Episode 135: Why High Achievers Feel Empty Even When Life Looks Good
1w ago00:20:27Tap to summarizeHave you ever looked around at your life and thought… "Why don't I feel happier than this?" You did everything you were supposed to do. You worked hard. Built the career. Created success. Maybe even found love, built the life, checked all the boxes… yet something still feels missing. In this episode, I'm talking about the lie so many of us have been sold, that fulfillment comes from external success. I share my own experience of building a life that looked good on paper while quietly feeling disconnected from myself and the life I truly wanted to live. Deep down, I knew I was meant for more. And I know so many people feel this way too. We dive into: why high achievers often feel empty even when life looks successful how survival mode disconnects us from peace, purpose, and fulfillment the exhaustion so many women feel from constantly pouring energy outward people pleasing, overworking, and suppressing your own needs why anxiety, burnout, scrolling, numbing, and emotional disconnection happen the importance of healing your relationship with yourself reconnecting to your intuition, truth, and highest self what true prosperity actually means how fulfillment comes from alignment, authenticity, and intentional living I also talk about how many women were conditioned to prioritize work, achievement, helping others, and being productive over their own emotional wellbeing, desires, and inner peace… and how this creates resentment, exhaustion, and disconnection over time. This episode is an invitation to stop abandoning yourself and start creating a life that actually feels aligned, meaningful, peaceful, and fulfilling from the inside out. INSIDE THIS EPISODE: Why external success doesn't automatically create fulfillment The hidden cost of overworking and people pleasing Why so many high achievers feel emotionally disconnected How to reconnect to your purpose and inner power The relationship between healing, self-connection, and fulfillment What true prosperity really means Why living intentionally changes everything ROUND 3 OF THE HIGHEST SELF MASTERMIND — STARTING JULY 15TH I also share details about the upcoming round of Highest Self Mastermind, a transformational group coaching experience designed to help you reconnect to your highest self, heal limiting patterns, strengthen your mindset, create more peace and purpose, and build a life that feels deeply aligned.

Transcribe →Episode 133: What voice are you listening to?
3w ago00:34:52Tap to summarizeIn this episode of Your Spiritual Upgrade, Greta Ertl dives into the difference between the two voices living inside all of us: the voice of fear and the voice of your highest self. One voice wants to keep you safe, comfortable, small, and predictable. The other is calling you toward expansion, abundance, growth, fulfillment, and the life you actually want. Greta shares personal stories about business growth, preparing for a month in Europe, expanding into bigger leadership, and the inner work required to hold more success, freedom, money, and joy. She talks about the discomfort that comes with growth, why your nervous system can resist the very things you consciously want, and how to stop letting fear make your decisions. This episode is a powerful reminder that your next level will require a new version of you — one willing to trust themselves, set boundaries, take aligned risks, and stop abandoning their deeper knowing. Greta also shares updates on upcoming retreats including Rooted & Rewritten in Sayulita, Mexico over Día de los Muertos and an upcoming couples retreat experience. If you've been feeling stuck between comfort and expansion, this episode will help you reconnect with the version of you who knows what's possible. Topics covered: Fear vs. the voice of your highest self Why growth can feel unsafe to the nervous system Business expansion, identity shifts & emotional capacity Releasing comfort-zone patterns Trusting your intuition and inner guidance The personal growth required for your next level Taking aligned risks instead of playing small Why fulfillment requires participation, not perfection If this episode spoke to you and you know you're meant for more — more peace, more purpose, more abundance, more fulfillment — I would love to support you. My 1:1 coaching is for high achievers who are ready to stop living in survival mode and start becoming the version of themselves they know they're capable of being. Together we work on mindset, nervous system regulation, spirituality, Human Design, emotional healing, confidence, business growth, boundaries, manifestation, and creating a life that actually feels aligned. If you're feeling the pull toward deeper support, you can book a free consultation call with me through the link below. We'll talk about where you are, where you want to go, and whether coaching together feels aligned Ready for Private Coaching?

In this episode, I share the shift that changed everything for me: It's not about finding your purpose It's about living purposefully When I stopped obsessing over whether I was in the "right" job and started showing up with intention where I was, everything began to change.

Transcribe →Episode 131: How I Changed My Income, Business & Life by Changing Me
Apr 2800:36:57Tap to summarizeWhat if the reason your reality hasn't changed yet… is because you're still being the version of you who created the current one? In this episode of Your Spiritual Upgrade, I'm sharing one of the biggest breakthroughs of my life and business journey: To create a new reality, you have to become the person who already has it. That means new thoughts, new standards, new energy, new actions, and learning how to hold faith even when your current reality hasn't caught up yet. I'm also sharing some exciting personal and business updates—including working with a strategy coach, rebranding my business, my plans to spend winters in Sayulita, and upcoming retreats there. Inside this episode, we talk about: Why identity is the real key to manifestation How to shift your internal baseline for money and success What to do when doubt, disappointment, or anxiety show up How to stay aligned in the messy middle of growth Why actions reveal belief more than words Raising your standards, frequency, and expectations Becoming the version of you who naturally receives more If you've been craving more abundance, purpose, peace, love, or freedom… this episode is for you.

Transcribe →Episode 130: Peace, Power & Prosperity: How My Launch Finally Worked
Apr 2100:27:45Tap to summarizeWhat changed between a launch that brought in $0 and one that generated $17.4K? In this episode, I'm taking you behind the scenes of two very different mastermind launches and sharing the real reasons the second one worked. Because launching isn't just about emails, content, or posting more. It's also about: how you respond when sales don't come instantly whether you truly believe in your offer how well you nurture your audience before the launch the energy you bring into your content and sales process whether you're embodying the transformation you promise others I'm sharing the 4 biggest shifts I made, why the first launch failed, how the second brought in 8 incredible women, and why I now believe launching is a game between you and you. Inside this episode, we cover: Why preparation matters more than last-minute panic How my retreat + free challenge created warm buyers Why embodiment sells more than convincing ever will Staying open when results don't happen right away How to navigate low-energy days during a launch Why each launch gets easier when you stay in the game The mindset shift that changed everything: "How can I love this more?" If you're a coach, entrepreneur, or anyone building something meaningful, this episode will help you approach launches and money from a completely different place. Ready to Heal Your Relationship with Money? My next live experience, Money Mindset May, begins May 4th. This is a 21-day group container designed to help you release scarcity, feel safer receiving more, and create a more empowered relationship with money.

Transcribe →Episode 129: I Almost Didn't Record This… (Real Talk From My Launch)
Apr 1400:24:45Tap to summarizeIf you've ever felt like you're doing everything "right"… showing up, putting in the work, creating value—and the results just aren't landing the way you expected… this episode is for you. I'm taking you behind the scenes of my current launch for the Highest Self Mastermind—because at the time of recording this, I had fewer sign-ups than I thought I would. And I'm sharing this in real time. The disappointment. The thoughts that come up. The pressure. And what it actually looks like to keep showing up as your highest self anyway. We talk about: What happens emotionally when results don't match your expectations The difference between launching a group program vs. 1:1 How your self-worth can get activated in business Why feeling "invisible" doesn't mean you are How to hold your energy when you're not seeing immediate results The real work of staying aligned, grounded, and powerful through it all This is the part of entrepreneurship most people don't show you— but it's where the real growth happens. If you're in a season where things feel uncertain or slower than expected, this will bring you back to yourself. Because nothing has gone wrong. You're just being asked to lead at a deeper level. Inside the Highest Self Mastermind, this is exactly the work we do. We don't just talk about becoming your highest self when things are easy— we embody it in the moments where doubt, pressure, and uncertainty come up. This is for you if you're ready to: feel more peaceful and grounded in your day-to-day life show up with confidence and clarity in your business move through emotions without letting them run the show reconnect to your purpose and personal power and create a life and business that actually feels aligned and expansive We focus on the 5 P's: Peaceful Present Purposeful Powerful Prosperous The mastermind begins April 15th at 5PM.

Transcribe →Episode 128: How to Thrive Through Life Transitions (Without Losing Yourself)
Apr 700:33:21Tap to summarizeIf your life feels like it's shifting, uncertain, or a little uncomfortable right now… this episode is for you. Because what if you're not lost… What if you're actually in the middle of a powerful up-level? In this episode, I'm sharing a real, behind-the-scenes look at the transitions I've been moving through—personally and professionally—and what I'm seeing across my clients, retreats, and masterminds. 2025 and the beginning of this year have been a season of shedding for so many people—relationships, identities, careers, old ways of being. And while that can feel disorienting… it's also where your next level is born. We talk about: Why transitions feel so uncomfortable (and why that's normal) The identity shifts that come with growth and success How to stop spiraling when everything feels uncertain Reframing transitions as up-levels instead of setbacks The daily practices that keep you grounded through change How to find stability within yourself instead of looking for it externally This episode will help you move from feeling lost, anxious, or in-between… to feeling grounded, supported, and connected to where you're going next. If you're in a season of change, this is your reminder: nothing is falling apart, everything is reorganizing for your next level If you're navigating a big transition and want deeper support, structure, and community—my Highest Self Mastermind is designed for this exact season of life. This is where you learn how to stay grounded, clear, and connected to yourself while everything around you is evolving. You can apply and join us HERE!
Transcribe →Episode 127: Become Your Highest Self (Enrollment Now Open)
Mar 3100:22:21Tap to summarizeYou have a good life… but you don't fully feel it. You're doing all the things. You're successful. You're showing up. But internally? You feel disconnected, anxious, or like something is missing. In this episode, I'm breaking down why this happens — and what actually needs to shift. We talk about: Why high-achievers still feel stuck (even when life looks "good") The real reason your mind keeps looping in fear, doubt, and overthinking Why doing more isn't the answer — and what is The power of daily spiritual practice + nervous system regulation Why you can't create lasting change alone (and what changes when you stop trying to) This episode is your reminder that nothing is wrong with you — you're just disconnected from your highest self. And when you reconnect? Everything changes. If you're ready to feel more peace, clarity, purpose, and power in your life… The Highest Self Mastermind is now open for enrollment. This is a 6-month experience where you'll be supported, guided, and held accountable to becoming the version of you that you know is in there. Weekly calls. Deep inner work. Real transformation.
