The Megan Waldrep Podcast

Have you ever had a reaction to someone that felt way bigger than the situation seemed to warrant? 

Of course you have! You're human! So let's figure out how to take our power back in that situation to help us evolve past it. 

In this episode, we'll explore how moments of frustration, anger, jealousy, rejection, or hurt can become opportunities for deeper self-awareness and how curiosity can help us respond rather than si...

We hear “love yourself” all the time, but what does that actually mean? How can you understand the idea of self-love without actually feeling it?

In this episode, we explore a simple way to experience self-love as a felt sensation rather than just another affirmation you’re supposed to believe (they don't always land, do they?). Instead of trying to manufacture feelings of love for yoursel...

For years, I believed that bigger breaths were always better.

"Take the deepest breath you've taken all day. Fill your lungs completely."

If you've taken a yoga class, you've probably heard these cues countless times. But what if breathing bigger isn't always breathing better?

In this episode, I explore a fascinating perspective I learned through Oxygen Advantage that challenged what I tho...

What happens when you're the only sober person in the room?

In this episode, I share a story from a weekend with old friends. And what unfolded reminded me that clarity, connection, and spiritual insight don't have to come from changing your state of consciousness. Sometimes they come from becoming fully present in the one you're already in.

This isn't an ep...

Have you ever come home from a reunion, a weekend with old friends, or a visit to your hometown feeling...off?

Maybe you had an amazing time, laughed until your stomach hurt, and genuinely enjoyed reconnecting...yet afterward you felt emotionally drained, anxious, or even a little depressed. If you've ever wondered, "Why do I feel this way when nothing bad even happened?" you're not...

What if one of the most freeing realizations in your spiritual journey is this:

You are not responsible for someone else's awakening.

In this episode, I'm sharing an idea that's brought me so much peace over the years. From therapy and sobriety to breathwork and everyday relationships, I've learned that we can't force people to change, no matter how much we love them.

Instead of carrying t...

Have you ever wondered if you're protecting your peace...or just avoiding discomfort? It's a question I've been asking myself lately.

We hear a lot about setting boundaries (and I'm all for healthy boundaries), but sometimes it's hard to know where the line is between honoring ourselves and quietly hiding from the things that help us grow.

In this episode, I'm sharing a mindset shift inspired by an Instagram Reel that sent me down ...

Have you ever wondered whether manifestation is really about getting what you want… or becoming the person who can receive it?

In this episode, we explore how the perspective on manifestation has evolved over the years.

This isn't a conversation about manifesting harder. It's a conversation about showing up differently.

In this episode, I share why stress regulation doesn't have to take an hour. Learn how small moments can create meaningful change and why one minute may be all you need to reconnect with yourself.

We'll chat about:

• Why we believe self-care requires time
• The all-or-nothing mindset
• Several small actions you can do to feel calmer when you need...

*Super special and intimate episode about a recent loss I'm experiencing, and I want to bring you in. Why? Well, when someone we love dies, we're often given a funeral, a few days to gather with family, and then an unspoken expectation to return to life as usual. But grief rarely works that way.

In this episode, I share my experience following a Buddhist-inspired 49-day mourning pra...

In this episode, I’m talking about the idea that every thought is an investment in your future. (Not in a pressure-filled way, but in a way that makes you feel freaking great!)

The way you think shapes the way you feel > shapes the way you show up > shapes your life.

This episode is your reminder that you are not stuck. You are building something one breath, one thought, one moment at a time. You've got this.

In this episode, I’m diving into the part of mindset work that changed everything for me: the body.

Because thoughts don’t just stay in your mind. Your body feels them too.

When you’re anxious, your body tightens. Your breathing changes. Your nervous system reacts before you even realize it.

But the opposite is *also* true: Your body can help lead you back to calm.

This episode is about learning to feel good in yo...

In this episode, I’m talking about the moment that changes everything: catching the thought.

Most of us don’t realize how much of our day is running on mental autopilot.

One thought turns into a spiral, and before we know it, we’re already stressed, overwhelmed, or assuming the worst.

This episode is your reminder that your thoughts are no longer bossing you around. And here's how to do it.

In this episode, I’m talking about the moment that changes everything: catching the thought.

Most of us don’t realize how much of our day is running on mental autopilot. One thought turns into a spiral, and before we know it, we’re already stressed, overwhelmed, or assuming the worst. 

But here’s the good news: You don’t have to stop every negative thought from happening. You just have to notice i...

In this episode, I’m diving deeper into something we hear all the time: “What you put out, you get back.”

But instead of focusing on actions (like being kind, which, yes, always), I want to talk about something even more powerful… your thoughts.

Because here’s the truth: You’re not just thinking all day long, you’re shaping your reality, your future, and your life.

I break down:

• Why y...

If you’ve been feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or stuck in your head, this episode is your reminder that relief doesn’t have to be complicated.

In today’s quick reset, I walk you through one of the most powerful (and overlooked) tools you always have with you: your breath.

This is a bite-sized practice you can use anywhere (at work, in the car, standing in line) to calm your body, clear your mind, and reconnect with...

I used to think being a good partner meant fixing everything (keeping the peace, making sure everyone felt okay, and jumping in whenever something felt “off.") But what I’ve learned (and am still practicing) is that real support doesn’t always look like doing more… sometimes it looks like doing less.

In this episode, I’m sharing a simple but powerful concept that completely shifted how I show up in my...

In this episode, we’re talking about grounding practices… like, what the heck are they anyway? I break down what grounding actually is, why it matters, and how you can use it in real life when your mind starts spiraling or stress takes over.

This isn’t about being perfect or having it all figured out. I’m sharing what I’m learning right alongside you, so you can take what works, leave what doesn&rsquo...

Today, I’m talking about something that comes up for all of us on a self-growth journey...the feeling that you’re somehow going backwards.

You start doing all the “right” things like meditating, journaling, moving your body, and showing up for yourself. But instead of feeling better, everything feels harder.

I’ve been there. We talk about:

• Why self-improvement can feel worse before it feels b...
