Author: Lori Harder | YAP Media May 28, 2026 Duration: 21:07
Have you ever felt like life is asking more from you than you’re capable of handling right now? In this episode, I talk about what it looks like to show up when you feel empty, why the hardest seasons are actually shaping your next level, how to navigate the loneliness of the "messy middle," and why you don’t need to feel confident to move forward. I also share ways to protect your mindset when your brain tries to hijack you, how to ask for help, and why taking one imperfect step at a time is the ultimate catalyst for momentum.

Hosted by entrepreneur and author Lori Harder, Earn Your Happy is a raw and relatable look at what it actually takes to build a meaningful life and business. This podcast lives in the messy middle ground between a bold vision and its realization, exploring the risks, the failures, and all those moments of doubt that nobody talks about on a polished highlight reel. Lori’s conversations are grounded in real experience-her own journey as a founder and host-and they cut through the noise of typical business advice. You’ll hear honest stories about the rollercoaster of chasing big goals, where laughter and vulnerability are just as important as strategy. It’s this authentic, no-BS approach that has resonated with so many, earning the show recognition as a top entrepreneurship podcast. Each episode feels like a candid talk with a friend who’s been there, offering not just inspiration but practical perspectives for navigating your own path. Tune in for a dose of reality that’s as motivating as it is genuine, proving that building something you love is never a straight line.
