because the truth is: when your identity changes, everything else follows.
