46. The Scariest Part of Journaling & Prompts to Get Through It

Journaling can be scary! It brings up your subconscious thoughts; and once you identify those deep thoughts, desires, etc...you can't turn back. It doesn't happen all at once, though. In this episode, I share how I started viewing my life from a different perspective, started asking better questions & how I tackled the root of my emotions.

We talk about the fears of:

  • What will happen if you uncover something 'big'
  • What you might write
  • Someone finding & reading your journal entries

Journal Prompts:

  1. Why am I afraid to tap into my emotions? What is my biggest fear that i think might be uncovered?
  2. What is the worst case scenario if I don’t address this area of my life?
  3. What is the BEST case scenario?
  4. How am I feeling? What would help me feel better?

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.
