The Luxe & Leveraged Podcast with Michelle Hext

Last year, I had a choice: continue down the same (misaligned) path or trust my instincts and burn it all down.   Now...in hindsight? I see how much taking the safe, familiar, misaligned path was truly costing me...a complete shift in identity, a regulated nervous system and MILLIONS of dollars.   Let's talk about it!   M x   LINKS   My Website. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.michellehext.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠   The PODCAST Millionaire™ https://www.michellehext.com/tpm-v1/   My INNER CIRCLE Mentorship https://www.michellehext.com/inner-circle/   Come say "hi" on insta! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/michellehext/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@MichelleHext?sub_confirmation=1 Substack https://substack.com/@michellehext   Tiktok https://www.tiktok.com/@michelle.hext

In this episode of the Luxe and Leverage podcast, Michelle reflects on her journey over the past year, discussing the importance of consistency, the need for personal time off, and the transformative experiences that have shaped her path.   She emphasises the value of journaling as a tool for reflection and growth, and shares insights on embracing change as she looks forward to the new year.     TAKEAWAYS Taking time off can be a necessary part of self-care. Reflecting on the past year can provide valuable insights. Journaling helps track personal growth and changes. Embracing change can lead to unexpected positive outcomes. It's okay to not have something to share every week. Celebrating small wins is important for motivation. Looking back can highlight how far you've come. Personal growth often comes from doing things differently. Planning for the future involves reflecting on the past.       LINKS   My Website. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.michellehext.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠   The PODCAST Millionaire™ https://www.michellehext.com/tpm-v1/   My INNER CIRCLE Mentorship https://www.michellehext.com/inner-circle/   Come say "hi" on insta! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/michellehext/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@MichelleHext?sub_confirmation=1 Substack https://substack.com/@michellehext   Tiktok https://www.tiktok.com/@michelle.hext         podcast, reflection, consistency, change, personal growth, journaling, time off, year in review

The 3 Principles That Guided Me in 2026 In this episode, I’m breaking down the three principles that shaped my year, helped me step into a new identity, and finally stop repeating the same patterns. 1️⃣ Let Go & LeaveI realised old rooms, communities and relationships were keeping me tied to an old identity. I made the decision to leave, without drama, and create space for the woman I was becoming. 2️⃣ Go DeeperLetting go exposed the real inner work I had avoided. Instead of fighting it, I met it with curiosity and calm. I finally healed parts of myself that were running the show. 3️⃣ Do Things DifferentlyI didn’t want another year that looked like the last one. So I made different decisions and took actions I had never taken before. That alone changed everything. This episode is simple, honest and practical, and it’s for anyone ready to stop repeating old cycles and step into a year that genuinely feels new.   LINKS   My Website. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.michellehext.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠   The PODCAST Millionaire™ https://www.michellehext.com/the-podcast-millionaire/   My INNER CIRCLE Mentorship https://www.michellehext.com/inner-circle/   Come say "hi" on insta! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/michellehext/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@MichelleHext?sub_confirmation=1 Substack https://substack.com/@michellehext   Tiktok https://www.tiktok.com/@michelle.hext  

2025 has been a year of extraordinary growth for me as a founder and personally, and I put that down to one simple thing:   DECIDING to do things differently.   After years of living the definition of insanity, ie, doing the same things expecting different results, I committed to creating REAL change.   In this episode, I share the areas I did things differently and how those decisions shifted EVERYTHING.   I also leave you with a powerful question as you head into 2026.
