BUY THE SLOW LIVING BOOK HERE! Today, we’re talking about setting boundaries, speaking your truth, and protecting your energy—lessons Sarah Horgan learned through her cancer journey. One of her biggest realizations? People don’t think about us as much as we assume. And when we try to manage someone else’s emotions, we might actually stop them from fully processing their own feelings. Prioritizing yourself isn’t selfish—it’s necessary. Small, quiet moments—like driving in silence or making a tea latte—can help you reset and recharge. We’re also diving into how your environment reflects what’s happening inside of you. Sometimes, a little decluttering can be more powerful than you think. Letting go—whether it’s old habits, relationships, or even physical stuff—creates space for growth and helps you step into a mindset that serves you. You don’t need to hold on to everything to be okay. It’s time to build a life that aligns with your well-being, one intentional step at a time.

BUY THE SLOW LIVING BOOK HERE! Today, we’re talking about Pilates—but not just the workout. We’re diving into how Pilates trains both your body and mind, helping you build strength, focus, and resilience. If you’ve ever felt like you were just going through the motions in a workout (or in life), this episode is for you. Pilates isn’t about getting it perfect —it’s about tuning into your body, noticing what’s happening, and showing up for yourself. Joe Pilates, the founder of Pilates, believed in training the body to come back each day, not to chase perfection, but to compare your progress to your own yesterday. The more you practice, the more possible it becomes. And yes, that also means it can get harder—but in the best way. Lesley Logan, founder of onlinepilatesclasses.com and the Be It Till You See It Podcast , is here to help you experience this firsthand. She uses her podcast separate from Pilates to talk to people who are experts in other areas, to really allow people to tap into different areas, and help achieve other goals that they may have. Not only does she learn from this podcast, but other people can too. Sometimes, stepping into a new version of yourself starts with a single action—so what’s stopping you? Let’s talk about it.

1 Jobs, Careers, and Identity 25:53
BUY THE SLOW LIVING BOOK HERE! Today, we're talking about something so many of us wrestle with—separating who we are from what we do. It can be easy to think that your worth is tied to your job title or how hard you're working, but really your identity is not your job. You are worthy of all the wonderful things life has to offer, simply because of who you are—not what you achieve. Separating work from identity can be freeing. Inspired by my book Slow Living , I explore how to detach from the pressures of defining ourselves by our careers. JL Collins talks about The FIRE (Financial Independence, Retire Early) movement, in his book The Simple Path to Wealth. It reinforces this idea—retirement isn’t an age, but a financial equation that can create more freedom in your life. Workplaces can feel like a second home but it’s important to remember that work and colleagues are separate from your actual life . True belonging comes from the family and close friends who truly know, love, and support you. At the end of the day, your life happens outside of work, with the people who matter most.

BUY THE SLOW LIVING BOOK HERE! Today we are talking about how to navigate overwhelming times and take back control of your life. Right now, many people are feeling upset with the state of the world. It’s easy to get caught up in the chaos, but the real question is—what are you doing every day? Are your habits helping you move forward or keeping you stuck? So… how do you create a sense of peace when everything feels uncertain? One of the first steps is decluttering—removing the things that aren’t working for you. This could be physical clutter, mental clutter, or even emotional clutter. Pay attention to where your focus is going. If you’re only seeing what’s wrong, it might be time to shift your energy toward what is in your control. I’m sharing more on how slow living and small daily changes can help you create a calmer, more intentional life—one step at a time. Want to go back and listen to more episodes like this one?

BUY THE SLOW LIVING BOOK HERE! http://stephanieodea.com/slowlivingbook In this episode, the idea of living a B+ life is explored, emphasizing that it's okay to not be perfect. The pressure to impress others or achieve unattainable goals often leads to procrastination and burnout. Instead of striving for flawlessness, focusing on what's truly important to you and decluttering unnecessary distractions can help create a fulfilling life. Happiness doesn't have to be delayed until reaching some idealized goal—it's possible to embrace contentment in the present. Living a B+ life is about prioritizing personal happiness and success, not settling. It encourages taking small steps, such as spending 10 minutes decluttering or letting go of perfectionism, to build a more balanced and fulfilling life. It's okay to give yourself room to be imperfect and still thrive.

We also discuss why birth control doesn’t actually balance hormones and how stress, diet, and lifestyle factors can impact hormonal health, gut function, and overall wellness. If you are beginning to enter perimenopause, tracking your ups and downs and all around is incredibly important because you need to know what is considered "normal" and what is something you should be alarmed about.

There are days when I catch myself thinking: “I haven’t done enough,” “my ideas aren’t fresh enough,” or even “my clothes aren’t right for this situation.” The good news? These feelings happen less and less as the years go by, and I’m here to encourage you to take the same journey. If unworthiness is something you’re wrestling with, I encourage you to poke at it. Yes, it’s uncomfortable—like crawling through a mucky swamp or climbing a mountain straight out of an episode of Dora the Explorer . But the only way to get to the other side is to go through it. In this episode, I’m sharing: My own experience with unworthiness and how I’ve worked through it. Why it’s essential to lean into the discomfort, even when it feels overwhelming. Encouragement to start your own journey through the “swamp” of self-doubt. Let this episode remind you: you’re not alone, and growth comes from facing those tough feelings head-on. Tune in, and let’s take one step closer to feeling worthy together. Want other episodes that are related to this topic?

1 Encore Episode: Deciphering Data 30:26
BUY THE SLOW LIVING BOOK HERE! Welcome to our second encore episode! As we revisit some of the most impactful conversations from the podcast, today’s episode is all about redefining your relationship with data . If you’ve been a longtime listener, you’ve probably heard me say this before: you are NOT a spreadsheet. And it’s true. But that doesn’t mean you should ignore the numbers altogether. When you’re working to improve your life—whether it’s your health, finances, or personal goals—tracking data is essential. Here’s the catch: data is just data. It’s neutral. It doesn’t define you or determine your worth. This episode dives into: How to collect data without attaching emotions or self-worth to it. Why separating your feelings from the facts is crucial to personal growth. Real-life examples of using data intentionally—like stepping on the scale during a health journey or reviewing your bank statement to improve your finances. Practical tips for keeping your emotions in check while staying accountable to your goals. Whether you’re looking to declutter your mind, simplify your approach, or gain clarity on your progress, this episode will remind you to embrace the facts without letting them define who you are. Tune in to this encore episode and learn how to use data as a tool for growth, not judgment. Want to know more about living a slowed down life?!

1 Encore Episode: Sober Curious 30:37
BUY THE SLOW LIVING BOOK HERE! Welcome to our first encore episode of the season! As we close out the year, I’m bringing back some of the most impactful episodes that continue to resonate with my coaching clients and community. Today, we’re revisiting an important conversation about the role alcohol plays in your life. Is alcohol taking up too much space in your life? Is there a healthy place for it in your daily routine? Here’s the key takeaway: exploring your habits doesn’t require a label. Deciding to examine your alcohol consumption—or anything else like food or social media—doesn’t mean you have a problem. Instead, it’s about staying curious and intentional about how these things impact your life. In this episode, we’ll talk about: Why labeling yourself isn’t helpful—and how to keep an open mind as you reflect on your habits. How to evaluate whether alcohol (or any habit) is actively helping you achieve your dream life. The first step in embracing a slow living lifestyle: decluttering what’s not working. The difference between Start Goals and Stop Goals , and how to integrate them into your daily habits. This is an invitation to pause, reflect, and get curious. If something isn’t helping you move forward, it’s worth exploring why you’re holding on to it. Tune in to this encore episode and start building the intentional, slow life you deserve.

BUY THE SLOW LIVING BOOK HERE! Hi, pretty people! This is my final new episode of 2024, but don’t worry—over the next few weeks, I’ll be sharing encore episodes of some of your favorites that continue to spark questions and conversations. Fresh episodes will be back in 2025, so stay tuned! For this special episode, we’re diving into three misunderstood concepts that many of us navigate every day: code switching, authenticity, and masking. Here’s what we’re talking about: What is Code Switching? Adjusting your language, tone, and behavior to fit different environments like work or social gatherings. What is Masking? Suppressing parts of yourself to fit in or avoid judgment. What Does Authenticity Mean? Showing up as your true, unfiltered self. We’ll also explore how to balance these concepts in a way that feels authentic to you. While code switching and masking aren’t inherently bad, using them intentionally can help create feelings of safety and comfort. Awareness is the key to navigating these behaviors effectively. Here are a few tips we’ll cover: Create flexibility in how you adapt to different environments. Journal about what feels most authentic in certain situations. Notice when you’re masking or code switching and why. Set small intentions to show up as “more you” every day. Join me as we explore how to navigate these complex behaviors while staying true to yourself. Awareness is the first step to finding balance, and I’m here to help you get started. Let’s wrap up 2024 with this thought-provoking conversation and step into the new year with more intention and self-awareness! Want to listen to another episode to expand on this further?
