Wholey Schmidt

In this episode, executive coach and host Sarah Schmidt and our 21-year-old bestie Zoe explore why rest feels so hard and why so many of us feel guilty, ashamed, or “behind” when we slow down. They unpack the childhood messages, family patterns, and productivity conditioning that taught us rest is lazy, weak, or unsafe. After both being forced into rest through illness, they share what surrender revealed: deeper self-worth, clarity, and the truth that rest is where our real answers live. This conversation reframes rest as strength, healing, and purpose.

Our favorite intergenerational duo, 53-year-old Sarah Schmidt and 21-year-old Zoe, are back with a heartfelt conversation exploring what each generation can teach the other about life, purpose, and self-worth. Together, they dive into the universal struggles of perfectionism, procrastination, and feeling “not enough.” They unpack why so many people punish themselves under the guise of “self-improvement,” how to find purpose when you’re worried about money, and what it really means to love yourself through imperfection. Zoe opens up about graduating college, the pressure to have it all figured out, and the guilt that comes with not always doing the “right” thing. Sarah shares grounded psychological insights on black-and-white thinking, self-compassion, and the need for control — helping bridge the gap between wisdom and modern anxiety.

Why does being seen feel so uncomfortable—especially when we want to share? In this honest conversation, trained psychologist and executive coach Sarah Schmidt sits down with Grace and Jessica to unpack the deeper fears that surface when we show up online authentically. They explore the invisible scripts many of us carry—like “be seen, not heard,” “don’t boast,” and “don’t be too big for your britches”—and how these beliefs quietly shape our confidence, creativity, and ability to build a brand from the heart. Whether you’re a creator, coach, or simply someone who wants to express yourself more freely, this episode will help you understand the psychology of visibility and how to move through the blocks keeping you from being fully seen.

In this roundtable conversation with Sarah Schmidt, Grace Abbott, and Jessica Gill, we explore what happens after doing the deep inner work. Healing doesn’t end in the safety of therapy or journaling — it expands into real life, real relationships, and the moments that stretch us. Together, they unpack how to bring your emotions and anxieties with you rather than waiting until they’re “fixed,” what it looks like to stay energetically open to the universe and your desires, and how to choose life rather than letting it pass you by. Sarah also shares insights from her new dating dynamic, offering a raw look at what integration can feel like in practice. This episode is about stepping into the world, fully alive, and discovering that true healing unfolds when we’re willing to live it.

Sarah and Zoe are back, for a no BS back-to-school chat. This week’s episode gets real, raw, and maybe a little “woo-woo.” We dive into the paradox of wanting freedom without responsibility, joy without sadness, and health without discipline—and how the surprising truth is that freedom often comes from structure and commitment. From messy mornings and soft launches to deep reflections on accepting life’s lessons, we explore what it means to surrender control, embrace being wrong, and find growth in the uncertainty. We also touch on the pressures of your 20s, back-to-school stress, the weight of societal expectations, and how comparison on social media only fuels the fire. Through stories of silent retreats, unexpected cuddles, and even the power of self-talk, this conversation is about learning to soften into life’s challenges, shift our relationship to stress, and remember that the “season of what you need” can open the door to everything you want.

We’re back! In this episode, Zoe (21) and Sarah (53) dive into the messy, rewarding, and often hilarious realities of navigating personal growth and romantic relationships. This intergenerational duo — and close pair of friends — share candid reflections on the vulnerability of getting to know someone new, and how to stop overanalyzing and start living in the present. They explore how embracing vulnerability creates deeper connections, why letting go of perfectionism matters, and the unexpected lessons that come from failure. Fresh off a weekend at Lollapalooza — full of laughs, iconic outfits, and a few viral TikToks — Zoe and Sarah open up about how to have fun without drinking, while still prioritizing their wellness routines. From staying energized through long days of dancing to their nightly ritual of a slice of healthy cake (yes, really), they’re all about balance. With their signature honesty and humor, they remind us that growth isn’t a straight line — and that sometimes, the detours are the most…

In this heartfelt season finale of Wholey Schmidt, Jessica and Grace take a moment to reflect on the deep transformation they’ve experienced since Season 1. What began as a journey into embodiment has evolved into something even more powerful: a true connection with their most authentic selves.

In the final installment of our Stress Kit series, we dive into perhaps the most vital and often overlooked pillar of well-being: community. Join Grace, Jess, and Sarah as they unpack the deep impact our relationships and social circles have on our happiness, resilience, and overall mental health.

In this powerful episode of Wholey Schmidt, we’re joined by my dear friend, Deval Patrick.

As a life coach, she embraces her own “hero’s journey” and empowers others to walk their path with strength.

Today, we’re exploring one of the most powerful pillars of the Stress Kit—breathing. Breath is literally life, and learning to harness it can transform our well-being. Our guest is Megan Krouse, a yoga and breathwork instructor, who dives into how breath connects us to self-awareness, presence, and inner peace. When was the last time you took a deep breath and truly anchored into the present? Breath isn’t just a relaxing practice—it’s essential for regulating our nervous system and managing stress. Megan shares valuable insights and practical tips to help us deepen our relationship with our breath.

One of my favorite moments from last season was sharing my mom, Barbara, with our audience. Having the opportunity to engage in real, thoughtful, and meaningful conversations with our parents is one of the most powerful experiences we can have. Today, we talk about our bond, the importance of friendship in our lives, aging, invisibility, spirituality, death – and so much more. What makes my mom truly special is that she’s never afraid to address the tough topics. I’m incredibly grateful for the open relationship we have, where we can dive deep into our hearts and minds, together. I encourage everyone listening to speak the hard truths, to share the loving words – while you still can. What do you want to say before it’s too late?

Today, Jasmine Nnenna and I sit down to discuss all things spirituality. We dive into our belief systems, exploring our connection with God and the universe, and how that shapes our relationships with the world and the people around us. We reflect on how these beliefs influence us as parents and partners. We also explore the idea that we are spiritual beings, touching on our religious upbringings and our connection to something greater.

Today, we’re diving into the second pillar of Sarah’s Stress Kit—SLEEP! Quality sleep is at the core of a healthy lifestyle and is essential for managing everyday stress. More often than not, when you’re feeling off, lack of sleep could be the culprit. But how can you improve your sleep? It all comes down to intentionality, mindfulness, and routine. Sarah has crafted a detailed sleep routine that helps her rest soundly no matter where she is—and she fiercely protects it. She encourages you to find a routine that works for you so you can prioritize and safeguard your rest. Joining Sarah in this discussion are her team members, Grace and Jessica. Together, they share their insights, recommendations, and personal sleep rituals. With each woman at a different stage of life and relationships, there’s something for everyone in this conversation!

Relationships are one of the most powerful catalysts for personal growth—sometimes, that means outgrowing what once brought you together. In today’s episode, I open up about my second divorce, reframing “failure” as growth and transformation, and trusting that what blesses one blesses all. Today I am joined by Grace Abbott and Jessica Gill, as we break down the meaning behind my divorce on the day it was finalized. I share the lessons I’ve learned about relationships—both with myself and others—while redefining connection and exploring how romantic relationships shape and shift our paths.

We can’t always control the world around us, but we can control how we respond to it. Whether we’re facing a challenge, a trigger, or just the everyday stresses of life, learning to pause before reacting can be one of the most powerful tools for transforming any situation. But in that moment of pause—what do you turn to? I call it my “Stress Kit,” and I’d love to help you build yours. This week, we’re diving into the first pillar of our Stress Kit: Think. Joined by Jessica and Grace from my team, we’ll explore methods and modalities that help us maintain a positive mindset—no matter what life throws our way.

2025 has been a wild ride so far, and we’re in for even more surprises. If we remember that every experience is inherently neutral and regulate our emotional response to it, we can reap the blessings and lessons the universe has for us. In this episode of Wholey Schmidt, we’ll explore the astrological landscape of culture and society right now, taking the energetic temperature so we can be prepared for what’s to come. You’ll also learn a little bit about Sarah’s chart too! Asya Rose is an astrologer on a mission to empower you to make informed decisions, overcome obstacles, and live your life to the fullest by tapping into the wisdom of the stars.

I’m so excited to welcome you back for Season 2! A lot has changed since I launched Episode 1 of this podcast early last year – I’ve transformed into someone I feel really proud of, and at 52, I’ve never felt better. Last season, I shared some of my Wholey Schmidt moments from the past – and this season, I’m sharing who I am today. I am embracing the magic and expansion that come with getting older. I’m here to prove that life doesn’t decline with age – it only gets better. On Wholey Schmidt, we’ll dive into my curiosities around wellness and longevity, and I’ll share vulnerable, real conversations with people I love and admire. Let’s celebrate growth, transformation, and the beauty of this stage of life together.

We can’t believe we’re at the close of Season 1! Wholey Schmidt… what an amazing journey it’s been – from conception to launch and now here. It’s incredible to look back and reflect on what we thought this podcast was and could be, and compare it to the reality of what unfolded and the responses we received. And that’s a lesson for all areas of life… have an intention, go for it, but don’t be too married to the outcome… we promise something better than you could ever imagine is probably unfolding. Team members Jessica Gill and Grace Abbott join Sarah to reflect on this journey, from the standpoint of creation and marketing to the personal transformation they experienced as well. They talk about what it means to find your voice, your presence, your confidence – and letting go of any limitations that are keeping you from experiencing the fullness of what the universe wants to give you. And don’t worry, we’ll be back for another season! We are just getting started.

When Sarah first recorded this episode, late last year, she thought she had really found her purpose. But looking back now, she realizes the best is yet to come. Sarah shares how she found her way back to herself—throughout this podcast and through the many changes she’s experienced in the last few months. She shares how she’s made magic out of the hard moments and encourages you to go inward and see how you can do the same. It’s never too late to find your purpose—to find yourself. You can always start anew, no matter what age or life stage you are in. As Season 1 comes to a close, we ask you to reflect on your life—what is asking for your attention, and what is ready for transformation? Sarah is on this journey with you, and together we can find a deeper sense of presence and meaning.

We’re joined again by Sarah’s mom, Barbara– and today the two reflect on the passing of Sarah’s dad and what it’s like to reclaim identity again after losing a loved one. The two discuss how to cope with losing a loved one, and how the relationship with him has continued to bloom, even in his passing. Barbara shares her sense of spirituality and her perspective on death, now that she’s in her 80s. We encourage you to connect with your loved ones for a meaningful conversation after listening to this episode. We get so caught up in the achievement of everyday, we forget what pearls of wisdom might be sitting right in front of us – in the hearts of a parent or grandparent.

This week, Sarah opens up about her father's life, death, and their evolving relationship since his passing seven years ago. Raised in a small town within a devout Catholic family, her father wrestled with feelings of inadequacy despite outward successes and a wide circle of friends, keeping his deepest emotions hidden. Sarah found a deep connection with him in her 30s through collaborative projects, transitioning their relationship from parent-child to a more equal footing. While she admired his talents, she also witnessed his harsh self-criticism, which was difficult to reconcile with his outward achievements. In the months before his passing, Sarah observed her father weighed down by feelings of shame rooted in his upbringing and environment. This episode of Wholey Schmidt is a poignant exploration of familial bonds, vulnerability, and the healing power of shared experiences, inviting listeners to reflect on their own relationships and the complexities that shape them.

Sarah has been a mother in so many capacities – but wasn’t a biological mom until the age of 44! Living in a culture that puts a timebox on women’s fertility window, this is deeply expansive episode shares the story of someone who conceived later in life against the odds. Though Sarah did not expect to bring another child into the world, she shares what it feels like to fall in love and open her heart to expanding her family once again. We cover IVF, fertility treatments, family expansion, partnership, embodiment, and regulating your emotions during your pregnancy journey.

We’re back with another Wholey Schmidt moment with Actress, Speaker, Survivor, Mindset Coach, Writer, and Happy Camp founder, Katie Wee. Sarah and Katie dive into a series of powerful Wholey Schmidt moments in Katie’s life that took her from feeling hopeless and alone to completely empowered and embraced by life and love. Katie shares her sexual abuse story, how she decided to come out about it, and the steps she took to put the offender in prison. Katie’s healing journey led her to deep spiritual and psychological work where she began to transform her inner state from feeling anxious, depressed and helpless to joyful, empowered and at peace. By creating space and time for healing and self-exploration, she began to change herself on the deepest level. By learning how to consciously optimize her mindset, she began to finally feel the happiness and inner freedom she had been seeking for most of her life. She learned how to utilize the art of conscious creation to create a life that is deeply fulfilling to her-…

What does freedom mean? Today we’re diving in with renowned coach and thought leader, Peter Crone.

In true Wholey Schmidt fashion, Peter cracks open a door to his inner world and lets us peek inside. He shares how he found his own path to freedom, and how we might find ours. Are you really controlling? Or do you just lack trust? That is the first thing Peter asked me – and these are the kind of reframes Peter provides to completely unlock the mind.

Body image is a common struggle for most people, especially women. And although it’s been a challenging journey for me, I feel like I’m finally starting to love and accept myself. Being a cancer survivor and dealing with such significant physical trauma made it really hard for me to feel safe and comfortable in my own skin. But over the last few years, I’ve focused on the mind-body connection, and for the first time, I feel truly embodied and present in my life. This has allowed me to start feeling my feelings, show up better for people, and find more joy and pleasure every day. So many of us think that when we finally reach a certain weight or change something about our physical selves, we’ll finally be happy, but happiness is an inside job. In today’s episode, I share how I’ve shifted out of self-judgment and into self-love. Taking care of yourself and your health is a privilege, not a punishment. You deserve it because you are worthy of love, not because you need to change. If you or someone you know…

Adoption is a path that many take to create their family, but where does one begin the process? In this episode, I’m joined by my dear friends Robert and Brian, whom I connected with when I adopted my first child 18 years ago. We bonded over our first adoptions and have supported each other as we navigated the complex landscape of parenting together. We discuss how we decided to adopt, what the process was like, the emotions of meeting our children for the first time, growing as parents, navigating birth-parent dynamics, and much more. If you or someone you know is considering adoption or going through this process, this episode is a must-listen.

In this episode, I delve into the multifaceted journey of motherhood and what it means to me. With five incredible children who have entered my life in unique ways, I've had the privilege of experiencing motherhood from various perspectives. From becoming a legal guardian to navigating the complexities of adoption, to embracing the role of a stepmother, and finally, giving birth to my biological child at 44, each experience has enriched my understanding of what it means to mother and be mothered. Join me as I invite you to reflect on the different mothering roles in your life and the boundless possibilities within the realm of motherhood.

I don’t like to label myself and wasn't someone who thought much about my sexual orientation– throughout my life, I have just loved who I loved. But when I fell in love with a woman, and it was clear that she was my life partner– I, like all gay people, was faced with the challenge of coming out and sharing that news with my family. To set the stage, it was 1996 in the Midwest, and if you’ve listened to previous episodes, you know that my mom was a former nun. Gay marriage wasn’t legal yet, and to put things into perspective, Ellen hadn’t even come out publicly yet! Today I sit down with my mom, Barbara (again! Welcome back, Mom!), and we talk about how she felt when I came out. The way she responded and treated me and my wife was beyond any response I could have imagined. Today we discuss how to embrace and support your loved ones, even if they make different choices than you would. Coming out looks different for everyone. It can be really hard, scary, and confronting for you and the person you’re sharing…

I didn't expect to fall in love when I did… and my path to getting there was in no way conventional. In this episode, I share the journey of my first marriage– from falling in love with Julie unexpectedly to navigating my new sense of identity… all the way to divorce. I’m not someone who identifies with labels – I’ve always just loved who I loved and have been fortunate to have the support of my family along the way. I know this isn't the case for everyone… There is no right or wrong way to be in a relationship with someone – and we continue to bust through societal norms about how relationships should work – the traditional path looking like courtship, engagement, marriage, and staying with that one partner until we die. As it turns out, this cookie-cutter view of relationships isn't very realistic for most people, and it certainly wasn’t realistic for me. Today we’re going to explore the nuance and grey space within relationships, beyond the bounds of tradition. I hope you enjoy this episode!

The "perfect moment" doesn't exist... stop waiting for it and face your fears. This week, we have a very special round table episode with Sarah and two team members, Jessica Gill & Grace Abbott. They had a front-row seat to recording last week’s episode and listened live as Sarah & her mom had a meaningful and vulnerable conversation… If you haven’t listened to that one yet, listen first! Jessica and Grace reflect on the recording and share some of their experience of having hard conversations with family members and some insight around how to have healthy communication and getting rid of the notion that there is a “perfect” moment to do anything. Sarah shares how she felt pre/post-recording with her mom, and what it brought up in her – including encouraging a friend to have a bold conversation with her father, which she thought she’d never have! If there is someone you need to have a vulnerable conversation with, we encourage you to drop your projection and assumption of what the outcome will be and boldly…

“Regardless of what comes of this podcast, it will all be worth it just for this episode.” – Sarah We're thrilled to share this week's episode with you.

Didn’t have perfect parents? Join the club. Listen to this week’s episode to find more empathy, forgiveness, and love for your parents. Can we give them the benefit of the doubt– maybe they were doing the best they could… Nobody will ever be, or has ever been, a perfect parent. In pursuit of understanding our hurts, traumas, and wounds, we tend to blame our parents without considering why they couldn’t show up the way we needed them to. In this episode, you are going to hear a bit about my mom’s story and the challenges she faced. Taking care of her many siblings, joining the convent at 14, leaving at 25 and starting her own life for the first time, and processing a miscarriage. As you might recall from the last episode, my mom’s inability to support me during my cancer experience was one of the most painful times of my life. Yet, in learning more about her life experience it has allowed me a deeper understanding of why she may have shown up in the way she did. And now years later, I have developed a close,…

Do you have the courage, strength, and humility to ask for help when you need it? Throughout this season, we will discuss many challenging topics such as death, divorce, and illness. Reflecting on my own difficult moments, I often felt unable to ask for help when I needed support the most, which left me feeling lonely, isolated, and yearning for understanding and assistance from others. My greatest hope for this podcast, especially this episode, is that you find the courage to ask for help during your hardest times and offer support to those around you who are experiencing their own struggles. Ignoring uncomfortable emotions that call for attention is one of the most unloving things we can do to ourselves. The more we neglect these feelings, the louder their cries for help become. This can manifest as reactivity, depression, resentment, or, in my experience, physical health issues—I faced cancer at just 20 years old. Hear about my cancer experience, and the lessons I gleaned – in today’s episodes. If you are…

Did you have to parent your parents? When I reflect on my own childhood, perfectionism and early parentification appear to be central themes that have shaped my identity. While these traits have undoubtedly brought about many positive things in my life– and a deep sense of independence… they have also initiated a lifelong sense of pressure, which I’m just starting to soften out of. So, what exactly are perfectionism and parentification? On this week's episode, we dive into these themes along with a piece of my story that illustrates how they played out in my life.

When you look back on your life, there are some moments that will make you stop and say… Wholey. Schmidt. Over my half-a-centrury on this planet, I’ve learned a thing or two about finding the silver lining in some of life’s most challenging experiences…and if we can’t reflect back and make meaning out of the hard things… what was it all for anyways? As a psychologist– I always learned that telling your own story is a major no-no. But I’ve found so much healing in my vulnerability, that I hope in sharing my story, you feel less alone in yours. Hi, I’m Sarah Schmidt… and welcome to Wholey Schmidt Podcast. Together we will find resilience in whatever life throws our way.
