Episode 8: Show Up as Your Biggest Cheerleader
In Talia’s interview she spoke on the importance of being your own biggest cheerleader. I want to talk a little bit more about it because I think it’s so important but kind of hard to do. It’s a lot easier to cheer on other people and then feel bad about yourself because you’re not accomplishing the same things as that other person.
But change truly starts with yourself and with your mindset. What you tell yourself and how you treat yourself is so important. If you are struggling with negative self talk then understand that you are the only one that can make that shift.
I remember when I was in junior high. I was depressed and one of the things I went through was not liking the way I looked. I would tell myself I’m ugly and then I believed it. My therapist at the time told me everyday or every time I was in front of a mirror to look myself in the face and tell myself I’m beautiful. Because I was young and I wasn’t jaded or overworked I actually did it. And you know what? It worked!
In the beginning I thought it was silly but I kept doing it and at some point I began actually believing I am beautiful. I think about that a lot when I’m trying to change my mindset. I know it works, we just have to submit to the process and be consistent. Which is much harder now as an adult because our negative self talk has grown even more since its been on repeat since we were young.
Being your biggest cheerleader basically means loving yourself. This is kind of a hard pill to swallow but... I believe you get what you allow. If you don’t love yourself then you will allow others to treat you poorly because you treat yourself poorly. And it’s hard to really love others as well. You can’t be your best self to others if you’re not your best self to yourself. It’s not a selfish thing to put yourself first and take care of yourself. You have to take care of yourself in order to take care of others.
It’s kind of like when you’re on an airplane when they do the safety instructions. They say if you have children put your oxygen mask on first and THEN help others with theirs. If you don’t put your oxygen mask on first you may run out of oxygen before you help someone else with theirs and then neither of you have oxygen. You have to help yourself first. And that means being loving and kind to yourself. Telling yourself how awesome you are. It may feel silly at first but keep doing it. I challenge you to make an experiment out of it. Can it really work? If you look yourself in the mirror and tell yourself you are amazing or whatever you need to hear every single day for a year and it doesn’t change your perception of yourself then email me on my website (www.showuptogoup.com) and I will send you $20. Please, prove me wrong. I promise you’ll be changed in the midst of it.

Episode 7 Show Up with Talia Gutierrez
Talia Gutierrez is a Delta flight attendant, a blogger, podcaster, speaker, and she hosts women's events on finding and growing self love. She is one of those special people that radiates love and is just as beautiful on inside as the out.
In this episode, Talia and I talk about being your own biggest cheerleader, finding her voice, and struggles growing up which led her to where she is now. She was even vulnerable enough to share the moment her life changed when she tried to take her own life.
Here is the breakdown of our conversation…
02:30 - What does it mean to show up for yourself?
Be your biggest cheerleader because no one else is going to cheer you on and support you as much as yourself.
03:50 - Talia’s backstory
She always wanted to do big things! It started with dreaming about being a weather woman and from there she learned different skills that have helped her find success in her current business (speaking, hosting, podcasting). Over the years she learned the thing that attracted her to the weather people she would watch was that they got to use their voice and bring information to people. She started out of college with a sales job that paid well and was remote but it didn’t fill her bucket which led her to Delta where she then found her business because she wasn’t feeling complete doing anything else.
07:30 - Have you ever struggled with finding or owning your voice?
She started out shy but having gone through trials and overcoming struggles she realized God gave her a voice for a reason. Not just a voice, but her voice. Which has given her the power to use it.
08:55 - Do you remember any specific examples when you used your voice for the first time and realized how powerful it is?
She always fought for the little guy and stuck up for her friends. She realized she could use her voice to encourage her friends but also stand up to bullies. She liked to be in leadership roles to lead by example.
11:00 - Can you talk about your mom being an influence in your life and what influenced you to want to speak so passionately to women?
Her relationship with her mom started off rocky and she went through a lot of drama growing up. Because God has forgiven her, she’s been able to forgive her mom, and understand she did the best she could. Since forgiving her mom she’s realized how strong her mom is which has empowered her to be strong as well. She loves speaking to women because she really feels like she understands them and can relate to them.
15:40 - What are some of the struggles/fears you’ve gone through and how have you overcome them?
Be real and be vulnerable because that's how you create great relationships. Her parents got divorced at a young age and she always yearned for her dad but grew up feeling invisible and turned to negative habits to try to fill that void. After college she tried to take her own life and luckily wasn’t successful and through that experience she grew stronger. She realized at that moment she was made for more. You can’t choose the experiences you’ve been through but you can choose the type of future you want to have. Your story is an honor.
22:15 - Did that experience change your perspective from just focusing on yourself and your pain to focusing on others and how there is more to your life than pain?
It was a wakeup call but also a journey that took time. You can’t skip the pain. You have to go through it to grow. She decided to go inward and work on and understand herself. It began her personal development journey. We were not put on earth to be mediocre. We can change the world.
24:55 - Do you have any advice to anyone that feels stuck and has given up on their dreams?
Don’t listen to that inner voice or negative, limiting beliefs. Tackle your struggles one step at a time. If you try to tackle it all it once it can lead to feeling overwhelmed. If you believe you’re amazing you can do amazing things. Know your worth and know you deserve it.
28:00 - Do you have a specific person that is your inner voice?
Her’s is little Talia - which she learned through therapy. She learned that her inner voice (little Talia) feels lost and invisible and so scared. She actively tells herself it’s okay and that she doesn’t have to be perfect and it’s okay to fail.
30:38 - What is your favorite quote that you love or love to live by?
“What I create has the potential to shape the world” - that encourages her to keep showing up. You don’t have to wait for others to take action. You can make change and make the world a better place. Believe you are a superhero.

Show Up to Go Up Podcast
Episode 6: Show Up to Your Abuser
This is heavy but important stuff. I was super nervous to release this episode for lots of different reasons but I want to speak up and support my sisters! So here goes...
I had 3 things happen to me in 4 days - 1. I recorded the Scarcity Mindset episode for this podcast and I spoke about an exercise we did at RISE called Stand Up for Your Sister where we were all given a piece of paper with a bunch of tough statements such as “I’ve suffered from depression” or “I’ve lost a child.” We anonymously passed our paper until it was lost in the sea of women and then when Rachel read each statement we would stand up if the new paper we had, the paper of another anonymous woman in the room, had marked that she had experienced the statement Rachel read. It was a very powerful and emotional thing. I knew one of the statements was “I have been raped.” I thought maybe I’d see a hundred women stand but no, wayyy more stood. Over a quarter of the women stood up. It was eye opening and heart breaking.
THEN the next day I find out an old friend was sexually abused. THEN I watch Bombshell (great movie about the sexual harassment scandal at Fox News). It was all too much for me and my emotions (I may or may not have been on my time of the month but that’s besides the point)! I was emotional and so I posted a picture on social media sharing my truth of these 3 things and how mad and sad I was for all the women who have gone through sexual abuse. I said “I see you and I support you. I’m hurting with you. And I’m here for you.” It was a post supporting other women. And then at the last minute I added a sentence about how when I was younger a producer tried to drug and take advantage of me. A bunch of people commented on it telling me I was brave and strong but I wasn’t trying to be brave and strong. I was trying to be a cheerleader for other women. A friend commented that it was coming up because I was going to heal. I thought that was a lovely thought but I didn’t need to heal.
And then...a guy commented on it. A guy who, in high school, when my friend left for the bathroom he came out of nowhere and laid on top of me and wouldn’t get off and tried to force me to kiss him. It wasn’t until he heard my friend flush the toilet that he jumped off and we never spoke of it after that. I was so shocked by what had happened I didn’t know what to say. He commented on the post and said “truth.” And I remembered that moment and the struggle trying to get out from under him. I remembered a couple years ago when a few other women mentioned him sexually assaulting them as well.
Then I remembered the guys in junior high who would hold me down and take turns grabbing my boobs. I had forgotten about it because we were all friends and they didn’t mean anything by it, right? But I never wanted nor asked for them to do that. Yet, I let it happen because I didn’t know how to say no.
Then I thought at what point do I stop making excuses for these guys? At what age? This is not okay. I never asked for any of these things and they are happening to women every single day. Why is this something we have to deal with? It’s not okay.
I realized I have been suppressing my story because I didn’t think it was good enough to be told but I realized by me telling my story it sheds light on this issue and hopefully it’ll help others to find the courage to share theirs as well. We aren’t just women, we are people, and we deserve to be treated like it.
If you have been sexually abused in any way I am so sorry! It’s not your fault. Those men that do those things can be very manipulative and no matter what happened, you aren’t in the wrong! And you aren’t less than for it. You are amazing, and beautiful, and so strong! I encourage you to talk about what happened with someone - even if it’s just a therapist so that you can heal. Or you can email me here - showuptogoupco@gmail.com. I promise I will listen!
If you haven’t been through this then please pay attention. Don’t turn away because it’s heavy or hard to hear! We are stronger in numbers. Love and support each other. Know that everyone has a story and a battle they are fighting. Be kind and lead with love.
My goal is to reach and help as many people as possible. If you like this podcast please share it with your friends so they can be inspired and motivated as well.

Show Up Despite Uncertainty
Tuesday Mar 17, 2020
Tuesday Mar 17, 2020
Daaaanggg it is a scary time right now. I don't know how it is where you live but in Atlanta full on panic has set in. I went to the grocery store yesterday (Thursday) at 2pm and it was PACKED! Like the night before Thanksgiving packed. I can feel the panic and fear in the air. News of the Coronavirus is everywhere. Basically unavoidable BUT - that doesn't mean you can't be a light during this dark time.
Things are getting canceled left and right but we have to keep moving forward despite these things happening that are out of our control. When there is so much negativity in the world we have to make the decision to seek out positivity. There are things that you can't control and there are things that you can. It doesn't serve you to focus on the things that you can't control. I know there is a lot to be stressed and disappointed about - I booked a national commercial that fell through - but it's going to be okay. I'm choosing to believe that things will work out according to God greater plan and taking steps to live a more positive, hopeful life rather than one of fear because I don't know what's going to happen next so being fearful will only diminish my quality of life in this moment. Instead, I want to savor this moment. So with that being said, here are my top tips to embrace the positive and live your best life.
1.) Lean into God. Pray and let your fears go to up. Ask him for peace of mind. He is in control and he's got you!
2.) Start a practice of gratitude - What you focus on grows. If you are focusing on all the negativity in the world, you will see more negativity (and be more unhappy). There is a lot to be anxious about with everything going on but that doesn't mean you have to focus on it. If I've learned anything in my 30 years it's that we are not in control. None of us know what's going to happen next. The only thing you can control is yourself. Yes you can wash your hands more and avoid crowds but I'm talking about your mindset. You are in control of your thoughts. A thought may pop up out of nowhere but you control if you choose to listen to it or not. Don't give power to the negative thoughts. Focus on the positive. Start a practice of gratitude. Every morning make a list of 3-5 things you are grateful for. It will change your outlook. People need your positivity.
3.) Meditate every day. Even if it's only for 2 minutes, start somewhere! So many people are so resistant to meditating but it has truly helped me be more present and let go of so much overactive thinking and anxiety that was weighing me down and making me depressed. It's allowed me to have more mental energy for other, better things. We only have so much mental energy per day so don't waste it on anxiety. Understand it's going to be a challenge when you first start because it's a new thing and anything that's new starts out hard but embrace the challenge and know as you push through it, you are becoming a better version of yourself! Focus on the benefits of how great you'll feel once you make it a habit. All it takes is a couple minutes a day and it's so worth it! Here is a 5 minute guided meditation I used to use when I first started meditating (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=utfw-rJUvy4).
4.) Go outside and enjoy nature. Turn off your TV, get off your phone, and go outside. Slow down and enjoy/appreciate the beauty of the world. There is something so peaceful about being in nature. The plants are still growing and the animals are still living. Maybe we can learn something from them and their simplicity. There is a whole world beyond Coronavirus.
5.) Take time to love yourself and be the best version of yourself. If you need to rest, rest. If there is something that has been on your heart to start or pursue, now is the time! Have the courage to go for it! What do you have to lose?!
You don't have to be fearful! What is that fear doing for you? Fear manifests in a lot of ways including anxiety, lack of rest and sleep, anger, depression, and physical illness. Notice how they are ALL negative. By being fearful you are making yourself more susceptible to all of these negative things. But you don't have to. You have a choice! You can be proactive and intentional! Yes, the Coronavirus is contagious, but so is panic, fear, hysteria, love, enthusiasm, kindness, and joy. Choose wisely! Your friends, your kids, and the world need your positivity.

Comparison is one more thing that I’ve always struggled with. As long as I can remember I have compared myself to others and felt bad about myself as an effect from that comparison. My first memory of this was one of my first memories - in daycare at the tender age of 3ish. My best friend had another friend and I wanted to be the one and only friend (also not good at sharing apparently). I would compare myself to this third girl and try to be cooler to win my friend back. First off, the only way you can be cooler is to be more of yourself. I truly mean that. I know some people that are sooo weird but they are truly themselves and I’m obsessed with them. Own it! Second off, I was developing a super unhealthy relationship with comparison that would continue for years.
At the RISE conference I learned that I wasn’t just comparing myself to those ahead of me and feeling bad about it, I was also comparing myself to those behind me on their journey and letting it stroke my ego. Feeling so good about myself because I’m ahead of someone else. But either way it’s a waste of time and a distraction. I’m not where I want to be and I won’t get there by looking at and focusing on those around me. I have to put my head down and run my race. And you have to do the same.
5 ways of overcome comparison:
- Love yourself and pour into yourself so much that you understand how amazing you are. Make a list of all the things you’re good at and all the things you’ve accomplished big and small. Read it daily. Be proud of yourself and all that you’ve done thus far.
- You get what you focus on so focus on gratitude. If you look for things in your life that you’re grateful for, you will find more things to be grateful for. It will change your mind and your heart and you will be overall more happy because you’re not coming from a place of negativity or entitlement. Start a gratitude practice. Write down 3-5 things you’re grateful for everyday. Big or small. Be consistent with this and it’ll change your life.
- God made you perfect. You are enough and you are amazing! Trust God’s timing for your life. He literally chose you. What you see as flaws are part of the charm and are what make you special and unique. Werk it!
- Enough is enough! Ever been in a dysfunctional relationship where you kept going back even though you knew it was unhealthy? The only way to end the cycle is to decide enough is enough. You deserve more. Make the decision to let go of comparison and focus on your journey.
- Quit thinking and take action. Right now! Go for it! Whatever you’ve been thinking about doing, do it! Start. Take steps toward your goals. With steps will come confidence and excitement. Focus on your path and your path only and then get into motion!

I hate the word failure! It’s not something I grew up viewing as a good thing. For me, failing meant you were terrible and awful and not good enough. How wrong was I?! Little did I know, the only way to success was through failure. You learn valuable lessons that make you better through the failures and obstacles.
In regards to the creation of the light bulb, Thomas Edison said “I didn't fail 1,000 times. The light bulb was an invention with 1,000 steps.” Each failure is a step on your path. What if you had the courage to fail at something 1000 times? Imagine how good you’d be! Let your faith be stronger than your fear of failure. You can achieve all things through God who gives you strength!
Here’s a curveball - maybe the problem isn’t fear of failure. Maybe you don’t want to take risks because you’re not on the right path. You’re not in alignment with who God created you to be. When you’re on the right path it will feel good and exciting. You’ll be excited to do the hard work and fail because it means you get to learn and get better. Have the courage to pivot if you need to.
Failure is a part of the process when you’re in the game. It means you are in action. Michael Jordan is a big time failure. He missed over 9000 shots and lost over 300 games. Yet he’s considered one of the greatest of all time. Noticing a pattern here? You gotta fail big to succeed big.
Change the way you think about failure…
- Failure is a part of the process so welcome it
- Failure is an opportunity to learn, pivot, and grow. If you’re not where you want to be right now and you’re not excited about life, make a change. If you’re not sure what you want to do, make figuring it out your goal and try/fail as many things as possible until you know what you love.
- Make it a goal to fail as much as possible. In all aspects of your life. Growth is on the other side of failure and after enough growth you will find success.
In this episode I talk about YOU the tv show. If you haven’t seen the tv show YOU on Netflix then you’re missing out! Check out this trailer...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=srx7fSBwvF4

FEAR - Forget everything and run OR Face everything and rise?
Have you ever feared for your life? It’s something that you can’t really explain but it is so intense and overwhelming. When you are in any kind of perceived danger fear immediately takes over. Your mind shuts off, your instincts kick it, and you usually lose control of the moment. But sometimes your perception of reality isn’t the truth.
One night a couple of years ago I experienced what it was like to fear for my life. I was in Iowa staying with my best friend, Cassidy. She had just moved into a new apartment and I wasn’t familiar with the apartment or area. One night I came home after a work meeting and walked into her apartment (this is Iowa - people don’t lock their doors!) and see a man push her out of the way! FEAR TAKES OVER! I freeze and then...I RUN FOR MY LIFE down the hall screaming bloody murder. You learn a lot about yourself in moments of extreme fear and they say you either fight or flight and I was flighting outta there! I get to the stairwell, ready to call 911, but before I do I decide to call my friend. I’m convinced she’s not going to answer (hello! She’s in the middle of getting murdered!) and... then… she answers. WHHAAATTT?! She’s as calm as a cucumber and I’m as tense as a hooker in church. After some back and forth I learned that I was on the wrong floor the entire time! Here I thought I was in danger but my perception of reality wasn’t true. I was afraid because my perception was that my friend lived on the second floor. And yet the truth was she lived on the third floor. Poor couple that I scared the crap out of! Sorry about that!
I know this is an extreme example but it’s not that different than the fears we deal with everyday. Our fears can feel so real that they seem like they’re true but most of the time they are created by us. I want you to think about your fears. I’m not talking about phobias here I’m talking about deep rooted fears. The fears that keep you up at night. For me it’s the fear of not being talented enough or good enough in general.
Is there a chance that maybe the fear you’ve been telling yourself isn’t the truth? **Maybe your perception of your fear is on the second floor but the truth is on the third floor. Earlier I talked about fight or flight when fear arises but sometimes there’s a third action and that’s to freeze. If you are feeling stuck behind a fear that feels so great that you don’t know how to overcome it I want you to pay attention because here are 5 tools to help live with and overcome your fears.
1.) Get clear on what your fears are and where they come from. Spend some time reflecting and going inward. For me it comes from my dad. He never told me I wasn’t good enough but he wanted me to be the best in everything I did, so unless it was the best, it wasn’t good enough. I carried that with me for years, but the first step was the awareness of it.
2.) Face it/them head on. Say it out loud or write it down. Go as deep as you can and be as specific as you can. Why are you afraid of this trying this new thing? What would happen if you did? Sometimes writing it down helps you to realize how illogical that fear is. If you avoid your fear you give it power, if you face it I promise it will shrink.
3.) Visualize what could go right. Fantasize about all the amazing things that could happen if you do your fear. You truly never know what it will be like until you do something.
4.) Equip yourself with necessary tools. If you are afraid to give a speech then watch other speakers or practice so that you are confident instead of fearful. Knowledge and preparation lead to confidence.
5.) Take action with your fear. Understand that some form of fear will always be there. As you grow, new fears will come because growth happens outside of the comfort zone and in the unknown. Elizabeth Gilbert, who wrote Big Magic and Eat Pray Love talks about when she starts anything new and scary, such as writing a new book, she thinks about going on a road trip. She tells her fear that her and creativity are going on an adventure and she welcomes fear to join the adventure but she clearly lets her fear know it will not be involved in any of the decision making. Only her and creativity are allowed to do so. Give space to your fear but don’t let it make the decisions. You are not defined by your fears. You are the driver of you life!
You can do this! Don't just read these tips and forget about them. Actually take time to apply them. Doing these things changed my life! This blog and podcast wouldn't be here if I didn't apply them. You have to do the work. It's not always easy but it's so worth it. Everything you've ever wanted is on the other side of fear! Face Everything And Rise!

My first episode! Thank you so much for being on this journey with me! My name is Steph and I am a good old fashioned Midwest people pleaser. Although I left the Midwest, the people pleaser trait has stuck around with me over the years. FOR 15-20 YEARS! You know what they say, “you can take the girl out of the Midwest but you can’t take the people pleaser out of the girl.” I tried so hard to please everyone around me and be liked by everyone that I lost who I was and what I stood for. Real quote - “If you stand for nothing, you fall for everything.” And by 2019 I had fallen. I was overextending myself and I was miserable.
Lucky for me, being miserable was a catalyst for change. I made MY self and MY happiness a priority. Something that can sometimes feel very selfish but is the first step to being a loving, happy, human being. Love yourself and you can love others more easily! I read a bunch of personal development books, wrote and reflected in a journal, and saw a therapist. Instead of ignoring my issues I finally dealt with them and now I want to help you do the same! You were made for more. You were not created to be unhappy. No matter where you are in life know that it’s never too late to show up for yourself. And if you show up consistently you will go up. You will find happiness and success whatever that means to you. I love you and I’m here for you!
