The Messy U-Turn with Shari Teigman

from Happiness Unscripted · host Kristin DeSouza

Send us Fan MailShari Teigman, a creative business strategist and founder of the Maverick approach, joins Kristin DeSouza on Happiness Unscripted to share how a rough divorce as a single mom pushed her to rebuild a life and business that fit her, rather than following roles, rules, and “shoulds.” She describes learning she had been living in relation to others, people-pleasing, and reading rooms instead of hearing herself, and explains how COVID amplified boundary-setting and personal crises for many. Shari emphasizes that happiness isn’t something others can provide and that we’re not responsible for managing others’ discomfort. She outlines a three-part process for change—unpack what you’re carrying, “unbelief” what isn’t yours, and understand where you want to go—so you can act without waiting for perfect clarity and expand the capacity to hold what you truly want.Timestamps00:00 Welcome to Happiness Unscripted00:48 Unscripted & Unstoppable - Introducing Shari Teigman02:17 Origins of the Maverick Method07:20 Finding Your Own Beat10:02 COVID as a Maverick Era13:20 Recognizing When It's Time for Change18:58 When the Body Speaks21:49 Unpack, Unbelieve, Understand30:22 Signed, Sealed, Inspired31:03 Until the Next Unscripted MomentConnect with Shari Teigman👥 Contact:✉️: [email protected]🌐: www.shariteigman.com📱 Social Media:On Instagram:  www.instagram.com/shariteigmanOn LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/shariteigman/✨ Offerings: https://sharidteigman.ac-page.com/TheMaverickWayPrelaunch Don't miss out on getting Shari's book - out in May!
