Our voice is Compassionate Action: We get real about why we scroll (it's a coping mechanism, not a moral failing) and then we share the "get it done" fix. Each week, we explore the "6 Whys"—like Imposter Syndrome, Overwhelm, and Exhaustion —and the 'unfancy' systems to overcome them. This podcast is The Hub (The "Why").

  1. Dealing With Judgement (Part 2): Forging Your Armor | The Rhonda Lavoie Podcast Ep. 8

    Dealing With Judgement (Part 2): Forging Your Armor | The Rhonda Lavoie Podcast Ep. 8

    Let's be honest: criticism stings. We're wired for connection, so the fear of being judged is a powerful (and totally human) trigger. How often does that feeling make you "just check your phone for a minute," only to look up 45 minutes later wondering where the time went? You're not scrolling because you lack willpower; you're scrolling to escape a feeling. That's a normal response, not a personal failing. In this episode (Part 2 of our series on judgment), we move from the "them problem" to the practical fix: Forging Your Armor. I'll share Dr. Brené Brown's "arena" strategy and explain why you must stop taking feedback from people in the "cheap seats". We'll build a complete system to build real resilience, including how to identify your "Success Squad" and implement three daily skills: adopting a growth mindset , using the "Tuesday Rule" for self-compassion , and a simple CBT tool to finally silence your inner critic. Tired of this feeling? You're not alone. I'm building a tool to help you notice that pattern and get your power back. Join the 'Paced' app waitlist. Link in bio. In This Episode: [00:01:40] - Why the common advice to 'just ignore the haters' is useless (and why we're wired to care) [00:02:33] - The "Cheap Seats vs. The Arena": Why you must stop taking criticism from people who aren't being brave [00:04:09] - How to build your "Success Squad"—the small group of people who have earned the right to give you feedback [00:07:41] - The direct link between feeling judged and unconsciously scrolling to escape the feeling [00:10:11] - System 1: Flip the script with a growth mindset (a failure only exists if you quit) [00:11:49] - System 2: Practice self-compassion with the "Tuesday Rule" [00:12:41] - System 3: A simple CBT tool to challenge your inner critic [00:14:58] - Recap & Your Weekly Challenge Resources Mentioned: Dr. Brené Brown (researcher and author) The Paced App TUF Collaborative Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) This Week's Challenge: Identify your "Success Squad". Take out a single sticky note and write down the names of the only people whose opinions truly matter—the ones who are in the arena with you and have earned the right to give you feedback. This is your "square squad". For the next week, when you feel a wave of criticism, look at that list and ask: "Is this voice on my note?" If not, it's irrelevant noise from the cheap seats. 🔗 CONNECT WITH RHONDA Website: rhondalavoie.com Instagram: @rhonda.lavoie Facebook: Rhonda Lavoie TikTok:@ rhonda.lavoie Follow the Paced App journey: getpaced.app Music for The Rhonda Lavoie Podcast: "Sunny Days" by Jimmy Gunnarsson via Descript. #FearOfJudgment #ImposterSyndrome #BreneBrown #Resilience #AvoidantCoping

    Dealing With Judgment (Part 1): Before You Fear Their Judgment, Face Your Own | The Rhonda Lavoie Podcast Ep. 7

    The fear of judgment keeps too many amazing people playing small. In Part 1 of this two-part series, Rhonda Lavoie gets brutally honest about the times she was the judge, teaching you the system of Self-Analysis. You'll learn why that frustrating, neutral reaction to your biggest ambitions—like the Paced App—is a "Them Problem," a reflection of their own baggage and fear, not a verdict on your worth. In This Episode (Video Timestamps): (00:10) - The primal reason we fear judgment: Your anxiety is just your primal survival instinct at work. (01:50) - The framework: Why stepping into The Arena means criticism is a certainty. (02:30) - The hard truth: Why your own internal criticism is the root of the Them Problem. (03:23) - Failure 1 (Upward Comparison): Rhonda's unfiltered "What could you write a book about?" moment. (04:56) - Failure 2 (Fear of Loss): The internal battle when a friend joined the competition. (06:33) - Let's Make This Real: The 30-second self-analysis challenge.(07:08) - The Passive Them Problem: Why the Paced App conversations "fall flat". (08:37) - Rhonda's self-analysis: The 5 reasons for the neutral reaction (Intimidation, Envy, Fixed Mindset, etc.). (11:49) - The Lesson: Understanding their Anchor and seeing criticism as "mere data" about their internal state. (13:35) - Tease for Part 2: Forging Your Armor and curating whose opinion matters. Resources Mentioned: This episode discusses concepts related to Dr. Brené Brown's work on vulnerability and The Man in the Arena. Follow the Paced App journey: getpaced.app. This Week's Challenge: The next time you criticize someone else's big dream, stop and ask yourself: "What insecurity of mine is this reflecting?" 🔗 CONNECT WITH RHONDA Website: rhondalavoie.com Instagram: @rhonda.lavoie Facebook: Rhonda Lavoie TikTok: @rhonda.lavoie Check out the Paced App: getpaced.app Music for The Rhonda Lavoie Podcast: "Sunny Days" by Jimmy Gunnarsson via Descript.

    The Other Side of Fear: What If You Actually Succeed? | The Rhonda Lavoie Podcast Ep. 5

    We spend so much time preparing for the fear of failure, but what if the thing holding you back is actually the fear of success? Success means change, new expectations, and leaving the safety of who you've always been. In this vulnerable episode, I share my real-time struggle with what author Gay Hendricks calls the "Upper Limit Problem"—the subconscious ways we sabotage ourselves when we exceed our internal thermostat for success. Using my journey with the Paced app as a real-world example, we'll dissect the four hidden barriers that make us feel "fundamentally flawed" and I'll teach you the 3-step "Success Planning" system I use to fight back. This is the system you need to define your goals, plan for the "good problems" success creates, and finally give yourself permission to evolve. In This Episode: (00:53) - Why the fear of success can be just as paralyzing as the fear of failure. (01:49) - Understanding the "Upper Limit Problem" from Gay Hendricks' book, "The Big Leap". (02:40) - The four hidden barriers that cause us to self-sabotage. (04:26) - My real-time story of hitting my own upper limit with the Paced app. (05:19) - How to fight back with a 3-step system: "Success Planning". (05:53) - Step 1: Define what success really looks like on your own terms. (07:11) - Step 2: Proactively map out your "success problems". (09:34) - Step 3: The most crucial step—giving yourself permission to evolve. (10:37) - Recap & Your Weekly Challenge. Resources Mentioned: "The Big Leap: Conquer Your Hidden Fear and Take Life to the Next Level" by Gay Hendricks. This Week's Challenge: Take one of your big goals, write down what success looks like, and then list three new good problems that success will create. 🔗 CONNECT WITH RHONDA Website: rhondalavoie.com Instagram: @rhonda.lavoie Facebook: Rhonda Lavoie TikTok: @rhonda.lavoie Follow the Paced App journey: getpaced.app Music for The Rhonda Lavoie Podcast: "Sunny Days" by Jimmy Gunnarsson via Descript. #FearOfSuccess #ImposterSyndrome #SelfSabotage #PersonalGrowth #UpperLimitProblem #GettingItDoneKeepingItReal #RhondaLavoiePodcast
