Ep. 40: You Got What You Wanted. Now What?

The Megan Waldrep Podcast ·

2026/10/07

After years of living on a sailboat, in an Airstream, and in a rental, my husband and I finally bought our own home. As I stood arranging items on our mantel, I felt the satisfaction of reaching a dream, and then had a thought that surprised me: “Am I going to die now because I achieved this goal?”It sounds dramatic, I know. But that moment opened a question I’m still exploring: What happens when the future you’ve imagined becomes the life you’re living? In this episode, I share that story and

Ep. 39: The Reaction Test: A Little Measure of Growth

2026/09/30

What if one small way to notice your growth is to pay attention to your reactions...especially in the everyday stuff?This episode isn’t a lesson in how to react correctly (because, let’s be real, that’s not realistic). It’s a look at how to measure your growth in real time, while life is still being life. A few things we explore: How disappointment can reveal something you want Why a frustrating moment doesn’t have to become a verdict on your whole day What it can look like to find

The Megan Waldrep Podcast ·

2026/09/23

Today, we’re skipping the big intro and jumping right into an awareness breath practice.* The benefits of this practice include enhancing mental clarity and focus, significantly reducing stress and anxiety, improving mood, and lowering blood pressure. This is a wonderful tool to help slow your heart rate and regulate your nervous system when you need it: during a busy workday, while sitting in traffic, in the middle of a high-emotion conversation, as you’re falling asleep or when you’re trying to

So, I asked myself:"What would your higher self do when speaking up might make things awkward?"

The Megan Waldrep Podcast ·

2026/09/09

Oh yeah, we're in it now! Growth is often described as freeing, expansive, and beautiful. BUT when you’re actually living it, it can feel confusing, tender, and a lot like something has gone wrong. (In reality, you're doing it right!) In this episode, I’m sharing a personal growth report, LIVE from the messy middle. Believe me, you're not alone. The thing is, we may outgrow an identity, habit, relationship dynamic, or way of living looooong before the new version of our Self feels natural. Let’s

The Megan Waldrep Podcast ·

2026/09/02

What if the most confident version of you feels too far away to access right now?Before I met my husband, I was writing a dating column that was a little like Sex and the City meets Santa Barbara, California. I wrote under the name Elizabeth Rose, but she became much more than a pen name. She was an alter ego; someone a little more social, adventurous, and willing to take chances than I believed myself to be at the time. In this episode, I’m sharing how stepping into her energy changed the way I

Ep. 34: How to Stop Overthinking and Let that Thought Go

The Megan Waldrep Podcast ·

2026/08/26

Has one tiny thought ever turned into an entire emotional experience?Someone doesn't text back... you see someone else's success... someone says something that lands wrong... And before you know it, your mind has created a whole story about what it means, why it happened, and what might happen next. But what if there's a moment (right in the middle of all that) when you can simply stop? In this episode, we’re talking about the difference between having a thought and following a thought, and why

2026/08/19

What if intuition isn't about predicting the future or receiving some mysterious answer from outside yourself...but about getting better at noticing what your body already knows?In this episode, we're talking about pendulums (and why you don't need one), the ideomotor effect, and what may actually be happening in your body when you face a yes-or-no question. The goal isn't to be right every time. It's to develop a relationship with your own internal signals and build trust in yourself. We can start

2026/08/12

Have you ever had a reaction to someone that felt way bigger than the situation seemed to warrant? Of course you have! You're human! So let's figure out how to take our power back in that situation to help us evolve past it. In this episode, we'll explore how moments of frustration, anger, jealousy, rejection, or hurt can become opportunities for deeper self-awareness and how curiosity can help us respond rather than simply react. I even share questions you can ask yourself when something really

The Megan Waldrep Podcast ·

2026/08/05

We hear “love yourself” all the time, but what does that actually mean? How can you understand the idea of self-love without actually feeling it?In this episode, we explore a simple way to experience self-love as a felt sensation rather than just another affirmation you’re supposed to believe (they don't always land, do they?). Instead of trying to manufacture feelings of love for yourself, here's a fun trick you can use as a doorway anytime you need it. Let's Dive In! FREE: The Breathing Room

The Megan Waldrep Podcast ·

2026/07/29

For years, I believed that bigger breaths were always better."Take the deepest breath you've taken all day. Fill your lungs completely." If you've taken a yoga class, you've probably heard these cues countless times. But what if breathing bigger isn't always breathing better? In this episode, I explore a fascinating perspective I learned through Oxygen Advantage that challenged what I thought I knew about breathing. We dive into why quiet, slow, nasal breathing may be more supportive for your

Ep.29: Everyone Else Took LSD. I Took Nothing.

The Megan Waldrep Podcast ·

2026/07/22

What happens when you're the only sober person in the room?In this episode, I share a story from a weekend with old friends. And what unfolded reminded me that clarity, connection, and spiritual insight don't have to come from changing your state of consciousness. Sometimes they come from becoming fully present in the one you're already in. This isn't an episode about whether psychedelics are good or bad. It's an invitation to explore a bigger question: Do we need something outside of ourselves to

2026/07/15

Have you ever come home from a reunion, a weekend with old friends, or a visit to your hometown feeling...off? Maybe you had an amazing time, laughed until your stomach hurt, and genuinely enjoyed reconnecting...yet afterward you felt emotionally drained, anxious, or even a little depressed. If you've ever wondered, "Why do I feel this way when nothing bad even happened?" you're not alone. In this episode, we're exploring why revisiting old places and relationships can stir up emotions you didn't

Ep. 27: You Don't Need to Fix Anyone

The Megan Waldrep Podcast ·

2026/07/08

What if one of the most freeing realizations in your spiritual journey is this: You are not responsible for someone else's awakening. In this episode, I'm sharing an idea that's brought me so much peace over the years. From therapy and sobriety to breathwork and everyday relationships, I've learned that we can't force people to change, no matter how much we love them. Instead of carrying the weight of fixing everyone else, what if our only job is to live what we believe? As always, BYOB (Bring Your

The Megan Waldrep Podcast ·

2026/07/01

Have you ever wondered if you're protecting your peace...or just avoiding discomfort? It's a question I've been asking myself lately. We hear a lot about setting boundaries (and I'm all for healthy boundaries), but sometimes it's hard to know where the line is between honoring ourselves and quietly hiding from the things that help us grow. In this episode, I'm sharing a mindset shift inspired by an Instagram Reel that sent me down a rabbit hole. We explore why boundaries and avoidance can sometimes

Ep. 25 The Manifestation Mistake I Think We All Make

The Megan Waldrep Podcast ·

2026/06/24

Have you ever wondered whether manifestation is really about getting what you want… or becoming the person who can receive it? In this episode, we explore how the perspective on manifestation has evolved over the years. This isn't a conversation about manifesting harder. It's a conversation about showing up differently.

The Megan Waldrep Podcast ·

2026/06/10

*Super special and intimate episode about a recent loss I'm experiencing, and I want to bring you in. Why? Well, when someone we love dies, we're often given a funeral, a few days to gather with family, and then an unspoken expectation to return to life as usual. But grief rarely works that way. In this episode, I share my experience following a Buddhist-inspired 49-day mourning practice after the death of my Uncle Al.

The Megan Waldrep Podcast ·

2026/05/27

In this episode, I’m diving into the part of mindset work that changed everything for me: the body. Because thoughts don’t just stay in your mind. Your body feels them too. When you’re anxious, your body tightens. Your breathing changes. Your nervous system reacts before you even realize it. But the opposite is *also* true: Your body can help lead you back to calm. This episode is about learning to feel good in your body again, without guilt, pressure, or perfectionism. FREE: Simple tools to reset
