The Sock Drawer

What if the biggest thing standing in your way isn't time, money, or opportunity?What if it's you?🎙️ In this clip from The Sock Drawer Podcast, my guest Scott Feld shares a powerful reminder that sometimes the obstacles we blame on the world around us are the very ones we're creating for ourselves.We can't always control our circumstances, but we may have more control over what happens next than we realize.And that got me thinking...What's something you once thought was holding you back, only to realize you had the power to change it?I'd love to hear your story in the comments. 👇Connect with Scott:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/scott.feld/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/powerupexperiences/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/scott-feld1/#TheSockDrawerPodcast #ScottFeld #LisaBegley #MindsetShift #LifeLessons #PersonalGrowthNEXT STEPSIf this conversation resonated with you, here are a few ways to stay connected.Subscribe for honest conversations about life’s turning points, the messy middle, and the small steps that change everything.Listen to the full podcast on Apple or Spotify if you prefer audio.Explore more conversations and resources athttps://thesockdrawerpodcast.comAnd if you're navigating a life transition or the messy middle yourself, you can book a 30-minute Messiness Mentor conversation herehttps://thesockdrawerpodcast.comCONNECT WITH LISAWebsitehttps://thesockdrawerpodcast.comBook a 30-Minute Messiness Mentor Conversationhttps://thesockdrawerpodcast.comDONE-FOR-YOU Podcast - If you're interested in building and branding your OWN Podcast, click here:https://bit.ly/YourPodcastDeliveredInstagramhttps://www.instagram.com/thesockdrawerpodcast/Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/lisa.k.begleyTikTokhttps://bit.ly/TikTokSockDrawerLinkedInhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/lisabegley/FOLLOW THE SOCK DRAWER PODCASTApple Podcastshttps://apple.co/4rL9wIuSpotifyhttps://bit.ly/thesockdrawerpodcastonspotifyIf you enjoy the show, following the podcast on Apple or Spotify helps more people discover these conversations.

You don’t have to have it all figured out before you begin.Sometimes, the invitation is simply to take one little step.Amy Nicole shared how getting on one podcast and sharing her story opened the door to something bigger. She was still working her job, but she started making room for the thing she felt called to do.And that’s the reminder: you can start before everything is perfectly aligned. You can build the dream alongside the job. You can take one small step and see where it leads.Because once you start walking in alignment, you might be surprised by what starts coming together.What’s one little step you’ve been feeling led to take?🎙️ Listen to the full conversation on The Sock Drawer Podcast.#TheSockDrawerPodcast #LisaBegley #AmyNicole #TakeTheStep #FollowYourCalling #StartWhereYouAre #Purpose #Dreams #PodcastConnect with Amy Nicole EllisInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/amynicoleellis/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/amynicolespeaks/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AmyNicoleEllis/NEXT STEPSIf this conversation resonated with you, here are a few ways to stay connected.Subscribe for honest conversations about life’s turning points, the messy middle, and the small steps that change everything.Listen to the full podcast on Apple or Spotify if you prefer audio.Explore more conversations and resources athttps://thesockdrawerpodcast.comAnd if you're navigating a life transition or the messy middle yourself, you can book a 30-minute Messiness Mentor conversation herehttps://thesockdrawerpodcast.comCONNECT WITH LISAWebsitehttps://thesockdrawerpodcast.comBook a 30-Minute Messiness Mentor Conversationhttps://thesockdrawerpodcast.comDONE-FOR-YOU Podcast - If you're interested in building and branding your OWN Podcast, click here:https://bit.ly/YourPodcastDeliveredInstagramhttps://www.instagram.com/thesockdrawerpodcast/Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/lisa.k.begleyTikTokhttps://bit.ly/TikTokSockDrawerLinkedInhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/lisabegley/FOLLOW THE SOCK DRAWER PODCASTApple Podcastshttps://apple.co/4rL9wIuSpotifyhttps://bit.ly/thesockdrawerpodcastonspotifyIf you enjoy the show, following the podcast on Apple or Spotify helps more people discover these conversations.

What if the thing standing between you and the life you want isn't your circumstances, your skills, or even your goals?What if it's the story you've been telling yourself about who you are?In this episode of The Sock Drawer Podcast, I sat down with Jesstin Williams, author, coach, and executive management professional, for a deeply honest conversation about identity, mindset, leadership, purpose, and what it really means to become more of yourself.Jesstin shared something that stayed with me:You can lie to yourself all you want, but you're not going to get anywhere.Because real growth begins with truth.Not the polished version.Not the version we think other people want to see.The real one.We talked about learning to acknowledge the things we love about ourselves AND the things we struggle with. About finding people who can lovingly hold us accountable. About why authenticity makes us stronger leaders. And about the courage it takes to stop trying to become someone else.Jesstin's EYEAM philosophy, “Embrace Your Essence as Momentum,” is ultimately an invitation to recognize what is uniquely yours and allow that truth to move you forward.And maybe that's where the real work starts.Not with becoming someone new.But with finally being honest about who you already are.🎙️ Listen to the full conversation with Jesstin Williams on The Sock Drawer Podcast.And if something in this conversation challenged you in a good way, share it with someone who might need to hear it too.#TheSockDrawerPodcast #LisaBegley #JesstinWilliams #PersonalGrowth #Authenticity #SelfAwareness #Leadership #Mindset #Purpose #Identity #PersonalDevelopment #GrowthMindset

Sometimes the thing blocking your creativity isn’t a lack of discipline.It might be the pressure you’ve placed on yourself to know exactly where it’s going.In this deeply honest conversation, I sat down with artist, speaker, and creator Ezra Vancil to talk about creativity, recovery, marriage, faith, rebuilding, and what happens when we finally stop trying to control the outcome.Ezra’s story is not a neat “look what I overcame” story.It’s a story about what happens when you begin again.After years of addiction, depression, broken relationships, lost dreams, and what he calls his “dark years,” Ezra reached a point where he had to let go of the life he thought he was supposed to have.And somewhere in that letting go, he found his way back to himself.Back to his family.Back to his marriage.Back to his music.Back to his creativity.Back to his faith.Back to a life that looked very different from the one he once imagined.One of the things Ezra said that stayed with me was this idea:What if we stopped living for the outcome and started living inside the moment?Because sometimes rebuilding doesn't look like a victory lap.Sometimes it looks like getting up again.Sometimes it looks like sitting quietly before the day begins.Sometimes it looks like creating something without knowing where it will lead.And sometimes, the most beautiful parts of our lives begin when we stop forcing them to happen.This conversation reminded me that you don't have to have your whole life figured out.You just have to ask:How do I want to live today?And then take the next honest step.🎙️ Watch my full conversation with Ezra Vancil on The Sock Drawer Podcast. ⟶ https://youtu.be/msi4momIYYUConnect with Ezra:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ezravancil/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ezravancilmusicInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/ezravancil/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@EzraVancilWebsite: https://ezravancil.com/about-ezra#TheSockDrawerPodcast #LisaBegley #EzraVancil #Creativity #CreativeBlock #Rebuilding #PersonalGrowth #Healing #Faith #Recovery #SelfDiscovery #LifeAfter40 #Transformation #AuthenticLiving #StartAgain

Self-love isn’t selfish. It’s not “me only.”It’s me first, so I can give from a place of overflow, not depletion.Because when we continually ignore ourselves, we eventually have nothing left to give. And the people who depend on us can end up carrying the weight of our exhaustion too.Honouring yourself isn’t taking away from others. It’s what allows you to keep showing up for the people you love without losing yourself in the process.A powerful reminder from my conversation with Marcia Martin on The Sock Drawer Podcast.Watch the full conversation now on YouTube.
