999: What’s Next for Me (And Maybe, for You Too)

November 18, 2025 • 21 mins
I’ve recorded nearly a thousand episodes of this show, and yet this one has been one of the hardest to sit down and share. Over the past few months, life has forced me to slow down through surgery, recovery, and a lot of unexpected stillness. And in that quiet, I’ve had to ask some uncomfortable questions about what really matters, where I want to spend my time, and what’s sustainable for me right now.  Connect with Abagail⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ...

998: When What Used to Matter… Doesn’t Anymore

November 11, 2025 • 25 mins
I used to think values were something you discovered once and then lived by forever, like a moral compass that stayed fixed. But I’m starting to wonder if they’re more like constellations. They shift a little as you move through different seasons of life. For a long time, I treated my values like a checklist: family, creativity, freedom. Those were the things that mattered. But when they stopped feeling aligned, I felt completely d...

997: How My Definition of “Enough” Has Changed

November 4, 2025 • 33 mins
We all want to feel fulfilled, satisfied, and ‘enough!’ I think, ultimately, when we’re searching for ‘enough,’ we’re searching for satisfaction. I want you to know that your feeling enough will never just be satisfied by numbers on a page or by a certain amount of money.  Connect with Abagail⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠  ⁠⁠⁠⁠All the Links!⁠⁠⁠ I used to think that satisfaction meant making a certain amount of money and bein...

October 28, 2025 • 23 mins
Sometimes the business that got you here can’t take you where you want to go! Today, we are talking about when it’s time for experimentation and reinvention.

995: Why Seasons of Business Matter (And How to Recognize Yours)

October 21, 2025 • 32 mins
Have you ever looked at someone else’s business and thought, ‘Why does everything seem to be working out for them?’ Well, you’re not alone. We need to normalize this: not everyone is going to be going through the same season of business at the same time. I’d love to tell you it was predictable, and we could all match our energy to the seasons of the year, but that’s just not necessarily how life works.  Connect with Abagail⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ...

994: What Most People Get Wrong About Success

October 16, 2025 • 38 mins
Have you ever hit a milestone you worked your entire life for only to feel absolutely nothing? We often spend so much of our time and attention focused on our future selves that we forget how to live in the present. But it’s not your fault! We were handed this invisible checklist when we were all kids. We’re supposed to get a good education and a good job, buy that house, get married, have those kids, and live that dream life. Con...

993: Breaking Free From Your Addiction to Cortisol

October 7, 2025 • 27 mins
You know you’re in danger when rest feels more dangerous than your to-do list.

Cortisol addiction is a clinically observed pattern. When you’re stressed, your body pumps out cortisol and triggers a part of your fight, flight, freeze, or...
