Jamie Tedrick-Monroe joins me to talk about what it really means to live and lead with authenticity. From her work as a counselor and life coach to her creative spirit as a tye-dye maker and grandmother, Jamie embodies what it means to show up fully as yourself — no filters, no performance, just presence. Together, we explore how being authentic isn’t about fixing or selling to people — it’s about the freedom to be who you are and allowing that alignment to naturally overflow into your relationships, your work, and your impact. We talk about: The power of vulnerability and how it creates safety and connectionOvercoming imposter syndrome and the fear of being “too much” or “not enough”How judgment and comparison keep us smallHealing the nervous system and finding safety in our bodiesThe difference between being “authentic” and being unkindLeaving fear and shame behind to step into love, unity, and personal truthWhy healing isn’t about rules or perfection — it’s about presence, compassion, and curiosity Jamie reminds us that authenticity invites trust, connection, and transformation — not just for ourselves but for others, too. This episode is a tender reminder that we’re all human, and when we lead with authenticity, we give others permission to do the same.

In this episode of the StephUp Podcast, I sit down with Julie Spark — entrepreneur, author, speaker, consultant, travel agent, and host of the From Slow to Flow podcast. Julie has built her life and business around one central truth: slowing down allows us to truly tune in. Together, we explore what it really means to move from hustle to harmony — to step out of survival mode and into a life that actually fits who you are. Julie shares how slowing down isn’t about doing less, but about doing what truly matters. She reminds us that harmony begins when we learn to listen to the whispers of our soul — to define what we need, what we want, and what brings us peace. We talk about: *The power of pause and mindfulness in everyday life *Recalibrating your nervous system through breathwork, movement, and rest *Why filling your own cup helps you show up fully for others *The beauty of digital detoxing and reclaiming your creativity *Lessons from forest bathing and connecting deeply with nature *How play, perception, and empathetic listening transform relationships Julie also shares stories from her travels and how she embraces a slower rhythm no matter where she is in the world. Her insights are an invitation to soften, to breathe, and to trust that slowing down doesn’t mean you’re falling behind — it means you’re finally catching up to yourself. “The most important thing is to listen to the whispers of your soul. Define what it is that you need and want. That’s what we are meant to do on this planet. Everyone has that purpose.” – Julie SparkListen now to learn how you can step out of the hustle and reclaim your time, your energy, and your harmony. #StephUpPodcast #JulieSpark #SlowLiving #HustleToHarmony #MindfulLiving #Podcast #Wellness #PersonalGrowth #SlowingDown #HarmonyOverHustle #IntentionalLiving Connect with Julie IG: askJulie.spark website: juliespark.com Music: Inspiring Space Coffee by Audio Coffee https://www.audiocoffee.net/ Love the podcast?

Hello my Lovelies! Ep. 21 – Why Growth Feels Unsafe (Even When You're Ready) with Kristen Franey Why does growth sometimes feel scary, even when we know we’re ready for it? In this powerful conversation, I sit down with Kristen Franey—an anti-business coach, personal trainer, and consultant who helps women entrepreneurs deprogram harmful systems and step into their most authentic way of leading, growing, and living. Together, we unpack why stepping into the “next level” often triggers fear, doubt, or nervous system resistance—and how much of that has roots in the cultural, systemic, and even spiritual conditioning we’ve absorbed.  What you’ll hear in this episode: Why growth can feel unsafe, even when you’re prepared for itHow systemic and cultural conditioning fuels feelings of fear, shame, or being “wrong”Why common coaching/manifesting advice often misses the reality of people’s lived experiencesWhat it really means to create safety for yourself as you growThe power of discernment vs. judgment—and how grace shifts everythingWhy your “favourite self” is more empowering than chasing your “best self”How activism and systemic change start within, through small everyday actionsKristen reminds us that growth isn’t about fitting into someone else’s box or following a rigid formula. It’s about peeling back conditioning, listening to your own wisdom, and becoming your most true, favourite self. If you’ve ever felt “ready” for change but still scared to step forward, this conversation will give you language, compassion, and clarity to understand why—and permission to move at your own pace.  Mentioned in this episode: Activist and author Deepa Iyer, who works in intersectional feminist spaces “Be the change. Every day we can choose to engage differently with the systems around us—standing up to control, breaking old conditioning, and becoming quiet revolutionaries in our own way.” - Kristen Franey Connect with Kristen: IG: kristen.franey You can work with Kristen 1:1 She has an intensive, 3 month or 6 month program.  Free things in her bio Kristen has a workbook called "Your Hidden Intentions: - free workbook (Promo code: stephup)  #kristenfraney #stephuppodcast #traumainformed #antibusinesscoach #manifesting #healingwork Music: Inspiring Space Coffee by Audio Coffee https://www.audiocoffee.net/ Love the podcast?

🎙️ Episode 20: Unlocking the Power of Your Voice with Megan Fahlenbock Hello My Lovelies, In this episode, I’m joined by the multi-talented Megan Fahlenbock — actor, voiceover artist, life coach, and founder of MEGAPLAY Coaching. Megan has been inspiring performers and everyday people alike to find their voice, trust their voice, and use their voice with confidence and clarity. We dive into Megan’s journey from starting out in modeling and acting at just 13, to becoming a sought-after voiceover actor and passionate coach. Through her Megaplay Workshops, Megan helps people not only strengthen their craft, but also step into their authentic voice in everyday life. ✨ What You’ll Discover in This Episode: Why finding your voice isn’t just about speaking up — it’s about knowing when not to. How to navigate triggers, dysregulated emotions, and trauma responses (fight, flight, freeze, fawn). The importance of emotional intelligence and holding space for others. How discernment helps us decide when to speak, when to listen, and when to let go. The link between acting, self-awareness, and learning to read the room. Why effective communication is less about “just calm down” and more about learning tools for regulation and empathy. Megan’s powerful advice for unlocking your voice: journaling, self-accountability, forgiveness, and trusting the process. 💡 Megan reminds us that we’re all longing to be seen and heard — and that with practice, patience, and play, we can build the courage and wisdom to use our voices in ways that truly connect.

Episode 19: The Healing Power of Being Fully Heard with Dr. & Pastor Jon Korkidakis What happens when someone truly listens—without judgment, without trying to fix, without shutting you down? In this heartfelt conversation, Dr. & Pastor Jon Korkidakis joins me to talk about the transformative power of being fully heard and what it means to hold space for others. Jon has been a safe presence in my own life, especially when I was deconstructing the faith I was raised in. While others offered judgment and “you shouldn’ts,” Jon simply listened. That act of compassion helped me feel seen, valid, and not alone. In this episode, we explore: What it really means to hold space and listen without judgmentHow self-awareness shapes the way we respond when we’re triggeredThe beauty of “thin spaces”—those sacred Celtic moments where heaven and earth feel closeWhy people in pain don’t need clichés or pat answers, but presence and empathyHow Jesus modeled listening and storytelling instead of quick fixesWhy those deconstructing their faith often feel unseen, and how we can change thatPractical ways to listen more deeply and connect with others Jon reminds us: “Everybody wants to be heard in some way or another. Not fixed. Not corrected. Not rebuked. Just heard.” If you’ve ever longed to feel seen or want to become a better listener for those around you, this conversation will encourage you and offer practical wisdom.

Is it Discomfort or a Sign? Understanding Your Inner Guidance System with Michelle Wollaston In this soulful and insightful episode, I’m joined by Michelle Wollaston — writer, spiritual advocate, and host of The Soul Loom Podcast. Michelle brings a deep and compassionate approach to helping women who’ve spent years over-functioning in roles, relationships, or workplaces that left them feeling invisible. Through her unique blend of grounded coaching and soul-level wisdom, she guides women back to their intuition, voice, and vitality — without spiritual bypassing or burnout. We dive into the concept of the Comfort Meter — Michelle’s way of helping people understand that discomfort is often your intuition trying to speak. Whether it shows up as a subtle whisper or a loud wake-up call, these feelings are often signs from your body, soul, or the universe that something isn’t aligned. We explore how fear, especially the fear of change, can cloud our clarity and how taking small empowered steps can help you move from anxiety into trust. Michelle shares practical tools for tuning in, including reflection prompts, boundary-setting, and learning to recognize patterns that keep repeating until we finally listen. This conversation is all about learning to trust your inner signals — not just in the big, obvious moments, but in the small, quiet nudges too. Michelle reminds us that everything we need is already within us — and that imperfect action, intuitive awareness, and self-compassion are powerful tools for transformation. Key Takeaways: Discomfort is a signal — pay attention to even the small nudges. Taking baby steps builds empowerment and helps you trust your intuition. Boundaries, reflection, and grounding practices keep you aligned with your inner guidance. "Anything that is meant to happen for you, will happen for you seamlessly. And if they don't happen perfectly and there are bumps in the road, what is the bump for? There is usually always a pattern to the bumps." - Michelle Wollaston The book Michelle mentioned: "Women Who Run With the Wolves: Myths and Stories of the Wild Woman Archetype" - by Clarissa Pinkola Estes ⭐ Connect with Michelle: Linktree: https://linktr.ee/michellewollaston Free guides for woman who feel like they’ve lost themselves in the life they built: https://www.michellewollaston.com/stephup-come-home-to-the-woman-within Discount Code for 90 minute 1:1 session with Michelle normally A$247 – enter code at checkout STEPHUP $47 discount.

Hello my Lovelies! How the Tao Te Ching Helps Us Heal: Recovery, Non-Duality & Letting Go with MartinJon Garcia In this deeply reflective and philosophical episode, I’m joined by MartinJon Garcia—Recovery Mentor, author, and host of the Tao of the Day podcast. With over 24 years of sobriety, MartinJon shares how the Tao Te Ching became a transformative tool in his recovery journey. We explore the Tao not as a rigid doctrine, but as an experiential philosophy that invites us into self-awareness, non-duality, and the surrender of certainty. “You are Tao. I am Tao,” he says—reminding us that we all walk unique paths toward understanding, and that true wisdom begins when we admit we don’t know. Together, we reflect on Tao #71 from MartinJon’s own translation —To Know We Don’t Know: To be aware that one does not know is healthy for all things. Avoiding awareness of this is a current plague. By acknowledging you have been infected You can become aware and move toward healing. The Master has cured herself She is aware that she does not know. She is healthy in all aspects. This teaching sparked a powerful discussion about the current "plague" of false certainty, the trap of confirmation bias, and how humility is the gateway to clarity and healing. MartinJon emphasizes that when we let go of needing to be right, we make space for true freedom and transformation. The Tao becomes a lens to live more reasonably—where we no longer try to force others or ourselves to change, but instead surrender to what is and act with awareness. This episode is both grounding and expansive, especially for those navigating healing, recovery, or deconstructing rigid belief systems. If you’ve ever felt discomfort in uncertainty or a deep yearning to live more aligned and present, this conversation offers gentle wisdom, a soft challenge, and a fresh path forward. "When you don't have to do the right thing, you do the thing that's right for you. We have stripped people of their self worth, their faith in themselves and we've all looked to products; the greed that is around us.

Learning to Let Go of Perceptions: Being Intuitive with Lee Walczak In this soulful and honest conversation, I’m joined by intuitive reader, and psychic medium Lee Walczak. Lee shares his journey of discovering his intuitive gifts, learning to tune into energy, and embracing his ability to connect with spirit. Lee opens up about stepping out of fear and into the truth of who he is. We explore what it means to release people-pleasing, let go of limiting perceptions, and live more authentically. Lee reminds us that everything is energy, and that when we shift our focus from fear to love, acceptance, and compassion, we catalyze our own growth and evolution. It’s an encouraging episode for anyone feeling the pull to trust their inner knowing and come home to themselves. "It's important to find that balancing act of not just focusing on things that are fear-based. The fear-based things are going to keep you stuck in that place. If you focus on other things like love, acceptance, compassion. That catalyzes growth and evolution." - Lee Walczak Connect with Lee: [email protected] https://www.facebook.com/leethemedium Lee and April's podcast, "Own Your Essence": https://www.youtube.com/@ownyouressencepodcast #podcastconversations #podcasting #stephuppodcast #stephup #healingjourney #leewalczak #stephanieannwebb Music: Inspiring Space Coffee by Audio Coffee https://www.audiocoffee.net/ Check out my children's book: “What Should Dragon Do?”: https://stephaniewebbcoach.wixsite.com/stephanieannwebb/author If you find comfort and hope in my content, and if you feel so led, I appreciate your support at Buy Me A Coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/stephanieannwebb Hosted on Acast.
