Unshakeable Talks
The Unshakeable Talks with Katy Schweiger lifts the lid on what entrepreneurs are really going through - the mistakes, the pressure, the myths we’ve been sold, and the messy reality of balancing business and life.
This isn’t another podcast teaching strategy or pretending success is seamless. It’s about raw, honest conversations with female entrepreneurs who are doing it all - the wins, the wobble moments, and the truths most people never say out loud.
Because running a business as a woman isn’t harder, but it is different - and it’s time we talked about it.

The Hidden Identity Crisis Women Hit on the Way to Success
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode of Unshakeable Talks, Katy’s opening up about something every ambitious woman hits at some point - the identity crisis that comes with success. We talk so much about growth and next levels, but no one really prepares you for what it means to become the woman who can hold it. Katy shares how the version of her that built her first success couldn’t carry her to my next one, what it took to let go of control (as a mum, as a CEO, and as a recovering perfectionist), and why business coaching started to feel too “safe.” This conversation is for the women who feel stuck - not because they’re failing, but because they’re still trying to succeed as their old self.
Key Takeaways:
Success isn’t about strategy, it’s about who you’re becoming
You can have all the plans, templates, and systems in the world, but if your identity isn’t growing with you, you’ll keep hitting the same ceiling. Real growth starts when you decide to evolve, not just execute.
Your next level needs a new version of you
The version of you who got here can’t take you there. Leveling up means letting go of old habits, old stories, and the “safe” ways of doing things that don’t fit where you’re heading.
The fear of being seen is what keeps so many of us small
Stepping into more visibility can feel terrifying. You’ll worry about what people will think, but that discomfort is usually just your growth showing up in real time.
Letting go of control is the real test of growth
Whether it’s delegating in your business or asking for help at home, giving up control feels hard - especially for women who are used to doing it all. But you can’t reach your next level with both hands full.
Self-doubt doesn’t mean you’re not ready - it means you’re expanding
That voice saying “who am I to do this?” isn’t a red flag, it’s a sign you’re stretching into new territory. The work is to notice it, name it, and keep going anyway.
