OM DENNE EPISODE
What if the biggest thing holding you back isn’t your strategy… but the story you keep telling yourself?
In this episode of Mommas Making Commas, Kate sits down with self-leadership strategist Ly Smith (“Lee” Smith) to talk about the internal shifts women need to make when moving from survival mode into intentional living and entrepreneurship.
So many women are busy, overwhelmed, checking all the boxes, and chasing goals… yet still feel stuck, disconnected, and frustrated that life doesn’t seem to work for them the way they hoped.
Ly shares how high-performing women often become trapped in reactive patterns rooted in self-doubt, imposter syndrome, procrastination, and playing small — not because they lack ability, but because they’ve forgotten who they truly are underneath the pressure and expectations.
Together, Kate and Ly unpack how to move from reacting to life into consciously creating a life aligned with your truth, values, gifts, and greatness.
In this episode, we discuss:
- The difference between living as a reactor versus a creator
- Why so many ambitious women stay stuck despite working hard
- How self-talk shapes confidence, action, and success
- Signs you may be disconnected from yourself
- Why alignment matters more than hustle
- Reframing imposter syndrome and procrastination
- The power of identity and self-awareness in entrepreneurship
- The CANDY Method for rewriting self-talk and stepping into empowerment
The CANDY Method includes:
- Clarity
- Affirmation
- Necessity (taking action)
- Discipline
- You
This episode is a reminder that there is already genius, greatness, and gifting inside of you — and sometimes the next level of your life begins by remembering who you truly are.
