Why do I feel stuck in my life?

If you’ve been asking that question lately, this episode is for you.

Feeling stuck in life is not a personality flaw. It’s a signal. In this episode, Dr. Kelsey Miles breaks down why you feel stuck, why “believe in yourself” advice doesn’t land when you’re overwhelmed, and how to stop spiraling into self-judgment.

You’ll learn:

• The real reason you feel stuck after hitting a big goal
• Why toxic positivity makes things worse
• How to stop catastrophizing
• The difference between motion and momentum
• A simple framework to build self-trust
• One small experiment you can run this week to create clarity

If you’re feeling lost after graduation, stuck in your career, overwhelmed by options, or unsure of your purpose, this episode will help you get unstuck without blowing up your life.

This is not about quitting your job or moving across the world. It’s about calibration, clarity, and taking one small step forward.

Self-trust is built one experiment at a time.

If life feels uncertain lately and you’ve been second-guessing yourself, this episode is for you.

When overachieving, people pleasing, and “I can handle this” coping strategies stop working, most of us panic. We fight, flee, fawn, or freeze and then assume something is wrong with us.

There isn’t.

In this season opener of Authenticity Lab, Dr. Kelsey Miles (PhD chemist and songwriter) introduces a science-based approach to building self-trust and emotional resilience in times of change. Using the CEO Method — Calibrate, Experiment, Optimize — you’ll learn how to expand your capacity, regulate your nervous system, and trust yourself again.

This podcast is not about fixing you.
It’s about building inner authority in a world that constantly tells you who you should be.

What if your inner critic isn’t the enemy?

In this episode of Authenticity Lab, Dr. Kelsey Miles explores five distinct voices of the inner critic: the Perfectionist, the Catastrophizer, the People-Pleaser, the Comparer, and the Taskmaster. You’ll learn what each one is trying to protect, the hidden skill it carries, and how recognizing those skills can help you stop fighting yourself and start thriving.

Instead of trying to silence your inner critic, you’ll discover how to listen to it like a scientist: observe, collect data, and identify the need underneath the noise. This simple calibration step turns shame into information and helps you reclaim the driver’s seat in your own mind.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

Why silencing your inner critic doesn’t work and what to do instead

The five main critic voices, their core needs, and their hidden strengths

How to name, note, and claim your critic’s skill so it serves you, not rules you

A short calibration exercise you can use anytime self-doubt gets loud

🎧 Tune in to Authenticity Lab to uncover the science and self-awareness behind your self-talk, and get ready for next week’s episode on boundaries and how to give your inner critic a clear, supportive role.
