    #6 - Lindsey Kaupp | The Hidden Cost of Always Proving Yourself

    She spent years helping people heal while silently believing her own pain was normal. In this conversation, Lindsay Kelp opens up about the hidden connection between pelvic health, nervous system regulation, motherhood, identity, and high performance. What starts as a conversation about pelvic floor therapy quickly becomes something much deeper. A raw look at how many ambitious people normalize suffering while constantly trying to prove themselves. Lindsay shares what it was like living with pain for over a decade without realizing it was treatable, opening her clinic three months postpartum, and navigating the emotional weight of being both a caregiver and a high achiever. Together, we unpack why “common” does not mean “normal,” how nervous system patterns shape burnout and behavior, and why so many people lose themselves while chasing success. This episode is honest, uncomfortable, grounding, and deeply human. If you’ve ever felt exhausted from carrying pressure nobody else could see, this conversation will stay with you.

    #5 - Shane Cyr | When Showing Up Became Too Heavy

    He was the one everyone counted on. And it came at a cost. Shane Cyr grew up learning that being dependable meant being valued. Raised by a single mom with an absent father, he stepped into responsibility early. Leader. Athlete. The guy who never dropped the ball. But when he lost a starting role at ten years old, something shifted. He didn’t slow down. He pushed harder. That drive followed him into adulthood. Success in business. Respect from others. But underneath it, something felt off. “I didn’t feel like I had a lot of purpose.” In this episode, Shane opens up about pressure, people pleasing, and the quiet weight of shame he carried for years. Through therapy, self-awareness, and showing up more honestly, he’s beginning to redefine what it means to lead and live. If you’ve ever felt like you had to hold it all together for everyone else, this conversation will hit home. Join the conversation inside BILD What Matters.

    #2 - Katie Faloon-Drew | When Doing It All Breaks You: A Habit Change Experts Wake Up Call

    Katie Faloon‑Drew built a life that checked every box: degrees, marriage, kids, a safe government job, the house with the white picket fence.  She didn’t realize she was drowning until she broke. After years of chasing “I’ll be happy when,” she hit a full mental breakdown that left her unable to function and terrified to ask for time off. Therapy, medication, and energy work pulled her out. She rebuilt slowly, learning that confidence isn’t a look; it’s a habit. Katie now coaches high achievers through habit change rooted in values, not shame. Then June hit. A virus, relentless output, and “good stress” sent her to the Heart Institute with what they first called a heart attack. The message landed: slow down or be forced down. Today, she teaches a new truth: your brain wants safety, your body keeps the score, and you can rewrite your patterns one small choice at a time. What feeling are you actually chasing? 00:00 The moment she admits she was drowning 03:10 “I checked every box” 12:40 Why weight‑loss goals fail 20:15 Naming your brain: Meet “Brandi” 32:00 When everything fell apart (the June scare) 44:30 Energy work and intuition 54:10 One piece of advice for anyone struggling Leave a review to be entered into a weekly draw and win a copy of Alex Hormozi's Money Models Book!  Are you overwhelmed in your business?

    #1 - Victoria Cluney | From Numb to Honest: Taking Off The Mask

    Why start now?  Because hiding hurts. After a two‑day healing retreat, I posted an 11‑minute video and pressed record on Episode 1. I’m done with fluff. I talk about the beach‑ball feelings I tried to hold down, the therapy that turned them into words, and the moment someone asked if I had “trauma” for walking away from an 80/20 white‑label deal. I chose autonomy. I chose values. I share my WILER code (wisdom from adversity, integrity over opportunity, lead with impact, extreme ownership, relentless execution) and set the tone for this show: depth over posturing.  If you want leaders who can pull back the curtains, reveal the mess and how they still keep moving forward, you're home. Join the conversation inside BILD What Matters. Some key takeaways: How to name the shutdown: calm can be numb. Choose values when opportunity tests you. Build your own platform if autonomy matters. Why I use WILER to drive all hard calls. Own your role; expect the same from others. Execute relentlessly: press record, refine, repeat. 0:00 Why I pressed record today 02:10 When the beach balls popped up 05:00 “I couldn’t pretend anymore” 08:20 The WILLER code explained 12:30 When everything fell apart (values vs deal) 16:10 What this podcast will stand for 18:40 How to leave a review and enter the draw BILD What Matters explores Business, Impact, and Life by Design.
