  • Faith Without Fear: Choosing Love Over Labels

    Faith Without Fear: Choosing Love Over Labels
    Dec 18 2025
    Episode Summary: In this WTF episode of Evolve Beyond Limits, Stacy Gissal and Becca Lamar have an honest, nuanced conversation about faith, spirituality, and the damage that can occur when belief systems become rigid, judgmental, or rooted in fear rather than love. Sparked by recent public conversations around Christianity and inclusion, this episode explores what happens when people confuse certainty with truth and superiority with morality. Stacy and Becca share personal experiences of growing up without religion, being questioned or dismissed for not carrying a specific label, and still living deeply values-driven lives grounded in kindness, integrity, and compassion. Together, they challenge the idea that there is one “right” path, one acceptable belief system, or one way to be spiritual — and invite listeners into a more expansive, human, and curious approach to faith. This episode isn’t about tearing belief systems down. It’s about returning to the essence of love, humility, and connection — and asking harder, more honest questions about how we live what we say we believe. You’ll Learn: Why fear and judgment are often disguised as love — and how to tell the difference How rigid belief systems can push people further away from connection instead of toward it Why questioning faith doesn’t weaken spirituality — it often deepens it The danger of tying identity and worth too tightly to labels, doctrines, or certainty How walking your values matters more than preaching them Why humility and curiosity create more spiritual growth than righteousness ever will How to see people as teachers rather than problems to fix What inclusive, embodied spirituality actually looks like in real life Key Takeaways: Faith rooted in fear creates separation; faith rooted in love creates connection. There is no moral superiority in certainty — growth lives in curiosity and humility. You don’t need a label to live a values-driven, ethical, meaningful life. Judgment blocks learning. Compassion expands it. Walking your values speaks louder than any belief system you claim. Spirituality doesn’t require agreement — it requires respect. There is no “one right way.” There are many paths, and most truth lives in the middle. Quotes Worth Sharing: “Certainty doesn’t make you right — it just makes you closed.” – Stacy “Faith rooted in fear will always create separation.” – Becca “You don’t need a label to live with integrity.” – Stacy “Questioning doesn’t weaken belief; it refines it.” – Becca “Walking your values will always matter more than preaching them.” – Stacy Connect + Continue the Work: Listen to more episodes: Evolve Beyond Limits Podcast Submit a question or reflection for a future WTF episode Coaching & workshops: stacy@evolvebeyondlimits.com General inquiries & submissions: chelsea@evolvebeyondlimits.com

  • The Two Principles That Quiet Stress and Restore Balance

    The Two Principles That Quiet Stress and Restore Balance
    Dec 10 2025
    Episode Summary: In this episode of the Evolve Beyond Limits podcast, Stacy introduces one of the most deceptively simple—and profoundly transformative—tools she teaches her clients: the Ayurvedic principles of “like increases like” and “opposites balance.” These foundational concepts help leaders understand what their bodies, emotions, and energy are communicating in real time, long before stress turns into burnout. Drawing from stress optimization, Ayurveda, and lived experience, Stacy explains why so many people unintentionally amplify their overwhelm and how small, intentional shifts can restore clarity, energy, and alignment. This episode is a practical guide to listening to your body, understanding your cravings (the real ones and the misleading ones), and choosing the right antidote for whatever state you’re in—before it becomes a crisis. This tool is subtle, powerful, and one of the fastest ways to return to your “stress sweet spot.” You’ll Learn: Why simple tools often create the most profound transformation The meaning behind “like increases like” and how it quietly amplifies stress, chaos, and emotional overload How “opposites balance” works—and why it’s the key to getting grounded, centered, and clear The difference between natural cravings (what your body actually needs) and perverse cravings (signals distorted by emotional or physical toxicity) Real-life examples of using these principles in clarity, relationships, embodiment, fatigue, rigidity, and more How to discern what your body is asking for—and how to respond in a way that restores balance Why your “medicine” can become “poison” if you cling to it for too long How to stop forcing balance and instead learn to return to it naturally A powerful pendulum analogy that explains how to live with more grace, resilience, and self-awareness Key Takeaways: Your body communicates what it needs in the moment—and often for the future, not the past. When you’re overwhelmed, stimulating yourself even more will amplify the chaos (“like increases like”). The antidote to discomfort is almost always found in the opposite quality (“opposites balance”). True clarity arrives when you stop hunting for it. When you feel disconnected, the antidote is connection—not withdrawal, nagging, or micromanaging. Being “tired” isn’t always solved by rest; sometimes your soul is craving excitement and aliveness. Rigidity requires softening; too much flexibility requires boundaries. One person’s medicine can be another person’s poison—and even your own medicine can stop working if you refuse to evolve with your needs. Balance isn’t a destination; it’s a rhythm of returning to center with more awareness each time. Quotes Worth Sharing: “The more we force clarity, the further away it gets.” – Stacy “Your body isn’t confused—it’s communicating. We just have to learn the language.” – Stacy “Like increases like. If you’re already spinning, more stimulation will only make the spiral faster.” – Stacy “Opposites balance: the antidote to any state is always found in the opposite quality.” – Stacy “We don’t have to force balance. We just have to notice when we’re out of it.” – Stacy Connect + Continue the Work: Download the free Stress Assessment & workbook at evolvebeyondlimits.com Explore the Six Leadership Disciplines: vitality, clarity, presence, courage, authenticity, vulnerability Coaching & inquiries: stacy@evolvebeyondlimits.com Podcast support & submissions: chelsea@evolvebeyondlimits.com

  • The Weekly Family Meeting That Saved Our Sanity (and Our Marriage) Work Smart, Play Hard

    The Weekly Family Meeting That Saved Our Sanity (and Our Marriage) Work Smart, Play Hard
    Dec 3 2025
    Episode Summary: In this Work Smart, Play Hard episode, Stacy and Andrew pull back the curtain on one of the most practical tools they use to “work smart and play hard” as a couple and a family: their weekly family meeting. Borrowed from the EOS Level 10 (L10) business meeting structure and adapted for home, their Sunday sit-down isn’t about who’s “in trouble”—it’s about alignment, focus, and actually feeling like partners instead of roommates or co-project managers. They walk you step-by-step through exactly how they run the meeting, why it’s been a game-changer for their relationship, and how you can copy/paste the process in your own home to create more connection, clarity, and capacity. You’ll Learn: What a “family L10” looks like in real life How they took the EOS Level 10 framework businesses use and turned it into a simple, repeatable Sunday meeting at home. The exact flow of their weekly family meeting: Wins + what you’re looking forward to Financial review + simple forecasting Calendar review (2 months, 1 month, and 1–2 weeks ahead) To-do list check-in (did it get done or not?) Issues list: decisions, problem-solving, and planning How the “issues list” becomes the brain for your life Why dropping everything onto a shared list during the week frees up mental space and prevents mid-week spirals and “we need to talk right now” energy. Why this meeting protects intimacy and connection How having a set time for logistics keeps date nights, conversations, and downtime from turning into nonstop project updates and planning sessions. How it shifts the invisible mental load Using the meeting as a collaborative space so one person (often the woman) isn’t silently carrying all the logistics, to-dos, and decisions. Why it’s one of their biggest “capacity” tools How planning meals, travel, busy weeks, and support ahead of time lets them hold more in life and business without constantly feeling like everything is on fire. How to handle the emotional side (especially around money) Why the meeting can feel like “exposure therapy” at first—especially if you have money anxiety—and how sticking with it can heal your relationship with finances and decisions. What to do with the “we don’t have time” objection Why not doing it actually costs more time and energy—and how to see this as a non-negotiable time investment in your relationship, not another task. Key Takeaways: Structure creates freedom. A weekly family meeting gives your logistics a home so your relationship can have more room for play, intimacy, and presence. If everything feels like a fire drill, you don’t have a system problem—you have a planning problem. Looking 2 months, 1 month, and 1–2 weeks ahead reduces last-minute chaos and resentment Your relationship is not a project—but it does need a container. When every conversation becomes about what’s next on the to-do list, you start feeling like roommates or business partners instead of partners in life. Quotes Worth Sharing: “Alignment and focus help a business move faster—and they help a family move faster, too.” – Andrew “If every conversation is about what needs to get done next, there’s no room left for intimacy, fun, or play.” – Stacy “I can rest easy knowing there’s a place for it. Once a week we’ll look at the money, the calendar, and the list.” – Andrew “This isn’t about one person picking up all the pieces. The family meeting creates a truly collaborative environment.” – Stacy “Any change is fun at first, then really hard—and then it gets better. You have to give this a chance to work.” – Stacy Connect + Continue the Work: 🎧 Listen to more episodes of Evolve Beyond Limits Podcast 🧩 Download the Family Meeting Templates mentioned in this episode - https://docs.google.com/document/d/1IPkN5FHVsSV9m4UZW9qTc7mMLKUE7R2MB-fPj8PoTus/edit?usp=sharing Family L10 agenda - https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Y7kLk72zd8CJdzjIEJvZSY12M85GrTBocP0tiBPIwO4/edit?usp=sharing To-Do List & Issues List sheets - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1VX13MKAfkGOXMLpaQ_1CGZWggJ1OYv8o/view?usp=sharing / https://drive.google.com/file/d/1YVYA87pPmeonxPvzTldigiDBgX-t5-yi/view?usp=sharing Meal planning sheet - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1zSUp-2MrkSyX7usC268RZwjHN5o9JlF2/view?usp=sharing 💌 Have a question for a future Work Smart, Play Hard episode?
