Ep. 351 - Brianna Wiest on How to Stop Delaying Your Purpose
EXPANDED Podcast by To Be Magnetic™
Embracing Authenticity in Creation
This chapter explores the challenges of perfectionism and the inner critic that artists face, emphasizing the importance of personal authenticity in the creative process. It highlights the necessity of prioritizing genuine expression over external validation, encouraging listeners to create freely without the pressure of social media scrutiny. Through shared experiences and reflections, the chapter advocates for vulnerability and trust in oneself as pathways to meaningful connections and personal growth.
If you’ve been waiting for a sign to start that dream, share your truth, or trust your voice—this is it. Today, Jessica is joined by bestselling author and speaker Brianna Wiest (The Mountain Is You, The Pivot Year, The Life That’s Waiting) for a powerful conversation on quieting that inner critic, creating from your innate authenticity, and following the pings that can set you up for radical transformation.
This episode offers a behind-the-scenes look into Brianna’s internal journey: how she rewired limiting beliefs, released the pressure to be seen a certain way, and began creating from a space of deep self-connection. Her story is not just about success—it's about stepping fully into authenticity and watching life meet you there. It’s a powerful conversation that serves as a reminder that the thing you’ve always wanted to do is tapping you on the shoulder. It could be a career change, stepping through fear for the relationship of your dreams, or finally creating the thing that’s been living rent-free in your head for years. There’s something magical in the air here in 2025. The time to start taking those aligned actions is now.
