·46 min·4 clips

Carley Weissert explains how her quiet inner whisper forced her to end a marriage that no longer fit.

The episode begins with an introduction of guest Carley Weissert, described as a confidence and 'revolution' coach. The host frames the discussion around the internal angst many feel about whether their life aligns with their true self. Carley recounts her personal journey, starting in fall 2019 when she deepened her personal development work. The COVID-19 pandemic provided more time for inner reflection, during which she realized her life was built to meet others' expectations. She describes an inner 'whisper' that grew louder until she could no longer ignore it, leading to the difficult decision to end her marriage about two years prior. The host relates this to his own experiences, emphasizing that such transitions are often messy and painful but necessary for growth. They discuss the analogy of Tiger Woods needing to revamp his successful golf swing to achieve greater heights, illustrating that past identities must be released. The concept of the 'dark night of the soul' is explored as a prolonged, challenging period of self-questioning. The host mentions Bruce Feiler's book 'Lifequakes,' which describes major life disruptions as normal four-to-five year processes. Carley talks about the importance of slowing down, trusting a higher power, and viewing challenges as happening 'for' her rather than 'to' her. The conversation shifts to the role of community and connection, with both emphasizing the value of sharing emotions without offering unsolicited advice. Carley shares her daily habits, including meditation, walking outdoors, yoga, and deep connections with other women. The host discusses his experience in a business organization's small groups that focused on emotional sharing rather than problem-solving. When asked for one piece of wisdom, Carley states that believing you are worthy and lovable exactly as you are opens up freedom and transforms life. The host shares a recent personal experience where he felt unconditional love during a difficult conversation, attributing it to a connection with a higher power. Carley agrees, describing her own journey to self-love and feeling adored by her higher power. The episode concludes with Carley's coaching work and the host directing listeners to her website.
