10x Your Energy This Week by Dropping One Thing | Ep. 2

What if you had 10x the energy every week without adding a single thing to your plate? 📖 This episode is pulled straight from Chapter 6 of Annette’s #1 bestselling book, Unstoppable Babe™. In this episode, Annette shows you how to stop managing what people think of you. That habit is the hidden engine behind people pleasing, perfectionism, and playing small. Drop it, and you get your energy, confidence, and leadership back!

In this episode:

• Where your energy is actually going: the subtle ways you manage other people’s opinions without realizing it.
• The childhood moment that taught her “perfect = safe” and why that was never true.
• Perfectionism is simply the fear of being seen. It’s a learned safety habit, not who you are.
• The visibility shift: give “what if they love it?” the same airtime as “what if I fail?”
• Her first time on the mic: shaking hands, a dry mouth, one joke, and pushing play anyway.
• Effort vs. results: your effort is 100% yours, and their results are 100% theirs.
• The 5-word phrase that made her career take off: Not my circus, not my monkeys.

Key takeaways:

• You were born belonging. Being worthy is your birthright, not something you earn.
• Being bad at the beginning is the price of entry. Every great performer pushed play before she was ready.
• Calm authority comes from letting people own their results, in leadership, parenting, and marriage.
• How you show up is 100% your responsibility. How they take it is 0%.

Your challenge this week:

1. Run a tally audit. Make a mark every time you think about what someone thinks of you.
2. When you catch yourself managing, whisper: not my circus, not my monkeys.
3. Watch how much energy you get back.

You’re built for this. Bet on yourself babe 🖤
