Clear the Mental Clutter + Start Feeling Like YOU Again | Mimi Bouchard (EP471)

39m | Oct 27, 2026

Most of us could probably tell you the kind of person we want to be. We want to be more present, more intentional, less reactive. We want to stop overthinking so much and actually take action on the things that matter to us.

But I think there can be a pretty big gap between who we say we want to be and how we’re actually showing up in our everyday lives. And that’s really what today’s conversation is about: how do we begin to close that gap?

My guest today is Mimi Bouchard. Mimi is an entrepreneur, motivational speaker, author of Activate Your Future Self, and creator of the Activations app.

But this conversation goes beyond the app. Mimi and I talk about what it actually looks like to become the person you keep saying you want to be. We get into overthinking, getting clear about what you want, the things we repeatedly feed our minds, and why real change is usually much less dramatic than we make it out to be. It happens through the small choices we make again and again.
