UNCHARTED – EPISODE 11
IT’S HELL YES OR IT’S NO
The Power of Decisiveness in Love, Work, and Everything In Between

Welcome back to UNCHARTED, the podcast that rips the map from your hands and dares you to draw your own. I'm your host, Lisa N Edwards writer, crypto trader, filmmaker, and a woman who's rebuilt empires from intuition, grit, and gutsy decisions

In this episode, we’re calling out the biggest energy drain in your life: the MAYBE
The relationships that almost love you
The jobs that sort of excite you
The ex who sends a “hey” at midnight while you’re still waiting for real effort.
The deals that look good on paper, but your gut is screaming NO

This isn’t about being impulsive, it’s about being aligned

🔹 Segment 1: The Illusion of Maybe
We unpack why “maybe” feels safe but is secretly one of the most toxic places to live. It delays healing, drains energy, and keeps you stuck in limbo. If it’s not a HELL YES in your body, it’s a no

🔹 Segment 2: Why We Settle for Halfway
From love to career to self-worth, we explore why so many of us cling to the halfway point. Spoiler alert: it’s conditioning. We’ve been taught to be polite instead of powerful. But playing small helps no one, least of all you

🔹 Segment 3: The Energetic Cost of “Almost”
“Almost” is expensive — emotionally, spiritually, and creatively. We break down what it really costs to stay in almost-love, almost-success, and almost-opportunities. Think of it as a spiritual tax, and it’s time to stop paying it

🔹 Segment 4: Love, Business, and Boundaries
This is your wake-up call: Half-love isn’t love. Breadcrumbs aren’t effort. And if someone isn’t showing up with their full chest — in person, in presence, in action, it’s a NO. The same goes for business deals and collaborations. You are not available for lukewarm

🔹 Segment 5: The Sacred Power of Saying NO
We reframe NO as a sacred act of self-respect. Psychology, trauma response, and nervous system regulation all come into play here. If you’re a people pleaser, empath, or recovering self-abandoner, this segment will set you free

⚡ We also touch on:

  • Why Cognitive Dissonance keeps you stuck
  • The Fawn Response and how it hijacks your truth
  • Emotional bankruptcy and “Almost Famous” as the ultimate metaphor for almost-living
  • How to stop being the backup plan in your own life
  • Why “No” is your nervous system’s best friend

🎧 Whether you’re ghosted, gaslit, in a situationship, sitting on a business deal that kinda feels wrong, or staring at a DM from someone who “just thought of you” — this is your moment

🔥 This episode is your call to clarity
 To trust your gut
 To walk away faster
 To honour your alignment louder
 To stop negotiating your worth for someone else's comfort

Because from now on?
 It’s HELL YES — or it’s NO
 There is no maybe

📲 Share this with someone stuck in limbo. This could be the moment that shifts everything for them. Tag me on socials, message me, and let me know what your “no more maybes” moment is. I see you. I read everything

You are the mapmaker
 You are the standard
 You don’t need permission to c
