Most leadership training skips this part. Dysregulated people get dysregulated results. Regulated people get radiant lives.
I'm Becca Powers—strategic sales leader, nervous system leadership expert, and USA TODAY bestselling author.

On the inside, I was crumbling.

Episode 30: How Self-Awareness is the Key to Self-Empowerment with Michelle Pfile
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In a world where societal pressure and external influences can sway us from our true path, it's unfortunately common to lose sight of who we truly are and what matters to us.
Self-awareness serves as a path towards self-empowerment. It acts as a valuable tool that enables us to distinguish between what people expect of us and what is true for us. Through this, we learn the wisdom and gain perspectives necessary to make healthy choices and align our actions with our values. It empowers us to take full responsibility for our own growth and well-being which allows us to navigate life's journey with authenticity and purpose.
In this episode, we are joined by Michelle Pfile, a health, wellness, and business mentor, and podcast host who helps women create positive changes by elevating them physically, mentally, spiritually, and financially. She shares with us how self-awareness serves as the ultimate key to self-empowerment, and the significance of taking the time to slow down, listen to our inner wisdom, and get clear on what holds true importance in our lives.
Michelle encourages us to embrace life's transitions, such as perimenopause, with grace and resilience, and to make mindful and healthy choices for our well-being.
