No One Is Coming to Save Me: Uncovering & Releasing the Limiting Belief That Was Running My Life

No One Is Coming to Save Me: Uncovering & Releasing the Limiting Belief That Was Running My Life

If you've been carrying everything and calling it strength — this one's for you. One ordinary Sunday, the universe handed me the same message three times in under an hour. I almost missed it — in fact, I did miss it at first, recognizing it as a limiting belief in everyone but myself. It took one gentle question from a friend to crack it open. First came grief. Then rage. And underneath it all was a belief I've quietly carried my whole adult life: no one is coming to save me, so I have to save myself. In this episode, I share: * How the universe sent me the same message three times in one afternoon — and how I almost walked right past it * The question that brought me to grief, then rage — and why that emotion was the clue * The three limiting beliefs hiding underneath my overwhelm * How to gently uncover your own and the two types (one harder to find, one harder to release) * My simple, no-pressure process for letting a belief go * The to-do list I handed my husband (and the unclogged shower that proved it was working 😂) Here's the heart of it: releasing limiting beliefs doesn't have to be hard. It's about staying curious — the breadcrumbs are always there. If you've been carrying way more than you were ever meant to, calling it strength when really it's been exhaustion — hear this: you don't have to do it alone. And if your soul's been craving space to set it all down, come join me inside Come Back to Yourself, a 90-minute virtual experience for women who've cared for everyone else so long they've lost touch with themselves.

Entrepreneur Like a Mother with the Female Mavericks

If you've ever felt like ambition and motherhood are pulling you in opposite directions — this episode is going to change something in you. I sat down with Beth and Victoria, the powerhouse duo behind Female Mavericks, and I walked away from this conversation feeling both fired up and deeply seen. Between them, they've founded three companies, successfully exited two for seven plus figures, and raised nine kids while doing it. And they did it without pretending the mom part didn't exist. What struck me most? They're not here to tell you that you can do it. They're here to show you how. In this episode, we dig into: * Why the word "balance" doesn't exist in a mom entrepreneur's vocabulary — and what to focus on instead * The five power moves from their upcoming book Entrepreneur Like a Mother — including the Mommy Mayhem Matrix, the Kitchen Cabinet, and the Freedom Number Calculator * Why women are perfectionists who over-build their product before ever selling it — and how to break that pattern * How entrepreneurship actually gave them more flexibility than corporate ever did * The mindset shift that kept them going through the hard seasons: motherhood is not your kryptonite — it's your superpower * Why your best connectors aren't at stuffy networking events — they're in the pickup line * And the glitter grams they've been mentally writing to their haters for years 😂 This is the conversation I wish I'd had years ago. And if you're a mom who's been quietly wondering whether the dream is still possible — it is. You just need the right framework.

It's Not an Octopus, It's a Fish

Some weeks hand you a lot. A 12-hour road trip. A wedding full of people you love. Emotions you can't quite name. And a body that's just... done. This episode is a little different. It's more of an experience than a typical conversation — and it starts in the dark, with a candle, and a shower. In this solo episode, Alicia shares two simple practices that helped her process an unexpectedly emotional weekend: a "dark shower" she'd never heard of until it showed up on her Instagram feed, and 10 minutes of journaling that turned an octopus of feelings into something she could actually hold. We talk about: * What a dark shower is and why it works * The journaling technique that gives clarity, permission, and two good cries in under 10 minutes * Why suppressing emotions takes more energy than expressing them * Why nervous system regulation doesn't have to be a whole thing If you've ever gone to bed hoping sleep would resolve your feelings — and woken up to find them still there — this one's for you.

Wonder Over Worry: Releasing the Grip and Trusting the Flow with Cara Nance

What if the answer to "how is this all going to work out" isn't more planning — it's more trust? In this episode, Alicia sits down with Cara Nance, Gallup Certified Strengths Coach, founder of Tutum Leadership Coaching, and host of the Tutum Talk podcast, for a conversation that feels less like an interview and more like a deep exhale. Cara and Alicia talk about what it really means to follow your inner knowing when the noise around you is loud, why your logical brain can't map the next chapter of your life (and what to do instead), and the simple but powerful mindset shift — wonder over worry — that just might change the way you move through uncertainty. If you've been waiting to feel ready, second-guessing your next step, or quietly wondering if there's something more for you — this one's for you, mama. In this episode we cover: * Trusting your intuition over outside opinions * Building self-trust while you're still becoming  * Why being confused might mean you're right on track  * The energy of surrender vs. the grip of fear * Who to share your dreams with (and who to keep them from) EPISODE RESOURCES Connect with Cara: * 6 in 6 Mastermind: Learn More  [https://af90f1ac.streak-link.com/C1RSgUczs5vf8YUgugHIq2-d/https%3A%2F%2Fwww.tutumleadershipcoaching.com%2Fmastermind-registration] * Website: TutumTeadershipCoaching.com [https://www.tutumleadershipcoaching.com/] * Instagram:@tutumleadershipcoaching [https://www.instagram.com/tutumleadershipcoaching/?hl=en] * LinkedIn: @CaraNance [https://www.linkedin.com/in/caranance/] * YouTube: Watch her channel here [https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKmsTWxY_UoJzgEUu-s6skg] Connect with Alicia: * Come Home To Yourself: A Guided Group Experience: Grab Your Spot [https://dreamstrategysession.my.canva.site/come-back-to-yourself-virtual-event] * Instagram: @a.s.grantham [https://www.instagram.com/a.s.grantham/]
