Episode description

When daily podcast episodes for 30 days blurted out of my mouth during a recording ... I knew I had to create an environment where I would be inspired to show up ... even when it was hard.  Even when I didn't feel like it.  Even when a sandwich was calling my name.

I posted in a networking group of women asking for some support ... I gathered my girls and they didn't disappoint.  

NO MATTER what your next right step is, intentionally surrounding yourself with women who are a) in the arena with you and b) wanna see you succeed just as much as they want success for themselves ... is KEY.

GATHER your GIRLS and FIND your GIRLS ... to step into your baddassery.

Empowering Women Through Community Support

Speaker 1

I'm so glad that you're here . You are listening to . What the fuck did she just say with your host ? That's me , sandra Priestly . I'm all about living our best life and finding our zone of brilliance and then removing the resistance so that we can go all in .

I say random , crazy shit , which is why I called this podcast the way that I did , and I really hate long drawn out intros . So let's fucking go . Last week in this podcast , I don't know if it was like episode 67 , 68 . I don't know .

I had changed it up because I just thought I would just do a season one and have like the the number of episodes , just like , keep going , you know , like , and eventually I get to like episode 1,352 .

But when I was on that last episode at what flew out of my mouth was thinking I think how it went , was I said something and then I said on yesterday's episode . And then I caught myself and went shit . I just said yesterday's episode and prior to this I was uploading once a week In the second .

In that moment I just felt like , okay , well , I said yesterday's episode , it must be God , the universe , spirit , my guides , my angels saying Sandra , do daily podcasts . And as it flew out of my mouth . I thought , shit , I have to do daily podcasts , okay , and I committed to it . In that moment it felt like I needed a new season for that .

It felt like I needed fresh , new energy . So I created season one episode or season two , episode one , and I kind of went on from there . But I also knew that I needed there was a couple of things . I announced it on the podcast , so , you know , I couldn't take it back . But I also felt like I needed to gather my girls .

So I am in in this networking group . Uh , I don't , I don't . There's like 60 some thousand women in this networking group . There's like 60 some thousand women in this networking group . But there's some of us who are VIPs who meet on Wednesdays .

But what I thought was I need to gather my girls , I need to get support , I need to have people who I know are going to listen , so that I don't shit the bed on this Right . And so I posted in this group and I said that I felt I had a podcast that I loved , that I felt like I had abandoned and I was going to show up messy .

I was going to show up without editing . I was going to show up and do 30 days of daily podcasts . Now I am starting to love it so much Maybe I'll continue , but I didn't want to commit to 360 . I'm not Taylor Quinn . I didn't want to commit to 365 days and then fall down , so I just want to start 30 days at a time . I can do 30 days at a time .

I think you can do anything for 30 days . That's what I figure . But I posted in this group and I said I'm showing up messy , I'm showing up in my own energy , without any editing and just like let's fucking go . And what I said in the bottom was it's rated E for a reason Like I am a sweary chick .

What was interesting was that post probably got weight , probably double , maybe even more of the comments and the likes and the loves and the interest that I have ever gotten in that group . And I have a number of the women who are in that group who are now either subscribed to this podcast , they're listening to this podcast . I see you .

I love that you're here . Thank you so much for supporting me . Thank you so much for showing the fuck up for me , because I see I can look into the episodes and I can see . I can see that there's people from my , my , my twin , from Cape town , I like . I can see that she's watching or listening to my podcast and I love the fact that she's here .

I love the fact that you're all here listening to what the fuck am I saying every day . It means so much because I get into this energy of like wanting to show up for you . I think that that is what is amazing about community . When I was a Beachbody coach , I loved the challenge . When I was a Beachbody challenger too , I saw such value in the community .

I saw such value in creating this environment where you're supported by people , especially supported by women . I think , man , we shit on ourselves a lot , right , and each other a lot . I don't know where this mean girl scrap came from , but we need to get over ourselves . I remember hearing one time I mean men make more money than us .

There are more millionaire men , there are more billionaire men , and I think men just kind of do their own thing in the way that they do and we are like crabs in a box . One woman starts to climb out of the box and somehow we got to pull her down . It doesn't make us climb out of the box , you know , but this is what we do .

So I love creating containers where everyone is supporting , where all of us women are supporting each other and we cheer on each other like there's no tomorrow .

I love intentionally placing myself in groups like that , in networking events , where women support women , where we show the fuck up If someone says I really need you to follow my podcast just for a little bit , just to keep me going past day three .

Day three is always a tough one for me , but just to keep me going through day three when I it is so incredible to be able to post in that group and have a bunch of women go . I'm following you . This seems fun . Fuck it , let's go . Thank you , because I'm going to join you . I'm going to do the same thing . I have a podcast too .

I'm going to go live every single day when I can get messages going . Fuck , yes , let's go . Thank you for posting this . I'm doing it too . It feels so empowering . It feels so amazing . What , like ? What are the ? Where are the ? Where are you showing up ? Who are you surrounding yourselves with ?

I used to say to my kids all the time if you are the average of the five people that you hang out with . Stop hanging out with shit rats , right ? Stop hanging out with people who are not going to get you to where you want to go . My son is playing semi-pro football . He hangs out with football players . He hangs out with players .

He intentionally surrounds himself with players who either have played pro or are in the same like in their arena with him . Right , they're in the same boat . They're working towards the same things . I intentionally create containers that are supportive and worth

Building a Supportive Community of Women

it . In what the fuck did she just manifest in my membership ? Called the powerhouse . Every single woman in that group would be supportive of another woman in that group . If they fell down , they would pick them up . If they had something to celebrate , they would celebrate even more so than you ever could imagine . Gather your girls . Where can you find them ?

If you are currently surrounding yourself with people who are not pushing you to be better , pushing you to you know , be that badass , be that powerhouse why are you not Find your girls , gather your girls and show up for them ? Thank you so much for listening .

I hope you've had some laughs , maybe some ideas , and that you've been inspired to take some type of action toward the life you've always dreamed of . If you feel so called , I would love it if you would share with your besties and leave a review down below . I look forward to bringing you along on this journey and I will see you in the next episode .
