Why You’re Not Getting What You Want Jul 09, 2025

Show notes

Kind of Want It? Kind of Stuck.

Let’s get brutally honest.

Have you ever caught yourself saying you want more, more success, more freedom, more alignment, but if you’re really honest, you haven’t moved an inch toward it?

Then this episode is your wake-up call.

I’m not here today to sugarcoat it or hand you another motivational quote to save for later. This episode is not about hype, it’s about truth. And if you’re an action-taker at heart, this will land deep.

Inside today’s episode, we’re going to unpack why you’re not getting what you say you want, and why it’s not because of strategy, talent, or timing…

It’s because you’ve been dancing in the land of “kind of.”

→ Kind of committed.

→ Kind of taking action.

→ Kind of playing big…. but mostly playing small.

Here’s what you’ll feel and learn:

The real difference between desire and decision
The hidden ways we sabotage our own growth
Why you keep negotiating with your dreams (and how to stop)

And how to finally break out of stuck mode, without apology, delay, or waiting for permissionThis episode will hit you like a mirror, because you’ll hear the exact patterns that have been costing you time, clarity, income, and confidence.

And more importantly? You’ll hear how to flip that switch for good.

This is your moment to get radically clear and move.

So, after listening, here’s what I want you to do:

→ Take 10 minutes. Write down exactly what you want.

→ Get brutally honest about what it’s costing you to stay in “almost.”

→ And pick one bold move you’ve been putting off, then go do it.

Because clarity without action is daydreaming. You didn’t come here to kind of want it. You came to get it.

If this episode lights a fire in you, share it with one person who needs the push, and hit follow so you never miss an episode designed to move you forward.

The 5 Hidden Challenges Killing Your Team Jul 02, 2025

Show notes

Top 5 Reasons Your Team Is Underperforming (And What To Do About It)

Hey Leader, let me ask you something real.

Is your team showing up... but still falling flat?

Are they busy but not productive? Present but not fully engaged?

If you're nodding yes, even a little, then this episode is for you.

Today, I’m pulling back the curtain on the real reasons your team isn’t performing at their best, and no, it’s not because they’re lazy or unmotivated. It’s because something deeper is off.

And if you’re the kind of leader who actually gives a damn about doing better, not just looking good on paper…then keep listening.

Because I’m breaking down the Top 5 silent killers of team performance, things like:

→ Lack of clarity

→ Feeling unseen

→ Burnout

→ Broken communication

→ And the most overlooked of all, no clear path to grow

You’ll walk away with a powerful lens to spot where your team might be quietly disengaging, burning out, or just checking boxes, and exactly what to do about it.

You won’t just feel more empowered as a leader.

You’ll lead differently. Smarter. More human.

And with a deeper sense of purpose.

Here’s what I want you to do after listening:

Choose one of the five areas I unpack. Ask yourself: “Where am I contributing to this problem — and what shift can I lead today?”
Have the brave conversation. With your team. Or with yourself. That’s where real leadership starts.

And if this episode hits home, don’t keep it to yourself.

Share it with one other leader you know is trying to lead better, not just harder.

Because the truth is, your team deserves a leader who’s willing to look in the mirror first. And if that’s you?

Remember, you have full control to make changes.

With Gratitude,

Nancy

When Success Doesn't Feel Like Enough Jun 25, 2025

Show notes

Hey friend, let me ask you something real quick—have you ever looked around your life and thought, “I should feel grateful… so why do I still feel off?”

If that hits home, this episode is for you.

Today, we’re getting honest about something many high achievers feel but rarely talk about what happens when the success you’ve built on the outside doesn’t match how you feel on the inside.

You’re checking all the boxes, showing up strong, doing everything “right”… but deep down?

You’re tired, unfulfilled, maybe even disconnected from who you really are.

I’m walking you through a powerful mindset shift how to stop performing success and start redefining it.

You’ll hear why feeling “off” doesn’t mean you’re broken it means you’re waking up.

And you’ll learn how to reconnect with your purpose, your energy, and what actually matters to you.

You’ll feel seen, grounded, and reminded that your definition of success is allowed to change. And it should—because you’ve changed.

So, here’s what I want you to try this week:

Take 5 quiet minutes. Ask yourself:

👉 What does real success feel like to me right now? 👉 What have I outgrown that I’m still holding on to?

Write it down. Say it out loud. Let that be your starting point.

Now press play, and let’s talk about what success feels like not just what it looks like.

In today’s Empower with Nancy, we’re talking about how to take back your voice, your energy, and your story. You’ll hear why saying “yes” to everyone else can make you disappear in your own life, and how one tiny decision to choose you can flip the whole script.

Expect a mix of tough love and big encouragement. By the end you’ll know:

how to spot the roles you’re playing for other people,
the cost of shrinking to keep the peace, and
a simple mirror exercise that helps you remember who’s really in charge (hint: it’s you).

You’ll leave feeling lighter, braver, and ready to put your name back at the top of your to-do list.

After listening, grab a mirror, look yourself straight in the eyes, and say: "I’m the author of my life. Today I choose what happens next. "Then jot down one thing you’re done tolerating and one small way you’ll put yourself first before the day ends. Do that and watch your story start to change.

Ready? Let’s press play and reclaim your power… one honest choice at a time.

From Homeless to Icon: Dr. Joe Vitale on the Truth About Manifestation Jun 04, 2025

Show notes

Have you ever felt like you’re doing all the right things—reading the books, thinking positive, taking action—but your life still feels stuck? Like there's an invisible wall between where you are and the life you want?

In this powerful episode, I sit down with the incredible Dr. Joe Vitale—best known from The Secret—who opens up about his raw, real-life journey from homelessness and heartbreak to bestselling author, spiritual teacher, and MMA student at age 71. He shares the truth about what it really takes to manifest a better life—and spoiler alert—it’s not just about wishing for it.

You’ll walk away feeling uplifted and grounded. You’ll learn how to catch and shift your negative thoughts, understand the real role your beliefs play in shaping your life, and why forgiveness—especially of yourself—is a key to breaking through what’s been holding you back.

After listening, I invite you to try this: Start noticing your inner talk. When doubt or worry creeps in, pause. Ask yourself: What am I feeding my mind right now? Then choose one small shift—change the channel, change the thought, change the energy. Because the smallest shifts in focus can create the biggest changes in your reality.

Who Are You May 28, 2025

Show notes

Have you ever looked in the mirror and wondered, "Who am I when no one needs anything from me?"

If you’ve been the one holding it all together for everyone else, but now you’re feeling lost, tired, or just… off — this episode is for you.

Today’s episode, we’re digging deep into a truth many women avoid facing — when the roles you've played for others begin to feel like a cage, not a choice.

As you listen, you’ll feel seen, heard, and understood — because I know what it feels like to be the strong one, the fixer, the achiever, the caretaker… until you don’t even recognize yourself anymore.

But here’s the shift: you are not breaking down — you're breaking open. You'll learn how to spot where you’re performing instead of living, how to stop saying "yes" just to be liked, and how to start choosing yourself again — with one honest moment at a time.

By the end of this episode, I’ll challenge you to choose just one moment today to honor your truth.

Maybe it’s saying “no” to protect your peace, or saying “yes” to something just for you.

You’ll also find a free worksheet linked in the show notes that’ll help you go even deeper and start reclaiming your spark.

Let’s dive in. You’re not behind. You’re not broken. You’re becoming. You have full control of the wheel!!

With Gratitude,

Nancy

Show notes

Have you ever caught yourself thinking, “Should I focus on chasing my purpose, or just do what makes real money?”

If you’ve ever felt stuck between doing what lights, you up and doing what pays the bills—you are not alone.

Welcome back to Empower with Nancy, the podcast where we talk all things purpose, mindset, and powerful leadership for business owners, coaches, and driven professionals who want to create a life and business they actually love.

I’m diving deep into a question I hear all the time from clients: Do I have to choose between purpose and profit? And let me tell you—you absolutely do not.

In fact, thinking you have to pick one or the other might be the very thing that’s keeping you burned out, underpaid, and playing small.

By the time you finish listening, you’ll feel seen, fired up, and more confident about how to build a business or career that truly reflects both your heart and your worth.

You’ll learn:

Why struggling isn't proof that you're doing things "the right way"
How purpose and profit actually work better together
3 powerful shifts you can start making today to align your mission with real money
How to stop undercharging, overdelivering, and undervaluing your gifts

I’ll also challenge you to stop settling for “just getting by” and start practicing one simple but game-changing truth:

👉 You’re allowed to thrive and serve.

You don’t have to pick. You get to build a life where both your purpose and your bank account are in full alignment.

So, tune in, take a deep breath, and let this episode remind you that you can be well-paid, purpose-driven, and wildly impactful—all at the same time.

You have full control of the wheel!

The CEO Shift You Can’t Ignore May 07, 2025

Show notes

Have you ever walked into a room and felt like no one noticed you—or worse, you questioned if you even belonged there?

In today’s episode of Empower with Nancy, we’re diving into something every leader needs but most people don’t talk about: how to command a room with presence, grace, and real confidence—without force, ego, or trying to be someone you’re not.

You’ll walk away feeling more grounded, more in control of your energy, and more aware of how your presence alone can influence a room. I’ll share what true presence really means, the three pillars to build it on, and how you can start showing up as the most powerful version of yourself.

Try one of the practices I share—like mirror work, anchoring rituals, or intentional reflection. Just one small shift a day can change how others see you…and how you see yourself.

Remember! You control the wheel!
