The Answers Aren't in Your Head: What Your Body Already Knows with Miranda Holder

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2564085/fan_mail/new] Many of us have been taught to think our way through every decision. We analyze. We plan. We seek advice. We overthink. But what if the answers aren't in our heads at all? In this episode, Alicia sits down with Miranda Holder, leadership and career coach, founder of Holder Leadership, and creator of the Embodied Intelligence Method™. Together, they explore how to access the wisdom that lives beyond logic and analysis, why so many high achievers feel stuck despite knowing what they want, and how reconnecting with the body can create clarity, confidence, and alignment. Miranda shares her own journey from Division I rowing coach and Head Coach at Georgetown University to leadership coach, along with the lessons that helped her navigate burnout, identity shifts, and career reinvention. You'll learn how to distinguish intuition from fear, why your body often knows before your mind does, and how to access the deeper wisdom already available within you. Miranda also guides listeners through a powerful somatic exercise designed to help you gain clarity on an important decision in your own life. If you've ever felt successful on paper but sensed there was something more waiting for you, this conversation is for you.

Navigating Uncertainty and Living Unscripted with Sheila Eggert

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2564085/fan_mail/new] Navigating Uncertainty & Living Unscripted with Sheila Eggert What if uncertainty wasn’t something to fear, but an invitation to become more of who you truly are? Alicia Dee sits down with transformational leadership coach & consultant, author, and TEDx speaker Sheila Eggert to explore living “unscripted,” beyond expectations and the roles we’ve been taught to play. Sheila shares her path of reinvention, leaving corporate life, navigating divorce and a breast cancer diagnosis, and following an inner knowing that led her to begin again. Together they discuss meeting challenges with curiosity instead of fear, and how transformation begins when we trust ourselves. In This Episode, You’ll Discover: • Fear vs. intuition – Fear is loud and urgent; intuition is quiet and steady. • Why familiar feels safe – Even when it no longer fits, the brain prefers what it knows. • Curiosity as a doorway – Shift from “Why is this happening to me?” to “What am I meant to learn?” • Nervous system support – Change begins with feeling safe enough to listen. • Releasing old identities – Stepping out of scripts written by family, culture, and career. • Healing and meaning – Choosing openness over resistance in life’s hardest moments. • Small aligned steps – Transformation grows through consistent micro-choices. Key Takeaways •  You are not your thoughts, you are the observer who can choose them. •  Real safety comes from authenticity, not control. •  Challenges can become portals for growth when met with curiosity. •  Rest and self-care are strategies for resilience and leadership. •  The deeper question is not “What should I do?” but “Who am I becoming?” Curious about working with ThriveWorthy?  If this conversation stirred something in you, you don’t have to navigate it alone.   Book a complimentary Career Clarity Call now: https://calendly.com/alicia-thriveworthy/30min We’ll talk about where you are now and what you desire next.
