What if the person you become isn't shaped by one big decision, but by what you practice every day?
Maggie Judge returns to the Power Lunch Podcast for a deeply personal conversation about what it means to live intentionally. After breast cancer changed the way she thought about time, relationships, and the life she wanted to create, Maggie began asking herself a powerful question:
What am I practicing?
Because we're all rehearsing something.
We can practice courage, self-trust, love, and the way we want to show up when life gets hard. Or, without realizing it, we can rehearse worry, fear, self-doubt, and the stories that keep us stuck.
Maggie joins Amy Sousa, Tracie Munce, and Lisa Carmichael to talk about learning to recognize those patterns, separating ourselves from the voice of our inner critic, and making small choices today that support the woman we're becoming.
She also introduces Mira, the AI reflection partner she created to help women notice what's happening internally, stay with themselves instead of immediately trying to fix what they're feeling, and choose how they want to move forward.
IN THIS EPISODE
You'll hear us talk about recognizing what you're unconsciously rehearsing, why Maggie gave her inner critic a name, what Olympic swimmer Michael Phelps can teach us about preparing for difficult moments, how small emotional "twinges" can build when we continually ignore them, and how AI can become a tool for reflection rather than another source of noise.
And maybe the biggest question of all:
Are the things you're practicing today preparing you for the woman you want to be tomorrow?
A FEW MOMENTS WE LOVED
“What am I practicing as a way to move through my life differently?”
“We are always practicing and rehearsing. It’s whether or not we’re doing it intentionally.”
“Mira helps me stay with myself, not fix her, not abandon her.”
“Who am I dressing for, the version of me right now, or the woman I’m becoming?”
“Notice, stay, and choose. That’s the practice.”
