From Survival and Anxiety to Self-Love

Angie Marie

 Have you spent years living in survival mode?  Does anxiety feel like your baseline?  Have you lived a life of people-pleasing, self-abandoning, and staying quiet just     to keep the peace? This podcast is an invitation to pause — and rebuild from awareness. I’m Angie Marie, an Authenticity and Lifestyle Coach and creator of the SoulSet guided self-coaching app. I spent most of my life in survival mode, sacrificing my character and integrity for acceptance and love. I was deeply disconnected from myself and consumed by anxiety until I was forced out of a lifestyle and relationship rooted in narcissism and manipulation. Like many women, I tried surface-level fixes — distractions, overworking, and focusing on the outside — still searching for validation and relief. Everything changed when I surrendered to the hard work of healing. I began facing my past and understanding why I allowed what I once thought was normal. Through building awareness across all areas of my life, I found inner peace, rebuilt self-confidence, developed real self-love, and created a deep connection with God. If you’re ready to reconnect with your true self, stop people-pleasing for validation, and build an identity rooted in confidence and self-love — Grab your hot coffee, your fuzzy blanket, find a soft place to cozy in, and let’s get started.

    Ep. 54 | Chronic Pain? It Might Not be What You think!

    Have you ever experienced chronic pain, tension, or discomfort in your body that just won’t go away… no matter what you do? Maybe you’ve been told it’s stress, aging, inflammation, or even something like artheritis. But what if your body isn’t breaking down… what if it’s holding on? In today’s episode, I’m sharing my personal experience with chronic pain and how I started to understand that my body was holding onto years of stress, trauma, and emotional patterns I thought I had already moved on from. We’re diving into somatic healing—what it is, how it works, and why your body can still feel things long after your mind thinks you’ve healed. You’ll learn: What somatic healing actually means (and why it’s not as “woo” as it sounds)How stress and trauma get stored in the bodyWhy your nervous system may still be reacting to past experiencesCommon areas in the body where tension and emotional patterns show upSimple somatic practices to help release stored stress and reconnect with your bodyThis episode is especially for women who feel: disconnected from their bodystuck in cycles of stress or anxietyfrustrated with chronic tension or painlike they’ve “done the work” but something still feels offBecause healing isn’t just about thinking differently… It’s about learning how to feel, process, and release what your body has been holding onto. If you’re ready to reconnect with your body and understand what it’s been trying to tell you, this episode will open a new level of awareness.

    EP. 53 | Why Am I the Way I Am? The Wake-Up Call Women Have After 40

    There’s something that shifts when you hit your 40s… and no one really talks about it this way. In this episode, I’m sharing from a very personal place—real experiences, hard lessons, and the questions that completely changed how I see myself and my life. As life starts to change—kids getting older, relationships evolving, more space opening up—you’re faced with a choice: distract yourself… or finally slow down and ask the deeper questions. For me, that question was:  “Why am I the way I am?” And that question led me into a level of awareness I never had before. In this episode, I open up about:  Being a people pleaser and how it led to self-abandonment  Why we tolerate more than we should in relationships  The emotional “volcano” that builds when you keep pushing things down  A personal situation from my past that forced me to take responsibility  The patterns I had to face around avoidance, trust, and insecurity  And how faith played a role in helping me see the lesson instead of the problem This is not surface-level. This is real life. Because some people go their entire lives without ever asking themselves these questions… and others use those questions to completely change their life.  WHAT YOU’LL WALK AWAY WITH  A deeper understanding of your own patterns and behaviors  Awareness around where you may be abandoning yourself  A new perspective on emotional reactions and suppressed feelings  Encouragement to stop avoiding and start asking “why”  A reminder that there is a lesson in everything—even the hard seasons  REFLECTION If something in this episode resonated with you, don’t just move on. Sit with it. Ask yourself one question today that you’ve been avoiding… and be honest with the answer.  NEXT STEPS If you’re ready to go deeper into this kind of work and want support, I offer one-on-one coaching where we walk through this together—mind, body, and soul.

    EP. 50 | The Truth About Survival Mode and Weight Loss: Why You're Not Seeing Any Changes

    The Truth About Survival Mode and Weight Loss If you’ve been working out, eating better, and trying to stay consistent—but your body still isn’t changing—this episode will help you understand why. The truth is… it might not be a discipline problem. In this episode, Angie Marie breaks down how living in survival mode impacts your nervous system, hormones, and your body’s ability to lose weight, build muscle, and feel energized.

    EP. 49 | What Living in Mexico Taught Me About Stillness, Faith, and Slowing Down

    What happens when life finally slows down enough for you to hear yourself… and hear God? In this episode, Angie shares a deeply personal reflection on what living in Mexico has been teaching her about stillness, faith, simplicity, and clarity. After spending much of her life in survival mode, constantly moving and striving, this season of life has brought an unexpected gift — the ability to slow down and truly experience the present moment. From an unforgettable encounter with a herd of donkeys in her front yard to peaceful walks along the beach surrounded by pelicans and seabirds, Angie reflects on how nature, community, and faith have helped her reconnect with herself and with God. She also shares how stepping away from distractions, reevaluating her priorities, and simplifying her focus in business and life has created more clarity and direction than ever before. This episode is a reminder that sometimes the answers we’re searching for don’t come from doing more — they come from slowing down enough to listen. In This EpisodeWhat stillness actually feels like after living in survival modeHow moving to Mexico shifted Angie’s perspective on lifeThe kindness and humility she experiences in everyday interactionsWhy slowing down helps bring clarity and directionHow faith and intentional time with God have guided her next stepsThe unexpected lessons found in simplicity and inconvenienceWhy patience is often part of the process when building something meaningfulReflection QuestionsAs Angie wraps up each episode, she shares reflection questions to help create awareness — because awareness is the first step toward growth.

    EP. 48 |10 Signs Your Nervous System Is Dysregulated — And How to Regulate It Back to Safety

    Have you ever felt like you’re constantly on edge, anxious, exhausted, or waiting for the other shoe to drop? In this episode, Angie shares how years of living in survival mode, navigating narcissistic abuse, divorce, chronic stress, and major life transitions led to a dysregulated nervous system that began showing up as inflammation, illness, and physical pain. Many people try to fix their lives by changing what they see on the outside — without realizing that a chronically dysregulated nervous system can quietly affect their health, relationships, confidence, and decision making. Angie breaks down 10 common reasons the nervous system stays dysregulated, including trauma patterns, people pleasing, external validation, lack of structure, unhealthy relationships, and ignoring the body’s signals. If you’ve ever struggled with anxiety, burnout, chronic stress, or healing after narcissistic relationships, this episode will help you understand what may be happening beneath the surface — and what you can start doing to bring your body back into balance. In This Episode • The hidden health effects of a dysregulated nervous system  • How narcissistic abuse and toxic relationships can keep your body in survival mode • Why healing from trauma requires more than external lifestyle changes • 10 reasons your nervous system may be dysregulated • Simple steps you can take to start regulating your body and mind Resources Mentioned SoulSet App A self-guided coaching app designed to help you create balance through the 12 areas of health, release limiting mindsets, and rebuild sustainable habits. 1:1 Coaching Work with Angie personally to create lifestyle changes that support your mental, emotional, and physical health.

    Ep. 47 | Why Consistency Is Hard (And How It Builds Trust, Discipline & Faith)

    Why is it so hard to stay consistent with the habits and goals that matter most to us? In this episode, Angie Marie explores the deeper meaning of consistency, discipline, and showing up, and why these three things are essential for creating real transformation in your life. While discipline helps you make the decision to change, consistency is what actually creates results over time. Through a personal story about competing in a fitness competition, Angie shares how trusting the process and staying consistent—even when results aren’t visible yet—can lead to powerful life changes. This episode dives into the spiritual side of consistency and how showing up daily can build trust in yourself, strengthen discipline rooted in self-respect, and grow faith in the process and in God's plan for your life. If you’ve ever struggled to stay consistent with your health, habits, or personal growth, this conversation will inspire you to recommit to the routines that move your life forward. In This Episode You’ll Learn • Why consistency is harder than motivation • The difference between discipline and consistency • How consistency helps you trust the process • Why discipline is actually an act of self-love • How showing up daily can build faith in yourself and your future Reflection Questions Where in your life are you being called to show up more consistently? What habit would change your life if you stayed committed to it for the next year? What would discipline look like if it came from love instead of punishment? What is one thing you could start showing up for this week that your future self will thank you for?
