Description

What if the only thing holding you back is a story you didn’t even write?
In this episode of Taking Flight with Megan Holly, we’re talking all things self-limiting beliefs, outdated labels (like “I’m shy” or “I’m too much”), and the quiet ways they shape how we move through the world.

Megan shares how she went from “shy, quiet girl” to a woman who records podcasts, shows up boldly online, and lets her silly, magical self take up space. You’ll learn how to name the story, question whether it’s really true, and start making tiny 10-second actions that rewire your belief system over time.

If you’re craving more confidence, ease, and alignment in your life, business, or relationships, this episode is your permission slip to unsubscribe from the old story and write a new one.

In this episode, we explore:

• What self-limiting beliefs actually are (and where they come from)
• How childhood labels like “shy,” “quiet,” or “too much” still run our adult lives
• Naming your story so you can see it clearly and start to rewrite it
• The “mind gremlin” (aka Regina) and how she twists your thoughts
• Interrupting your fear spiral and building a staircase of tiny brave actions
• Going from autopilot to awareness and why that shift changes everything
• Using 10-second actions to gently push your comfort zone
• How micro choices in your routines, style, and self-care reshape your confidence
• Letting go of what no longer serves you and stepping into your bold, aligned self

Journal / reflection prompts:

• What labels or stories about yourself feel heavy or outdated right now?
• Is this belief actually true today… or just familiar?
• What’s one 10-second action you can take THIS WEEK to challenge that story?
• If you unsubscribed from that old belief, how would you show up differently?

Try one (or more!) of these 10-second actions:

Pause this episode and:

• Send the email you’ve been avoiding
• Make the phone call that scares you a little
• Hit “publish” on the post that feels more “you”
• Book the session, class, or conversation that moves you forward
• Then come back and tell us how it felt. 💬
