  • 198 | Nine Lessons & One Hell of a Tower Year
    Nov 5 2026

    What happens when the life you've spent years building starts asking you to change?


    As I turn 45 years young, I am reflecting on what can only be described as one hell of a tower year. From unexpected business challenges and personal healing to releasing old identities and making space for a much bigger vision, this chapter has taught me more than I could have anticipated.


    In this episode, I share nine lessons that have shaped this season of my life, including why sometimes we need to let what we've built fall apart, why our bodies often know more than our minds, and how a power pause can create space for our biggest moves yet.


    I also explore the connection between numerology, completion and new beginnings, and what it means to evolve beyond the versions of ourselves we've outgrown.


    You can handle a lot. But what's it costing you?

    Discover what nervous system capacity actually means, why strategy alone isn't enough, and how to expand your ability to lead and experience success without continually pushing beyond your limits.

  • 197| The Truth You Keep Avoiding Is Trying to Bring You Home with Michelle Hillier
    Oct 29 2026

    What if the changes you’ve been avoiding are the very things that bring you back to yourself?


    In this episode of Dropped IN, I’m joined by Michelle Hillier, founder of Awaken Your Flame, to explore what it means to listen to your truth, even when it asks you to make uncomfortable changes.


    Michelle shares her journey to sobriety, the life experiences that forced her to stop overriding herself, and how reconnecting with her body changed the way she lives and works. We talk about the stories we tell ourselves, the masks we wear to keep others happy, and the freedom that comes when we stop performing and start listening.


    Because sometimes, the work isn’t about becoming someone new. It’s about returning to who you’ve always been.


    Inside this episode:


    • Why truth takes practice and how to recognize the whispers you’ve been ignoring
    • Michelle’s journey to sobriety and the power of connection and community
    • How we learn to override our bodies and disconnect from our intuition
    • Moving beyond the inner critic and learning to trust your own way
    • Letting go of performance and showing up as your authentic self
    • Why you can always return to yourself, no matter how far you’ve wandered

  • 196| Always at Capacity? What High Achievers Get Wrong About Burnout
    Oct 22 2026

    In this episode of Dropped In, Meghan Weir, business and nervous system strategist and executive leadership coach, explores the hidden relationship between high achievement, leadership burnout, and nervous system capacity.


    We're getting into THE INVISIBLES.


    The emotional weight that never makes it onto your calendar.


    The grief you're carrying. The relationship strain. The financial pressure. The expectations quietly consuming your capacity before your workday even begins.


    And why becoming increasingly capable of handling stress doesn't necessarily mean you're expanding your capacity to experience the life you've worked so hard to create.


    Meghan also introduces The Capacity Advantage™ and her proprietary Five Rs framework:

    READ → RELEASE → REWIRE → RANGE → RESONANCE

    A different approach to nervous system rewiring, subconscious patterns, and the way you experience the demands of leadership.

    Because there's a difference between building the capacity to carry more and expanding your nervous system capacity to actually experience more of yourself within it all.


    IF YOU'RE THE PERSON EVERYONE COUNTS ON, THIS CONVERSATION IS FOR YOU.

  • 194 | The Hidden Cost of High Performance: Stress, Burnout & Leadership
    Oct 8 2026
    In this episode of Dropped In, Meghan Weir shares a powerful conversation from a recent Capacity Advantage executive leadership retreat, where one leader's comment about needing to turn on their "superpowers" opened a deeper discussion about the difference between authentic leadership and armouring up.Because looking composed on the outside doesn't always mean your nervous system feels safe on the inside.Meghan explores how chronic stress, protective patterns, and high-performance conditioning can shape our leadership identity, and why expanding nervous system capacity goes far beyond learning how to regulate.Inside this episode:The difference between armouring up and accessing your actual leadership superpowers.Why high-functioning doesn't always mean you're thriving.How nervous system activation influences leadership, decision-making, and emotional responses.The hidden cost of building your identity around being the person who can handle everything.Why your capacity for pressure may be different from your capacity for success, visibility, and wealth.How The Capacity Advantage moves beyond nervous system regulation to expand your ability to respond with greater flexibility.Why developing capacity might mean learning how to carry less.The question at the heart of this episode:When you say you have enormous capacity, are you describing what you can consciously hold, or what you've learned to silently endure?If you're a founder, entrepreneur, executive, or high-achieving leader who has mastered the art of holding everything together, this conversation will challenge what you believe about resilience and sustainable success.Because the next evolution of your leadership may require you to put down the very armour that got you here.You can handle a lot.

  • 193 | Become the CEO of Your Health with Margaret Wallis-Duffy
    Oct 1 2026

    What happens when you stop ignoring the whispers from your body and start listening?


    In this powerful conversation, Meghan sits down with Margaret Wallis-Duffy, founder of Wallace for Wellness, and the visionary behind Preventative Health Awareness Month.


    Margaret shares her deeply personal journey with endometriosis, being dismissed and gaslit for years, and ultimately learning to trust her own body and advocate for herself. That experience became the foundation for a much bigger mission: helping people become the CEO of their own health.


    Together, Meghan and Margaret talk about why prevention matters, the “opportunity gap” between being healthy and reaching a diagnosis, the importance of curiosity, self-advocacy, nervous system regulation, community, and why we need to stop waiting until our bodies completely break down before we pay attention.


    Margaret also shares her vision for the future of preventative healthcare, the Preventative Health Awareness Movement, her upcoming health hub, and why collaboration over competition is at the heart of everything she does.

  • 192 | How to Know When It’s Time to Let Something Go
    Sep 24 2026

    What if your capacity isn't measured by how much you can continue to tolerate?


    In this episode of Dropped In, Meghan shares a very real-life lesson in nervous system capacity after the backend platform supporting her business began falling apart. What initially looked like a technology problem became a much bigger realization about stress, decision-making, energy, and the hidden cost of constantly compensating for something that isn't working.


    She explores why capacity isn't about becoming someone who never gets stressed or overwhelmed. It's about maintaining access to yourself when stress happens, having enough flexibility to recognize what's happening, make decisions, ask for support, change direction, and recover.


    Sometimes capacity means holding more.

    And sometimes it means finally saying, "Nope. This isn't working anymore."


    Inside this episode:
    • The difference between regulation and capacity
    • Why chronic problems can become invisible energy leaks
    • How your environment can contribute to hesitation and stuckness
    • Why not every block is a limiting belief
    • What stress can reveal about your capacity
    • Why capacity isn't the same as endurance
    • Building capacity before you know exactly what you'll need it for
    • How success, growth, money, visibility, and leadership create new demands
    • Recognizing when you're compensating for something that isn't working
    • Why greater capacity also requires greater discernment
    • The question to ask: What could become available if I stopped using my capacity to compensate for this?

    

    You don't need to build a bigger life by becoming better at overriding yourself.

    The goal is to have greater capacity to actually experience the life you're building.

Your story already contains evidence of what you've overcome.And maybe you're not as far from clarity as you think.Sometimes you just need to look back and notice how far you've already come.Alex Street believes your story is your superpower.
