227. Less Efficient. More Alive.

Join my email list HERE!Follow me on Instagram @bauer.ftwYou can WATCH this episode on YouTube HERE! In this Wednesday in the Wild episode, Megan shares a quiet realization that stopped her in her tracks: her default setting of efficiency might be costing her more than she realized. Wired to optimize time, energy, and logistics, Megan reflects on how choosing the fastest or most productive option often overrides what would actually feel good, meaningful, or enjoyable in the moment. Through everyday examples, she explores the tension between structure and flow — and why discernment matters more than choosing one side of the spectrum. This episode is an invitation to notice your own default tendencies and ask whether they’re truly serving you in this season. In this episode, we explore: How efficiency can quietly become the highest priority The difference between being productive and actually enjoying life Why discernment matters more than rigid rules When structure supports your life — and when it drains it How small choices shape your daily experience Finding a more intentional balance between discipline and ease Growth isn’t about abandoning efficiency — it’s about learning when to loosen your grip and choose what truly serves the moment.

You can find the podcast website HERE! In this episode, Megan breaks down one of the most misunderstood ideas in personal growth: the difference between achieving a goal once and creating a result that lasts. Using stories from her own decade-long struggle with habits, conversations about weight loss, creativity, and daily routines, she reveals why consistency alone isn’t enough — and why habits are the real engine behind sustainable change. This episode reframes habits not as rigid or boring, but as quiet systems that work in the background, removing the need for willpower, discipline, or constant decision-making. When a habit is fully installed, it doesn’t require force — it simply runs. And that’s when results move to autopilot. You’ll learn why most goals fail after the initial push, how habits become part of your identity, and what it actually takes to build a habit that supports the life you want to live — not just once, but over and over again. You’ll learn: The difference between a one-time goal and a lifestyle result Why consistency alone won’t create lasting change How habits quietly do the work for you once they’re established Why willpower and discipline are temporary tools — not long-term solutions How identity-based habits make results feel effortless Why maintaining results is easier than chasing them What it really means to put results on autopilot Why habits may be boring — but what they create is anything but This episode is a powerful reminder that if you want a result to last, you don’t need more motivation — you need the habit underneath that makes it inevitable.

224. The World Needs You Ready

Join my email list HERE!Follow me on Instagram @bauer.ftwYou can WATCH this episode on YouTube HERE! In this episode of Wednesday in the Wild, Megan reflects on the heaviness of the world right now — the loud, tragic moments that dominate the media — and offers a grounded reminder of why personal growth actually matters more in times like these, not less. Megan connects the often-overlooked link between self-development and real-world impact, explaining how courage practiced in small, daily moments prepares us to act with integrity and strength when it truly counts. Becoming who you are meant to be isn’t selfish — it’s preparation. It’s how you become ready to stand up, speak up, and serve as a force for good when you’re called. This episode is both a call to responsibility and an encouragement: you may not know exactly how or when you’ll make an impact, but by living courageously, managing your inner world, and treating others well, you create ripples that extend far beyond what you can see. You’ll learn: Why personal development is not separate from creating real-world change How courage practiced in daily life prepares you for bigger moments What it means to be “ready” when opportunity or responsibility calls Why you can only ever control your thoughts, emotions, and actions — and why that’s enough How your example influences others, even when you don’t realize it Why becoming your best self is a responsibility, not a luxury How to view yourself as a tool for good — and why it’s your job to maintain it The power of living as a visible example of courage, integrity, and humanity This episode is a reminder that the way you live your everyday life matters — because when you choose courage, growth, and integrity now, you’re shaping the impact you’ll be ready to make when it matters most.

222. The Worry Hole

Join my email list HERE!Follow me on Instagram @bauer.ftwYou can WATCH this episode on YouTube HERE! You can find the podcast website HERE! In this episode, Megan explores the habit of worry — how easily we fall into it, why it feels productive even when it isn’t, and how much of our lives it quietly steals from us. Sparked by a simple question on a billboard and a candid moment with her husband, Megan reflects on years of worrying — from new motherhood to everyday decisions — and the realization that worry is often optional. Rather than aiming to never worry again, this episode focuses on learning how to crawl out of the “worry hole” faster. Megan shares practical tools, personal stories, and mindset shifts to help you recognize worry for what it is: a thought loop that feels helpful but rarely is. She also draws a clear distinction between worry and anxiety, offering guidance on how to work with each differently. This episode is an invitation to reclaim the present moment — to stop letting worry rob you of the life you’re living right now — and to choose trust, action, or release instead. You’ll learn: Why worry feels productive even though it doesn’t actually help The difference between worry (thought-based) and anxiety (body-based) How to name your worry so it stops feeling overwhelming The simple question that helps you turn worry into action When to solve the problem — and when to let it go How inaction fuels worry and action weakens it A journaling prompt to break out of mental loops A practical ritual for releasing worries you can’t control How to enjoy the present without needing certainty about the future This episode is a reminder that worry may feel automatic, but it’s a choice — and every time you choose action, trust, or release instead, you reclaim the moment you’re living right now.

221. This Side of Breakthrough

Join my email list HERE!Follow me on Instagram @bauer.ftwYou can WATCH this episode on YouTube HERE! In this Wednesday in the Wild episode, Megan shares an in-the-moment insight that came straight from her journal — a different way of thinking about breakthroughs. Most of us focus on what’s waiting on the other side of a breakthrough: success, confidence, impact, growth. But in this episode, Megan flips the lens and asks a quieter, more confronting question: what has to be left behind? From limiting beliefs and outdated habits to identities that no longer fit, she explores why breakthroughs aren’t just about adding more — they’re about releasing what can’t coexist with who you’re becoming. This episode invites you to stop fixating on the version of you you’re trying to reach — and instead get honest about the version of you that can’t come with you. You’ll reflect on: Why focusing only on “the other side” of a breakthrough can feel overwhelming How familiarity keeps us attached to identities we’ve outgrown The hidden cost of holding onto beliefs and habits that no longer fit Why growth requires subtraction, not just addition What it really means to make space for who you’re becoming One small belief, habit, or pattern you might be ready to release This is a quiet but powerful reframe: you don’t have to fully believe in who you’re becoming yet — you just have to be willing to let go of what can’t coexist with her.
