I actually think, ironically, I would do a lot better and be, quote, more successful if I let this go.

Hi, I'm Claire Wasserman, coach, author, and host of Ladies Get Paid.

What you just heard was what I shared with Connie Kwan partway through our conversation, and I hadn't planned to share that.

But Connie is a habit change expert and the author of the upcoming book, Story Habits.

Kathy has had to teach herself in her 50s that this is allowed.

Hi, I'm Claire Wasserman, coach, author, and host of the Ladies Get Paid podcast.

Sometimes our episodes are interviews, some are real coaching sessions, and others are like this one, where I tell you about a woman in the community who has a money story I think you should hear.

Kathy sat with me for over an hour and gave me the whole thing, the childhood, the credit cards, the marriage, the $1.5 million of debt, the parts she's never said out loud to anyone.

She mentioned her health insurance, but underneath the health insurance was a much bigger thing she'd been afraid to say out loud.

Hi, I'm Claire Wasserman, coach, author, and host of Ladies Get Paid, and I'm so happy you're here.

In this coaching session, we dig into binary thinking and why your brain loves it, what it costs to be the person everyone relies on, and why leaving a job you've outgrown can feel like a death you have to grieve.

Along with this episode, there is a free companion Substack post with the key takeaways and a list of action steps you can take, inspired by this conversation.

I know I need to put myself out there, raise my hand more, but I feel really uncomfortable.

Hi, I'm Claire Wasserman, coach, author, and host of Ladies Get Paid, and I hear this from clients I coach constantly.

I've also felt it in my own life, and I want to be very clear about what's going on here.

It's not about lack of knowledge, strategy, or even confidence.

And I love that.

Also, Claire Wasserman, who has a company called, or did, I don't know if it's still in existence, called Ladies Get Paid.

She had a seven-figure business and wound up losing everything.

Why? Because she had a series of medical emergencies that happened in her life.
