In this episode of The Rachel Hollis Podcast, Rach looks back at who she was 10 summers ago and shares the lessons she wishes she had understood then. She reflects on learning to recognize her own power, stop seeking validation from others, trust her intuition, care less about other people’s opinions, and be more discerning about who she trusts and takes advice from. Rachel also shares the simple health habits she wishes she had prioritized sooner and encourages listeners to confront the problems they may be numbing or avoiding rather than relying on coping mechanisms.

In this edition of "Ask Rach" on The Rachel Hollis Podcast, Rach answers listener questions about feeling unappreciated by your family, finding the courage to end a relationship you know isn’t right, and refusing to let difficult experiences become your identity. She encourages parents to communicate their feelings clearly and continually teach their children gratitude and responsibility, while reminding listeners that hard conversations don’t require perfect words and instead require a willingness to speak truth from a place of love. Rachel also shares advice for moving forward after trauma, emphasizing the importance of separating what happened to you from who you are, reaching toward the person you want to become, and creating consistency and stability for children navigating grief and major change.

This episode is actually a video over on YouTube, and it’s much more fun to watch there because I’m making chicken salad while teaching you about goals (hence the chopping you'll hear if you listen to this instead of watch) 😂 But the lesson works just as well in your headphones!

The way I set goals at 43 looks VERY different from the way I chased them at 23. 

In this episode, I’m breaking down the three eras I’ve gone through: Aspiration, Conviction, and Compounding, and what each one taught me about actually getting where I want to go.

And these aren’t really about age. They’re about the season you’re in. So the question is: Which era are you in right now, and what does that mean for how you should go after your goals?

In this episode of The Rachel Hollis Podcast, Rach shares three simple lists she uses to stay productive, clear mental clutter, and keep her biggest dreams front and center. She explains why a “results list” can be more effective than a traditional to-do list by focusing on meaningful outcomes, recommends a digital brain dump for capturing ideas instead of relying on memory, and introduces the “someday list” as a place to write down the dreams and experiences you want to pursue... even when you have no idea how you’ll achieve them yet. Rachel encourages listeners to spend less energy simply staying busy and instead create systems that help them make measurable progress, free up mental space, and stay connected to the future they want to build.

In this edition of "Ask Rach" on The Rachel Hollis Podcast, Rach answers listener questions about finding yourself again during an overwhelming season of motherhood and finally making progress on goals when you feel like you’ve been stuck for years. She encourages listeners to acknowledge when life has been harder or different than expected, prioritize genuine self-care before demanding more productivity from themselves, and push past the initial discomfort of getting back into the world. Rachel also explains that when you know what to do but still aren’t taking action, the missing piece may be a goal exciting enough to pull you forward, a powerful enough reason for pursuing it, or a community that challenges you to grow.

🎥 THIS EPISODE IS BEST ENJOYED ON YOUTUBE: [WATCH HERE]

This week’s episode is a little different. It’s part podcast, part vlog, and definitely better when you can actually see what I’m talking about. So if you have the option, come hang out with me on YouTube. If you’re driving, walking, folding laundry, or otherwise committed to audio, don’t worry, I’ve got you.

I’m catching you up on ALL the things: moving our family from Los Angeles to the Hudson Valley, our new house, what country life actually looks like, and some of the changes happening in this new season of my life. I’m also getting personal about perimenopause, my health, and why I’m considering HRT. Basically, life looks very different these days, so grab a coffee (or put in your headphones) and let’s catch up. 🤟

In this throwback episode of The Rachel Hollis Podcast, Rach sits down with clinical psychologist and Good Inside founder Dr. Becky Kennedy to rethink what effective parenting looks like and how parents can raise resilient, confident kids without relying on punishment or shame. Dr. Becky explains her “sturdy leadership” approach, which centers on setting firm boundaries while validating children’s emotions, and shares practical strategies for responding to strong-willed kids, teaching emotional skills, and repairing moments when parents lose their cool. Together, they explore how our own childhood experiences shape the way we parent and emphasize that learning new parenting skills can not only strengthen our relationships with our children, but also help us become more confident, emotionally grounded versions of ourselves.

In this edition of "Ask Rach" on The Rachel Hollis Podcast, Rach answers listener questions about finding confidence in a high-level leadership role, managing guilt after divorce, and navigating a relationship with a partner who travels frequently for work. She encourages a newly promoted executive to seek outside support through coaching or a mastermind, trust the skills that earned her the role, and focus on playing to win rather than simply avoiding mistakes. Rachel also discusses the importance of emotional boundaries with an ex-spouse, recognizing that you cannot do someone else’s healing for them, and finding ways to embrace independence, adventure, and the joy of missing your partner during time apart.

In this episode of The Rachel Hollis Podcast, Rach explores how a tiny shift in the words we use can change the way we experience our lives, focusing on the power of the phrase “I am.” She encourages listeners to stop turning temporary feelings into permanent identities, replace exaggerated or self-deprecating language with more accurate descriptions, and separate what actually happened from the story they tell themselves about it. Rachel emphasizes that this practice is not about denying difficult emotions, but about naming them honestly and choosing language that creates more agency, clarity, and opportunities to move forward.

In this episode of The Rachel Hollis Podcast, Rach delivers a motivational push for anyone who feels ready to give up on a goal or dream, reminding listeners that wanting to quit is often a natural part of pursuing something difficult and meaningful. She encourages listeners to focus on taking the next right step, recognize how much progress they’ve already made, push through the “messy middle,” and refuse to let criticism, rejection, or other people’s limitations determine what they believe is possible. Ultimately, Rachel argues that perseverance matters more than perfect motivation and challenges listeners to keep moving forward so they can build a life they’re proud of rather than look back with regret.

In this edition of "Ask Rach" on The Rachel Hollis Podcast, Rachel answers listener questions about rebuilding after a major business failure, attracting the right buyer when selling a business, and using old journal entries without getting stuck in the past. She encourages listeners to view failure as valuable experience rather than a definition of who they are, pair visualization with practical action when pursuing a goal, and measure personal growth by looking at how far they’ve come instead of fixating on how far they still have to go. Rach emphasizes that setbacks can become assets in your next chapter and that practices meant for personal growth should ultimately help you move forward and not keep you analyzing the past.
