Episode 62: What’s Really Holding You Back: (It’s Not Your Work Ethic) with Amy Kemp

High-capacity women often believe that if they work a little harder, try a little more, or push through one more challenge, things will finally fall into place. But what if the real barrier isn’t effort… it’s our thought habits?  In this episode, I sit down with leadership coach and author Amy Kemp to talk about the subconscious thought patterns that quietly shape our decisions, our confidence, and the way we show up in work, motherhood, and life.  Amy shares insights from her book I See You and her work coaching hundreds of female leaders on how to recognize the internal narratives that keep us stuck, even when we’re doing all the “right” things.  In this conversation, we explore:  Why you can’t outwork your thought habits  How high-achieving women unknowingly sabotage their own progress  The power of recognizing and replacing subconscious thought patterns  Why boundaries, rhythm, and even play matter more than we think  The invisible weight of unpaid labor many women carry  This episode is for the woman who feels capable, driven, and committed but sometimes wonders why things still feel harder than they should.  You may not need to work harder. But you may need to think differently.   Connect with Amy  Website: www.amykemp.com   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/amykempinc/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/amykempinc  LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/amykempinc   Link to Purchase I See You: https://www.amazon.com/See-You-Guide-Women-More-Without/dp/1774584425/ref=sr_1_1  Take the FREE Habit Finder Assessment here: https://amykemp.com/habit-finder-assessment/    Connect with Denise of Working Moms Redefined:    Catch full episodes and subscribe to The Working Moms Redefined Podcast on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@WorkingMomsRedefined    Click here for the 9 Minutes a Day for a Lifetime of Connection Masterclass!     Listen to The Working Moms Redefined Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart Radio and Amazon Music.
