    Menopause and Friendships. Why does it feel so hard??!!

    Send Shana a Text Message

    Hey everyone! Welcome back! In this episode, I get super real about the ups and downs of friendships. After listening to a Simon Sinek podcast, I felt inspired to share my own struggles with making and keeping friends, especially during perimenopause and menopause. ADHD has definitely turned up the volume on my fear of rejection too.

    I talk about how important community is and how the lack of close friendships has really hit me. You'll hear about my overthinking and why I sometimes pull back from social interactions, even though I know how awesome it feels to connect. This episode is all about being aware, putting in the effort, and pushing past fears to keep those important friendships alive.

     Let's get real about how tricky friendships can be and figure out how to keep those connections strong.

    What happens when you stop trying to control everything.

    Send Shana a Text Message


    Today I share how I'm learning (emphases on the ING) how by letting go of trying to control everything and embracing change actually makes life easier. I'd say it's one of the benefits of aging for sure. The older we get the less we care so much about shit.
    In this episode I talk about ditching overthinking and trusting your instincts more, about opening up to outcomes outside of your expectations.

    Join me for a real, no-bs conversation about  surrendering to life's flow.

    Loving ourselves no matter what our size.

    Send Shana a Text Message

    As I get older, I can't help but think about the whole weight and body image thing.  I've had my share of ups and downs when it comes to my body, and I'm sure you can relate. 

    But you know what I've come to realize? It's all about embracing and loving yourself, no matter what size you are. ❤️

    Let's collectively ditch the overthinking about our size and celebrate our bodies for all the amazing things they can do! 🎉 So here's to self-love, acceptance, and rocking our unique sizes with style and grace!

    Perimenopause. We really need to talk about it.

    Send Shana a Text Message

    Talking all about perimenopause today. This has been a huge topic of conversation in my home and with friends as I am fully into my own menopause journey. 

    I share with you what my experience has been so far as well as sharing symptoms, how it's been for my husband, to what it's been like dealing with doctors trying to find relief. I share my frustrations and more. 

    It's my hope that this episode helps more women realize they aren't going crazy or dying of some weird disease... that it's most likely PERIMENOPAUSE.

    2023 the year I burned it all down

    Send Shana a Text Message

    Oh hi 👋🏼👋🏼 

    Long time no chat... 

    Soooo I'm ready to re-emerge from my 2023 cocoon and get back into the groove with my love of talking and sharing on this podcast!  

    Today I share experiences and reflections on my personal and professional life and why 2023 was the year I burned it all down and now I'm ready to start rebuilding!!

    I've been feeling the nudge big time to get back to sharing on this platform and have conversations about ALL THE THINGS including, but not limited to: menopause, career changes, personal development, entrepreneurship, and whatever else happens to be on my mind at the time. 💁🏼‍♀️

    My new mission here is to create a space for open, honest and REAL conversations about all the things.

    No idea where we're going... but I'm certain we'll have some fun. 

    Are you with me?

    Debbie Weiss: On Second Thought... Maybe I Can

    Send Shana a Text Message

    Welcome back to the "How it's really going" podcast! 🎙️

    Today, I've got something a little different for you... Back in August, I had the privilege of sitting down with one of my favorite clients, Debbie Weiss! And today I'm bringing this episode to you, and there's a good reason behind the delay.

    You see, Debbie launched her very first book, "On Second Thought, Maybe I Can," in August, right around the time we recorded this chat. But my podcast took a little hiatus as you know so it didn't make sense to plop this in at that time.

    But I'm back, and excited to share this inspiring conversation with you.

    Debbie is a remarkable individual with a story that'll give you all the feels. She's faced adversity and tough situations throughout her life, but she's the kind of person who refuses to let anything hold her back.

    Her memoir, "On second thought, Maybe I Can," dives deep into her incredible journey, chronicling the challenges she's overcome. Debbie's resilience shines through. She didn't just survive; she thrived. ✨

    In this episode, we delve into the nitty-gritty of her book writing process, the launch event she hosted with 60 people, and her aspirations to make a difference by sharing her story through public speaking.

    I'm baaaack! A bit of a life update + a hard lesson I learned in hiring my last coach.

    Send Shana a Text Message

    Hey there, welcome baaaaaack to "How It's Really Going with Shana Recker"! 

    In this episode, I'm excited to share some recent changes in my life and what you can expect from the podcast moving forward.

    So, as you know, I've made a bit of a pivot in my career recently. I've shifted away from business coaching and started focusing more on specialized services like Kajabi work and graphic design. It's been quite a journey, and I've found immense fulfillment in this new direction. I'm all about those word-of-mouth referrals, and I've even taken on a part-time job at a salon, which has been a blast.

    But it's not all about work. I've also been diving headfirst into my passion for abstract art and hosting paint nights. It's amazing how creativity can light up your life.

    One of the big themes I want to talk about today is the importance of letting go of societal pressures. It's something I've been working on myself, and it's made a huge difference in reducing my stress and improving my overall well-being.

    I'll also share some insights on how to effectively vet coaches based on my own experiences.

    So, join me on this journey of self-discovery and growth in future episodes of "How It's Really Going with Shana Recker." Thanks for tuning in!

    You're not a quitter, you're reinventing yourself. Changing the narrative around quitting your business.

    Send Shana a Text Message

    Ever felt like a quitter just because you changed your career path or switched your business focus? It's time we view these transformations not as acts of surrender but as brave steps towards reinventing ourselves. Just like Madonna, who is celebrated every time she reinvents her image, we need to shed the negative connotations associated with change and embrace it as a powerful push forward.

    Drawing from my own personal experiences, in this episode I reflect on the liberation that comes from releasing what no longer serves you and making room for new growth. Don't miss this transformative discussion that promises to reshape your views on change and inspires you to welcome the process of reinvention.

    Ditching the pressure: How getting a job can help create balance as an entrepreneur

    Send Shana a Text Message

    Have you ever felt super overwhelmed and burned out by the constant demands of social media and entrepreneurship? I know I have. In this episode, I share my personal journey of finding balance and peace by stepping away from the relentless hustle of entrepreneurship and taking a part-time job. This decision not only provided financial stability but also greatly improved my mental health and happiness. The pressures and stresses associated with social media and business coaching can be overwhelming, and I open up about the challenges I faced and the negative impact it had on both my personal and professional life.

    This episode serves as a reminder that it's okay to seek balance and prioritize mental health in the pursuit of success.
