In this episode, Tabitha unpacks the moment someone casually suggested licensing her newest big idea… and her entire brain hit the spinning rainbow wheel of death. Not because she doubted the idea. Not because she felt unqualified. But because she suddenly realized she had accidentally created something massive — something that would require time, research, partnerships, and a level of structure she has never needed before.

Tabitha talks openly about loving her idea, being wildly excited about it, and simultaneously wanting to throw herself across the room because of what it actually demands. Licensing means scale. Licensing means systems. Licensing means talking to people in an industry she has never touched before. Licensing means time. And as an impatient entrepreneur, accepting a multi-year timeline was its own emotional journey.

In this episode, Tabitha takes you deep into the arid, sun-scorched landscape of her Stan Store analytics, where the tumbleweeds roll freely and the only living organism appears to be her. After a year of having a fully set up, beautifully curated digital storefront, the stats are… well, grim. About 100 views, one lead, and absolutely zero sales. Zero.

But instead of keeping this struggle quiet, Tabitha does what she always does: she tells the truth about it. She breaks down what a Stan Store actually is, why it is such a powerful tool for creators and business owners, and why the platform is not the problem. The problem is visibility. The problem is showing up. The problem is being a silent entrepreneur hoping people will magically discover your work.

In this episode, Tabitha unpacks the intense, hilarious, and deeply human moment when her coach told her to stop hesitating and finally go for the thing she has been talking about for ages. Spoiler alert: her immediate reaction was not empowerment.

This episode dives into the physical side of fear, the wild bodily responses that come with taking big leaps, and why support systems can feel terrifying when you are used to shrinking. Tabitha also breaks down what it really looks like to find a coach you genuinely connect with, how to choose someone who challenges you rather than coddles you, and why being seen fully is both uncomfortable and transformative.

In this deeply honest episode, Tabitha Bear opens up about the year her own body staged a rebellion and forced her to sit down. Hard. Exhaustion became a daily companion, her mental health wavered, her weight climbed rapidly, and even walking up a flight of stairs felt like summiting a mountain. Running a business while running on empty was no longer an option.

Tabitha takes you through the full journey of hitting a physical low point, facing frightening bloodwork results, entering a twelve week medical program, choosing surgery, and navigating everything that came after, including the hair loss, the body dysmorphia, the fear, the relief, and the emotional aftermath. From protein shakes and miso soup to dropping ninety three pounds and slowly rebuilding her confidence, she shares it all.

Six years into building World Herstory, it finally happened. A paid subscriber. A real one. A living, breathing human being who exchanged actual money for Tabitha’s work. It should have been a soft and emotional moment, but instead it triggered full panic mode, a suspicious series of Stripe notifications and enough chaos to qualify as light cardio.

In this episode, Tabitha Bear walks you through the hilarious, unhinged, deeply meaningful story of earning her first eight dollars and thirty four cents. From believing her Stripe account had been hacked, to messaging her coach in a frenzy, to realizing those rapid-fire emails were actually good news, this is the first-timer story no one tells.
