Driving to Freedom
with MJ Winn
Today I got to bring MJ onto the podcast, an author who has a gift for uncovering valuable lessons in seemingly ordinary but sometime extraordinary life events. Her upcoming book Dirt Roads highlights her many adventures. On this show she shares a great flat tire on a dirt road story. You will love hearing how she learns from her misfortunes and transforms them into ways to connect to God, and her true self.
As one of my clients MJ’s coaching calls always went deep, I love her ability to think beyond what you see, and wanted to share her with you. If you are one of those people who needs to stop doing the same old thing that is not rendering the results you want, you will gain a lot from this episode. We talk about the blessings in disguise and the shift from solely focusing on your family’s needs to learning who you are independently and the importance of showing up for yourself. It’s an empowering story to set you on the right ‘Dirt Road’ for your life.

In this episode, I talk about the role of reflection in the accountability code, sharing a personal story from my book, Doubt Yourself No More. I reflect on trying out for cheerleading in high school, initially to prove a point, but later realizing how reflection evolves when you take action. I explain that reflection is about thinking through your goals, values, and challenges, and as you act on them, your reflection changes, helping you grow and build confidence. This process helps you become more accountable and stay focused on your goals.

In this episode, I share how to set a clear eight-week goal using the Accountability Code, a framework designed to help you take action. Many people struggle with defining their focus, so I walk through six key steps: reflection (identifying your goal), humility (recognizing what’s holding you back), planning (creating a roadmap), implementing (taking action), commitment (declaring your goal), and feedback (evaluating progress). The Accountability Accelerator provides structure and support to help participants stay on track, but even if you're not in the program, you can still apply these steps to make real progress.

In this episode, I talked about accountability and why traditional plans don’t always work. I shared personal experiences, like writing my book and learning to adjust plans to fit my own needs. I also highlighted stories from my clients, like Kim, who successfully hosted events by adapting the accountability code, and Susan, who realized she needed to trust herself more to improve her business. The key takeaway is that being accountable isn’t about following a rigid plan, it’s about adjusting and taking action in a way that works for you.
