    EP 266: The Space Between Who You Were and Who You're Becoming

    We don't always talk about the messy middle of transformation, the season where you've outgrown your old self but haven't fully stepped into who you're becoming yet. This episode is about that uncomfortable in between space. The grief of letting go, the frustration of feeling stuck, and the courage it takes to keep showing up while the next version of you is still under construction. Growth isn't always the highlight reel. Sometimes it's crying in the car. Sometimes it's starting over. Sometimes it's trusting the process with no proof it's working yet. Talking points: The grief of outgrowing your old identityWhy the in between season feels so uncomfortableKnowing you're meant for more without knowing the next stepThe pressure to have it all figured outLetting yourself be a beginner againLost vs. in transitionTrusting the woman you're becoming before you fully see her With purpose and intention, Yvette Valdenegro & Geovanna Burgess White Resources & Links: ⁠⁠⁠📖 Book⁠⁠⁠ 🎧 ⁠⁠⁠Audiobook Read-Along⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠🌐 Website⁠⁠⁠ 📞 ⁠⁠Schedule a Connection Call⁠⁠⁠ 🤝 ⁠⁠Sponsor Applications⁠⁠⁠ This podcast is brought to you by YG Collaborations — guiding you through self, time, identity and seasons of life, helping you build a life that truly holds you.

    Episode 265: Opening the Doors to Coaching Men

    We're opening the doors to coaching men, and this episode is why. For years YGC has been a space for women to redesign their relationships and their lives. Today that circle gets bigger. We talk about why so many men struggle in silence, the societal script that tells them stoicism equals strength, and why the coaching industry has quietly left them out of the conversation. We're introducing our Trifecta for men: Relationship with Self, Identity, and Evolution. Not therapy. Not about tearing someone down to rebuild them. A real, structured space for men to figure out who they are and what one small action could move them forward. If you're listening on behalf of the man in your life, a son, a partner, a friend, this one gives you language for what he might be carrying and never says out loud. We cover: Why men are statistically less likely to seek helpHow identity gets tied to performance, and what happens when the ground shiftsThe gap in the coaching industry most men never saw themselves inWhat success actually looks like coaching a man through changeThe one decision every transformation starts with Follow along and share this one with a man who needs it.

    In this episode, Geo sits down with YGC co-founder Yvette Valdenegro to talk about the climb that changed everything. Yvette shares what it was really like to summit Mount Kilimanjaro's Lemosho Route, including the parts nobody warns you about: the exhaustion, the fear, and eventually an undiagnosed case of pulmonary edema she pushed through to reach the top. But this conversation isn't just about the mountain. Yvette walks Geo through the four levels of consciousness she moved through on the climb, and how that same framework shows up in the work we do with our clients every day. She talks about what it means to stop surviving and start actually living as yourself, not performing a version of yourself for everyone else.You'll hear about: What actually happens in your body and mind above 19,000 feetThe moment Yvette had to ask for help and what that taught her about controlThe four levels of consciousness, explained simplyWhy perfect peace was never something to chase, it was already there[Exciting announcement — details TBD] If you've ever felt like you're climbing toward some version of peace that's always just out of reach, this episode is for you.

    Episode 261: Summer, Slowing Down & The Truth About Rest Without Guilt

    🎙️ EPISODE 261 — Summer, Slowing Down & The Truth About Rest Without Guilt Summer has a way of making us feel like we should be doing more. More memories.More adventures.More productivity.More progress. And yet, for many women, summer arrives and brings something else entirely: exhaustion, overwhelm, and guilt for wanting to slow down. In this episode, we're having an honest conversation about rest, reflection, and why slowing down isn't something you need to earn. We explore: Why summer is not a performance seasonThe hidden guilt many women feel when they aren't constantly producingHow to recognize what is draining your energyThe importance of reflection before actionWhy information without implementation keeps us stuckHow to stop postponing the changes you already know need to happenChoosing alignment over pressure this season This episode is also a reminder that growth doesn't always come from adding more to your plate. Sometimes growth comes from paying attention. From listening. From being honest with yourself. And from finally responding to what life has already been trying to show you. Because you are not behind. You are in a season. And this summer may be inviting you to slow down long enough to hear what comes next.
