ÜBER DIESE EPISODE
Whose voice are you listening to when you talk to yourself?
In this episode of Catalyst Conversations, Desi Bolin sits down with self-leadership strategist Ly Smith to explore the internal conversations shaping our confidence, decisions, leadership, and lives. Ly shares her journey from losing herself inside the roles she carried to rediscovering her joy, purpose, and voice—and why she believes becoming a creator begins with seeing yourself differently.
In this conversation, you’ll hear about:
-
The childhood mirror experience that shaped Ly’s understanding of self-talk
-
What happened when Ly realized she had lost herself inside her roles
-
The difference between living as a reactor and a creator
-
Why imposter syndrome can show up when you’re stretching beyond the status quo
-
Ly’s CANDY Method: Clarity, Affirmation, Necessity, Discipline, and You
-
How small language shifts can change the way you experience your circumstances
-
Why acknowledging progress matters more than constantly measuring what remains undone
-
A simple mirror practice for reconnecting with yourself
-
How intentional self-talk becomes an act of self-leadership
This episode is for entrepreneurs, executives, leaders, creators, and anyone who’s ever wondered whether the critical voice inside their head is actually their own.
