Stand Tall & Own It - Irreversible Recognition
Something shifted. You can feel it. You just can't name it yet.
Stand Tall & Own It is for women in the second half of life who are high-functioning on the outside and quietly disoriented on the inside. You built your life inside systems you trusted completely — until something revealed those systems weren't what you thought.
Host Andrea Johnson doesn't offer formulas. She offers honest thinking, sharp observation, and the kind of conversation that makes you pull over and sit in your driveway.
This is where the real work starts.

In today’s episode, we look at self sabotage. Why we are afraid to succeed, and how we can learn to short-circuit those terrible little cycles inside our heads that keep us from achieving what we are both capable of, and created for.
Topics discussed in this episode:
Self sabotage - is it the fear of success or is it something else?
- Fear of being seen / known
- Fear of failing or being discovered as a fraud
- Fear of rejection or not meeting expectations
- Fear of scarcity - not having enough money to pay my bills
Success pathways:
- Disrupt the cycle - do something drastic or different.
- Put one foot in front of the other.
- Remember who else is invested and make it about them instead of you
- Being accountable to others. Don’t live on an island alone - listen to those who have been there and support you.
