What if the signals your body sends aren’t random or inconvenient, but guidance from within?

In this episode of Journey to Self: Power Beyond People Pleasing, I share how I spent years following expert advice and still felt something was missing. Deep down, I knew my body was trying to tell me something different.

It wasn’t about pushing harder or fixing anything, it was about learning to listen. Once I began honoring the messages my body sent through sensations, emotions, and intuition, everything started to make sense.

If you’ve ever second-guessed your inner knowing or dismissed what your body was saying, this conversation will help you rebuild that trust and recognize the wisdom that’s been with you all along.

In this bonus episode, Sandy Bartlett sits down with business coach Suzy Wraines, founder of Starting a Business Simplified, for a powerful conversation on how people-pleasing patterns can sabotage new entrepreneurs.

Together they unpack why so many women overwork, undercharge, and say yes too often and how learning to set boundaries is the secret to sustainable success. You’ll hear real stories from both Sandy and Suzy’s journeys, practical ways to write your own “business policies,” and why boundaries are an act of self-respect, not rejection.

If you’ve ever felt guilty for slowing down or scared to disappoint a client, this conversation will remind you: your business can grow without self-sacrifice.

Suzy Wraines is a healing-centered business coach and podcast host who helps medical professionals transition from clinical roles into purpose-driven entrepreneurship. Known for her grounded guidance and spiritual insight, Suzy specializes in supporting nurses, physician assistants, therapists, and holistic healers to start coaching, consulting, and other service-based businesses without second-guessing their worth or doing it all alone.
