  • #151 - The Power of the Pause: Finding Clarity in the Chaos
    Aug 10 2025

    Send us a text

    INTRO TIME!
    Hey there, badasses! It’s been a minute… actually, since July 3rd. Life, family, and business hit me all at once, and I had to hit the brakes. But here’s the thing—pausing isn’t quitting. It’s protecting your energy so you can show up for what matters most.

    In this episode, I’m opening up about why I pressed pause, what it taught me, and how YOU can give yourself the same permission when life gets chaotic. Whether you’re running a service-based business or balancing a million life demands, this conversation will help you see “the pause” as a strategic power move—not a setback.

    💥 In this episode, we cover:

    • Why stepping back is NOT a sign of weakness
    • How to identify when your “plate” is overflowing
    • Setting boundaries without guilt (yes, no is a complete sentence!)
    • The importance of defining your “pause” timeline
    • How to create a comeback plan that feels exciting, not overwhelming
    • Navigating seasons of life + business without burning out

    💡 This episode is perfect for you if…

    • You’re a female entrepreneur feeling stretched too thin
    • You want to avoid burnout but still move your business forward
    • You’re ready to prioritize mental health, family, and joy
    • You need permission to slow down—without losing momentum

    Remember: Pausing doesn’t mean you’re lazy, uncommitted, or failing. It means you’re smart enough to protect your peace, your energy, and your dreams so you can come back swinging.

    Affirmations from this episode:

    • “I have the right to set things down without guilt.”
    • “Pausing isn’t quitting. It’s protecting my energy for what matters most.”
    • “Every season of my life has value—even the slow ones.”
    • “I come back stronger because I give myself space to breathe.”
    • “My worth isn’t measured by my productivity.”
    • “Rest is part of my strategy for success.”

  • #150 - Anchored or Soaring? How Your Circle Is Affecting Your Growth
    Jul 3 2025

    Send us a text

    Are the people around you fueling your growth, or holding you back?

    In this raw, real, and fiery solo episode, Tanya opens up about the powerful shift that happens when you start intentionally curating your circle. From letting go of people who want to keep you small to leaning into support that lifts you higher, this episode is about choosing your elevation over your comfort zone.


    Tanya gets honest about her own growth journey, what it’s taken to break generational patterns, and how she’s stepping fully into her zone of genius by surrounding herself with those who challenge her, support her, and celebrate her. If you’ve been playing small or stuck in “just okay” energy, this one’s your wake-up call.

    In this episode, Tanya dives into:

    • Why it’s time to reevaluate your circle of influence
    • Signs you’re anchored vs. soaring
    • The power of supportive friendships and intentional connection
    • How to handle family or friends who “mean well” but hold you back
    • The importance of asking for support and being clear about your goals
    • Her biggest mindset breakthrough at Growth Day
    • Why alignment matters more than achievement
    • How to make 2025 the year you truly soar

    Take Action Challenge:
    Choose one bold goal for 2025 and share it with someone who can support you.
    Be brave: Ask for what you actually need—support, accountability, mentorship, or just someone to cheer you on.
