In this solo episode of Season of Stuck, Deanna takes us on a personal journey through her recent season of stuck—and shares a few of the key tools and strategies she used to get unstuck. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, burned out, or simply unsure of your path forward (and let’s be real—who hasn’t?), this episode offers inspiration and actionable steps to help you break through the inertia and find your way to a more empowered, unstuck place.

Tune in to learn:

• The story of Deanna's most recent bout of stuckness—and how she went from burnout, overwhelm, and feeling completely stuck to reclaiming her identity and moving forward
• How cold plunging jump-started her journey to getting unstuck
• The power of writing letters to yourself to challenge negative thoughts
• Why trying new things can create momentum and lead to lasting change
• How dreaming and envisioning new possibilities helped Deanna rediscover purpose and meaning
• The power of this podcast—and how it helped Deanna get unstuck

Thoughts from the episode:

“I had tied so much of my self-worth and identity to my business—and when that business changed, so did the way I saw myself. It took a lot of work to reclaim a sense of self outside of my career.”

“The more you write to yourself, the more you’re reinforcing self-compassion—and the more you reinforce it, the more it will grow.”

“Dancing taught me that it’s okay to do things simply for the joy of them. It doesn’t matter how good I am—what matters is how it makes me feel.”
