But Tracy Poizner went and combined them into something that sounds niche and ends up being wildly practical, and the results from her beta test will make you want to know your energy type immediately if you don't already.What we get into:What Bach flower remedies actually are, how they're made, and why "there's no stuff in it" is actually the whole pointHow Edward Bach figured out a century ago what we now call the mind-body connection & gut microbiomeHow Tracy mapped flower essences to the five human design energy types and why the not-self emotional patterns were the keyThe conference download story that accidentally became her entire business modelWhat "reverse affirmations" are and why naming the pattern works better than affirming the idealThe beta test data: 57 to 71% improvement in top patterns at four weeks, and what that actually looks like in people's livesWhy even experienced deconditioning practitioners are getting results they couldn't get anywhere elseAbout Tracy Poizner: Tracy is a 28-year classical homeopath and manifesting generator who has spent the last several years mapping Bach flower essences to human design energy types.

FYI: You can watch this episode on YouTube HEREWhat if the reason you can't stop overworking has nothing to do with ambition and everything to do with survival? In this episode, I sit down with chartered psychologist and trauma expert Farya Barlas, founder of The Method, for one of the most intellectually rich and personally resonant conversations I've had on this show.Farya has spent over 20 years working with high-achieving women, and what she's identified is a pattern that most of us don't even recognize in ourselves: the way early survival strategies become the invisible architecture of our businesses — and why that architecture eventually becomes a ceiling.We get into:Why the most damaging trauma is the kind that gets rewarded — and why high achievers are especially vulnerableThe difference between trauma-led success and reparative success (this one will stop you in your tracks)Why your nervous system might be sabotaging your expansion — even when you want what you're building towardHow identity conditioning from childhood shows up as pricing, hiring, and visibility decisions in your businessThe visualization exercise Farya uses with every new client that reveals exactly where your internal capacity needs to growFarya is also the host of the From Trauma to CEO podcast, which I highly recommend — her framing is unlike anything else out there.🔗 Links mentioned:Farya's website + The MethodFrom Trauma to CEO podcastFollow Farya on InstagramWant to work with Renee?

Last Day to Join Us for the SPRING SENIOR SPRINT - click HERE for info and to sign upShow NotesWhat happens when the business you built… no longer fits the woman you’ve become?In this honest and layered conversation, I sit down with messaging strategist Jen Liddy to talk about something so many women quietly experience but rarely say out loud: outgrowing your own business.We talk about the subtle whispers that show up before things fall apart. The identity shifts that happen in midlife. The realization that “best practices” don’t always equal alignment. And the courage it takes to pause, recalibrate, and evolve without lighting everything on fire.Jen shares what it looked like to intentionally de-scale her business after realizing her offers were financially draining and energetically depleting. We dig into the patterns that follow us from family systems into entrepreneurship. The pressure to keep doing. The fear of slowing down. And how messaging, credibility, and trust all shift when you finally start telling the truth about what you actually want.This episode isn’t about burnout hacks. It’s about identity. Capacity. And choosing evolution over collapse.Inside this conversation, we explore:How to recognize when you’re outgrowing your businessThe difference between pausing and quittingWhy “success” can quietly stop feeling goodHow motherhood, empty nesting, and business identity are deeply connectedWhat it really means to listen to the whispers before the piano falls on your headHow to recalibrate your messaging when you’ve changedIf you’ve been feeling the tension between who you were when you started and who you are now… this one is going to hit.Jen also shares her new messaging diagnostic to help you identify where the real gaps are in your marketing so you can stop overhauling everything and focus on what actually matters and you can get it for only $7 ($40 off!) with the code RENEE here: https://www.jenliddy.com/brand-positioning Connect with Jen on LinkedInWATCH THIS ON YOUTUBEWant to work with Renee?

It looks like holding it all together while quietly unraveling inside.In this episode, Renee sits down with therapist and nervous system–first mentor Ashley McDonald for a deep, honest conversation about the kind of burnout that hides behind ambition, perfectionism, and success. The kind where you’re still performing, still producing, still showing up, but your body and nervous system are waving red flags you can’t ignore anymore.They talk about how trauma and conditioning shape the way women build businesses, why pushing harder is often a survival response, and how values drift without us realizing it. This conversation is reflective, uncomfortable in the best way, and incredibly grounding for anyone who feels like they’re “fine” but knows something is off.Ashley also shares details about her upcoming retreat in Tulum, a five-day immersive experience designed to help high-achieving women step out of survival mode, reconnect with their values, and integrate real change that actually sticks.Mentioned:Ash's site and podcastWant to work with Renee?

Grab the SENIOROLOGIE BUNDLE here!You can build a business that looks successful on paper and still feel strangely disconnected from it.In this episode, Renee sits down with Caryn Gillen to name something most entrepreneurs feel but rarely talk about: identity debt. That quiet accumulation that happens when your business keeps running on an old version of you… even though you’ve changed.This conversation goes beyond surface-level mindset talk. Renee and Caryn explore why success can start to feel heavy, why strategy stops working when identity is misaligned, and how leadership becomes harder when your nervous system is stuck in survival mode. They talk about the cost of building from “shoulds,” the difference between comfort and alignment, and why freedom has to be designed into a business, not earned later.If you’ve ever thought, “I don’t want to quit, but I also can’t keep doing it like this,” this episode will meet you right there. It’s honest, grounded, and full of perspective-shifting insights about identity, leadership, and staying in business for the long haul without abandoning yourself.Listen in if you’re ready to understand what’s actually underneath your burnout, restlessness, or desire to reinvent, and why clarity doesn’t come from pushing harder, but from getting more honest.CONNECT WITH CARYN:Grab her freebieInstagramWant to work with Renee?

Grab the Unavoidable workshop for $100 off until January 31In this episode of Tried & True with a Dash of Woo, Renee breaks down the moment where logic meets magic, and why what we often dismiss as “woo” is actually neuroscience in disguise.If you’ve ever felt skeptical of manifestation, vision boards, or energy work, or you’ve tried them and wondered why nothing seems to stick, this conversation brings clarity without bypassing reality. Renee explains how the subconscious mind, nervous system, and body work together to create lasting change, and why mindset alone is never enough if your system still feels unsafe.You’ll hear why intuition, visualization, and symbolic practices speak directly to the subconscious, how the nervous system always chooses familiar over ideal, and why so many people unconsciously sabotage the very things they say they want. This episode walks you through how energy is not just a metaphor but a measurable biological process, how emotional frequency and regulation shape what you’re able to receive, and why integration matters more than positive thinking. Renee also offers a simple four-part framework to turn the “woo” into a grounded, repeatable practice you can actually use in your daily life.If you’re tired of forcing growth, overthinking your next move, or feeling like your body isn’t on board with your goals, this episode will help you understand why, and what to do instead.Want to work with Renee?

Have feedback? Text us! New Year’s Eve often comes with pressure to plan, optimize, and decide who you’re going to be next. But before you set goals, choose a word, or map out another strategy, there’s something more important to do.Tell the truth about the year you just lived.In this New Year’s Eve solo episode, Renee invites you to slow down and reflect honestly on what actually worked, what quietly cost you too much, and what your body and nervous system are no longer available for carrying into the next year. This conversation isn’t about motivation or hustle. It’s about self-honesty, integrity, and building your next chapter from a place that feels grounded and sustainable.Renee breaks down why so many goals fail by February, how planning from denial keeps you stuck in the same patterns year after year, and why clarity doesn’t come from doing more but from listening more closely to yourself. She also shares a simple year-end reflection you can do in under 15 minutes to help you close this year with intention instead of pressure.Before you plan anything for the year ahead, take a moment to ask yourself these three questions:• What worked this year, but took more from me than I want to give again? • Where did I override my own boundaries just to keep things moving? • What am I secretly hoping I don’t have to do again next year?This episode is for creative entrepreneurs and high-achieving women who are done repeating the same cycles and ready to build from truth instead of expectation. It’s an invitation to pause, reflect, and move into the new year with clarity that actually sticks.Listen in if you’re ready to close this year honestly and step into the next one with intention, self-trust, and a deeper sense of alignment.Grab the freebie she mentioned HEREWant to work with Renee?

Grab my free google doc "Mapping Your Next Era" + a 13 Wishes Ritual here:https://reneebowen.myflodesk.com/2026prompts Show Notes:The holidays have a way of turning the volume down on the noise and turning the truth way up.When the shoots slow down, the emails pause, and the usual distractions fall away, many successful women find themselves questioning everything. Their business. Their motivation. Their direction. Even themselves. And what makes it harder is that, on paper, things look fine. Maybe even really good.In this Christmas Eve solo episode, Renee speaks directly to the quiet discomfort so many creative entrepreneurs feel this time of year. Not burnout exactly, but a restlessness, a heaviness, or a sense that something no longer fits the way it used to. She explores why this season amplifies doubt, why stillness can feel unsettling for high-achieving women, and why questioning your path does not mean you are ungrateful, broken, or off track.This episode is an honest conversation about outgrowing old versions of yourself, the nervous system shifts that happen when momentum slows, and why your body often knows before your brain does that change is coming.

Instead of the intense, dissociative experiences most people imagine, Sharon walks us through a gentler psycholytic approach that keeps you fully aware, engaged, and able to participate in your healing.We talk about how low-dose ketamine quiets the narrative mind, creates a sense of emotional spaciousness, and opens the door for real neuroplastic change. Sharon breaks down the science behind it, the spiritual implications of working in this state, and why this method is becoming a lifeline for people navigating depression, anxiety, trauma, and burnout.If you’ve ever been curious about the bridge between consciousness work, neuroscience, and practical mental health support, this episode will pull you in immediately.Find out more: Joyous.teamWant to work with Renee?

BF SALES are HERE - grab UNAVOIDABLE asap before the price increasesTHE SHOW: If you've been coasting on autopilot, feeling strangely numb in a business you built with your whole heart, or wondering why midlife suddenly feels like a full-blown identity crisis, this episode is your wake-up call. A lot of creatives hit their 40s and 50s only to realize comfort has quietly become a cage and the spark they used to trust has fizzled into burnout, resentment, or a “who even am I anymore” spiral.We’re talking uncomfortable truths, why your nervous system is fighting every change you say you want, and why no amount of strategy will move the needle if you’re operating from misalignment. If you’re nodding along because you know you’ve been keeping yourself safe instead of moving toward what’s actually calling you, you need to listen all the way through.And if you’re tired of repeating the same year on loop, if you’re craving clarity about who you’re becoming next, or if you’re ready to get out of your own way for real, the Unavoidable class is the work your future self has been begging you to do. I’ll also give you the quick rundown on my Black Friday deals, including Level Up, Creative Team Method, Senior Sunday, my pricing class, and Calibrate — but make no mistake, Unavoidable is the big one.If your comfort has become the cage, it’s time to get your spark back.

Have feedback? Text us! What if the key to transforming your life isn't just positive thinking but actually lies deeper in your nervous system? When Kathryn Spears walked away from her "dream job" in marketing, she discovered that beneath her perfectionism, overachieving, and workaholism lay trauma responses that kept her disconnected from her body and true self.In this mind-opening conversation, Kathryn reveals the critical distinction between mindset work and nervous system regulation. While affirmations and visualization have their place, they can't override a dysregulated nervous system that's constantly signaling danger. Your brain processes 400 billion pieces of information through filters shaped by past experiences, and when you're stuck in survival mode, even the best mindset tools remain inaccessible.The signs of dysregulation are everywhere if you know what to look for: anxiety, perfectionism, task-jumping with urgency, physical tension, gut issues, and that bone-deep exhaustion at day's end. These aren't just inconveniences - they're your nervous system desperately trying to communicate with you. Whether you're struggling with perfectionism, experiencing unexplained physical symptoms, or simply feeling stuck despite doing all the "right" things, this episode offers a fresh perspective and practical tools to begin your regulation journey. Your body is speaking to you - are you ready to listen?Connect with Kathryn: https://kathrynspears.co/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kathryn-spears/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kathrynspears.co/Want to work with Renee?

What if the very thing you're avoiding is the thing that sets you free?In this solo episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on a conversation that’s long overdue — especially in the self-help, coaching, and creative entrepreneurship world. We’ve been sold a watered-down version of alignment that’s starting to feel like permission to do nothing.But let me say it loud and clear: 💥 Discipline is not punishment. It’s how you protect your joy. 💥 Alignment without action is just avoidance in disguise.I’m sharing hard truths, neuroscience-backed insights, and stories from my own clients about what really changes when you stop waiting to feel ready — and start choosing to lead yourself with intention.You’ll walk away with:A powerful reframe on what “flow” actually meansWhy your brain is always looking for proof — and how to give it better cluesHow discipline builds actual freedom, not burnoutThe difference between following joy and chasing comfortAnd why “motivation” isn’t your missing piece — devotion isIf you’re tired of dancing around your potential and ready to actually live it — this one’s for you.IS ELEVATE RIGHT FOR YOU? Elevate is special.
