The Sharon Francisco Show
I’ve been thinking about starting a podcast for years. To share the good, the bad, and the ugly that I’ve experienced in business. I feel like it's time to share some of the lessons, and I hope that it will resonate with you, and that you actually take action so that you and your business keeps growing.
I’m Sharon Francisco, a business coach for bookkeepers, but what I talk about here on the podcast will help all sorts of businesses and business owners. I hope you enjoy it!

When You’re Stuck — How to Stop Ghosting Yourself
We all hit seasons where things feel heavy — the business feels hard, energy is low, decisions stall, and everything starts to blur. Most people respond by blaming themselves or going into avoidance. But you’re not broken — you’re just at a point where something needs to shift. In this episode, we explore how to move from self-judgement to curiosity, so you can find your next step instead of staying stuck.
In this episode we cover:
- The mindset shift: from “What’s wrong with me?” to “What’s my plan?”
- Why no one is the first person to face what they’re facing — and how to use that as your way out.
- Six areas where “stuckness” commonly shows up — business, health, relationships, finances, growth, and lifestyle.
- How self-avoidance shows up (ghosting your own goals) — and how to interrupt it.
- Why curiosity leads to momentum, while shame leads to paralysis.
- Small, doable shifts that create forward movement again.
Key insights:
- You’re not the problem — the system you’re operating in is.
- Stuck doesn’t mean stop — it means there’s a lesson or a new skill required.
- Once you stop taking your stuckness personally, solutions appear.
Mentioned in this episode:
- “Energy audits” and why they matter more than to-do lists
- Reverse-engineering people who are living the life you want
- The 10-minute Truth Talk for relationships
- Money dates + emotional spending awareness
- Curiosity as a strategy, not a mood
