Episode Synopsis

Send us a text(Episode 1 of the “Impact Over Intention” Series)In this first episode of the Impact Over Intention series, we explore the powerful difference between intention and impact and how the moments that stay with us are often shaped not by what was meant, but by what was felt. Through the lens of parenting and childhood experiences, we unpack how well-intended words and actions can unintentionally shape limiting beliefs that follow us into adulthood.I invite you to reflect back to a time when you were a child full of curiosity, joy, and excitement about who you wanted to become. For many of us, that spark was dimmed not out of harm, but out of protection. Parents, guided by their own fears and limiting beliefs, often tried to keep us safe. Yet the impact of those moments went far beyond the intention, quietly teaching us to doubt ourselves, to stop dreaming, or to shrink our possibilities.We talk about why impact is what’s remembered, how these early experiences form the foundation of our identity, and how limiting beliefs are often passed down without awareness. This episode is not about blame, it’s about understanding, healing, and breaking patterns so we can choose differently for ourselves and for the next generation.As the opening conversation in this series, this episode sets the foundation for exploring how impact over intention shows up in our relationships, leadership, and everyday communication. If you’ve ever wondered where certain beliefs about yourself came from or why parts of your identity feel rooted in fear rather than possibility—this conversation offers clarity, compassion, and an invitation to rewrite the stories that no longer serve you. www.tkstrickland.com Email: [email protected] Instagram: @iamtkstrickland http://www.linkedin.com/in/tkstrickland
