66. Self Reflection & How to Feel Emotionally Empowered

I get on my soap box & am ALL up in my feels in this episode!! This is for the woman who is currently overwhelmed, shutting down, impatient, and stretched thin...but she WANTS to be patient, feel in control, have better routines, and feel balanced between work, life & responsibilities.

We go over:

1. Where to start when you have a lot on your mind & you want to self reflect

2. How to journal so that you don't get stuck in your emotions

3. How to pick which emotion to work through first

4. The 5 steps to work through them using the Breakthrough Blueprint

Self Reflection Journaling Process:

  1. Write or type out an "emotional braindump" (Awareness step of the Breakthrough Blueprint)
    • How am I feeling about ___, whats happening in my world in regards to ____(work, hobbies, money, relationships) 
    • Whatever comes up is perfect! No set length of time, just go until you can't think of anything anymore.
  2. Pick out key words you used in your braindump (maybe stressed, overwhelmed, frustrated) or common triggers that you mentioned throughout.

 

With this ALONE my friend said “It felt soooo good. I twas such a relief to get it out there. And it doesn’t feel triggering anymore. I feel i can control what I write about and release."

3. To take it one step further, utilize the Breakthrough Blueprint for those key triggers. Get that free journaling resource here: https://www.samanthapenkoff.com/offers/YdGvgoZn

About the Podcast

Beyond Awareness: Closing the Gap Between Knowing and Doing
Closing the Gap Between Knowing and Doing
Beyond Awareness (formerly Journal Entries) is for successful women in leadership and business who know exactly what they need to do but can't make themselves do it.

You know you need to prioritize yourself, delegate more, set boundaries, stop bringing work home. You've tried therapy, coaching, retreats. You know the solution - but you either can't follow through, or when you DO, it doesn't stick.

Host Samantha Hawley helps business owners and executives earning $100k+ excavate the root beliefs underneath the execution gap. Why do you keep not doing the thing? Why doesn't it feel better when you do? Using strategic journaling and emotional excavation, we go beyond awareness into why you're actually stuck in the pattern.

This isn't about more tactics or tips. This is about understanding why awareness isn't enough and what actually needs to shift for you to change.

You'll hear about: decision fatigue, why you can't prioritize yourself, nervous system regulation, being present with your kids, root cause of overwhelm, why boundaries don't stick, self-sabotage patterns, and how your internal state impacts everything.

Perfect for: Female CFOs, VPs, directors, executives, business owners, and women in leadership who are tired of knowing what's wrong but not being able to change it.
