Episode 140: Unstuck for Women. How To Get In Charge of Your Happiness with Christy Holt
Despite being well-intentioned, the voice chattering in our ears about how risky asking for that promotion can be or the thousands of ways things can go south if we start our own thing is doing a disservice to us. Doubt and overthinking think they are protecting us, but without a doubt, they are keeping us stuck.
In this episode, I'm thrilled to be joined by The Happiness Hussy, Christy Holt, to talk about finding happiness, overcoming self-sabotage, parenting, and more. Christy is a Speaker, Podcaster, Author, and Adventure Guide on a mission to help women free themselves from self-doubt and, using Christy's Spiral Stopper Method, stop reacting, take control of their emotions, and build confidence and self-love. She authored "Unstuck (for women)," her debut book soon to be followed by "Unstuck (for relationships)," and hosts the Create Your Happy podcast.
Throughout this episode, Christy shares tips and advice on overcoming self-sabotage and developing a more intentional living, setting boundaries for ourselves and others, and letting go of past regrets. She also talks about her past, how she got out of the place her self-doubt had built for her, the link between inner happiness and self-awareness, and how she came up with “The Spiral Stopper Method” that has helped hundreds of people take their lives to a better place.
Additionally, you'll hear Christy's thoughts on relationships, parenting, personal growth, and much more.
