Hi, I’m Meaghan Shaffer and when my perfectly curated, “normal” life blew up and took my standard list of check boxes with it, I re-evaluated everything, stopped hustling for my worth and found freedom in coloring outside the lines. Join me for authentic, curious conversations that unravel the baggage, bias and distance our perceptions of normal create. Let’s find out what happens when we stop being normal and start being real.

18: Too Much of a Good Thing | Meaghan
Hello again! It has been a while. Too long? Too short? Or just the right amount of time? Byron Katie would say the latter. ANY-hoo…I’ve been wracking my brain over the last couple of months in terms of what to do with this podcast. I no longer have the time I used to thanks to...

16: Why We Chose to Homeschool | Elizabeth

15: Becoming A Serial Entrepreneur | Wayne

14: Embracing Our Feely Selves | Nōn
Does anyone else have an issue being honest about how they are? About naming their feelings? Even just being honest with yourself. I have this knee jerk idea that I need to be fine. Always fine; have everything always handled. I don’t know where it comes from, but that isn’t normal. The full rainbow of...

13: What Does It Mean to be Human? | Jen
This is the first episode I’ve released since I took my break! And I thought it only fitting that it was a conversation with my mentor, New York Times bestselling author of On Being Human, Jen Pastiloff, the woman who inspired me and pushed me and fueled my spirit with what I needed to start...

Wow
It feels like Meaghan crawled into my heart and pulled out all those yucky feelings that hide in the shadows and need to be seen. I cried, laughed and felt so many feelings (all before my morning coffee btw!). I absolutely loved everything she had to say and how she delivers her message helps you feel that you aren’t alone. Thank you Meaghan!
