Am I Being a B**ch? (…or Just Finally in My Power) with Megan Walrod | 349

How many times have we spoken up, set a boundary, or asked for what we need, and immediately thought, “Am I being a b**ch?” That’s the head-trash of good girl conditioning talking, not reality. In this episode, women’s empowerment coach and novelist Megan Walrod helps us separate distortion from truth, spot body cues that signal self-abandonment vs. self-advocacy, and practice being what she calls a generative b**ch: fierce, values-aligned, and unapologetic. We unpack scripts for setting boundaries without apology, how to reframe the inner critic (“Doubting Diva,” anyone?), and why it’s normal to sometimes under- or overshoot the mark. Plus, Megan shares her favorite embodiment practice—the infamous “F-You Walk”—to release suppressed emotion and reclaim your voice. We also dig into her debut novel, It’s Always Been Me, where the heroine saves herself (as it should be). Because at the end of the day, being direct, self-respecting, and powerful isn’t bitchy—it’s integrity.
