[021] Deconstructing Identity, Surrendering Control, and Rebuilding from the Soul: Let’s Take It All Apart with Lindsay Leahy

 

🎙 Host: Mandy 🎙 Guest: Lindsay Leahy

020 Episode Summary

In this deeply personal and unfiltered conversation, Lindsay Leahy and I unravel the layers of identity, leadership, faith, and family—sharing things we've never said out loud before. We explore what it truly means to Take It All Apart in order to rebuild with intention. If you're in the thick of transformation, this one’s for you.

In this episode:

  • Releasing old versions of ourselves to reconnect with who we truly are

  • The messy, beautiful unraveling of identity, ego, and expectations

  • Motherhood, marriage, friendship, and the hard conversations in between

  • Vulnerability, faith, and the divine process behind Take It All Apart

  • Spiritual awakenings, grief, guilt, forgiveness, and healing childhood wounds

  • Leading with intention, managing energy, and creating space for the life you actually want

Why it matters:

When one woman tells the truth about her life, it creates space for others to do the same. These personal stories of unraveling and rebuilding aren't just about us—they’re about all of us waking up to who we really are, and choosing to live with intention, not illusion.

Reflection Questions:

  • What relationship can we have here that is healthy?

  • Are you doing things out of love or obligation?

  • Are we holding onto old versions of ourselves and other people?

  • Can you picture the person you are triggered by as a little boy/girl?
