I Know Better So Why Do I Keep Doing it?

If you have ever caught yourself repeating an old habit and thought, "I know better by now, so why did I just do that again?" this episode is for you. In Episode 14 of The Shared Diary, Lori Phillips, Debbie Prediger, and Nicole Cowley explore the frustrating gap between knowing better and living differently. They break down why growth-oriented women are often their own harshest critics, how stress and familiar environments pull us back into old reactions, and why true progress is about noticing sooner rather than striving for perfection. Together they discuss: • Breaking out of shame and self-blame when old habits resurface • How to look at coping mechanisms with curiosity instead of judgment • Why familiar relationships can resist your personal evolution • The emotional weight of hearing "I'm disappointed in you" and how to heal through it • Reframing personal growth as personal mastery and gentle awareness Grab your journal, give yourself some grace, and join us inside the conversation.

Why Do Some Communities Feel Like Home and Others Don’t?

Why do some communities feel like home while others leave us feeling disconnected or like outsiders? In Episode 13 of The Shared Diary, Lori Phillips and Debbie Prediger explore the deeper meaning of belonging and connection. They talk about the power of being welcomed and remembered, the importance of creating safe and intentional spaces, and why community builders need to listen as much as they speak. They also discuss the two-way energy exchange of community, the difference between being around people who are like us and being around people who allow us to be ourselves, and why people are craving meaningful connection more than ever. This episode is a reminder that community is not simply about numbers. It is about intention, trust, safety, shared energy, and creating space for people to feel seen, heard, valued, and supported. The conversation also explores how online communities can lead to lifelong friendships, collaborations, personal growth, and opportunities to share our stories with the people who need to hear them. The Shared Diary Questions: What's bringing you joy right now? What's challenging you right now? What's inspiring you right now? What's one thing you're grateful for this week? Bonus: Who is someone you've met through community that you're grateful came into your life? The final diary reflection is: “I'm so grateful that I did the thing that I was scared of.” Learn more and find the episode archives and reflection guides at: https://shareddiarypodcast.com/ Ignite is a 4-week program for entrepreneurs and coaches who are ready to create intentional growth and move past what is holding them back.
