One conversation you won’t wanna miss.

I have something special for you today.

After more than a year away from podcasting, I’m back behind the mic—and I couldn’t be more excited to share this new episode of Outgrow the Grind with you.

While the podcast took a little hiatus, I’ve still been showing up in your inbox, and I’m so grateful for our continued connection.

This new episode is close to my heart, and I think it’s going to speak to yours too.

In this return episode, “The Disease to Please”, I sit down with the brilliant changemaker Dr. Reuben Faloughi. Together, we explore the journey of unlearning people-pleasing and reclaiming your own needs—not as selfishness, but as something sacred.

It’s real, honest, and encouraging.

In the episode, Dr. Reuben and I talk about:

  • Why people-pleasing is a survival strategy (not a personality flaw)

  • How your early programming isn’t your fault—but healing is your responsibility

  • Reclaiming the word “selfish” as essential

  • How tending to your healing ripples out into collective liberation

  • What it means to truly choose yourself (not in theory, but in practice)

Whether you’re driving, walking, folding laundry, or sittin' on the porch drinking iced tea (sweet or unsweet, your choice!) —I hope this conversation leaves you feeling seen, supported, and reminded of your power to grow on your own terms.

I’m so glad to be back in your ears.

With heart,
Stacy
