I sat down with performance coach and bestselling author Annalie Howling, who’s spent years helping women stop shrinking and start owning their power—without apology.
Drawing from her book Unapologetic, Annalie unpacks how shame often shows up in midlife as perfectionism, people-pleasing, and an internalized fear of power. Many women are conditioned to believe that being “too much” is wrong—and that success must come without desire, anger, ambition, or edge.
This episode explores:
- How shame masks itself in daily behaviors
- The danger of “shoulds” and how to rewrite your personal rulebook
- The antidote to shame (hint: it starts with self-compassion)
- Why reclaiming your power isn’t selfish—it’s survival
If you’ve ever felt like you’re too much, not enough, or constantly at war with who you should be, this is your call to step out of the box—and into your bold, unfiltered, unapologetic self.
