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.

In this episode, Dr. Phyllis shares her personal story and draws a powerful connection to the story of the prodigal son. It’s an honest look at what it feels like to drift, to lose sight of who you really are, and what it takes to come back. She opens up about the moment she knew something had to change. The moment she realized that if she wanted to reclaim her identity, she had to return to Him. That decision didn’t just shift one area of her life. It changed how she navigates everything. If you’ve ever felt disconnected, stuck in roles, or just going through the motions, this conversation will hit close to home. So many of us are prone to living on auto pilot, slowly losing connection with our true identity without even realizing it. This episode is your reminder that you’re not too far gone. There is power in the return. Dr. Phyllis also introduces The Return Framework, a simple and meaningful way to begin breaking free from auto pilot and take your first steps back to who you really are.","meta_description":"What happens when you realize you’ve been living on auto pilot?
