About this listen

 #1 MINDSET + HIGH PERFORMANCE PODCAST FOR HIGH ACHIEVING PAGEANT WOMEN . Do you sometimes struggle to believe in yourself, despite having big, audacious goals? Have you ever felt alone, because you’re the only one in your circle dreaming as big as you are? Do you desire a deeper, more fulfilled life spiritually, mentally, and professionally, without the dreaded + seemingly never-ending “motivated vs totally burned out” cycle? Do you desire to know Jesus at a deeper level, want Christ-centered goals in line with His will for you, but don’t know where to start or who to trust? Do you want to learn the REAL things that will help you reach your next BIG goal in pageants, work, or your relationships? Do you want to finally conquer the inner-monster inside of you and step into your most confident, courageous self? . God wants you to be even holier, happier, healthier, hotter, and wealthier than you have even allowed yourself to dream of! (According to Ephesians 3:20; 3 John 1:2) What do I call this woman? A POWERHOUSE. . Welcome to The Powerhouse Podcast - Your Go-To show for high achieving, busy Christian women who want to live their dream lives – confident, courageous, making a massive impact, and on fire for God. . As busy Christian women, sometimes we feel guilty or like we have no time to build the life we feel called to by God.

I created this podcast to show you that everything you’ve dreamed of is 100% possible for you. If you’re a pageant competitor - this will help you win your pageant. If you’re not, it will help you connect with God and yourself on a whole new level (yes, even for women with “no time”) so that you can accomplish whatever goals are on your heart in this season. How? Just keep plugging in, applying what you hear, + listening to the next episode. WHY SHOULD YOU LISTEN TO ME? Hi, y’all!

  • Shift Your Mind: The 4-Step Reset To Stop Negative Thoughts

    Shift Your Mind: The 4-Step Reset To Stop Negative Thoughts
    Sep 5 2025

    One thought shouldn’t hijack your whole day. Or worse, you let one negative comment completely throw you off for the biggest pageant interview of your life.

    In this episode, Megan breaks down a fast, reproducible four-step reset that moves you from spiral → stable in minutes. You’ll learn how to spot the exact thought that’s running the show, interrupt it on command, uncover the “positive intent” beneath unhelpful habits, and replace the lie with truth—grounded in scripture and backed by simple brain science. Two quick guided exercises at the end help you feel the shift in real time.

    Mini Identity Reset (3 days, 30 min/day): Turn your inner voice from bully to coach and set a clear target with your renewed identity. DM RESET to @powerhousepageantry or @meganswansonrhodes

  • How To Silence The Inner Critic and Speak More Kindly To Yourself

    How To Silence The Inner Critic and Speak More Kindly To Yourself
    Aug 27 2025
    What if the harsh voice in your head isn’t “the truth,” but a clumsy survival strategy that can be rewired in minutes? In this episode, Megan blends Scripture with brain science to reveal why negative self-talk keeps recreating the same outcomes—and how a few surprisingly playful shifts (yes, playful) can lower its volume, change its meaning, and open up a calmer, more productive inner world. You’ll hear a raw origin story, then step-by-step tools to interrupt the spiral, recode your “mental operating system,” and finally feel congruent with the woman you’re working so hard to become. Inside the episode The real reason self-criticism sticks: its hidden “positive intent” and how to meet that need in a healthier way. A fast dissociation exercise to shrink the critic’s power (including the “remote control” trick). The thermostat principle: how inner narratives quietly reset your results, regardless of achievement. Pattern-interrupt language that stops rumination and pivots you into action. Faith × neuroscience: practical ways to “renew your mind” so behavior change lasts. State shifts on demand: using the body to move the mind when you’re stuck. A bite-size, 3-day reset to turn your inner voice from bully to coach. Mini Identity Reset (3 days, 30 min/day): Turn your inner voice from bully to coach and set a clear target with your renewed identity.
