Life Check Yourself EP 509: The Sneaky Ways Women Self Abandon And How To Stop
On this episode, I’m joined by Megan Walrod—writer, speaker, and transformational guide whose journey from overachieving to aligned living will crack open something deep inside you. Megan walked away from a life that looked “perfect on paper” to rediscover her voice, power, and soul’s deeper calling. What she found? A life of freedom, joy, and magnetic abundance that didn’t require her to hustle, perform, or prove.
🌟 3 Takeaways to Anchor In:
- Real wealth begins with honoring your inner truth.
- Doing less can actually open the portal to more abundance.
- Letting go of the “good girl” creates space for authentic power.
1. The Cost of Over-Giving and Performing ⏰ [00:06:10]
“It looked like the dream life, and yet I was feeling more and more empty inside.”
This moment reminds us that external success without inner alignment leads to depletion, not fulfillment. When our energy is tied to validation or performance, we burn out—not just physically, but spiritually. Letting go of over-giving is how we begin to reclaim joy, peace, and power.
2. How Doing Less Becomes a Money Magnet ⏰ [00:17:45]
“I realized the less I did from a place of force, the more space I had for miracles.”
Shifting from hustle to receptivity doesn’t mean giving up ambition—it means aligning energy with intention. When effort is replaced by embodiment, creativity and opportunities multiply. It’s not about stopping, it’s about syncing with a higher rhythm.
3. Breaking the “Good Girl” Spell ⏰ [00:27:30]
“The moment I stopped trying to be liked, I started being respected—and paid.”
Releasing the need to please creates magnetic confidence. True power isn’t loud or aggressive—it’s grounded in self-worth. When the good-girl conditioning fades, bold choices rise. And those bold choices lead to new levels of success and self-expression.
