Becoming in Action
by Sandy Hebert
I am working to awaken a community of meaningful connection for people who are becoming—as leaders, as professionals, as humans. We never fully arrive in our lives. It is a journey not a destination. I hope this podcast supports the ongoing process of becoming and the courage and curiosity that are necessary to have authentic conversations.

The Power of Quiet Leadership: A Conversation with Patti
What does leadership look like when it isn't loud?In this episode, I sit down with my longtime friend Patti, a woman whose impact has never depended on titles, credentials, or being the loudest voice in the room. Patti is one of the most compassionate and effective leaders I've had the privilege of knowing, and her story is a powerful reminder that quiet strength can create lasting change.We talk about the self-doubt that almost kept her from applying for a job because she didn't have a college degree, the courage it took to take that chance anyway, and the leadership philosophy that helped her successfully navigate complex projects and teams throughout her career.Patti also shares lessons from a life filled with reinvention, including raising two children, navigating multiple divorces, taking a leap of faith to move from Florida to Michigan with her partner Adam, becoming a grandmother to four grandchildren, and entering retirement after decades of work and responsibility.Now living on a dirt road off a dirt road, Patti reflects on finding peace, embracing simplicity, and creating a life that feels aligned with who she truly is.In this conversation, we explore:• Why leadership doesn't have to be loud to be powerful• Moving beyond self-doubt and trusting yourself• The value of compassion in leadership• Lessons learned through life's unexpected transitions• Retirement, reinvention, and finding peace in a new season• What it means to create a life that feels true to youListener Reflection Questions:• Where might you be underestimating yourself because of a story you've been telling yourself?• What strengths do you possess that others may not immediately see?• How has your definition of success evolved over time?• Where are you being invited to trust yourself more deeply?• What does peace look like in this season of your life?If this episode resonates with you, share it with someone who needs a reminder that some of the most powerful leaders are the ones who lead with quiet confidence, steady courage, and a generous heart.

A Boy Mom's Mother's Day Musings
Mother's Day stirred up something unexpected in me this year.In this deeply personal episode, I share a part of my story that I've carried quietly for many years. The grief of never having a daughter. As a proud mom of three incredible boys, I've often felt guilty for acknowledging that longing. But through coaching, reflection, and a willingness to sit with difficult emotions, I'm learning that gratitude and grief can exist side by side.I talk about miscarriage, infertility, the imagined daughter we called Ripley, and the dreams we create about what motherhood is supposed to look like. I also reflect on the incredible role Gerard has played in our family, the unique gifts each of my sons has brought to my life, and the ways our expectations can sometimes create suffering when reality doesn't match the stories we've written in our minds.This episode is ultimately about holding space for the tender places within us. The losses that are real, the futures that never happened, and the courage to honor our feelings without shame.If you've ever grieved a version of life you thought you would have, this conversation is for you.Content Warning: This episode includes discussion of miscarriage, infertility, pregnancy loss, unmet expectations around motherhood, and emotional grief. Listener discretion is advised if these topics are tender for you.

The Nourished Recovery: A Conversation with Kerry
This week on the podcast, I’m joined by my cousin Kerry for a conversation about recovery, grief, leadership, creativity, and the long process of becoming yourself again.What started as a reconnection between cousins turned into a deeply honest conversation about the many ways people heal.Kerry shares her journey from a prescription opioid addiction that began after a car accident, to years of alcohol dependence, to finding lasting recovery and community through Celebrate Recovery. We talk about relapse, shame, self-awareness, and the daily practices that help her stay grounded today.But this episode is about so much more than addiction.It’s about motherhood.Holding space for others.Working for 35 years in a male-dominated industry.Learning to lead even when you don’t feel fully ready.Processing the loss of a parent.And discovering creativity later in life through cooking, storytelling, and her YouTube channel, The Nourished Recovery.Kerry’s story is a reminder that healing rarely happens in one big breakthrough. More often, it happens in small honest moments. In conversations. In community. In learning how to feel instead of numb.We also talk about:• the difference between guilt and shame• why mindset matters• how recovery applies far beyond addiction• what it means to truly let people support you• and how creativity can become part of healingThis conversation felt incredibly special to me, and I think it will stay with you too.

Real Life, Real Work: Anger Is Not Danger
In this Real Life, Real Work episode, we explore what happens when someone else’s anger or distress activates our own nervous system.Why do some of us rush to reassure, reframe, fix, or smooth things over the moment emotions get intense? Why can another person’s frustration feel so uncomfortable in our own body?This episode dives into the connection between nervous system activation, people pleasing, conflict avoidance, and emotional safety. We talk about how early experiences can shape the way we respond to anger, why many of us confuse anger with danger, and how those protective patterns may now interfere with the way we want to show up in our relationships, parenting, leadership, and work.We also explore:the difference between anger and aggressionco-regulation and how nervous systems affect one anotherwhy trying to “fix” someone’s emotions can leave them feeling dismissedpractical ways to stay grounded during difficult conversationshow to build more tolerance for emotional discomfortthe role of centering practices, boundaries, and nervous system healingIf you have ever felt responsible for making everyone else okay, this conversation may help you understand why and offer a more grounded way forward.Because real growth is not learning how to control every emotional moment around you.It is learning how to stay present without losing yourself inside of it.This is Real Life, Real Work.

Digging Until You Find Your Thing: A Conversation with Sarah
So many of us build lives that look right on paper before we stop and ask ourselves:But does this actually feel like me?In this episode, my friend Sarah shares the winding path that took her from psychology student to lawyer to stay-at-home mom to therapist in her 40s.What I love most about Sarah’s story is that she kept listening to the quiet voice inside her that said:there is something more true for me than this.We talk about:• chasing approval• success that does not feel aligned• motherhood and identity• starting over later in life• marriage and support• and the courage it takes to keep becoming yourselfOne of my favorite lines from the conversation:“I wanted to show up in my life as the best version of myself, so I kept digging until I found the thing that felt like... this is the thing.”I think this episode will resonate deeply with anyone who has ever felt pulled toward a different version of their life.Listen wherever you get your podcasts.

Not a Dead End
I went for an early morning walk in Napa and ended up at a literal dead end.Standing there, I realized something that completely reframed how I think about change, failure, uncertainty, and identity:I am not the dead end.The road is.In this episode, I talk about the years I spent as a supporting character in my own life, what my divorce taught me about agency, grief, and healing, and why I now believe one of the most important skills we can build is the ability to choose again.I also share honestly about this current season of building my coaching business. The slow burn of it. The doubt. The fear that maybe it will not work. And why I am learning that many things that eventually succeed look flat for a very long time before the curve changes.This episode is about:perceived agency and why it matters for well-beinglearning to trust yourself inside uncertaintygrief, growth, and rebuildingrole modeling “main character energy” for our childrenand letting go of the idea that we need to have the next five years figured outMaybe we only need to decide who we want to be this week.

One Choice, A Lifetime of Change: A Conversation with Chris
Content NoteThis conversation includes discussion of addiction, alcoholism, recovery, and emotional struggle. Please listen with care if these topics are sensitive for you.Chris made one choice at 22 that changed the trajectory of his life.What started as a reluctant step into sobriety, without much intention beyond getting help in the moment, became 25 years of choosing differently. Choosing connection. Choosing growth. Choosing to show up.In this conversation, I sit down with Chris to talk about what it really looks like to build a life one day at a time.We talk about addiction and recovery, and also what comes after. Fatherhood. Friendship. The humility to keep learning. The discipline of staying grounded in relationships that matter.Chris is someone who has been all in on his sobriety, his kids, and the people in his life for decades. And he’s also honest about where he’s still growing, especially when it comes to fully showing up in romantic relationships and letting himself be seen.This is a conversation about the long game. About becoming. About the quiet, daily decisions that shape a life.And about what’s possible when one choice actually holds.

Real Life, Real Work: Saying Yes to Change
She built her career by being the one who said yes.Yes to more responsibility.Yes to filling gaps.Yes to doing whatever it took to make things work.And it worked… until it didn’t.In this episode, I walk through the moment so many high performers hit but don’t always talk about. When the very traits that made you successful start to burn you out. When caring deeply about quality collides with a system that can’t support it. When you realize you can’t keep doing everything at the level you know it deserves.This is a conversation about more than workload.It’s about what happens when success turns into overreliance.When you become the person who absorbs chaos.When burnout starts to disconnect you from your why.And most importantly, it’s about the pivot.We talk about:Why boundaries are professionalism, not rebellionHow to stop making dysfunction look manageableThe power of small, in-the-moment resets to calm your nervous systemHow to approach the stay vs leave decision without treating it as permanentWhy putting timelines on change gives you back controlAnd why wanting more money is not greed, it’s clarityAt the center of it all is a deeper truth:You are not just choosing between jobs.You are choosing who you are becoming.This episode explores the idea of possible selves. The versions of you that different environments will shape, support, or slowly drain. And how to decide what will actually feed your energy, your standards, and your future.If you’ve ever felt like the role that once proved your capability is now costing you something, this episode will meet you there.Because sometimes growth is not about doing more.It’s about choosing better.

Growing up feeling like she didn’t belong. Navigating loss, trauma, and carrying more than anyone should have to carry alone at such a young age. And what it has looked like to find her way back to herself, again and again.We talk about the relationship she has built with her parents over time, the role her friendships have played in her healing, and how becoming a mother has shifted everything.She shares what it means to listen to her son, to trust him, and to let that relationship guide her in a way that feels both instinctive and intentional.We also talk about her mom.

Not Broken: A First Responder’s Path to Healing
What happens when you’ve carried too much for too long?What does it look like to keep showing up on the outside while everything is unraveling on the inside?In this deeply honest conversation, I sit down with Evan, a first responder who spent years serving others while privately carrying the cumulative weight of trauma, loss, stress, and emotional numbness.We talk about the culture of strength and silence, the unseen toll that trauma can take on first responders, and what happens when coping stops working.Joining us is therapist Alice Vandecaveye, who shares how Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) can help the brain process unresolved trauma and reduce the emotional charge of painful experiences.Evan shares how EMDR became a turning point in his life, his marriage, and his ability to feel, communicate, and lead again.This episode is about trauma, healing, resilience, and the truth that asking for help can be one of the strongest things a person does.Topics discussed include trauma, suicide, alcohol misuse, officer-involved shootings, and mental health.If you or someone you love works in service, caregiving, emergency response, or carries more than anyone can see, this conversation is for you.Listener ResourcesIf anything in this conversation brought something up for you, support is available.You don’t have to be in crisis to reach out.

Real Life, Real Work: Comparison and Confidence
Comparison can quietly erode confidence at work. You start second-guessing yourself, staying quiet in meetings, and assuming everyone else has more to offer. In this episode of Real Talk, Real Work, we unpack how comparison becomes the thief of confidence and how to stop letting it run the show.We talk about recognizing when you’re stacking the deck against yourself, reframing what makes you different as your unique value, and using comparison in a healthy way that helps you grow instead of shrink. We also explore why leadership doesn’t have to look one way and how some of the most impactful leaders lead through steadiness, curiosity, creativity, and quiet confidence.If you’ve ever wondered whether you measure up in the room, this episode is for you. Your value may be found in the very things that make you different.

She Knew: Trusting Your Instincts When the Answers Aren't There Yet
When answers don’t come easily, how do you know when to keep pushing?In this deeply moving episode, Laurie shares the story of knowing something wasn’t right with her son, Grant, even when symptoms were subtle, tests were normal, and reassurance came from every direction. What began as small concerns slowly built into a years-long journey of appointments, second opinions, self-doubt, persistence, and ultimately the diagnosis no parent expects.Laurie opens up about trusting her instincts, advocating when no one else could fully see what she saw, and navigating the fear, uncertainty, and emotional weight of fighting for your child.This conversation is about more than one family’s medical journey. It’s about intuition, resilience, motherhood, partnership, and finding the courage to keep asking questions when the answers aren’t there yet.If you’ve ever wondered whether to trust that quiet inner knowing, this episode is for you.

The Yield Sign: An Invitation to Grow
What if the moments you feel the most emotional are actually the moments where growth is happening?In this episode, I share what it’s looked like for me to shift from a definition of growth rooted in learning to one rooted in feeling.When my son comes home to visit, I want it to feel like pure joy. And part of it does. But there’s also fear, pressure, and emotion tied to a past experience that didn’t go the way I hoped.For a long time, I judged that. Tried to override it. Told myself I should feel differently.Now I’m learning to see those moments as a yield sign.Not something to fix.Not something to push through.But an invitation to notice.We talk about:Why emotional growth can feel activating in your bodyHow shame shows up when your feelings don’t match what you think they should beThe pattern of self-blame as a form of controlAnd what it looks like to shift from being a fixer to a noticerThis episode is personal. It’s about motherhood, pressure, honesty, and what it really means to “do the work.”Because growth isn’t always about becoming more.Sometimes it’s about allowing yourself to feel what’s already there.

Real Life, Real Work: Connection Before Correction
In this first Real Life, Real Work episode, I talk about what really happens when we try to strip the “human” out of hard conversations at work.So many of us have been taught to separate our work self from who we are everywhere else. To stick to the facts. To stay neutral. To be professional.But low empathy isn’t neutral. It creates distance. And when there’s no connection, even the most accurate feedback doesn’t land.I share a real client example and walk through a different way to approach these moments. One that isn’t about fixing people, but about helping them access their own clarity and capacity to grow.This episode is about connection before correction, and why leading with heart isn’t soft. It’s what actually makes you more effective.

Pouring Into the City: Women, Wine and the Courage to Build
There are seasons in life when we’re just trying to keep up.And then there are seasons when we realize, we’re actually building something.In this conversation, I sit down with Kathy, a mother of four, recent law school graduate, community leader, and co-founder of Toledo’s Share, to talk about what it really looks like to build a meaningful life in the middle of a full one.We talk about the moment she chose to go to law school after witnessing injustice.The reality of balancing motherhood and ambition.And the quiet but powerful decision to stop chasing what looks successful and start pursuing what actually feels aligned.Kathy shares honestly about guilt, identity, partnership, and what it means to redefine your sense of worth beyond achievement.And one of the lines that stayed with me most:“I’m not chasing money anymore. I’m chasing happiness.”This episode is about courage.About letting go of the performance.And about building something slowly, intentionally, and in a season that may not look perfect, but is exactly where you are meant to begin.So, as you move through your day or week you might want to ask yourself a few questions.What am I building right now?What am I chasing?And is it actually making me happy?

Centering Practice: Coming Back to Enough
If you listened to the last episode and found yourself sitting with some uncomfortable questions, this is for you.This is a short, 5-minute centering practice for those moments when your mind is racing,when you’re feeling behind,or when that quiet question starts to creep in:Does this even matter?In this meditation, I guide you back to something simpler.Back to your breath.Back to your body.Back to the present moment.Not to fix anything.Not to figure it all out.Just to help you come back to a steadier placewhere you can remind yourself:You’re not behind.You don’t need proof right now.And you can still show up, even in the uncertainty.Come back to this anytime you need a reset.

Does This Even Matter?
There’s a question I’ve been sitting with lately:Does this even matter?In this episode, I’m unpacking something that has been quietly driving a lot of my thoughts, emotions, and reactions over the past few weeks… my need to feel like I matter.After leaving my corporate role, I didn’t just lose a job. I lost the structure, the feedback, and the very visible ways I knew I was making an impact. And without that, I’ve found myself questioning everything. Am I doing enough? Am I behind? Is any of this actually working?But as I worked through a pretty emotional week, I realized something uncomfortable but important:Some of what I’ve been doing hasn’t been about showing up. It’s been about wanting to matter.And those are not the same thing.In this episode, I talk about:what social science research says about mattering and why it’s so critical during times of transitionhow losing built-in roles and structure can shake your sense of identity and worththe difference between showing up and seeking validationwhy we don’t actually get to decide if something we do “matters” to someone elseand how I’m shifting from chasing proof… to focusing on how I show upI also share a simple practice I’ve started to help ground myself in this season, and a few reflection questions you can sit with if you’re feeling something similar.If you’re in a season where things feel uncertain, unstructured, or hard to measure… this one is for you.You’re not behind.You’re just no longer being externally paced.

When Plan B Turns Out to Be Better Than Plan A: A Conversation with Emily
In this conversation, I sit down with Emily Crosby, former collegiate athlete, higher education leader, and now entrepreneur and founder of Throw & Co, to explore what it really looks like to outgrow a path that once felt exactly right.Emily shares her journey from rowing at Notre Dame to building a career in higher education, where she spent years creating meaningful experiences and leading teams. On paper, everything made sense. But internally, something began to shift.We talk about that moment, the quiet realization that nothing is necessarily wrong, but something is no longer aligned.This episode is about identity, community, and the courage it takes to ask yourself a deeper question: Is this still who I am becoming?Emily opens up about the fear of leaving stability, the internal questioning that comes with making a change, and how reconnecting with what brings her joy, gathering people, creating intentional spaces, and putting care into the details, led her to build something of her own.This is a conversation about trusting yourself, honoring evolution, and recognizing that sometimes the path you didn’t plan becomes the one that fits you best.If you’ve ever felt that quiet pull toward something different, this episode is for you.

Midlife Isn't a Crisis. It's a Becoming
At some point in midlife, something quietly shifts.From the outside, life may look exactly the way it was supposed to.You’ve built a career.You’ve shown up for your family.You’ve carried responsibility for years.But internally a different question begins to surface:Is this how I want to live the next 20 or 30 years of my life?For decades our culture has labeled this moment a midlife crisis. But the research in developmental psychology suggests something very different is happening.In this episode, I explore why midlife is often not a crisis at all, but a transition in perspective.A shift from achievement to contribution.From proving ourselves to expressing ourselves.From building identity to integrating who we’ve always been.I also share a personal reflection about imagining a reunion with my 16-year-old self. The girl I once believed was too much.Midlife has allowed me to see her differently now. Not with judgment, but with compassion. And that shift in perspective has changed the way I understand growth, identity, and what it means to truly become ourselves.In this conversation, I introduce the Becoming Framework, a model I developed through my coaching work that describes four phases many people move through during this stage of life:• Awareness — realizing something inside you is changing• Clarity — understanding who you are and what matters now• Alignment — reshaping your life so it matches your values• Expression — living authentically and contributing in meaningful waysI also talk about the psychology and neuroscience of midlife, and why this stage of life may actually be one of the most powerful periods for personal growth and change.If you’ve ever felt:• Successful but unfulfilled• Responsible but depleted• Capable but uncertain• Self-aware but stuckYou’re not broken.You may simply be in the middle of an important developmental transition.Midlife isn’t the beginning of decline.In many ways, it’s the beginning of becoming.If you’d like support navigating your own midlife transition, you can learn more about my coaching work at:🌐 https://biapersonalcoaching.comFollow along on Instagram:📸 @biapersonalcoaching

Walking Away From Success to Find Yourself Again: A Conversation with Mary
Some people know from a young age who they are meant to be.For Mary, that identity was always tied to art.Growing up in Timmins, Ontario as the only girl in a family rooted in the lumber industry, Mary found early refuge in painting. What began as a childhood escape eventually led her to study fine art and build a career working inside major institutions like the Royal Ontario Museum and the Toledo Museum of Art.But over time, something unexpected happened.The business of art began to replace the love of it.Meetings, budgets, and management responsibilities slowly pushed creativity aside. At one point, Mary realized she was walking past masterpieces by Monet and Van Gogh without even noticing them.So she made a courageous decision: she walked away.In this conversation we explore:• how identity evolves across seasons of life• the quiet courage of redefining success• creativity as a relationship that can ebb and return• why art can sometimes wait patiently for usToday Mary has returned to creating bold, expressive work after decades of living, raising a family, designing homes, and building a life rich with beauty and experience.This episode is about the long arc of creativity and the courage it takes to come back to what you love.

Criticism: Proof You Showed Up
Criticism is one of those words that carries weight before we even understand why. It tightens our chest. It makes us brace. It whispers, you messed up… you’re not enough… you failed.But what if criticism isn’t the enemy?In this episode, I’m unpacking the fear of criticism, how it quietly shapes our decisions, shrinks our visibility, and keeps us choosing approval over alignment. Because often, we’re not afraid of failing… we’re afraid of being seen failing.We’ll talk about:Why criticism feels like a threat to our identityThe difference between constructive feedback and destructive criticismHow fear of judgment keeps us smallThe neuroscience behind why delivery mattersHow high performers unintentionally create feedback problemsPractical ways to receive feedback without collapsingHow to give feedback without harming trust or connectionI’ll also share personal stories — from navigating feedback in my own marriage to leading teams — and the mindset shifts that have helped me reframe criticism as data instead of a diagnosis.The goal isn’t to love criticism.The goal is to stop letting it decide who you are allowed to be.If you’ve ever stayed quiet, played small, or edited yourself to avoid judgment — this conversation is for you.Let’s redefine what criticism means… and learn how to use it instead of letting it use us.

Becoming Before You Are Ready: A Conversation with Holly
In this episode, I sit down with Holly, a woman who proves that confidence isn’t something you wait for, it’s something you build through action.With no formal training in construction, Holly taught herself how to finish her entire basement. Years later, she turned curiosity and persistence into a thriving Etsy business that now reaches customers around the world. Along the way, she also became a marathon runner, learning firsthand that progress — in fitness, business, and life — comes from showing up consistently, even when it’s hard.This conversation explores courage, imposter syndrome, resilience, and the power of believing that “everything is figureoutable.” Holly’s story is a reminder that becoming isn’t about credentials. It’s about willingness, persistence, and taking the next step before you feel ready.If you’ve ever felt underqualified, stuck, or unsure where to begin, this episode will inspire you to start anyway.

Becoming Together
What if community isn’t something we have to create… but something we awaken?In this episode, I reflect on my own journey from childhood loneliness to building a deeply meaningful circle of connection as an adult. Through stories of friendship, hosting gatherings, learning to ask for help, and letting go of control, I explore what it really means to belong—and how community is formed through shared gifts, curiosity, and courage.You’ll hear reflections on:Why community requires both vulnerability and participationThe difference between “throwers” and “goers” — and why both matterLetting people show up for you (even when it feels uncomfortable)How relationships shape who we are becomingCreating space for unexpected connection and magicCommunity doesn’t have to look perfect or polished. Sometimes it’s a ride home, a shared meal, a conversation, or simply someone willing to stay.If you’ve ever felt lonely, longed for deeper connection, or wondered how to find your people, this conversation is for you.Because becoming isn’t something we do alone.And we were never meant to.

Becoming Through Change - A Conversation with Bailey Floyd
Becoming Through Change with BaileyWhat happens when the life you imagined quietly falls apart and you choose to keep becoming anyway?In this episode of BiA – Becoming in Action, I sit down with my friend Bailey, whose last decade has been defined by profound transition. When I met her ten years ago, she was a stay-at-home mom with an infant. Since then, she has navigated miscarriage, returning to work and building a career, divorce, a significant weight-loss journey, re-entering the dating world, and is now newly engaged.This conversation isn’t about reinvention for show. It’s about the real, often unseen work of becoming, learning who you are in the middle of change, choosing growth when certainty disappears, and honoring the many versions of yourself along the way.We talk about:Letting go of identities that no longer fitRebuilding confidence after loss and disruptionEffort vs. ease during seasons of transitionWhat it means to choose yourself—again and againIf you’re in a season of change, questioning who you’re becoming, or learning how to move forward with more intention and self-trust, this episode is for you.Because becoming isn’t about having it all figured out. It’s about staying in motion.
