Do you ever wonder why your to-do list keeps getting longer? And do you ask yourself, “Why didn’t I do what I wanted to do?” Or “What’s stopping me from getting things done?” It might not be mere procrastination. Something deeper might be going on when it happens frequently, or it’s a challenge to make a decision or set a goal.

Psychologists have identified various drivers of procrastination, from low self-confidence to anxiety, a lack of structure, and, simply, an inability to motivate yourself to complete unpleasant tasks. Research has also shown that procrastination is closely linked to rumination or becoming fixated on negative thoughts. My guest takes it even further.

Rozlyn Warren joins us to pull back the curtain to understand what might be at the root of procrastination.

Roz is a four-time best-selling author and intuitive wealth and abundance coach who founded Sacred Life Mastery. She guides business visionaries and thought leaders to achieve sustainable success, breaking beyond perceived limitations without stress and overwhelm. Procrastination is one of the barriers Roz helps others overcome.

It’s no secret that professional women have struggled for decades to meet the challenges of the corporate world. We’ve met barriers—jumped over them, glided around them, and sometimes have been stuck behind them. It got me wondering if this will ever change. I’m happy to say some brilliant women are working on it.

Join me in my conversation with Valerie Sutton, a remarkable leader in workforce development and the Chief of Workforce Navigation and Transformation at Exponential Changemakers. Valerie’s mission is to empower professional women early in their careers, helping them navigate the ever-evolving workplace, break down barriers, and propel their careers forward.

Valerie shares her extraordinary career trajectory, from completely pivoting her profession to becoming a true trailblazer. She’s even taken the bold step of developing a parallel career and eventually becoming an entrepreneur. As a LinkedIn Learning Instructor and a renowned workforce development expert, she has lent her expertise to four prestigious U.S. universities and consulted with numerous others, assisting them in making data-informed decisions to advance their students’ careers.

Valerie faced a persistent challenge throughout her journey: being a woman in a male-dominated professional world. Despite working tirelessly and achieving impressive results, she was dishearteningly informed on three pivotal occasions that her success was attributed to her appearance. The underlying message? She met specific societal standards — she is white, maintains an “acceptable” weight, is in her child-bearing years, dresses appropriately, has no apparent disabilities and identifies as cisgender.

Today, we’ll delve deep into Valerie’s experiences and shed light on professional women’s often-overlooked struggles and triumphs. Discover how Valerie Sutton and Exponential Changemakers work tirelessly to redefine the landscape for professional women and ensure their careers are booming and devoid of discrimination. Join us.

Life transitions can affect our careers in many ways, but few are as challenging as caring for aging parents while managing a responsible corporate position. Many of us may be facing this challenge now or will be soon.

In this episode, I chat with Kim & Mike Barnes, award-winning journalists with more than 30 years of experience in TV. While their two kids are recent college graduates, they are currently caring for parents in their 80s, including Mike’s mother, who has advanced Alzheimer’s, and Kim’s single mother, who faces different challenges.

Drawing on their personal and professional experiences, Kim & Mike recognized a need for advice and resources for adult children in similar situations. So, in 2021, they launched Parenting Aging Parents to provide caregivers with content, connection, and community. Their goal is to ensure that no one feels alone during this challenging time and has the information and resources needed to navigate this stage of life.

This episode explores their journey and discusses adult children’s common challenges when caring for aging parents. In addition, Kim & Mike offer valuable advice and resources for those in a similar situation, such as finding the proper care for your loved ones, balancing work with caregiving responsibilities, and self-care.

For the working moms in our audience or anyone who struggles with work-life balance, I invite you to listen carefully to this conversation with Karen Clark Salinas. Her story will likely strike a chord, and her lessons about work-life balance are powerful.

Like many women, motherhood, marriage, chronic illness, divorce, and blended families are all part of Karen’s story.

Karen is a national board-certified health and wellness coach and the founder of Rebalance Wellbeing. She’s on a mission to help overloaded working moms redefine their work-life balance, so their goals and dreams don’t take a back seat to a crazy busy life. Or worse yet, never see the light of day.

Karen believes that when we empower working moms with these skills, they can raise kids who understand what healthy work-life looks like as adults — making a valuable contribution to a better world. I call that creating harmony.

You might notice a trend in our topics in the early part of this season because cultivating leadership qualities and skills are fundamental to our career and life success. Whether we’re leading a company, division, team, family, or ourselves, developing those hard and soft skills is essential.

So, today we’ll unwind the narrative that leadership is difficult and pull back the curtain to reveal what it takes to be an exceptional leader.

My guest is Michele Thomson, a registered nurse turned leadership development coach and consultant. Michele helps organizations and their leaders prioritize their people, curate a culture of trust and belonging, and improve their customer experience, thus creating a workplace that people never want to leave.

Now, that sounds like an inviting culture that most of my clients would jump to join.

In this episode, we’ll dig into how women can play the corporate game better, leverage our natural abilities and strengths, and use them to our advantage. Plus, we’ll get my guest’s perspective on leadership, and how women have levers they may not pull.

My guest is Rochelle Janssens from Brisbane, Australia. Rochelle works with quietly determined career women ready to move into their first or next leadership role so they can make a bigger difference in the corporate game.

Becoming a leader as a woman is often a different journey than for men, and Rochelle believes it helps to know the current rules of the game, so we can use them to our advantage and eventually be in a position to change the practices to benefit everyone.

Her experience has taught her that leadership is about who you are being, not what you are doing, so she works with her clients to become a leader from the inside out. As a result, rather than being overworked and overwhelmed, her clients shine as their best selves, attracting the right people and opportunities without the crazy hours and elevated stress levels.

As I work with clients and talk with women in my group career roundtables, many are thinking about leaving corporate and becoming an entrepreneur.

Having made that leap, I am keenly aware of some of the pitfalls and time suckers we can experience. And I wish I had my next guest to guide me through them. So, for those considering becoming an entrepreneur, listen up because Laura Valvasori will shed some very important light on this subject.

Laura is a Marketing Foundations Strategist, a Mentor for Entrepreneurs, and the Owner of “Good to Grow Marketing.” Through her experience of leaving corporate behind to pursue self-employment, Laura has learned that you need to change and grow as a person when shifting from employee to becoming an entrepreneur. Laura’s debut best-selling book, Good to Grow, empowers new and seasoned entrepreneurs to cultivate the right mindset and habits to thrive and build a successful business and a life they love.

Do you attach who you are to what you do for a living? When I was laid off from my last corporate gig, I didn’t know who I was for a while because I was no longer a team leader.

Sometimes we need to start over and reinvent ourselves. And many women ask, “who am I now that things have changed?” So, I invited my guest to share her story with you.

Avery Thatcher is CEO and founder of the Inner Stillness Outer Chaos Podcast and the Flow State Membership. When she started her career as a Registered Nurse working in ICU, she noticed that many patients were there because of illnesses and diseases linked to chronic stress.

Starting over, she got out of the reactive side of medicine and started helping highly sensitive high achievers prevent burnout and reverse the adverse health effects of stress. After experiencing a significant health challenge in 2018, Avery had to learn to redefine her identity and grieve the loss of who she used to be.

I thought hearing this story of starting over alongside her tips might help some of you.

What does success look like to you? Are you frantically running like a hamster? Are you living on autopilot to get through the day? Or, maybe you’re wearing the overwork, overwhelm, and burnout as a badge of honor?

Perhaps it’s time we redefine success.

Laura Rubin is a reformed hustle bunny, joy seeker, and lover of life. But, after years of riding the hustle train, she made the courageous decision to take back her life.

Her journey has taken her from living by default to living by design. She now encourages, empowers, and inspires other battle-weary corporate and entrepreneurial hustlers to unwind from the grind of overwork and burnout. She gives them permission to free themselves from society’s definition of success, forget the hustle, and start living in ease, grace, and flow.

I’ll bet you know many people who want to know that secret. And my guest and I will pull back the curtain for you.

Let’s talk about THRIVING!

It means different things to different people, so eavesdrop on our conversation and decide what it means to you.

Kirsten Beske is a former litigation attorney. But, after the near-death experience of each of her two eldest children, she quit her 14-year law practice and pivoted into psychology.

Then, after more than a decade as a psychotherapist, she pivoted again as a Life Redesign Coach for mid-career women ready to make a shift into their NEXT chapter of life and work.

Kirsten and I share a passion for holistic coaching and teaching women to thrive. And she shares the principles of positive psychology to enable women to craft their next chapter by maximizing their passions, strengths, values, and purpose. This allows them to wake up with more energy, passion, and joy each day.

That sounds like thriving to me! And who doesn’t want more of that?

In this episode, we talk about something I hear about from many of my clients, but they may not know how to create it.

It’s Your Personal Brand.

And I’m bringing you an expert on the subject. Along with personal leadership, personal branding can be confusing and a struggle for some.

So I’m delighted to introduce you to Sarah Ehlinger, an award-winning designer, creative director & brand strategist for billion-dollar companies until she became her own boss.

She’s a self-professed “personal growth junkie” and loves exploring the areas where business, branding, and mindset commingle to create magic. Plus, she has her own show called “Brand Spanking You Podcast.”

We talk about what personal branding is, what it isn’t, whether you need it, and, if you do need it, what might be tripping you up to get it right.

Don’t miss this one if showing up as uniquely you is important to you.

This episode is a bit of a departure from our typical conversations about career transition, but we’re going to weave a thread for you to follow and bring you back to it.

So, let me ask you a question: what would you do if you felt left out and left behind—like a misfit?

My guest felt those things so powerfully that she became radically inclusive and found herself always seeking common ground.

Nisha Anand is a boundary-buster, common ground creator, and national leader for social and racial justice. Her TED Talk, The Radical Act of Choosing Common Ground, was viewed over one million times in the run-up to the divisive 2020 election. And this election season is no different.

Nisha is known today as a leader in cultivating unlikely and unconventional partnerships to create change. She now pushes change-makers to dream bigger, design more inclusive movements, and experiment at scale. As Dream Corps’ CEO, Nisha guides a team of storytellers, organizers, and policy experts working at the intersections of criminal justice reform, green economics, and tech equity to create a better future for all.

I want to bring Nisha’s vision to you because we can all use personal and professional encouragement to dream bigger, be more inclusive, and find common ground.

Have you ever created a dream or vision board that’s disappointed you that the dreams you put on it never materialized?

You’re not alone, and we’ll talk about how what you’ve created with great hope and passion might be holding you back from making it happen.

Are you a doer? Or a workaholic? Do you feel guilty when you’re not busy accomplishing something? My guest calls herself an action addict. And we’ll talk about what kind of doer you might be and where the obsession with being in constant action can lead.

Before launching her coaching & consulting practice, Renée spent over 20 years in global senior leadership roles in the high-tech and biotech industries. And she dedicates her career to exploring human nature to understand how we can live with greater purpose, joy, and grace.

As a career and life coach, I often hear women say they want to find meaningful work that aligns with their purpose and brings out their passion.

But then ask, “so how do I find my purpose and passion?”

That’s the million-dollar question! And I love to invite guests on this show to talk about that—because we get great insights and different perspectives, and then we get to decide for ourselves what fits and what doesn’t.

Corbie Mitleid is a writer and visionary who carved her own path.

And the path wasn’t easy. Two marriages, which didn’t last, and a constant search for the Partner Who Understood. A succession of jobs. A series of spiritual paths. Then, out of the blue, breast cancer—not once, but three times.

Corbie’s life became a roller coaster with no brakes. But through it all, she learned to meet challenges head-on, always asking the next question and facing each new situation with strength, courage, and humor.

Today, Corbie brings a complete toolbox to her work because she knows what it is to create a career out of experiences. While she’s now a full-time intuitive counselor and inspirational speaker, she says she’s had a career salad. The ingredients included being a published author, professional actress, television producer, radio personality, and executive recruiter. Corbie is also called the “power behind the throne” for many high-profile CEOs.

Feeling stuck or limited is an all-too-common feeling these days. But, unfortunately, it’s so prevalent among my audience and clients that we’re talking about limits again.

Earlier this season, we talked about moving beyond your upper limits, reaching a ceiling, and being unable to move past it. Today, my guest will share her perspective on feeling limited in your career, what that might look like, and how to move beyond that perceived limitation.

My guest is Christine O’Brien Horstman, a Certified Professional Coach with a niche in career coaching. She is also an Accredited DISC Trainer and a Professional Development Instructor.

Christine’s specialties are emotional intelligence and communication. Her real knack is helping people articulate their worth and what they want.

As a chronic illness warrior, Christine uses her love for writing to cope and believes in the power of putting thoughts and goals on paper. So she wrote a book inspired by the pandemic and the lessons she learned from her health journey. Deal with It, Doll! Coaching Yourself Through Crisis is a timely resource to help you grow through change and deal with life’s many curveballs with resilience, confidence, and hope. And who doesn’t want more of those on the other side of a crisis?

We frequently talk about self-care on this show because busy professional women like us need to hear about it, sometimes more than once, and get different perspectives and approaches.

We’re all different. Our situations are different. And what works for me may not work for you.

But it’s essential to find what works, so we can show up every day at our best for our families and be inspired leaders who create a ripple effect of positive change for our organizations and communities.

Does that sound like a tall order? Maybe not.

That’s why I asked Serena Sabala to join us.

Serena is a Certified Nutrition Consultant, Yoga Teacher, and Fitness Trainer who has studied wellness and nutrition for over a decade and has a unique, holistic approach to health.

She is the author of the highly rated book “Make The Shift - A Proven Method for Busy Professionals to Transform their Health, Wellbeing, and Confidence.”

We must strike a delicate balance between career and caregiving, especially when the need arises unexpectedly. And because we must have open and honest discussions at home and work about the impact of caregiving, I invited Kelli Bradley to join us. She has been there and walks the talk.

Kelli is the founder and creator of The Devoted Daughter, an organization helping women find solutions to care for their aging parents. After landing the role of the family caregiver, Kelli saw a need in her community to help others in the same boat. So, she created and operated an in-home care company serving hundreds of families over eleven years.

Kelli has a unique perspective on caregiving and valuable insights from caring for family members and hiring, training, and managing a professional in-home care company.

She serves her clients through workshops, speaking events, and digital courses; and published “Always Her Daughter”—part memoir and caregiver manual.

Have you ever wondered why some patterns in your life or career seem to repeat themselves? We often see this happening in relationships, where we seem to be attracted to the same kind of people over and over, and we’re not happy in those relationships.

Well, it can happen in your career, too. You might accept job offers from companies that tolerate bad behavior and repeatedly get stuck in the middle of it. You’re not happy and wondering who or what’s to blame.

I often see this repeating pattern in my work with clients, and my next guest will help us understand why it might happen.

Not all of you are at the stage of your career to consider retirement, but I’ll bet you know someone who is. And the kinds of questions that come up for those who are can be very similar to the ones we ask ourselves in a mid-career transition.

For instance, Who Am I—now that things are changing? And Is this all there is?

So, what you’ll hear from our next expert guest can apply no matter what career stage you’re in, but we’ll focus on retirement because it’s one of those career transitions that can throw us for a loop!

Nancy Schwartz is a Transformational Retirement Strategist whose mission is to disrupt how we think about retirement. She helps her clients create a purposeful and healthy life after they choose to leave the work world behind.

Nancy struggled with this transition herself. And when she couldn’t find the support she needed while preparing to leave her long high-powered corporate career, Nancy read everything she could from top global experts in health and retirement.

Her innovative and solution-oriented approach to solving complex issues served her well and led her to develop a 12-week science-based proprietary retirement transformation. Nancy is a health and lifestyle consultant who advocates for personal growth and enrichment.

Let’s get practical and talk about strategies to create the environment for taking a leap of faith and making brave moves in your career—and life. We’ll share a story of (and strategies for) evolving, shifting, being uncomfortable, and overcoming fear, all while starting something new.

My guest, Gina Casbarro, has such a story, which led her to become a certified Life Designer™ coach and feng shui consultant. Because she did it, she now empowers her clients to blaze their own path and design the life and space of their dreams.

Gina’s passion for coaching began as a manager at lululemon. She spent more than eight years coaching hundreds of people to develop as leaders and crush their goals. Her love of nature, symbolism, and intuition led her to feng shui. And she weaves together these passions to support her clients to align their mindset, lifestyle, and environment with their goals and values.

Gina works and lives as a digital nomad, traveling the US and hosting the podcast, “Follow Your Spark,” where she shares inspiring interviews of others who’ve created lives they love.

Tune in for this insightful conversation.

My guest reached out to me wanting to share her story about how she approached making a career change. She hired a coach to help her (and it wasn’t me). Sharing her experience will help those who wonder why and how a career coach could help make a career transition easier.

Tess Zigo spent nearly a decade in corporate finance when something started to feel off. So, she reached out for help and began a process of discovery that led her to find a fulfilling career that brings her joy and in which she can make a difference in people’s lives. She took her corporate finance experience and parlayed it into becoming a certified financial planner—and now she focuses on helping women gain control of their money and create a plan for the future.

It’s another one of those inspiring stories I love to share with you that proves you CAN turn a soul-sucking experience into a career that’s a soulful fit when you explore the possibilities, feel the fear of the unknown, and do it anyway.

Today I want you to meet Megan Smiley because she used to be one of those women who felt stuck in her career. She was a corporate attorney and said her identity and definition of success were tightly bound to her profession.

Do you resonate with that feeling?

So, we’ll dig deeper into her story about how she prepared to become a lawyer, her chosen career paths, and how she ultimately evolved to do what she does now.

As the founder of Megan Smiley Coaching and host of The Lawyer’s Escape Pod, she helps lawyers and other professionals who want to ditch the grind and design a more creative and purposeful career.

Working Parents: I hope you joined us last week for Part One of my conversation with Dr. Amy Beacom. We talked about the issues and opportunities working parents face when navigating parental leave within their careers. If you haven’t, be sure to check it out.

We talked about how states and companies implement parental leave policies—if they even exist—and how companies and working parents put parental leave into practice.

Amy shared the book she co-authored with Sue Campbell, The Parental Leave Playbook: Ten Touchpoints to Transition Smoothly, Strengthen Your Family and Continue Building Your Career, which talks about the 3 phases of the parental leave transition: Preparing for leave, during leave, and returning from leave. And last week, we dove into the preparing phase.

We jump right in and talk about the other two phases in part two.

Amy Beacom is the founder and CEO of the Center for Parental Leave Leadership, the first full-service consultancy in the US to focus exclusively on parental leave. Amy consults with Fortune 100 companies, international organizations, and working parents to transform how our companies and country engage with the parental leave transition.

And Sue Campbell is a writer, author, and coach who has worked with the Center for Parental Leave Leadership since its early days, helping to communicate the transformative impact of its core mission.

ATTENTION WORKING PARENTS! In this episode, you get to hear from two women experts who built a company and wrote the book to help working parents like you. And there’s so much to talk about that we’re breaking the conversation into two episodes. So, eavesdrop on Part One.

Their company is the Center for Parental Leave Leadership, and the book they co-authored is titled The Parental Leave Playbook: Ten Touchpoints to Transition Smoothly, Strengthen Your Family, and Continue Building Your Career.

Dr. Amy Beacom is the founder and CEO of the Center for Parental Leave Leadership, the first full-service consultancy in the US to focus exclusively on parental leave. She conceived of and began developing the field of parental leave coaching and consulting in 2006. Drawing on over 25 years in executive leadership development and coaching, Amy consults with Fortune 100 companies, international organizations, and working parents to transform how our companies and country engage with the parental leave transition.

Sue Campbell is a writer, author, and coach who has worked with the Center for Parental Leave Leadership since its early days, helping to communicate the transformative impact of its core mission.

This episode is a bit of a departure from our typical conversations about career transition, but we’re going to weave a thread for you to follow and bring you back to it.

So, let me ask you a question: what would you do if you felt left out and left behind—like a misfit?

My guest felt those things so powerfully that she became radically inclusive, and found herself always seeking common ground.

Nisha Anand is a boundary-buster, common ground creator, and national leader for social and racial justice. Her TED Talk, The Radical Act of Choosing Common Ground, was viewed over one million times in the run-up to the divisive 2020 election.

Nisha is known today as a leader in cultivating unlikely and unconventional partnerships to create change. She now pushes change-makers to dream bigger, design more inclusive movements, and experiment at scale. As Dream Corps’ CEO, Nisha guides a team of storytellers, organizers, and policy experts working at the intersections of criminal justice reform, green economics, and tech equity to create a better future for all.

I want to bring Nisha’s vision to you because we can all use some personal and professional encouragement on dreaming bigger, being more inclusive, and finding common ground.

I love to bring my audience alternatives—ideas about different ways to approach your career that you might not have thought of or dismissed because of your belief about it.

So in this episode, I’ll introduce you to The Franchise Fitter, Diane Pleuss (sounds like choice), who, since 2004, has matched hundreds of people with their perfect-fit franchise opportunity.

When you think of franchises, the first thing that comes to mind might be fast food—but, as Diane will tell you, the options go far beyond burgers and fries.

After she finds the right fit for you, she successfully guides you to avoid rookie mistakes—and does all this at no cost to her clients. As a result, you’ll create wealth, impact your marketplace and enjoy the systems already in place to accelerate your path to success.

Let’s break through some misconceptions about franchises because it might be an alternative that’s right for you as you explore making a career transition.

In this episode, we talk about something I hear about from many of my clients, but they may not know how to create it.

It’s Your Personal Brand.

And I’m bringing you an expert on the subject. Along with personal leadership, personal branding can be confusing and a struggle for some.

So I’m delighted to introduce you to Sarah Ehlinger, an award-winning designer, creative director & brand strategist for billion-dollar companies until she became her own boss.

She’s a self-professed “personal growth junkie” and loves exploring the areas where business, branding, and mindset commingle to create magic. Plus, she has her own show called “Brand Spanking You Podcast.”

We talk about what personal branding is, what it isn’t, whether you need it, and, if you do need it, what might be tripping you up to get it right.

Don’t miss this one if showing up as uniquely you is important to you.

Giving up a well-paying corporate job with great benefits to stay home and raise your family is a scary proposition—how do you replace that income and security? There are lots of women who are not comfortable making the leap and taking the risk. And that’s totally understandable.

So, if this is you, listen up because my guest today did exactly that.

Whitney Bonds is a former marketing manager who decided to explore the option to work from home when she was pregnant with her second child. After doing a lot of research, she took the leap and now works from home while raising her family. And she built a six-figure business helping other moms find remote jobs for free.

Whitney’s website, TriedAndTrueMomJobs.com is a free service for moms or anyone wanting to work from home, with researched and vetted opportunities, with interviews of real moms sharing what they do, how they got started, and how much they make doing it. It’s an incredible dynamic resource that reaches more than 500 thousand visitors each month.

Whitney and her work to support families has been featured in Parents Magazine, Business Insider, Thrive Global, and Forbes.

What does success look like to you? Are you frantically running like a hamster? Are you living on autopilot to get through the day? Or, maybe you’re wearing the overwork, overwhelm, and burnout as a badge of honor?

Perhaps it’s time we redefine success.

Laura Rubin is a reformed hustle bunny, joy seeker, and lover of life. But, after years of riding the hustle train, she made the courageous decision to take back her life.

Her journey has taken her from living by default to living by design. She now encourages, empowers, and inspires other battle-weary corporate and entrepreneurial hustlers to unwind from the grind of overwork and burnout. She gives them permission to free themselves from society’s definition of success, forget the hustle, and start living in ease, grace, and flow.

I’ll bet you know many people who want to know that secret. And my guest and I will pull back the curtain for you.

Have you ever felt betrayed—whether personally or professionally? Has your trust or confidence been violated? And do you find it hard to trust again?

These may be things you sweep under the rug and just move on. But my next guest likes to challenge you with this question: are you healed or hardened?

In this episode, we’re going to talk about betrayal. Many might think that it would only affect us personally, but my guest is going to share how unhealed betrayal can impact your career or business.

Dr. Debi Silber is the founder of the Post Betrayal Transformation (or PBT) Institute and a holistic psychologist. She’s a health, mindset, and personal development expert, an international best-selling author, and TEDx speaker.

Her recent PhD study on how we experience betrayal made three groundbreaking discoveries that change how long it takes to heal. And we’re going to talk about what she learned from her research, how unresolved betrayal can affect us at work, and so much more.

I’m excited about this podcast because one of the things we talk about happens to be something I’m passionate about — thriving. It means different things to different people, so eavesdrop on our conversation and decide what it means to you.

Meet Kirsten Beske, who is a former litigation attorney. But, after the near-death experience of each of her two eldest children, she quit her 14-year law practice and pivoted into psychology. Then, after more than a decade as a psychotherapist, she pivoted again as a Life Redesign Coach for mid-career women ready to make a shift into their NEXT chapter of life and work.

Kirsten and I share a passion for holistic coaching and teaching women to thrive. And she uses the principles of positive psychology to enable women to craft their next chapter by maximizing their passions, strengths, values, and purpose. This approach allows them to wake up with more energy, power, and joy each day.

Now, that sounds like thriving to me! And who doesn’t want more of that! Listen in and decide for yourself.

What happens when you struggle with career challenges—any challenges for that matter? Does it affect how you think and feel about yourself?

Your mental health can take a hit when things don’t go as planned. You might feel unfulfilled, disconnected, and blame yourself for it. And, when that happens, your sense of well-being can go down the tubes with it.

It can feel like a firestorm.

In this episode, I talk with Stephanie Wray, a mental health counselor and expressive arts therapist, who helps us create more harmony in our lives and careers when it feels like we’re walking through fire.

For the past 26 years, she has used the arts and movement in her own healing and self-care and assisted others in using the arts for better physical, mental and emotional health.

Stephanie does this in clinical, community, and educational settings. And her latest venture brings her training online in a community called The Art Flow Lounge.

I love sharing creative ways to address the mental and physical effects of career and life stressors, and Steph’s golden nuggets of wisdom are keepers.

And how do you get out of that exhausting rut?

This episode discusses what it takes to move beyond this overwhelmed state and step back into your power.

My guest is Duquesa Dean, a Corporate Trainer, Author, Speaker, and Self-Development Mentor.

She is CEO of her own company in the Bahamas that provides corporate training, team building, and small business start-up consultancy. She helps businesses increase workforce engagement, employee productivity, and profits.

In this episode, we’re going to talk about TRUST. My guest says it is the Secret Ingredient to Successfully Achieving Your Goals.

And, I believe trust is fundamental to showing up authentically in our lives—trusting ourselves and trusting others. So, when I met Genevieve, I knew I wanted to share her perspective on trust with you.

Genevieve Joy has traveled from victim to warrior as she overcame multiple debilitating chronic health conditions that experts said were incurable. And, as if that wasn’t enough, she also left a 14-year abusive marriage and completely transformed herself from a suicidal abuse victim into an empowered woman who truly loves herself and her life. And that means she had to learn to trust again.

Now, she’s on a mission to make the world a better place. She gives women the tools they need to overcome any problem, no matter how impossible the odds, so they can heal their inner wounds, take control over their life, and become trusting Warrior Women. Her techniques are powerful yet simple to apply.

In this episode, we talk about a subject many women SAY is important, but they DO very little to practice in a way that makes their life better. Of course, we’re talking about Self-care.

Are you the woman who wears the weight of the world on your shoulders; are you overwhelmed and driven. Do you take pride in the fact that you’re a do-it-all woman?

If you are, you are in excellent company! I TICKED OFF ALL THOSE BOXES when I was a corporate career woman. And so did my next guest, which is why I’ve invited her to join me on today’s episode.

Angela McKay is an HR Executive, wife, and mom who learned the hard way that she needed to prioritize herself amidst all the busyness. As a result, she became committed to taking the cliche out of self-care and now helps others put themselves first. She works with overwhelmed, driven, do-it-all women to help them set aside more meaningful time for themselves.

Her tips are pure gold if you struggle with finding the best way to make self-care impactful for yourself. Don’t miss this one!

When facing a career change, whether you’re out of work, unhappy in your job, or looking for the next right role for you, the first thing you need to do is explore your options.

But that isn’t always a straight road. And, sometimes, it can feel overwhelming. But, on the other hand, it might seem like there are no good options at all.

So today, we’ll talk with Katrine Horn about how to explore your options, why settling isn’t one of them, and what you can do to leverage what you know how to do so you can do what you love to do.

In last week’s episode, we learned about burnout and why it’s so common among workplace conditions that go unmanaged. The chronic stress, exhaustion, and feelings of being disconnected and ineffective at work can be hard to overcome.

This episode shares a personal and vulnerable story about how burnout affected this very dynamic and successful woman. Sandhya Jha is the founder and former executive director of the Oakland Peace Center, a collective of 40 organizations working to create equity, access, and dignity as the means of creating peace in Oakland and the Bay Area. A big job with a critical mission.

She says she found herself “doing work I didn’t enjoy in a place I loved.” Are you experiencing that—doing work you don’t enjoy in a place you love?

Tune in and hear how Sandhya’s burnout was years in the making and how she was too close to see what was happening.

The lessons she learned are gold for the rest of us.

Burnout. We hear this term a lot as it relates to work. In fact, it has been added to the 11th Revision of the International Classification of Diseases. And the term is used to describe an occupational phenomenon. It’s not classified as a medical condition—but it feels like one.

Burnout is defined as a syndrome resulting from chronic workplace stress that hasn’t been successfully managed. When someone suffers from exhaustion or depleted energy, an overall negative outlook feels distanced from their job, and feels less effective at work, they are often diagnosed with burnout.

We talk about burnout with Natasha Dewhirst in this episode. You’ll learn why it’s so common, who’s at more risk, and how to help ourselves or someone else who’s on the verge of burnout.

Too often we “should” on ourselves. You know what I mean. It might sound like, “I should be doing this.” Or, “I should do what they want me to do.” You might do it to help you stay focused, motivated, or—get this—even stuck in some situations, relationships, or career paths that you could leave.

When you learn how to be more compassionate with yourself, you give yourself room to explore what you truly WANT and stop doing what you think you SHOULD.

My guest, Linda Kroll, an IFS therapist, mediator, and author, shares how we can become inspired to make choices in all areas of our lives that ultimately work to our advantage and highest good.

Tune in to learn how to:

  • practice compassionate SELF care
  • let go of what holds you back
  • unburden pain from the past
  • and relate from your heart

So often, we stay stuck too long in one place in a job or career, in relationships, or our business because we don’t understand what’s holding us back. The likely culprit is fear and our tendency to self-sabotage because of that fear.

Tune in to learn how to

  • activate the transformation you want to make,
  • take charge of your mind and emotions, and
  • create a vision for your future that you can bring to life.

Janine’s powerful tips are worth listening to the end.

Do you know someone who constantly says, “I am crazy busy!” Or, “I have way too much to do!” What about this one, “There is never enough time to get it all done!”

Or​​ you might feel like you’re on that proverbial hamster wheel, and jumping off might hurt! Are you running as fast as you can but getting nowhere?

Some of my clients ask, “Is this all there is? I’ve worked hard to get everything I want or need. So, why am I so unhappy?”

Might this be you? If it is, or you’re thinking of “a friend,” you need to tune into this conversation with my guest, Margo Garcia, and invite your “friend” to join you.

She’s going to share her story, what she learned from experience and now teaches. She struggled with all of it—always at work, never home, and constantly exhausted.

She wore “being in demand,” “needed,” and “busy at work” as badges of honor.

Tune in to hear Margo’s perspective on “Busy is the New Lazy” and get some powerful tips on how to get off the hamster wheel.

When I think about topics for each solo episode, I take the lead from my clients' questions or concerns. Recently a client said, "I don't know what options I have." And, another asked me how she could prepare herself for the unexpected.

A lot of people plan for financial emergencies, but what about life emergencies? I thought I'd offer some ideas to address this question. The strategies I share helped my clients look through a different lens at the possibilities they can choose from.

We have options. Change is inevitable, and learning to adapt to change requires practice.

That’s where the preparation comes in.

Do you have a perfectionist in your life? Are you one of them?

You're not alone. There are a lot of us.

I call myself a recovering perfectionist, so I know a bit about this subject and how hard it is to break the ties that bind us.

In this solo episode, I share what I've learned about this condition—for some, it may even be an addiction.

How do you recognize it? What can you do about it? And, how can you reverse the detrimental effects perfectionism can have?

I answer all of these questions, and more, in this "Tips & Tea" episode.

This is a powerful episode, packed with ideas, tips, and strategies that can be applied in every area of our lives.

Gut instinct. Inner wisdom. Knowing. Are you connected to it? Or, disconnected? We all have it, but some of us use it and some of us ignore it.

Kevin O'Connor joins me for a spirited chat about men and women, how we value intuition differently, and what happens when we pay attention so we can make better choices--in any area of our lives.

This conversation took a number of twists and turns but always came back to the importance of our intuition in life, career, and business.

Kevin shares excellent probing questions to help you check in when something doesn't feel right and offers great tips as we close the show.

Have you ever asked yourself the question, "What If?"

My guest, Annie Gibbins, has asked herself this question since she was a little girl. The results are inspiring, and it is why I asked her to collaborate on this episode we call, "What If You Could Become...?"

We chat about what it takes to become what you dream of. Your comfort zone will stretch as we challenge you to think about opportunities in a different way. And Annie's tips at the end are not to be missed!

We spend at least 50% of our lives at our jobs--shouldn't we love it?

Making a job change or a career move can create major upheavals. It might be planned, like a new role or retirement, or one that comes unexpectedly, like a layoff or being passed over for a promotion.

How you handle the change will make the difference.

This inspiring conversation is with Marie Burns, who re-imagined her new career by putting all her assets to work for her. Marie's "golden thread" will inspire you to think about redesigning your career into one you love and that loves you back. She shares helpful tips that are meant for anyone thinking about a career change (or a life change).
