If you’re a parent of a high-performing teen, or even just someone who wants to redefine success in your own life, this conversation is packed with insights. This week, Steph sits down with Steve Galley, Certified High-Performance Coach, co-host of the Stop Parenting and Start Coaching podcast, co-founder of Create. Transform. Become., seasoned speaker, author, and Ironman triathlete.

Steve shares why parents often treat their teens the same way they did at age 9 (and why that backfires), how to avoid being the “drill sergeant,” and how creating your own scoreboard can lower stress and improve performance.

In this solo episode, Steph shares the story behind her ambitious goal of recording 100 days of podcasting. She opens up about juggling podcast creation with other commitments, including posting on social media and staying consistent even when motivation dips.

Steph talks candidly about the pure joy and energy she feels when creating content, regardless of how many people see it. She reflects on the power of creating publicly for accountability and the little bursts of encouragement that keep her going, like hearing from a friend who enjoys her day-in-the-life series.

This episode blends personal reflection, motivation, and a call to action for women to step up and share their stories and perspectives through podcasting.

• Why Steph committed to 100 days of podcasting

• Balancing podcasting with life, work, and other creative pursuits

• The excitement and energy that comes from creating

• The gap between men and women following through on podcasting goals

• What it truly means to amplify your voice

• Podcasting as a tool for building a personal legacy

“People often don’t think about podcasting as legacy. When in time have we had this? We’re so accessible for you to share thoughts and wisdom and one day, your posterity, your friends, your family can listen to it.”
