The Create Your Day Podcast
You built something. You’re proud of it. And somehow you still end up at the end of most days feeling like you’re one missed deadline away from losing it.
The Create Your Day Podcast is where we figure that out together. Hosted by Jenn Cody, operational consultant, nervous system advocate, and your unofficial business therapist, this show is for the woman who’s done white-knuckling her way through growth and ready to lead from a place of actual clarity.
We go there. Strategy, identity, the messy middle, the moment you realize the business you built is running you instead of the other way around. No fluff. No toxic positivity. Just real conversation that meets you where you are and moves you forward.
Jenn’s work lives at the intersection of operational systems and nervous system regulation, because sustainable growth requires both. The inner work and the strategy have always belonged in the same room.
If you’re ready to stop surviving your own success, pull up a chair.

65. The Power of Keeping Promises to Yourself
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Being accountable to YOU matters! Let's talk about what happens when we constantly break commitments to ourselves:
5 Common Ways We Don't Show Up for Ourselves:
1. Putting everyone else's needs ahead of our own
2. Procrastinating on important tasks and goals
3. Being inconsistent with healthy habits
4. Allowing negative self-talk and self-criticism
5. Staying in our comfort zone, avoiding growth
7 Strategies to Build Self-Accountability:
1. Regularly check in with the promises you're making to yourself
2. Start small - keep one tiny promise to yourself each day
3. Schedule your priorities and self-commitments
4. Have self-compassion when you stumble, and recommit
5. Celebrate when you follow through for yourself
6. Share your goals with supportive accountability partners
7. Periodically reassess if your self-promises still serve you
Conclusion:
- Our relationship with ourselves impacts every area of life
- Every small choice to show up for ourselves matters
- Think of one way you can keep a promise to yourself today
