She Doesn't Settle
Hosted by Kelly Travis · EN
You're ambitious. You're capable. You're also exhausted, stretched thin, and tired of pretending you're not. She Doesn't Settle is for female leaders, business owners, and achievers who refuse to keep sacrificing themselves to do it all and do it all well. Hosted by Kelly Travis - coach, consultant, and pre-licensed therapist - who won't let you stay on autopilot. Because settling for exhausted, overwhelmed, or "fine" isn't the deal you signed up for.

209: Why You Can't Tell The Truth
Jan 2100:28:32Tap to summarizeThis is part of our "Conversations You're Not Having" series. And today...it's all about telling the truth. There's something you need to say, and you're not saying it. Maybe you're unhappy in your role, your relationship isn't working, you made a mistake, or you want something different than what you've been pretending to want. You know the truth - you're just not telling it. In this episode, I break down the six reasons women avoid telling the truth: fear of consequences, fear of being seen as negative or ungrateful, fear of looking incompetent, guilt, shame, and loss of control. The longer you avoid it, the heavier it gets. Episode links: Fill out this form to share specific challenges/questions you'd like for Kelly to address on an upcoming episode.

Transcribe →208: Why You Can't Ask For What You Need
Jan 900:25:10Tap to summarizeThis is the first in our "Conversations You're Not Having" series. Yay! In addition to this episode, there will be 4 other types of conversations you're not having that we will dig into. So, let's talk about this one. You know what you need. You need help, support, a raise, flexibility, your partner to step up - you know. But you can't bring yourself to ask for it. In this episode, I break down the five reasons women can't ask for what they need: guilt (asking feels selfish), shame (needing something feels like failure), fear of appearing weak, fear of rejection, and fear of losing control. It's one of the hardest conversations you're not having. Episode links: Fill out this form to share specific challenges/questions you'd like for Kelly to address on an upcoming episode.

Dec 1800:23:26Tap to summarizeYou're the person everyone comes to with their problems. You listen, you care, and then you take it on as yours to solve. In this episode, we're going underneath the fixer pattern to look at what's actually driving it: a sense of justice and responsibility that won't let you stand by when something's wrong or when someone's struggling. In this episode, Kelly breaks down the two versions of this - the "this is wrong and I have to fix it" fixer and the "I have to help everyone" fixer - and why both are costing you more than you realize.

Transcribe →206: The 'Do It All and Do It All Well' Trap
Dec 400:23:08Tap to summarizeShe's baaakkkk! I'm so excited to bring back SDS with renewed energy and enthusiasm for this community. And with that...let's dive in to our first episode back. You're doing it all. You're doing it all well. And you're exhausted. In this episode, I'm breaking down why you can't seem to stop - and why the reason isn't the same for every woman. We're going underneath the "do it all" trap to look at what's actually driving it: fear, perfectionism, avoidance, identity, expectations, or control. Because you can't change a pattern until you know what's running it. Fill out this form to share specific challenges/questions you'd like for Kelly to address on an upcoming episode.

Transcribe →203: What's Your Interaction Style?
Oct 16, 202400:20:14Tap to summarizeWelcome to the second episode in our discussion around communication. Last week's episode we discussed conflict styles and today we are discussing interaction styles. In this episode I'm exploring three distinct interaction styles: Assertive, Compliant, and Withdrawn. These can also be referred to Hornevian Groups, named after the influential psychologist Karen Horney, that categorize the nine Enneagram Types. You'll learn the key characteristics of each style (and how it shows up in each Enneagram Type), how they influence communication and relationships, and how to work with them. Let me know what you think your dominant style of interaction is and what you learned in this podcast! Episode links: Email Kelly: support@kellytravis.net Instagram Website She Doesn't Settle
