Congruent with Lisa Carpenter | The truth beneath success. Why it never feels like enough.

The Congruent Podcast explores the conversations most successful people don't have often enough.

Hosted by Lisa Carpenter, each episode features honest conversations with founders, executives, entrepreneurs, thought leaders, and high-capacity professionals about success, leadership, fulfilment, and what changes once you've achieved the things you once thought would make you happy.

Through a blend of solo episodes and in-depth interviews, Lisa examines how our definitions of success evolve, the hidden patterns that shape how we lead and live, and why accomplishment doesn't always create the experience we expected it would.

If there's a question at the heart of this podcast, it's this:

Does your success feel the way you thought it would?

Because the greatest costs of success are often hidden inside the very patterns that created it.

In episode 194, Lisa shares how she's approaching her 50th birthday and how being "halfway to dead" had changed her outlook on life and business. She invites her listeners to look at what they are making important in their lives and "if" it's actually important.
Are you LIVING your life, or does it feel like life is living you? What are you settling for? What are you giving importance to that isn't that important? Your lifespan on this planet WILL end and that is pretty much the only thing you can be certain of, however you have the power to make choices every day to support your life. Are you choosing things that make you feel the way you want to feel? Have the experiences you want to have? Live in a way you feel fulfilled, joyful and excited to get out of bed, or are you just going through the motions?
This episode invites you to get curious about how you're spending your days, your time, your energy and your money. Do your choices invite in the life you want, or create more of what you don't want? Are you in a holding and waiting pattern?
After you've finished listening to the episode, jump in to Lisa's DM's and share with her what you're going to start saying YES to and what you're going to say NO to. You've got one life. NOW is the time to claim what you want and take responsibility for creating it.

In episode 193, Lisa shares the importance of exploring what you are committed to and why quitting might be the right answer to creating the success you want. Most people believe more equals better, however, the opposite is often true. Letting things go and getting things off your plate will create space to allow more peace and ease into your life. This can be a challenging pill to swallow for most high functioning, driven individuals, however, the consequences of spinning too many plates often comes at the high cost of exhaustion and feeling like you're never doing a good enough job.
Consider for a moment how much your identity is wrapped up in "finishing" and what you make it mean if you quit. But does it mean anything? If quitting is a choice that allows more of what you want in and LESS of what you don't THIS is what it means to win.
Please share this episode if it resonated with you with another ambitious, driven individual who probably needs to hear this message as well.
I'd love to hear from you over on my Instagram at lisacarpenterinc!

In Episode 190 Lisa introduces you to her client Alyssa who generously shares her coaching journey.
Alyssa came to Lisa struggling with her health, anxiety, overwhelm and a feeling of being broken. She described herself as relentless in pursuit of self betterment, while not realizing that wanting to find a solution was keeping her trapped in her problems.
In today's episode, you'll learn how Alyssa went from over-functioning, over giving, and over-doing to establishing boundaries that support her energy and allow her to care for her well-being. She's learned how to stand up for herself, let things go that aren't important, release things that aren't her responsibility and identify what her needs and wants are so that she can make those a priority.
Even though she was running a successful business, you might be surprised that Alyssa didn't see herself as successful. As like many highly driven and ambitious women, Alyssa was measuring success through a skewed lens of not enough, which was keeping her trapped in a loop of believing she needed to do more to create the success she wanted without being able to recognize that what she wanted was already right in front of her.
Many of you will see yourself in Alyssa's journey and Lisa's hope is that she will inspire you to never give up in seeking the answers you're looking for but reminding you that when you have the right support you'll be able to find yourself realizing that you have everything you need to feel complete.
8:39 - Alyssa tells her story.
10:22 Alyssa’s relentless pursuit of betterment.
13:46 Alyssa describes her battles with boundaries and feeling responsible for others due to her fear of letting people down.
17:03 The difference between caring and caretaking.
22:00 Alyssa’s relationship with scarcity and how she shifted her belief.
26:28 How Alyssa released beliefs of perfectionism and living in the past.
31:35 How Alyssa’s belief of perfectionism was rooted in self-importance.
33:14 Alyssa’s step into receiving.
43:20 How working with Lisa helped Alyssa move from watching life on the sidelines to walking freely.

In Episode 188, Lisa chats with her client Nicole about the transformation she's experienced over the past 18 months. Nicole went from feeling overwhelmed and constantly in a state of busy, to doing less while creating greater success, more profitability in her business but most importantly more TIME for herself and the people she loves. She's now a priority in her life with a greater sense of balance between business and spending time with her family.
She shares her story of how perfectionism and unrealistic expectations were depleting the joy from her life and her business, and how she overcame these hurdles to re-invent her business model while having more fun and allowing herself to get "messy". Nicole is a beautiful example of what's possible when you stop hiding inside large group programs and work intimately with a coach.

How many times per day do you find yourself thinking about what you want? Perhaps it's about the weight you want to lose, the money you want to make, the trip you want to take, the vision you have for coaching with Lisa or the TIME you want to chill out, relax and find some peace? In episode 187, Lisa shares some personal reflections about the stories she would tell herself about her dreams and desires. She was living in the "when /then" thought loop that so many of you don't realize you're also living in. Desire doesn't create your dreams, but taking action will. In today's powerful episode, Lisa challenges her listeners to look at what they're holding at arms length from themselves and the stories and excuses they're using as to why they can't yet have their desires realized.
You say you want it, but are you willing to get uncomfortable and take action to have it?

In episode 185 Lisa walks her listeners through her four step transformational process. Although you might believe that transformation and inner growth is a line from point A to point B, Lisa shares how this perspective often keeps people trapped and stuck in "awareness". Her Full Frontal Living™ Method is more of a spiral that has no beginning and no end, and when her clients master how to navigate this method, they'll always know what steps to take next to continue to progress.
You're probably realizing that there comes a time when large group coaching containers can only do so much, and you need DEEPER support, accountability and eyeballs on places you can't see in yourself.
Applications are officially open for her 11-month intimate group coaching container called the Full Frontal Living™ Collective.
Only 10 spots are available and are by application only.
