24. Why 'Wellness' Is Actually Toxic

Yep, I said it. Even as a "Wellness Coach" I'm claiming that Wellness can be toxic! In this episode, you'll learn:

  • Why wellness is toxic and can cause anxiety
  • What "wholeness" means and why that should be the focus instead
  • How to tap into your wholeness

 Journal Prompts to check in on your wholeness:

  1. How is your sleep? Not based on your apps but how do you feel when you wake up in the morning? Are you getting enough sleep?
  2. How is your movement & nutrition? Are you restricting/denying yourself in any area?
  3. Do you have a sense of spirituality; something bigger you believe in?
  4. Do you have space to yourself & allow alone time?
  5. Do you have a community? Friendships?

Journal Prompts to discover areas where you can improve your wholeness:

  1. How are you feeling?
  2. When it comes to your body & mind, what are you proud of?
  3. What areas (if any) have you been denying yourself?
  4. Why has it been important for you to not receive that?
  5. What would happen if you did allow that into your life?

About the Podcast

Beyond Awareness: Closing the Gap Between Knowing and Doing
Closing the Gap Between Knowing and Doing
Beyond Awareness (formerly Journal Entries) is for successful women in leadership and business who know exactly what they need to do but can't make themselves do it.

You know you need to prioritize yourself, delegate more, set boundaries, stop bringing work home. You've tried therapy, coaching, retreats. You know the solution - but you either can't follow through, or when you DO, it doesn't stick.

Host Samantha Hawley helps business owners and executives earning $100k+ excavate the root beliefs underneath the execution gap. Why do you keep not doing the thing? Why doesn't it feel better when you do? Using strategic journaling and emotional excavation, we go beyond awareness into why you're actually stuck in the pattern.

This isn't about more tactics or tips. This is about understanding why awareness isn't enough and what actually needs to shift for you to change.

You'll hear about: decision fatigue, why you can't prioritize yourself, nervous system regulation, being present with your kids, root cause of overwhelm, why boundaries don't stick, self-sabotage patterns, and how your internal state impacts everything.

Perfect for: Female CFOs, VPs, directors, executives, business owners, and women in leadership who are tired of knowing what's wrong but not being able to change it.
