"Everything is Figureoutable."

05/12/25 • 10 min

In this episode of WORDS MATTER, Deanna Ley, The Catalytic Coach, offers truth, encouragement, and a bold permission slip—all wrapped in a powerful mindset: “Everything is figureoutable.” Inspired by Marie Forleo’s words and grounded in Deanna’s lived experience, this episode is a reset button for anyone who feels overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure of what to do next.

This isn’t about overnight solutions or perfect plans—it’s about believing that a way forward exists and choosing to take the next small step. Deanna shares practical mindset shifts to help you move from frozen to forward, from spiraling to in motion, and reminds you that momentum starts with belief.

What Listeners Will Learn:
• Why the belief that everything is figureoutable changes everything
• How to shift from helpless to hopeful
• The power of turning problems into questions
• Why “I don’t know” stalls growth—and what to say instead
• How to build momentum, one aligned step at a time

Memorable Quotes:
• “Everything is figureoutable.” — Marie Forleo
• “Hope isn’t fluffy—it’s fuel.”
• “You don’t have to have it all figured out. You just have to stay open and willing.”
• “Stuck is just a place you’ve paused—not where you have to live.”
• “Not from chaos to calm overnight, but from frozen to forward.”
• “You are becoming. You are building. You are learning to trust your own wisdom again.”

This episode is your reminder that you’ve figured things out before—and you will again. Whatever feels too heavy or uncertain right now, it’s not too much for you. You’re not stuck. You’re just getting started.

Your WORDS MATTER, because YOU MATTER.

"Purposeful Progress Equals Peace."

In this episode of WORDS MATTER, Deanna Ley, The Catalytic Coach, invites you into a conversation that may just change the way you define peace. This isn’t the kind of peace you wait to find once life calms down—it’s the kind you create, step by step, through aligned, intentional action.

With her quote, “Purposeful progress equals peace,” Deanna shares a raw and grounded message for anyone who's ever felt stuck in stress, spinning in the noise, or wondering if peace is even possible. She introduces a practical tool called the Peace Gauge to help you discern what supports your peace—mind, body, and soul—and guides you through how to start building a life that feels like home, even in the midst of the mess.

What Listeners Will Learn:
• Why perfection isn’t the path to peace—purpose is
• How to use your own Peace Gauge to make aligned choices
• The difference between reactive action and purposeful movement
• Why peace, gratitude, and joy are interconnected
• Three small shifts that build momentum toward peace

Memorable Quotes:
• “Purposeful progress equals peace.” - Deanna Ley
• “Peace must outweigh pressure.”
• “Peace isn’t something you wait to feel. It’s something you create. One aligned, intentional step at a time.”
• “You can’t change what you don’t name.”
• “Peace doesn’t mean the world around you calms down. It means you know how to stay steady when it doesn’t.”
• “You are worthy of a life that feels like home in your mind, your body, and your soul.”

This episode is your reminder that peace isn’t a far-off destination—it’s a practice. One intentional step at a time.

"You Cannot Use Someone Else's Map To Find Yourself."

In this episode of WORDS MATTER, Deanna Ley, The Catalytic Coach, invites you to break free from the belief that someone else’s path will lead you home. With the powerful quote “You cannot use someone else’s map to find yourself,” Deanna explores the cost of following systems, plans, and rules that were never designed for you in the first place.

Whether it’s a diet plan, a business model, or a way of living that worked for someone else, the truth is clear: their map isn’t your map. Using real-life stories, honest reflections, and a bit of brain science, Deanna reminds us that clarity, peace, and progress are only possible when we stop outsourcing our direction and start honoring our own internal compass.

What Listeners Will Learn:
• Why following someone else’s plan can leave you feeling broken
• How incongruence—not willpower—is often the root of “failure”
• The role of neuroplasticity in building new patterns
• Why honoring your wiring matters more than mimicking someone else’s
• How to pause, reflect, and choose the path that actually fits you

Memorable Quotes:
• “You cannot use someone else’s map to find yourself.”
• “Their map isn’t your map. Their steps weren’t built for your terrain.”
• “It was a misalignment problem. An incongruency problem.”
• “You stop being an extra in someone else’s story and start being the hero of your own.”
• “Their destination isn’t your destiny.”
• “The most powerful path you’ll ever walk? It’s the one that leads you back to yourself.”

This episode challenges you to put down the map that was never yours and start creating your own. Because the direction that leads you home isn’t out there — it’s within.

Your WORDS MATTER, because YOU MATTER.
