This podcast is brought to you by Mercedes Saurbaugh, owner of Into The Woods Retreat + Therapeutic Coach. Her Unapologetic life is the podcast where women just like you and I come together to let go of what we think the world expects of us. Instead, we seek to unlock true success and potential in our hearts, lives, and businesses. Are you held back by self-doubt, people pleasing, or perfectionism? Feeling like the angst takes over when you want to show up? Have you been putting yourself on the back burner so long you feel like you lost a part of yourself, or maybe don’t even recognize who you see in the mirror? You are in the right place. Pull up a chair at the table. It is time to redefine success on your terms and live your purpose. The world needs you. Each week, Therapist turned Intuitive Life Coach, Mercedes, shares tools, ideas, stories, interviews, and coaching to inspire you to step into that unapologetic life that has been waiting for you. It doesn’t have to be hard. Let’s keep it simple sister. Find out more at https://www.mercedessaurbaughcoaching.com/ Music: www.purple-planet.com

Today, we're talking about perfectionism. I call her Perfectionism Polly.
You may find that living your life in a “perfectionist” state is exhausting. This is because what you’re actually doing is continuously putting your entire being in a “stress response” much more than your brain or body can handle.
Is perfectionism showing up for you in this season?
In the past, Perfectionism Polly dictated the decisions I made, the actions I took (or didn’t…), and held me back from a lot of things in early adulthood.
Join me and let me know if you felt a shift in your reflections.
You deserve to take the time today to reflect, free from perfectionism or whatever else is getting in your way.

This month, we’re talking about reflection. Specifically, self-reflection.
As we head into the last month of 2021….. We automatically start to look ahead. So, as our minds go there, and they will… I want to give you some moments this month to take the time to reflect.
This week is all about the “how-to” self-reflect, by becoming more aware of your thoughts and your belief system.
If this really interests you, head over to the Her Unapologetic Life group and watch the masterclass about the top 12 limiting beliefs.

How do we best connect? When we connect in an authentic way that feels good for us, we can experience deep connection and deep gratitude.
Many of us are in the midst of Thanksgiving weekend. These days people have access to us on the Holidays like never before. It is a blessing for sure, but are you honoring what you need this season?
Tune in today, as I muse about connection with others this season, and how it can bring us the gratitude we are looking for.
Remember to head over to the group, to make connections and hear more of my musings :)

As we get closer to Thanksgiving, there is a lot going on…. In our world, in our daily lives, and within ourselves. The holidays kick up some intense emotions; if we are willing to acknowledge them.
This year I have been reminded DEEPLY how grief and gratitude can coexist in my life. My dad passed away in September, and this season has been bittersweet.
Join me today as I model a bit of vulnerability with you, as we approach the season together.
There is no right or wrong way to live out this season when we are grieving.
My hope for you this season is that you hear the calling of your heart, listen to your gut and allow the Holy Spirit to guide your Soul.
And, if you need a human helper, I am here for you.

I love the holidays, and I love seeing family... But, I usually overdo it. How about you?
I have talked about the post-holiday emotional hangover I have experienced in the past. The balance is a real struggle for most of us.
This year can be different, and it is worth taking the time to get more clear on what you like, and don’t like, about your family traditions.
Today, we're talking about how YOU can choose to spend your time.
And, if you're ready, schedule your free clarity call here. I would love to chat with you!

In today's episode, as we begin a new month, we're talking about "family".
We are heading into the holidays, and can we probably agree that there are more opportunities to see and communicate with our families.
Join me today as I dig into how our extended and immediate families (and friends) influence our views of harvest and abundance.

It's time to get off the fast-paced interstate called High Functioning Anxiety and take the scenic route.
Today we get to consider together how slowing down to speed up can change us. It can change how we road trip, but more importantly, how we live.
Let’s also talk about habits, and practices, or people, places, and things that bring us joy… that allow for us to get in our groove.
If you need any help creating your own route 66, book your free clarity call today.

Have you ever wished you could just decide... and feel good about it?
Join me today, as we get to the bottom of WHY we are stuck in indecision, and a refreshing way to go from indecisive to a deeper sense of clarity.
Sometimes we need a nudge or an a-ha moment to help us sort it all out.
Listen in for a refreshing reminder and, a really simple, creative way to tune back in - for that clarity you are searching for.
And, if you're ready to go deeper, book your free clarity call today.
