Below the Circle with Dr. Phyllis is the podcast for women ready to stop circling and start landing. You've been flying for years. Maybe decades. Hands gripped on the controls. Autopilot engaged. Circling the same patterns, the same way of doing life — over and over again. You're the high-achieving professional who never drops a ball. The ministry leader who pours out but never refuels. The mom running on fumes. The strong friend who holds everything together so seamlessly that no one thinks to ask if you're okay. You call it resilience. You call it strength. You call it love. But somewhere underneath all of it — underneath the doing and the fixing and the holding — there's a whisper you've been trying to ignore: \"This isn't working anymore.\" Your plate is full. Your soul is empty. You're not broken. You're not weak. You've just been flying so high for so long that you've been flying right over your own life. And everything you've been searching for — your joy, your peace, your identity, your dreams, your purpose — has been below the circle the entire time.

This episode is a reminder that surviving doesn’t have to be the baseline. Thriving can start with small, intentional shifts. We talk about the importance of continuing to learn and staying curious, finding moments of laughter as a way to release pressure, and allowing emotions to move instead of holding everything in. You are more than your current situation, and hard seasons do not erase who you are. Using the image of a triangle with three corners, learn, laugh, and love, this conversation encourages a more balanced way of living. It’s a simple, grounding reminder that we’re all doing our best and that it’s okay to want more than just survival.","meta_description":"Ever feel like life has slipped into autopilot and you’re just getting through the day?
