You don’t have to say sorry. 

Her tray table in an already noisy aircraft accidentally slammed down, and she promptly apologized to me, the other first-class passengers, and probably the tray table. 

I get it, without judgment…” I’m sorry” was my go-to phrase. 

I need to pass by someone at the market, “I’m sorry;” I got the name of a movie wrong, “I’m sorry;” I was 30 seconds late, “I’m sorry;” Crying because something made me upset, “I’m sorry.”

You may do this too. It can seem like you’re being polite, but what you’re really doing is demeaning and shaming yourself for being a less-than-perfect human. 

Now, I AM NOT SORRY. I may have gotten in your way a little by accident, and so what. If it feels right I’ll say, “pardon me.” 

In Italy, they say “scusi” (excuse me)…it’s said in a light non-self-blaming way. 

A pleasant Zeeeerrrrroooo fu€ks given.

Never apologize for being human. 

Never say “I’m sorry,” when you really mean to say excuse me or pardon me. 

Never apologize just to keep the peace or come across as polite (or “lady-like”).

This doesn’t mean you swing the pendulum the other way and be a BIOTCHY JERK…what it means is you stop automatically shrinking yourself down constantly for every little thing you do and don’t do. 

When I made this shift, I started to hold my head up higher…stopped attracting as many toxic people, and the abundance that rolled in was undeniable when I owned my worthy place in this world (flaws and all).

EP 760 2026 Glow Up Protocol: (THE BODY) How to Get Your Energy, Body, & Skin Snatched- Even If You Feel Unmotivated right now

If your energy feels inconsistent, your body no longer responds the way it used to, and your skin seems to reflect stress more than confidence, this episode explains why that is happening at the identity and nervous system level.

The 2026 Glow Up Protocol begins with the body because every habit, every discipline pattern, and every glow up is controlled by internal safety signals, not motivation.

This episode is part of the 2026 Glow Up Protocol, a 6-part identity reset covering the body, the bank account, the business, the brain, the being, and the boundaries. It is designed for burnt out high achievers who are ready to stop pushing harder and start becoming the version of themselves that success actually sticks to.

EP 759 2026 Glow Up Protocol: (THE BRAND) How to Create a Magnetic Personal Brand That Matches Your True Self

Your personal brand is not your logo, your colors, or your social media bio. It is the identity you live from every single day. It is the story you tell about who you are, what you stand for, and what you believe is possible for your life.

This episode is the starting point of the 2026 Glow Up Protocol, a six part identity transformation playbook designed for high achievers who feel burnt out, disconnected, and ready to deliberately craft a life that feels aligned instead of draining. This is a completely different way to approach personal growth, because nothing changes sustainably until your identity changes first.

Your brand is the hub of the wheel. It is the center that everything else spins from. Your body, your brain, your business, and your relationship with money will never feel stable if the story you tell about yourself is outdated.
