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.

Why Personal Growth Makes You Outgrow People (and What It Really Means)
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 is talking all about the quiet, uncomfortable truth of personal growth: when you choose yourself, you will outgrow people. She unpacks why levelling up often leads to losing friends, shifting identities, and feeling misunderstood, even when you’re finally doing what’s right for you. Katy explains how people-pleasing, fear of judgment, and nervous system safety can sabotage your next level if left unchecked. This episode is a reminder that the grief, the loneliness, and the empty space are not signs you’re failing - they’re proof that you’re evolving.
Key Takeaways:
Growth will cost you relationships - and that’s not a failure.
When you change, not everyone can come with you, and that can feel painful and confusing. But outgrowing people is often a sign that you are finally honouring your true self.
People-pleasing will keep you stuck in an old identity.
You cannot evolve while trying to make everyone else comfortable. Letting go of being the fixer, the perfect friend, and the emotional caretaker is part of stepping into your next level.
Your nervous system will resist change before it supports it.
Self-doubt, fear, and sabotage show up when your system perceives growth as unsafe. Awareness is the first step in choosing expansion anyway.
You need to be in rooms with people who speak your language.
If you only surround yourself with people who celebrate the destination, not the journey, it will feel lonely. Community with like-minded people is not optional; it’s essential.
Empty space is not loss - it’s preparation.
When people leave, they create energetic and emotional room for new opportunities, aligned relationships, and bigger visions. Learning to trust the space is part of trusting yourself.
