She Is Courageous Podcast with Shelley Bosworth

It's not always that you’re not scared of failing in public.What if I said I think you’re more scared of what you’ll say to yourself if you don’t follow through.This episode is about the failure no one sees. The promises you make to yourself. The habit you said you’d build. The goal you swore this would be the year for. And then… you didn’t do it.Private failure hits differently. Not because others judge you. But because you judge yourself. And that slowly chips away at your self-trust.In this honest, straight-talking episode, I’m unpacking why letting yourself down feels so heavy, and how to rebuild trust without shame, perfection or dramatic reinvention.You’ll hear how to:Recognise when self-judgement is becoming your identityShift from shame to self-trust after you miss the markBuild courage through small, repeatable micro-commitmentsCourage isn’t in the big declarations. It’s in the quiet decisions no one else sees.If this resonated, come and find me on Instagram @shelleybosworthofficial and tell me: what’s one promise you’re going to make to yourself this week — and keep?And if someone came to mind while listening, share this episode with them.Want more of this kind of real, practical mindset work?The She Is Courageous Collective is currently closed to new members, but Courageous Connections is open.

January can feel like a pressure cooker. Big goals. Big plans. And then reality hits, illness, exhaustion, curveballs you didn’t ask for. If you’re heading into February feeling like you’ve already fallen behind, this episode is for you.In this solo episode, Shelley shares honestly about a January that didn’t go to plan and challenges the story that says a slow or messy start means failure. It doesn’t. January isn’t the make-or-break of your year, and you’re not off track just because things look different to what you expected.This is about course-correcting without drama. Letting go of the pressure. And choosing momentum over self-criticism.Inside the episode, you’ll learn how to:Challenge the belief that January defines your entire yearReflect on what actually went well, even if it wasn’t what you plannedCreate momentum with one small, realistic move this weekShelley also shares a simple framework, reflect, realign, reignite, to help you reset without starting from scratch.February is wide open. You’re allowed to begin again.If this resonates, tag Shelley on social media and share the one thing you’re committing to this week. Saying it out loud might be the nudge you need, and Shelley might just send you a message back.Want more of this kind of real, practical mindset work?The She Is Courageous Collective is currently closed to new members, but Courageous Connections is open.

If you’re constantly overcommitting, overexplaining, or second-guessing how others will react to your decisions, this episode is for you.People pleasing often gets dressed up as being “nice”. But under the surface, it’s fear. Fear of conflict. Fear of disconnection. Fear of being misunderstood or rejected. And left unchecked, it quietly turns into self-sabotage.In this solo episode, Shelley breaks down why people pleasing isn’t a personality trait or a weakness — it’s a learned habit rooted in safety. She shares how it shows up in business, leadership, and relationships, and why your nervous system keeps choosing approval over honesty.Most importantly, she walks you through practical, realistic shifts to start disrupting the pattern without swinging to the other extreme.You’ll hear how to build clarity, courage, and confidence — without becoming rude, harsh, or someone you’re not.In this episode, you’ll learn how to:Recognise where people pleasing is running on autopilotAsk what you actually want before defaulting to yesPractise saying no without overexplaining or managing reactionsIf people pleasing is costing you your energy, your voice, or your alignment, this conversation will help you start choosing yourself — one honest moment at a time.CTADoors to the Collective might be closed, but Courageous Connections is open — our free monthly networking session for women in business.

You’re showing up. You’re doing the work. You’re busy, consistent, and ticking the boxes.And yet … nothing’s really shifting. Annoying isn't it!In this episode, Shelley breaks down five common reasons you can be in constant motion but still feel stuck. Not because you’re lazy or doing it wrong, but because the way you’re moving might be driven by habit, fear, or other people’s expectations.This is a straight-talking conversation about awareness. About noticing the patterns that keep you busy but not fulfilled. And about why doing more isn’t the answer, choosing differently is.You’ll hear Shelley explore:How reacting instead of choosing keeps you stuckWhy external validation can and probably will drain your motivationThe difference between activity and true alignmentHow staying in the familiar can feel safe but hold you backWhy pausing might be the most courageous move you makeIf you’ve ever thought, “I’m doing everything I’m supposed to, so why am I not getting anywhere?” this episode will help you slow down, get honest, and reset your direction.If you recognised yourself in these patterns, take Shelley’s Self-Leadership Style Quiz. It takes 4–5 minutes and will help you understand how you lead yourself, where you’re getting stuck, and what to focus on next.

Do you keep saying you don’t know what you want, or that you don’t trust yourself to decide anymore?This episode offers a different truth.You haven’t lost your self-trust. You’ve been outsourcing it.Shelley breaks down how constant advice, expert opinions, mentors, algorithms and even AI can slowly drown out your own voice. What starts as being sensible and strategic turns into hesitation, overthinking, and delayed decisions, and that’s what really chips away at your confidence.This is an episode about what self-trust actually is, why it feels harder than ever to access, and how to rebuild it without affirmations, or pretending to be certain.You’ll hear why courage isn’t about making the “right” decision, it’s about being self-led, even without proof.In this episode, you’ll learn how to:Recognise where you’re giving your authority awaySpot the decisions you delay even though you already know the answerRebuild self-trust through small, practical actionsYou already know more than you think you do. Your self-trust isn’t gone, it’s just buried under noise.Doors to the She Is Courageous Collective might be closed, but Courageous Connections is open ,our free monthly global networking session for women in business.

The world is louder than ever. More opinions. More advice. More polished confidence on display.And yet, so many truly capable women are still stuck, not because they don’t know what to do, but because they’re waiting to feel ready.In this first episode of 2026, I come back to the core of the She Is Courageous Podcast and revisits the truth that started it all: courage still comes before confidence, and it matters now more than ever.I unpack how confidence has become performative, how AI and social media blur identity and certainty, and why waiting for confidence is often the very thing keeping you still. This is as always one of those grounded, straight-talking reminders that clarity, self-trust and confidence are built through action, not before it.If you’ve been circling the same decisions, overthinking your next move, or questioning your instinct, this episode will bring you back to what actually creates momentum.You’ll hear how to:Recognise where you’re waiting to feel ready instead of movingSeparate real confidence from performance and approvalTake one small, courageous step that gives your brain new proofCourage isn’t about speed.

You know that idea you can’t stop circling,  the one that keeps tugging at you, but you just can’t quite commit to? If you're nodding then his episode is for you. This week, I’m joined by Victoria Myers, founder of The Small Retailer Network, who knows exactly what it’s like to rebuild from scratch. After moving countries, raising two small children, and walking away from a steady income, Victoria chose courage over comfort to create the business and community she wished existed. We talk about what it really looks like to return to work after a career break, the realities of launching a product-based business in 2025, and the messy truth of starting again. Victoria’s story is the perfect reminder that confidence doesn’t come first - courage does. Grab a cuppa, hit play, and let this be the nudge you need to finally go all in on what’s been tugging at you.   Victoria Myers Victoria Myers is a Retail Business Mentor, keynote speaker, and community leader with over 25 years of experience in the retail industry.

Ever wake up already in a mood? Tired. Irritated. Over it before the day’s even started. You’re not doing anything wrong, you’re just human. But here’s the thing: how you start your day shapes everything that follows. In this episode, Shelley shares what happened after a sleepless night, a grumpy morning, and a moment that could’ve easily spiralled into a full-blown “write-off-the-day” scenario. Instead, she stopped herself, took back control, and turned it into today’s lesson. You’ll learn five simple, practical mindset shifts to start your day as the leader of your life, not the victim of your thoughts. No cheesy affirmations. No 5am miracle routines. Just real steps that help you reset your mind, move your body, and choose what actually matters. Because you can’t always control the sleep, the weather, or your inbox, but you can decide how you show up. If you’ve been waking up more often thinking “I could do without today,” this episode is your reminder that you get to lead your life, not just live it.

  What happens when you go all in, even when everything seems stacked against you? This week, I’m joined by Gaynor Turner, founder of the online women’s boutique Above the Clouds, host of The Above the Clouds Podcast, and member of The She Is Courageous Collective. Gaynor shares how she built her business from scratch during lockdown — no tech skills, no funding, and plenty of hurdles along the way. We talk about the real meaning of resilience when sales don’t come, how to stay focused when you’re tempted to quit, and why believing in yourself is the turning point for everything. Gaynor also opens up about her mission to help women feel confident through wardrobe edits — and what might actually be hiding behind your wardrobe doors. And you’ll want to stay to the end, because Gaynor drops a story about Coldplay, manifestation, and the universe that you truly couldn’t make up. If you’ve ever thought about giving up on your dreams, this episode will remind you exactly why you shouldn’t. Above the Clouds combines the art of Wardrobe Editing with the transformative power of personal style. Specialising in allowing women to elevate their sense of identity, Gaynors passion is to help her clients to feel confident in every outfit. Above the Clouds is not just about clothing,  it's about helping women discover the best version of themselves.   Connect with Gaynor Turner here: @gaynorabovetheclouds LinkedIn Podcast   Listen now and follow The She Is Courageous Podcast for your weekly mindset boost.

What are you still holding onto that you know deep down isn’t right for you anymore? Maybe it’s a business offer that drains you, a goal that no longer excites you, or even an outdated version of success you’re still chasing out of habit. In this episode of The She Is Courageous Podcast, we’re talking about the messy and uncomfortable truth of letting go. Why it feels so hard. Why fear, pride, and “what will they think” keep us clinging on. And why releasing what no longer fits isn’t failure, it’s probably the bravest move you can make. You’ll learn the questions I ask my clients (and myself) to get honest about what it’s really costing you to hold on. And you’ll hear why giving yourself permission to let go, just one small step at a time, creates the space for growth, alignment, and the version of success that actually lights you up. It’s not weakness. It’s not giving up. It’s courage. And it’s exactly what you need to move forward. 👉 Listen now and ask yourself: What’s one thing you’re ready to let go of this week?

  What if change isn’t right or wrong, it’s just different? In this week’s guest episode, I sat down with my friend and fellow coach, Jessica, a life and career coach based in Dubai who helps people design their own definition of success. Together, we unpacked what it really means to live courageously, from leaving home countries and careers to giving yourself permission to change your mind. Jessica shares her story of moving from Italy to Spain to Dubai, the moment she realised traditional success didn’t feel like she thought it would, and how she now helps others strip back the layers and reconnect to what truly matters. This conversation is for any woman who’s ever wondered, “Is this it?”, anyone who’s hit the goals she thought she wanted, only to find herself craving something more real, more free, and more her. Because courage isn’t about having it all figured out,  it’s about trusting yourself enough to take the next step, even when it looks different than you imagined. Listen now and be reminded that you can rewrite your story, your way.

Ever told yourself “I’m just not that kind of person”? Yep me too!But what if that’s not the truth, what if it's just a label you’ve clung to out of fear or embarrassment? In this episode, I’m sharing a real, completely unexpected realisation that hit me after a simple game of crazy golf. Turns out, I’ve been telling a lie for most of my life. Not to deceive anyone, but to protect myself. From what? The awkwardness of admitting I don’t know how to do something. The fear of being seen as not good enough. The discomfort of learning something new… in front of others.And it all came from a game of crazy golf! If you’ve ever played small, avoided something you secretly wanted to try, or worn a label that doesn’t fit anymore, this one’s for you. I'm talking mindset, masks, and the kind of courage it takes to be honest, not just with others, but with yourself. Your next step?

In this week’s episode, I’m joined by the incredible Lin Sherlock, a woman who proves it’s never too late to rewrite your story. After a corporate career that ended in complete burnout and breakdown, Lin rebuilt her life through courage, mindset work, and a leap into network marketing, something she’d never imagined doing. We talk about the truth of burnout, why so many women stay stuck in “doing it all,” and how Lin found not just a new business, but a whole new way of thinking. You’ll hear the discipline, honesty, and heart that’s powered her from rock bottom to helping over 1,300 women create more time, choice, and freedom. If you’ve ever wondered whether it’s too late to start again, or doubted whether you deserve the life you want,  this episode will make you think again. Listen now, and remind yourself what’s possible when you decide you deserve more. Who Is Lin Sherlock After spending most of her career in the corporate world, Lin experienced a breakdown in  2018 that completely changed her world and her path.  Finding the Network Marketing industry in October 2019 when she was at her lowest ebb but knew she needed change. She's since built a life that gives her the time freedom,  financial flexibility, & the mindset & personal growth she desperately needed. She's rightly proud to  have helped close to 1300, and growing, (mainly) women take charge of their lives too!    CONNECT WITH LIN Instagram @buildingmybestlinlife  Website www.LinLifeTravel.com    ----------------------------------------------------------------   Follow The She Is Courageous Collective on Instagram for weekly inspiration and mindset tips that hit home.

This week we're talking about money, the number one thing we all want more of and yet have so many challenges with.This isn't about making more in the traditional sense, its not about spreadsheets, tax returns, or “charge your worth" but it is about your money mindset, the stories you’ve been carrying around since childhood about what you’re allowed to have, what you can spend, and whether it’s “greedy” to want more. Because the truth is money blocks don’t care how much you earn, how smart you are, or how many mindset books you’ve read. They show up in the everyday choices, undercharging, avoiding your bank account, defaulting to the cheapest option even when you don’t need to.And I know because this is one I work on personally A LOT! In this episode, I share my own money stories (yes, including that awkward knot in my stomach when stating my prices) and break down how to start spotting and challenging yours. We are getting honest about why your money beliefs are less about pounds and pence and more about safety, identity, and old conditioning, and how to take one small action to rewrite your story. Your money mindset isn’t just shaping your income. It’s shaping your energy, your decisions, and your future.

Connect with Itziar here  @itziarmartos www.itziarmartos.com Info@inclusivecconect.co.uk   What do you do when life hands you the unthinkable? At 21, today’s guest, Itziar Martos, began losing her sight. Five years of unanswered questions, endless tests, and the devastating unknown followed. But instead of letting it define her, Itziar chose courage. She went from depressed and uncertain to standing on stage as Miss Spain, competing internationally, and building a career as a sought-after speaker. In this episode, Itziar shares what it really takes to move from “why me?” to “watch me.” We talk about resilience, hidden disabilities, and the moment she realised she could do anything she set her mind to. Her story isn’t about waiting for confidence — it’s about choosing strength, making bold decisions, and creating a life on your own terms, no matter the challenges. If you’ve ever felt held back by fear, self-doubt, or circumstances outside your control, this episode will remind you: you have a choice, and you are stronger than you think. 👉 Listen now and discover what true courage looks like in action.   Follow The She Is Courageous Collective on Instagram for weekly inspiration and mindset tips that hit home.

What happens when the business you once poured your heart into no longer lights you up? Nobody really talks about it, but it’s more common than you think. In this episode, I’m exploring what it really feels like when you fall out of love with your business,  the guilt, the fear of failure, and that heavy “should I carry on?” voice in your head. This isn’t about quick fixes or sugar-coating. It’s about getting honest with yourself, asking the right questions, and finding the courage to decide whether to push forward, pivot, or let go. I’ll share practical steps you can use today to pause, reflect, and reconnect with what you actually want — not what everyone else thinks you should do. Because there’s no right or wrong answer here. The real courage lies in giving yourself permission to choose. If this resonates and you need a safe space to figure it out, come join us inside The She Is Courageous Collective. You don’t have to do this alone. 👉 Join the Collective here: She Is Courageous Collective   Follow The She Is Courageous Collective on Instagram for weekly inspiration and mindset tips that hit home.

This week, I’m joined by the incredible Karen Kissane, whose story of leaving corporate after facing maternity discrimination kickstarted a business (and personal) journey built on relentless courage. Now, as a leader in the biohacking space, Karen shares how biology, mindset, and strategy intersect to help you create a braver, more aligned business. From scaling a seven-figure coaching business to plunging into icy Finnish waters (literally), Karen reveals the power of knowing what you need to thrive—especially when everything feels hard. We talk about standing up for yourself, why “strategy isn’t enough,” and how biohacking became the missing piece in Karen’s business and life. Meet Karen Kissane  When the path didn’t exist, Karen Kissane built her own - and turned it into a seven-figure business that now helps experts and entrepreneurs do the same. An award-winning business coach, entrepreneur, author and biohacker, she’s the founder of tech platform ExpertSpace and the Biohack Your Business® movement, where high-performance strategy meets radical self-optimisation. After leaving the UK for France, navigating the pressures of building a seven-figure business, and facing some of life’s toughest personal and professional battles head-on, Karen discovered that real success comes from raising your game in every dimension - capacity, energy, focus, and strategy. She’s helped thousands of entrepreneurs scale profitably by combining bold strategy with cutting-edge systems, from automation and tech stacks to the neuroscience of energy management and simple but highly effective business strategies that work. Karen lives what she teaches - every strategy, every system, every breakthrough has been road-tested in her own business and life. Whether she’s coaching business owners through high-stakes growth, plunging into icy water to reset her nervous system, or challenging the old ways of working, she’s driven by one belief: when you master your biology, you unlock your bravest business decisions. Today, Karen is on a mission to show entrepreneurs that Self actualisation is the ultimate business strategy. When you combine bold decision-making with intelligent systems, streamlined processes, and a business model designed for scale, you create unstoppable momentum. Her philosophy is simple: when you lead with courage and operate with intention and precision, growth stops being a gamble and starts becoming inevitable.

Ever had one of those moments that knocks you to your knees? The ones that make you question everything,  your choices, your business, even yourself? You’re not alone. In this week’s episode of The She Is Courageous Podcast, I’m sharing something a little more vulnerable: what it’s really like when doubt hits hard and you find yourself thinking, “Maybe I should just give it all up.” I’ll talk about what actually happens in your brain in those moments, why your inner critic gets so loud, and how to start pulling yourself back out when it feels impossible. You’ll hear the three things I did to move through my own recent “I’m done” moment,  and how you can use them the next time life or business knocks you sideways. If you’ve ever questioned whether it’s worth it, this episode is your reminder that you are not alone, and you can come back stronger.
