There’s a moment when the fear of what’s coming feels heavier than anything we’ve faced. I’ve been there—frozen, anxious, sure the unknown was out to get me. In 2023, my husband and I faced something that shook us, and it made me confront a fear so many of us carry: the fear of the unknown. It’s not the unknown that scares us—it’s the stories we’ve superimposed from our past. The heartbreak, the trauma, the disappointments—we carry them into the way we imagine the future, and suddenly, the what-ifs feel paralyzing. Freedom comes when we release the past from the future. We soften, stop protecting ourselves from what hasn’t happened, and trust that we’re okay. I share stories from my life and the women I coach—about heartbreak, loss, and the what-ifs—to show how letting go opens the door to peace. We’ve survived hard things before. We can survive what comes next, too. – Connect with Deanna Herrin: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/deannaherrin/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/deanna-herrin/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thedeannaherrin Website: http://www.deannaherrin.net

There was something about this conversation with Dasha Dare that cracked me open in the best way. The way she weaves photography, self-perception, and consciousness together feels like a permission slip for every woman who’s been trying to keep herself “put together” while quietly longing to feel seen in a truer way. Our stories crossed paths on LinkedIn, but what she shared with me goes far deeper than a professional connection — it’s a whole new lens on how we relate to ourselves. Dasha walked me through how our self-image is actually shaped long before we ever stand in front of a mirror, and how the photos we avoid looking at often hold the exact wisdom we’re craving. Her view of selfies as spiritual practice stunned me — not vanity, not performance, but a doorway into the parts of ourselves we’ve been taught to hide. One line I’m still sitting with: “You are never the image — you are what’s beyond it.” It’s the kind of shift that makes you rethink why your marriage, your body, your career, and your identity feel the way they do… and what might soften when you stop trying to manage the image and start meeting the woman beneath it. – Connect with Dasha Dare: Instagram: @dashadare LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dasha-dare/Website: www.dashadare.com and www.time2dare.com – Connect with Deanna Herrin: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/deannaherrin/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/deanna-herrin/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thedeannaherrin Website: http://www.deannaherrin.net

Some seasons of marriage stretch you in ways you never saw coming — especially when you’re doing the inner work and your partner says he wants to… but his actions don’t quite match your pace. I’ve walked that road. I know what it feels like to carry the emotional weight of the relationship, to want growth so badly you could almost shake it into happening, and to wonder if things will ever shift. This conversation pulls back the curtain on what was actually happening inside me during those years — and how, even recently, the chaos of our renovation brought an old pattern to the surface. You’ll hear why resisting life (and resisting your partner’s timing) creates suffering, what changed instantly when I stopped trying to manage his healing, and the quiet kind of feminine leadership that invites a man forward instead of pushing him away. If you’ve been longing for more connection, more emotional honesty, or simply more ease in your marriage, this one will feel like a deep exhale.

There comes a moment when your body whispers the truth before your mind is ready to hear it. Today, I’m sitting down with someone who knows exactly what that feels like — and has turned that moment into a mission.  I’m joined by the incredible Emma Gaskin, a speech therapist turned public speaking coach who empowers women to speak their truth and get paid to do it. Her journey is a powerful reminder that our voice is more than words — it’s identity, alignment, and our pathway to impact. Emma opens up about walking away from a decade-long relationship just months before the wedding… and discovering her true voice in the silence that followed. She shares how her Speak Up Method blends science, soul, and strategy to help women stop shrinking, own their impact, and speak with power that people feel. We get into the neuroscience of storytelling, the social conditioning that teaches women to stay small, and the difference between speaking from a wound vs. speaking from the wisdom it gave you. You’ll also hear simple everyday ways to practice using your voice If you’re ready to stop swallowing your truth and start standing in it, this conversation is your permission slip. – Connect with Emma Gaskin: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/thespeakinghub/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/emmajgaskin/  – Connect with Deanna Herrin: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/deannaherrin/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/deanna-herrin/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thedeannaherrin Website: http://www.deannaherrin.net

I used to believe my happiness depended on my husband changing—but I’ve learned that the real work is within. In this episode, I share how trying to fix him left me feeling unsafe, reactive, and disconnected, and how I realized my reactivity wasn’t about him at all. I walk you through the shifts that transformed my marriage and deepened emotional intimacy: reclaiming your voice, meeting your inner little girl with love and compassion, regulating your nervous system, and releasing stuck emotions. These practices create space for real connection, understanding, and love—not just in your marriage, but in every relationship in your life. By doing your own inner work, you’ll discover how changing your perspective and healing your past wounds transforms your relationships and allows love and trust to flourish naturally. – The Conscious Marriage Method is your roadmap to transforming old relationship patterns into lasting healing and connection.

Feeling disconnected in your marriage doesn’t mean love is gone. Often, it’s old patterns, unspoken stories, and unmet expectations quietly running beneath the surface. I share my own journey of feeling alone in a marriage I deeply loved and how I learned to recognize what was really happening. How subtle stress and childhood programming can create distance over timeWhy “doing more” never restores intimacyHow triggers reveal the deeper stories running your marriageSteps to shift from surviving to feeling emotionally close, seen, and understood If you’ve ever wondered why connection fades, this conversation will help you see the unseen patterns and offer insight into how to reconnect—with your partner and yourself. – The Conscious Marriage Method is a step-by-step approach to uncovering the hidden patterns that create distance in your marriage.

Silence in a marriage can feel like the safest choice. The silent treatment is a shield we use to protect ourselves. When old childhood wounds or emotional triggers surface, it can become a natural response to withdraw. I share my personal journey of understanding the silence in my own marriage. What I discovered is that it wasn’t about shutting my partner out—it was a cry to feel seen, held, and safe. Recognizing these hidden emotions allowed me to create deeper connection, intimacy, and emotional safety in my relationship. Silence can also deepen emotional disconnection and fuel resentment if left unchecked. We’ll explore how to respond differently: stay present, communicate your truth, and process emotions without withdrawing. If you’ve ever gone quiet to protect your heart or avoid conflict, this episode will help you uncover what that silence is really saying—and transform it into understanding, closeness, and conscious communication. – The Conscious Marriage Method is your roadmap to transforming old relationship patterns into lasting connection.

Marriage can be the most beautiful mirror for our own healing. For years, I tried to change my husband, only to realize the real work started within me. In this episode, I open up about the five powerful shifts that changed everything in my marriage—five ways I learned to love my husband better by first learning to love myself. These shifts came through deep inner work: releasing resentment that had quietly built up over decades, rewriting the stories I’d been telling myself about who my husband was, taking responsibility for my own needs, and learning to see him through a lens of gratitude instead of lack. The most life-changing part? Reconnecting with myself—my body, my feminine energy, and the woman I’d lost along the way. When I stopped trying to change him and chose to look inward instead, our entire relationship transformed. You’ll hear honest, heartfelt reflections (like how resentment really just “poisons from the inside out”) and the mindset changes that brought more intimacy, play, and peace into a 33-year marriage. These are the kinds of lessons that don’t just change a relationship—they change your life. – Ready to experience this kind of transformation in your own marriage?

Have you ever held onto a hurt that felt completely justified—the moments someone let you down, dismissed your feelings, or didn’t meet your expectations? I know that weight all too well. For years, I carried what felt like justified anger. It felt protective, but in reality it kept me stuck in resentment, bitterness, and disconnected from the peace and freedom I longed for. This episode is about more than just relationships—it’s about personal transformation. Holding onto anger and old hurts doesn’t just affect others; it quietly shapes your peace, your self-awareness, and your emotional freedom. I share how my own journey of self-healing revealed the deeper wounds behind resentment, why letting go is so powerful, and how choosing empowerment over blame opens the door to greater connection—with yourself and the people in your life. If you’ve ever felt weighed down by anger, resentment, or old wounds, you’re not alone. There is a path to emotional freedom, wholeness, and conscious connection—and it all begins with the choice to let go. – If you’re ready to go deeper into releasing old hurts, letting go of justified anger, and creating more freedom and peace in your life, join me for my upcoming 3-day Resentment Reset Workshop. We’ll explore how resentment shows up, how it affects your body and relationships, and practical ways to release it so you can experience emotional freedom.

Marriage has a way of reflecting our deepest wounds, often without us even realizing it. If you’ve ever thought, “Where did the person I married go?”—you’re not alone. I once asked myself the same question, only to realize the real shift had to begin within me. I had to look at my own patterns, my old stories, and the ways I was unconsciously showing up before I could see him—and our marriage—clearly. In this episode, I open up about how unconscious patterns and old stories can cloud the way we see our partner, build resentment, and block intimacy. You’ll hear how I began to heal my own ‘side of the street’, what it means to create a conscious marriage, and why unconditional love starts with the way we love ourselves. The spark you’re missing isn’t gone—it’s simply buried under unhealed stories, waiting for you to see with new eyes. – Join me for my upcoming 3-day workshop where we’ll go deeper into healing resentment and creating a conscious marriage.

Hiding pieces of ourselves feels safe—until it keeps us stuck. Today, I invite you to explore the unseen cost of hiding who you truly are. From the roles we play to the stories we believe about ourselves, many of us unconsciously trade authenticity for approval. But when we uncover these patterns, we can finally step into freedom, joy, and our limitless potential. I share personal stories from my life, including the years I lost myself trying to be the “good wife,” and dive into how fear silently shapes our choices in relationships, career, and money. You’ll learn why the subconscious mind—not circumstances—creates your reality, and how changing the story you believe about yourself can change everything. If you’re ready to stop hiding and start living more fully, lean in, listen closely, and allow yourself to notice what’s been keeping you small. There’s freedom waiting on the other side. – Connect with Deanna: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/deannaherrin/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/deanna-herrin/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thedeannaherrin Website: http://www.deannaherrin.net

Some conversations feel like soul connections, and that’s exactly how I felt sitting down with Dr. Erica Kreismann. Her journey from emergency medicine in New York—beginning just months before 9/11—to packing up her family and moving across the world to Tasmania is nothing short of remarkable. Through it all, what stands out most is her adventurous spirit, her heart for service, and her deep belief in the power of presence. In our conversation, Erica shares how burnout pushed her to reimagine life, what Tasmania taught her about slowing down, and why connection—whether with patients, colleagues, or loved ones—is the true heartbeat of healing. We talk about embracing fear as part of growth, letting go of judgment to make space for curiosity, and the life-changing shift that comes when you finally choose to fill your own cup first. A few gems you’ll hear along the way: Why learning to be present is one of the greatest skills we can practiceHow fear isn’t a sign to stop—it’s an invitation to step forward with courageThe radical responsibility we must take for our healing and growthErica’s story is a powerful reminder that life is an adventure meant to be lived fully, even when it feels uncertain. –  Connect with Dr. Erica Kreismann:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/erica-kreismann/Website: https://www.onewildcoaching.com/  – Connect with Deanna: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/deannaherrin/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/deanna-herrin/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thedeannaherrin Website: http://www.deannaherrin.net

We all carry quiet stories about who we are and what’s possible for us—and in this two-part series, I’m unpacking the ten most common “I am not” beliefs I see holding people back. Last week, we looked at the first five, and today I’m bringing you the next five that show up in so many lives, marriages, and businesses. In this episode, you’ll hear how beliefs like “I’m not capable,” “I’m not seen,” “I’m not free,” “I’m not allowed,” and “I’m not lovable if I fail” can subtly shape the way you show up in the world.  I’ll share real-life stories (including moments from my own journey) and give you simple but powerful reframes to shift each one. Because when you recognize that capability grows with action, that freedom begins in the mind, and that failure is actually courage—it changes everything. If this message speaks to you, make sure you’re subscribed so you never miss an episode. And if you know a friend who could use a reminder that their limiting beliefs aren’t the truth of who they are, share this conversation with them. We rise higher together. – Connect with Deanna: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/deannaherrin/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/deanna-herrin/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thedeannaherrin Website: http://www.deannaherrin.net

We all carry subtle beliefs that shape how we see ourselves—thoughts like “I’m not enough,” “I’m not worthy,” or “I’m not lovable.” These limiting beliefs often start in childhood or are passed down through generations, quietly influencing our mindset, relationships, and sense of self-worth. In this episode, I dive into the first half of the most common “I am not” stories and share ways to start noticing them in your life. You’ll hear examples from my own journey, see how these subconscious patterns show up daily, and learn simple reframes that help you feel more confident, safe, and worthy of love. Here’s a peek at what you’ll uncover: How childhood experiences and ancestral patterns shape the stories you carrySubtle ways these beliefs affect your mindset, confidence, and relationshipsPractical reframes to step into self-love, inner confidence, and personal freedom If you’re ready to start noticing the stories that no longer serve you, this episode is a gentle first step toward breaking free and embracing your limitless self.

Do you ever feel like no matter how hard you work, you just can’t seem to break through to the next level? You’re doing all the things—working on your mindset, setting goals, pushing yourself—but something still feels stuck. In this episode, I share the three hidden forces that keep so many of us from moving forward, even when we’re putting in the effort. We’ll talk about why affirmations and mindset shifts often fall flat, what’s really happening in your nervous system and subconscious, and how to shift your energetic frequency so you can finally experience the change you’ve been working toward. Here’s a peek at what I cover: Why feeling safe in your body is essential for receiving moreHow subconscious programming keeps you looping in lack and limitationWhat your energetic frequency reveals about the stories you’re believing This is Abundance 101—and my hope is that you walk away remembering: you already are abundant.
