Start Scared – Details, episodes & analysis
Podcast details
Technical and general information from the podcast's RSS feed.


Start Scared is for the busy Mama who LOVES her babies, but has lost herself in the chaos of everyday Mom life. She is trying to DISCOVER who she is outside of being a Mom even though she may not know exactly what that is yet. Together, we have HONEST and REAL conversations just like girlfriends chatting over a cocktail or a coffee on the back porch. We cut through the BS stories we tell ourselves and find CLARITY to start scared on putting ourselves FIRST, because who we are outside of being a Mom still MATTERS.

🎉 200 Episodes of Showing Up Scared: Reflecting on the Journey 🎉
mercredi 18 décembre 2024 • Duration 11:46
Text me! I want to hear from YOU! 🫶🏼
200 EPISODES! Can you believe it?! Today, we’re celebrating a huge milestone for Start Scared, and I couldn’t be more excited to have YOU here with me.
In this special episode, I’m reflecting on the messy, beautiful, and sometimes awkward journey that got us here. From hitting record for the very first time to creating a space where moms like us can rediscover who we are beyond the chaos of mom life, this has been a labor of love—and a whole lot of bravery.
Tune in as I:
✨ Share what I’ve learned over 200 episodes of showing up scared.
✨ Celebrate YOU and your role in this journey.
✨ Encourage you to take those first messy steps toward your own dreams, no matter how scared you feel.
This episode is your reminder that you are worthy of taking up space, that progress matters more than perfection, and that showing up scared is better than not showing up at all.

I am so pumped to have Ashley Johnson on the podcast today! I had the joy and honor of getting to meet her at EmpowerHER live in Phoenix back in October.
I feel so incredibly connected to her as a Mama and as a teacher and really just her mission behind helping other teacher mamas set boundaries, so that they can be the best they can be without experiencing burnout.
Ashley Johnson is a mom, a wife, a shop teacher, a health and wellness coach, a Podcaster and a course creator. She is in the middle of juggling all the things and working on using her time management skills as her superpower right now! Can I get an AMEN on a Wednesday?!
Whether you are a mama, a teacher or both, like ME!, I really think you are going to resonate with this conversation! I can’t wait to hear what you think!

95. [HIS & HER CHAT] Having a GRACE filled marriage and WHY you NEED to get away
mercredi 14 décembre 2022 • Duration 22:32
Text me! I want to hear from YOU! 🫶🏼
My husband, Frank, and I spent the weekend at our annual couple's retreat, and although the timing in December is never the best, we make going a priority.
Not only does it help strengthen our marriage, but it also helps us become better parents and models for our kids.
Today, we are sharing some of the things we learned about having a grace-filled marriage and some of the things we are hoping to implement in our daily lives.
As Moms, we are BUSY, but making our marriages a priority is so important, and Frank and I struggle with it, too... But every year, we are reminded that getting away and spending intentional time together is NECESSARY.
We are rooting for you AND your marriage and can't wait to hear what you think!
