Do you believe that if you're too accepting of yourself, you'll never improve? That being hard on yourself is the only way to grow? If so, you're not alone. This is one of the most common misconceptions I see, and it's holding so many people back from their true potential. This internal battle is exhausting, and it's based on a fundamental misunderstanding about how human beings actually change and grow. Tune in this week as I challenge this belief head-on and show you why self-acceptance is actually the foundation for extraordinary growth.

533. How One Word Can Change Your Entire Life
Have you ever felt overwhelmed by all the good advice out there? You know what I mean. All those strategies, tactics, and mindset tips that are supposed to help you create change in your life… but somehow, you're still stuck. When you're stuck in a pattern of negative thinking about your business, your health, your relationships, or any challenge in your life, you might think you need to completely overhaul your thoughts. But here's the truth: sometimes, it's not about adding more information. Sometimes, the simplest shift can create the biggest change. Listen in this week as I share four one-word thoughts that will transform any thought without requiring you to let go of what feels true for you right now. You’ll learn how these words act as add-ons or responses that redirect your brain from shutting down to opening up, and how they’ll empower you to take action instead of being stuck in frustration and self-pity.

532. When Hope Is Useful and When It’s Not
From hoping for good weather to hoping our business succeeds, “hope” is a word we throw around constantly. But there's a critical difference between these two scenarios that most people miss. One puts you in the passenger seat of your life, while the other pretends you're not even holding the steering wheel. Here's the truth: hope isn't always your friend. Sometimes, it's actually keeping you from taking powerful action in your life. If you've been feeling stuck in a “hope" cycle, constantly wishing for better results but not seeing them, this episode is your wake-up call. Tune in this week as I break down exactly when hope is useful and when it’s not. Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://jodymoore.com/532

531. A Story Is Worth 1000 Pictures
Stories shape us more profoundly than facts ever could. A public speaking coach once told me that if a picture is worth a thousand words, a story is worth a thousand pictures. We rarely remember the actual tactics from lessons or speeches, but the stories stay with us. Earlier this year, I brought in a storytelling coach to lead a workshop for coaches and content creators. We spent the day in this beautiful library room in Oceanside, California, listening to stories, telling stories, and learning what makes stories truly impactful. The experience was so profound that I invited workshop attendees to submit stories for the podcast, and I couldn't choose just one - I had to share three. Listen in today to hear from three remarkable women - Michelle Reyes, Jennifer Townsend, and Noreen Noble - who will share insights from our storytelling workshop along with their own powerful stories.
