Welcome to the WANTcast: The Women Against Talk Podcast -lessons in moving forward fearlessly, and spreading the (good) word. In each episode, writer, speaker, coach and WANT founder Katie Horwitch unpacks tips, tools, motivation and inspiration to help you shift your self-talk: the internal narrative you have on loop 24/7 that tells you who you are and who you should be. You can't change the world until you change YOUR world, first - and shifting your self-talk is where it all begins. Dive into topics such as confidence, fear, trust, body image, self-doubt, self-worth, relationships, career, friendships, social issues, and more. Walk away from each episode with hyper-actionable steps to shift your self-talk from reactive to proactive, as well as inspiration to keep going when the going gets tough. The goal isn't to change who you are - it's to BECOME who you know you're meant to be.

163: How The Heck To Find A Literary Agent (and get a book deal!)
To get a book deal with a publishing house, you need to have a literary agent. But how do you find a literary agent? Where do you begin, and what should you look for? Is any agent better than no agent — and any deal a foot in the door of the publishing industry?
In Part 2 of this 3-part behind-the-scenes book publishing series, we're diving into the nitty-gritty of the agent-finding process, the agent-partnering process, and ultimately securing a book deal with a publisher.
We'll talk EXACT details on how to get started, how Katie (hi!) ultimately found her agent, and the plot twist that ended up leading to the book deal that was always meant to be.
(And, don't be fooled: this episode is really just a big life lesson in disguise :))

161: From Burnt Out To Lit Up with Amanda Baudier + Rebecca Stump of Full Plate Full Cup
You've probably heard (or used) the term "burnout" before...but what's actually going on when you're burnt out, and how can you turn it around? Or maybe even prevent it from happening in the first place? Do you need to hit certain marks for it to qualify as "burnout" vs. general blah-ness? Why are we all so spent???
Today’s guests are Amanda Baudier and Rebecca Stump, the co-founders of Full Plate Full Cup, an educational platform and boutique consultancy on a mission to help individuals and teams become wildly happy — and wildly successful. They bring over 35 years of combined leadership experience and numerous wellness certifications to all they do, from coaching executives 1:1 to hosting their podcast, also titled, Full Plate Full Cup.
IN THIS EPISODE WE TALK ABOUT:
how to recognize burnout in a really easy-to-understand way why more on your plate doesn’t necessarily equal more burnout (and less equal less) how to set ruthless boundaries (including friendship boundaries) how to distinguish between what is necessary and what you can let go of how to start to go from burnt out to lit up And more!

160: On FOMO, JOMO, and No MO (Season 8 Finale!)
Summer is the time for sunshine, longer days, and...an oddly large amount of FOMO potential???
The idea of how we "should be" spending our time exists throughout the year...but between vacation pics on Instagram, social invites, and ideas instilled in us at a young age about what the "perfect summer" looks like, the feelings of FOMO — Fear Of Missing Out — might be bubbling up for you extra hard right now.
In this episode, we talk about:
Why summertime is a hotbed for comparison and negative self-talk Why "vacation" is a loaded word for a lot of us How to rethink the opposite of FOMO — no "MO" necessary Katie's quest for what we're gonna call JO-BO ...and more, on this Season 8 Finale!

159: Doing Hard Things
When we do things that are hard...what are we REALLY doing? And how are we doing them?
In this episode, we're diving head-first into the topic of DOING HARD THINGS, and how to keep yourself in check and focused on growth (versus unintentionally keeping yourself stuck and small). Katie shares a conversation she and Jeremy had recently about being courageous in their own lives, and how you can refresh your approach to hard things in your life too.

Customer Reviews
Practical and Brilliant
Katie provides simple tools that support women in all stages of their lives, applicable to relationships, careers, dreams and goals. Practical steps are easier to implement when so many of us are busy and distracted, planning to “do better” when we get some free time. Thank you, Katie, for being a strong voice for women.
Engaging, informative, and a FUN listen!
Katie is absolutely gifted at interviewing and storytelling. Her energy is infectious, and I always leave episodes feeling invigorated about my life and my potential. Exactly the pick-me-up we all could use from a podcast BFF. Can’t recommend enough!
So refreshing!
Loved the most recent episode (love is a verb) where the guests talked about how you can learn to love yourself and someone else at the same time. It was such an insightful and refreshing take to something we hear all the time!
