IMPACT

My Next Big Act & Goodbye For Now with Dr. Meghan Walker

Brace yourselves! This episode of IMPACT unveils a seismic decision that will shake the very foundation of Meghan’s world. In this episode, Meghan shares her realization that to take things to a much bigger level of impact, there are things she needs to let go of blindly.  There are things she needs to let go of not necessarily knowing what is on the other side because they are tethering her from the full view.  Moving to the next level is not about harder work, it's about harder decisions. Meghan believes that to lead other people, we have to be willing to lead ourselves not just with our voice, but with our actions. So with that in mind, Meghan has decided to take a sabbatical from the IMPACT Podcast.  She is committed to making huge leaps on an emotional level, on a financial level, and on a ‘potential for failure’ level because her vision for impact is huge. Life is less about what you do, more about how you make people feel, and everything about how you choose to show up in the world. But fear not, as Meghan clarifies this sabbatical is not a goodbye in any way. This is not the end of the show, this is the end of act one. Meghan's fearless choice will compel you to examine your life through a lens of unwavering clarity and empower you to release anything that no longer serves your future. Hit play now to embrace the changes needed for your next chapter, your next act.    KEY TAKEAWAYS [01:04] Reflection on Ted Lasso and the power of knowing when to move on [04:45] Exploring the benefits of personal coaching [10:01] Reflections on letting go and moving forward [16:30] Closing this act   HOW TO CONNECT WITH DR. MEGHAN WALKER MeghanWalker.com [https://meghanwalker.com/about/] @drmeghanwalker [https://www.instagram.com/drmeghanwalker/] MEMORABLE QUOTES   “We are walking into the intermission, and one of the things I'll invite you to do is maybe regroup yourself, grab a drink, stretch your legs, but know that the story is not over.”    -Dr. Meghan Walker   “And so this is an act of personal leadership. That may or may not inspire you to take similar actions in your own life and in your own world. I'm excited for this next step.”    -Dr. Meghan Walker   “I'd love for this to be a moment where you two look at your life with ruthless clarity and confidence and acknowledge the things that may not be serving the next chapter, the next act."    -Dr. Meghan Walker   “I have a vision for how I want to live my own life and it is not constantly pushed up against the wall. And I've worked really hard to create certain freedoms in my life and yet I engage in an ongoing manner in the behaviors that keep me pushed there.”    -Dr. Meghan Walker “I have committed six and a half years, 327 episodes of conversations. It has been an enabler of ticket sales and traffic and growth of my clinical practice. It has been a launching ground for new programs and new phases of my life. It is also at a place where I feel like I can tie a beautiful bow on this experience, that I can look at this podcast with immense gratitude for what it has brought into my life.”   -Dr. Meghan Walker

The good girl will never be happy. The good girl will never have self-respect. The good girl will never have self-love. The good girl will never permeate with lush abundant femininity, because they are directly opposite, so the good girl is never going to be happy, and she doesn’t know how to cope with it, so she tries to make it someone else's fault.”    -Geeta Sidhu-Robb    “The one thing I want everybody to think about is that actually the control to change this is in your hands. It's a hundred percent in your hands. Because if you take responsibility for being appalling, then I want you to take responsibility for the fact that you can change that as well. You must. You can't take responsibility for one and not the other.” -Geeta Sidhu-Robb    “The fear of these things will not stop bad things happening to you. So if they're gonna happen, why don't you just have control over your own life instead?” -Geeta Sidhu-Robb

Talking On Eggshells - How To Handle Even the Most Challenging Conversations with Grace and Poise with Sam Horn

Do you have the tools to navigate sensitive topics with wisdom and discernment? Navigating uncomfortable situations takes foresight and a willingness to accept how your words IMPACT the outcome of each of your engagements.     On this episode of IMPACT,  Sam Horn joins us for a second round of linguistic wisdom as she breaks down her framework for navigating difficult conversations from her book: Talking on Eggshells. She teaches you how to pause a situation so that you can interact with wisdom, grace, and presence.    The first thought that pops into your head does not always lead to a positive outcome. Sam shows you how to flip the script and shift from shaming to shaping behavior with critical thinking, personal responsibility, and empathy.     Interrupting communication patterns is hard, but Sam’s framework helps you master proactive grace and conscious language. Sometimes wisdom means knowing what topics are off limits so you can focus on commonalities instead of frivolous conflicts.

And, as the Harvard study found, the number one precursor of a healthy, happy life is good relationships.” -Sam Horn   “We want to turn fight, flight and freeze into flow so that in the moment we can say something that helps instead of hurts.” -Sam Horn   “We're not taught this in school. We're taught math, we're taught history and science, you know, we're taught calculus, you know, are we taught what to say when we don't know what to say? Are we taught what to do when someone's blaming us for something that's not our fault? Are we taught what to do when people are complaining and won't stop and listen? No, we're not taught this.” -Sam Horn
