    The Two Mindsets That Determine Your Growth: Open vs. Resistant

    Most people think they need a better strategy to grow. But after coaching thousands of women, I can tell you that's not what's holding you back. It's resistance. In this episode of Your A-Game Podcast, I break down the two mindsets that determine whether you actually grow or stay stuck: Open vs. Resistant. You'll learn how resistance shows up in your daily thoughts, decisions, and behaviors and why it quietly blocks your progress, even when you want change. More importantly, I'll show you how to identify which mindset you're operating from right now and what to do next. Because growth doesn't come from knowing more. It comes from being willing to see yourself clearly and shift. What You'll Learn in This Episode: The real reason most people don't follow through on change How resistance disguises itself as logic, timing, or overwhelm The difference between an open mindset and a resistant one Why some women grow quickly (and others stay stuck for years) A simple brain dump exercise to uncover your hidden blocks How self-awareness is the foundation of your A-Game Key Takeaways: You don't have a strategy problem you have a resistance problem You cannot create change while defending your current patterns Growth requires willingness, not perfection Awareness is the first step to momentum Your Audacious Action: Take 10 minutes today and do a full brain dump. Write down every excuse, fear, hesitation, and block that's coming up for you right now. Then ask yourself: Am I willing to face this and break it down, whatever it takes? That answer will tell you everything. Connect + Next Steps: If this episode hit for you and you're ready to move from resistance to momentum, this is exactly the work we do inside my coaching.

    Audacity to Speak: The Voices, Stories, and Energy Behind This Year's Summit

    This episode is all about voice, visibility, and audacity. I'm pulling back the curtain on the Audacity to Speak Summit and introducing you to the energy, stories, and intention behind the speakers who are stepping into this space. These aren't just polished experts or surface-level conversations, these are real women with lived experience, wisdom, and messages that matter. Audacity to Speak was created because too many women: downplay their voice wait for permission silence their story or believe they need to be "more qualified" before being seen This summit exists to disrupt that. In this episode, I share: Why Audacity to Speak is more than an event, it's a movement What makes this year's speakers uniquely powerful The common thread connecting their stories, expertise, and courage Why representation, honesty, and real conversations matter now more than ever How speaking up, on a stage, in business, or in life creates momentum and impact Each speaker brings a different perspective, background, and message, but they all share one thing in common: they chose to stop shrinking and start showing up. Whether you're someone who wants to speak on a stage, lead more boldly in your business, advocate for yourself in your life, or simply feel less alone in your journey, this episode will remind you that your voice is not random. It's required. Audacity isn't about being loud. It's about being honest. And this lineup embodies exactly that. Ask yourself: Where am I holding back my voice? What story or message am I meant to share? What would change if I stopped waiting for permission? If this episode resonates, you'll want to experience the Audacity to Speak Summit—where these conversations go deeper and these voices take the stage. And if you know a woman who needs this reminder, share this episode with her. Your voice matters more than you think.

    The Season of Seeing Yourself Clearly

    This season isn't just about wrapping gifts, it's about unwrapping your own clarity. As the year winds down, Susan shares a candid message on how to shift from survival mode to self-honoring awareness. She challenges listeners to look beyond surface-level metrics and instead ask: How am I really showing up? Am I proud of how I moved through this year, even the messy parts? Because clarity doesn't come from chaos. It comes from conscious reflection, self-trust, and the willingness to see your story truthfully. Drawing from her A-Game coaching approach, Susan encourages a new kind of year-end checklist—one rooted in awareness, acknowledgment, and appreciation. You'll walk away feeling seen, empowered, and ready to close the year with intention. Reflection Prompts From the Episode: How did I rise this year, even when things felt heavy? What versions of myself do I want to release as the year closes? What evidence do I have that I'm more aligned, more aware, and more anchored? Thank you to our Episode Sponsor >>> TCB Promotions!

    You Have a Choice to Show Up Well

    In this powerful and reflective episode, Susan Vernicek shares a timely reminder sparked by a quote from David Childers: "You have a choice to show up well." Whether you're in sales, coaching, leadership, or parenting, life is made up of moments. And in each moment, we get to choose how we show up. Recorded fresh off a title sales conference (in the very industry Susan coaches in), this episode invites listeners to drop the pressure of perfection and instead pursue intentional presence. Susan shares how her nearly two decades in sales, coaching, and motherhood have taught her that showing up well isn't about doing it all, it's about how you carry yourself in the doing. You'll hear about: How "showing up well" can change the energy of a room, a conversation, and a relationship Why follow-through, listening, and mindset matter more than hustle How her DTC family and coaching clients are rewriting what success looks like A call to choose consistency over chaos, value over vanity, and connection over performance Key Takeaways: You don't have to show up perfect; you just have to show up well Real growth happens in how you lead, serve, and connect across all life domains Whether you're a title rep, mom, coach, or entrepreneur; your energy speaks first For Listeners to Reflect On: Where in your life are you showing up by default instead of with intention? What would "showing up well" look like in your next client meeting, family dinner, or team call? Let's connect on Instagram: @SusanVernicek or Visit: www.SusanVernicek.com
