According to Michael Arloski, "The root of 'coach' can be traced to a village in Hungary, Kocs, where carriages were made in the 1500s. Coaches love metaphors and what is better than this one: A 'coach' takes you from where you are to where you want to go. Perfect. The client is the one with the reins and it is the coaching process that facilitates the journey."
This is our jumping-off place as Dr. Suman Tewari, Jen Sprague, and I take on the topic of the basics of coaching. If you're "coaching-curious," take a listen and see whether working with a coach is something you want to invest in!

Welcome to 2023—and to a podcast series I'm calling "Back to Basics." This month, January 2023, we'll be going back to two very basic questions:
- What are the basics of healthful eating?
- How can health coaching be a part of your health journey?
This week, we're kicking the series off talking about whole foods. Join me as I give you some really simple ways to pick the least processed foods available.

Have you ever set a goal and thought, “I’ll start [tomorrow/next week/next month/next year]?”
Well, here’s a true test of this approach. This coming Sunday is:
- Tomorrow
- The first day of the week (unless you’re not American, in which case, it’s the last day of the previous week)
- The first day of the month
- The first day of the new year
It’s a fun confluence—and you will be forgiven if it does nothing to jumpstart your health journey.
In this episode, I have some thoughts about "I'll start tomorrow" and "just do it"—and I make some suggestions for how to begin your health journey in 2023, whether you start tomorrow or the next day!

This episode is made of the stuff I really geek out about: food, energy, food energetics. Why is labeling ourselves by our food preferences not a great idea? What can we do if we've hit a plateau on our health journey? How do we balance our internal and external landscapes, and how is that related to cell permeability? Join me and Ellen Goldsmith as we dig into this and a lot more!

If your brain is a computer, what operating system is it running? Is it time for an update? Join me and Karrie Miller, Master Neuro-Linguistic Programming practitioner (NLP) and transformational mindset coach, as we talk about the unconscious program we run about our self love and self worth—a program that is sabotaging our relationship with food!
bio
Karrie Miller is a Master Neuro-Linguistic Programming practitioner (NLP) and transformational mindset coach. She helps introverted women heal their emotional eating so that they can live happy, healthy, and confidently by teaching them how to work with their unconscious minds to create empowering beliefs and better internal resources that help them build the life of their dreams.
Karrie's journey into coaching started when she worked with an NLP coach who helped her to realize that she was unconsciously eating to the point of almost puking at every meal. It was how she felt “full” inside—by filling the void inside her with food… and she ate for every emotion.
After her breakthrough with her NLP coach, she found self-love, self-worth and self-confidence. She also lost 22 lbs and has kept it off for 4 years—and all she did was stop overeating and stop eating her emotions. She is now able to recognize her triggers and utilizes better internal resources to deal with her emotions instead of using food. She had such an amazing transformation, she had to become a Master NLP practitioner to help other women realize their self-love and self-worth.

What's the first thing you might want to clean/organize in your physical space? How is a coach like a rearview mirror? And what the heck are barf buckets and blessing buckets? Find out in this delightful conversation with intuit designer and coach Annette Stahl!
bio
After a decade of corporate merchandising, marketing, team building, and leadership, Annette Stahl emerged into entrepreneurship with her creativity in hand.
Annette's passion led her to build the top real estate team in her market. Excelling in seeing patterns and building efficient connective systems, she developed the Client's Choice online platform to price and design a new home in an hour-long consultation. Client's Choice drove A Design Discovery’s new construction division to build, draft, and design over 400 new homes, each one crafted to align with her clients' dream lives.
There’s the plan and then there is life with its twists and turns, which led Annette into her own 30-year personal growth journey. Through weaving her clients' dreams with all her mind, body, and spirit practices, A Design Discovery expanded to include inner and outer space alignment.
She expanded her skills to bio-energy, Feng Shui, soul coaching, integrating nature healing, mindfulness practices, meditation, and cultivating emotional balance as she navigated life’s challenges: from marriage to divorce, motherhood to empty nest, corporate worker to entrepreneur, from surviving violence to living in compassionate alignment with her abundance and truth, from cancer to the nuances of business building.
She often says, "Our dream life flows best in our dream space."
As an intuit designer, entrepreneur, and business & life coach, Annette will open the space you need to expand into a life by your design.

This week’s episode is a sneak peek into a collaboration I’m part of called Foundations of Wellness for Women—if you’ve listened to the podcast for awhile, you’ve probably heard me mention it!
Foundations of Wellness for Women is a program of Dr. Suman Tewari at Ann Arbor Holistic Gynecology in collaboration with health coaches Jen Sprague and me—Liza Baker.

- "FWW Conversations" on Zoom—one-hour workshops held on the second and third month of each quarter
- A library of resources at your fingertips
- A concierge women's health practice
- And now—free office hours every month! Every month on the Friday after our event, we’ll invite you to join us to continue a discussion, ask a new question, or even get some free coaching. It’s our way of giving back to and growing our community of women—because we are stronger together.

And what is an important step toward reducing burnout, other than closing most of those tabs? Join me for a conversation with Leah Neaderthal, a sales coach who worked her own way back from burnout!
bio
Leah Neaderthal is a sales coach for women who run B2B consulting and coaching businesses, the founder of Smart Gets Paid, and the host of The Smart Gets Paid podcast. A three-time business owner who started her career in corporate marketing, Leah didn’t learn to sell by being a commissioned salesperson.

Prior to starting Smart Gets Paid, Leah built, grew, and sold three businesses.

What does kale have to do with financial education? What do you need in order to create a budget—and stick to it? Where in your budget do you need to give yourself permission to stop spending? How is financial education like learning how to cook?
This week's episode comes from the archives of a series of interviews I did for The Sorta Secret Sisterhood, a membership site I ran for women in perimenopause. It feels appropriate to post this as we head into tax season, when money and financial well-being—something we often like to ignore—become unavoidable. Because it's from early 2020, you'll hear us mentioning the beginning of the pandemic—which feels like a lifetime ago.
bio
Ellen Abramson is living her “second act.” After a thirty-year career in fundraising for the University of Michigan Health System, American Red Cross and Stephen M. Ross School of Business, Ellen carried out a plan to transition from full-time work for a large institution to a life in which she is in charge of her time and able to focus on what gives her life joy and meaning.
To make this possible, Ellen and her husband paid down $93,000 of personal debt within a five-year period. She and her family live debt-free, empowered by a monthly plan for saving, spending and giving.
Ellen holds a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Chicago and Master of Social Work degree from the University of Michigan. She is president of her family business and Money Mindfulness, LLC.
Her book, The Money Game And How To Win It, is available at Amazon.

Why is fixing a problem not the same as your body releasing it? How does a “crazy mix” of modalities the opposite of a hammer? How is coaching like parenting? And how can healing our own wounds turn into doing good for the future—not for just our children but for the world in general? Join me for a wide-ranging conversation with healer Silke Maria Haas.
(Silke and I were having some tech issues—thanks for your patience with the audio quality at times!)

How does aligning your goals with your values help to reduce burnout? In what areas have you noticed yourself (needlessly) overachieving? How do the golden handcuffs keep us in burnout? Are you waiting for someone else to give you permission to be the CEO of your own life? Business and financial coach Shandra Moran and I talk about all this—and marvel at how our coaching methods use some of the same tools while addressing very different parts of our lives.
bio
Shandra is the founder of The Transit Lounge, a boutique coaching consultancy for women who’ve had a career and now want to start their own successful solo business.
She’s an award-winning promotions and marketing director, Professional Results coach, internationally accredited money breakthrough coach, podcast host and co-author of an international bestselling book Elevate Your Success.
An early midlife crisis led Shandra to leave the media industry and follow her passion for people development, and after training as a coach, she held a senior management role within a learning and development company.
Following a diagnosis of severe adrenal fatigue in 2014, she reinvented her professional life once again when she left her successful career to create The Transit Lounge.
Shandra is passionate about working with professional women who want to be their own boss - so they can earn great money, doing work they love, without burning out.
She helps them do that through Private coaching, a 5 week online program called Women & Money and her online coaching and implementation group Women In Transit—the path to being your own boss.

How did WHO stop short of providing a truly solid definition of burnout? What’s the burnout paradox? And what are employees really looking for? (Hint: it's not better pay.) Join me for answers to this and more in a free-range conversation with burnout prevention and recovery coach Rachelle Stone!
bio
Rachelle Stone is a recovering serial entrepreneur and an ICF accredited coach who specializes in Burnout prevention and recovery. After being a senior leader and entrepreneur in Miami's incredibly exciting meeting and convention space for over 25 years, she spectacularly burned out herself before transitioning in 2014 to executive coaching.

Since ‘coming out’ and owning her burnout, she has made it her mission to support others in finding the right balance in both their personal and professional lives for greater job satisfaction and life enjoyment. She believes no one should ever have to leave a career they are in love with!

Join me and Barbara Bowman, Dream Activator at Heartfelt Wisdom, as we discuss broccoli sprouts and BS, how to tell the difference between the voice of our ego and the voice of our soul, and the importance of taking a pause when we're trying to figure out what our soul really wants.
bio
Most of Barbara's career was spent in local public health running smoking cessation programs, health risk reduction assessments, and managing a blood pressure control program.
A few years ago, a simple change of diet caused symptoms she’d had for more that 30 years to disappear—along with 25 unhealthy pounds. she decided she needed to learn more about this remarkable transformation, so she took the course to become a Functional Nutritionist. This was great information—but she noticed many of her clients struggled with beliefs that prevented them from reaping the rewards of what they learned.
It reminded her of her own struggles with beliefs that lead to an eating disorder decades prior. So she went back to school again to become an Inner Alignment Coach. This gave her the skills to help transform and tune up the BS (Belief Systems) that get in the way of our heart's desires.

Join me and Transformational Life Coach Cherisa Allen for a conversation about moving from stagnation to activation—along the way, we talk about comparison (to ourselves and others, for positive and negative purposes), what happens when women pass through the fire, and how "No" really can come across as "Yes."
bio
Cherisa Allen is a proud native of Ypsilanti, Michigan. As the oldest of eight children, she learned at an early age the importance of both family and the teachings of the Holy Spirit. Cherisa’s career of over twenty-five years in Social Work has given her the opportunity to touch many lives in a positive way. She has worked on several committees throughout her life, in her church, community, and in her career.
Her commitment to women is not just limited to her career as a Social Worker. She is devoted to making changes and transforming the lives of women everywhere. She is the Owner/Operator of Do You See What I See, LLC, a Motivational Speaker and a Transformational Life Coach. Cherisa tackles tough issues that inhibit women from living productive and healthy lives. She is committed to educating them on how to become strong, independent, and loving women; the primary objective being breaking historical cycles of self-destructive behaviors, while encouraging a sense of purpose, belonging and pride.
She is a graduate of Eastern Michigan University, completing both her Bachelor’s and Master’s Degrees there, and a proud member of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. Cherisa is the President/Founder of Women and Men Working for Change, a nonprofit organization serving the Ypsilanti Community and she’s currently preparing for the Leadership Experience Tour that will allow her to live out her childhood dream of being on stage speaking in front of a National audience.

AaAaAhHH! (That's the sound of me fangirling!) I discovered Rusty Stahl and Fund the People when I was doing research on funding health coaching programs for women burning out in mission-driven work, and I am so excited that he agreed to come onto the podcast and discuss his work in promoting "talent investment" rather than "program investment." Rusty walks us through the nonprofit starvation cycle, the myth of overhead, and the zero-sum challenge—and then talks about what funders and grantees can do to set up a zone of trust and communicate on a completely new level.
If you missed Season 2 Episode 3 with Kathy Reich, make sure to listen to that in conjunction with this one—link in the resources below.
bio
Rusty Stahl is President & CEO of Fund the People, which he founded in 2014 and which works to maximize investment in the nonprofit workforce. He completed R&D for Fund the People as a Visiting Fellow in Residence at NYU's Wagner Graduate School of Public Service. Rusty previously served as founding Executive Director of Emerging Practitioners in Philanthropy, a national association of young and new foundation professionals. He began his career as a Program Associate at the Ford Foundation, after completing an MA in philanthropic studies at Indiana University. He grew up in Philadelphia and lives in Beacon, NY.

Cris Greer is a student of the world, finding her own path and helping others along the way. She has been using Meditation, Yoga, Crystal Healing, Reiki, and aromatherapy to light her way for almost 20 years. Her love of books has helped Cris form her beliefs and discover different modalities by taking what resonates with her from every book she reads.
When Cris isn't cuddled up at home with her dog, a good book, and a glass of wine, she's often traipsing around foreign lands with her husband and son, exploring and learning from different cultures and beliefs systems. She recently started a podcast—Grounding Journey, the deeper conversations you've been seeking—as a way to connect with other souls on a similar spiritual journey.
Listen in as Cris and I talk about Reiki (and Tom the Cat) and about grounding ourselves with crystals (and where to put them for maximum effect) in today's online world, when many of us seem to be spending our lives floating in the ether.

Want to know more about making healthy food choices—and maybe doing a reset or elimination diet? Meet some dear friends of mine from my SoCal days—Peggy Curry, one of my mentors for all things food, and her daughter Megan! Megs + Pegs are the mother-daughter duo behind Curry Girls Kitchen, a holistic health + wellness coaching platform. They created Curry Girls Kitchen as a space where women in any phase of life can come to find inspiration, encouragement, and support to achieve their health goals and make life more delicious.
Megs (the daughter) is a personal chef, Certified Holistic Health Counselor, Certified Functional Medicine Coach, and Reiki Practitioner.

Above all, she and her husband, Tim, raised 4 daughters (all gluten-free) with the kitchen table at the heart of their home.
Together Megs & Pegs are on a mission to help women discover what works for their bodies, gain confidence to nourish themselves, and shine from the inside out.

from the archives
This interview with Mary Ceccanese comes from the archives of the (Sorta) Secret Sisterhood, a membership site I ran for women 40+ and which has since migrated to a private Facebook group. Because so many of the practitioners I interviewed there also support women in burnout, I'm repurposing many of these excellent Q+As on the podcast! This interview took place in November of 2019 (which is why I talk about Thanksgiving in it)—and as we wrap up 2020, it feels right to spend a little time in gratitude—even if it's just for the year being over!
Listen in as Mary takes us on a tour of what gratitude can do for us—especially if we're burning out, talks about the difference between recognition and appreciation, and talks about gratitude journaling (especially important for those of us who are journaling challenged!)
What's your major aha moment/takeaway from this episode? Leave a voice message from the podcast homepage, or send me an email and let me know!

Kellie and I met at the Ann Arbor Wellness Coalition and have had wide-ranging conversations about womanhood, motherhood, and holistic health. In this conversation, we dig into how having children can catalyze our own healing and how one of the most powerful tools for healing our nervous system can be one of the simplest: taking a pause. And just in time for the holidays, Kellie offers us her wonderful PAUSE tool!
bio
Kellie Mox catalyzes revolutionary healing for womxn through powerful coaching conversations, holistic health & nervous system education, and homeopathy. She partners with womxn who crave a shift in their approach to work, play, health, and relationships that strengthens their innate wholeness and self-awareness, and in turn, fosters healing in mind, heart, body, and soul.

She is a Certified Intrinsic Coach and a student of homeopathic medicine with a master’s degree in public health.

If you work in the nonprofit world, you've certainly heard about Ford Foundation, the world's largest social justice funder. This week on the podcast, I'm joined by Kathy Reich, who leads Ford's BUILD initiative globally and has a deep understanding of the stresses facing nonprofiteers, especially women and people of color, during the pandemic—and even before. Lucky for us, she also has a lot of great thoughts on how funders can alleviate some of that stress!
bio
Kathy Reich leads the Ford foundation’s BUILD initiative in the United States and in 10 global regions. (We’ll get into that more in our conversation!)

Previously she had served at the Packard Foundation as policy analyst and program officer, and before that, she was policy director at the Social Policy Action Network, served as a legislative assistant on Capitol Hill, and worked for state and local elected officials in California.
Kathy currently serves on the boards of Grantmakers for Effective Organizations and the Peninsula Jewish Community Center. She was selected as a Schusterman Fellow in 2016.

Welcome to the first interview of Season 2! I'm thrilled to host a second conversation with Tania Elfersy of The Wiser Woman—Tania and I recorded a Q+A for my membership site, and we decided to do a new one rather than repurpose the archived one, especially because Tania has experienced burnout herself and supports women in peri/menopause with burnout!
bio
Tania is an award-winning author and transformative coach, specializing in women's health. She co-authored an award-winning book on motherhood and has spent years researching and writing about what causes and what can relieve the emotional and physical symptoms associated with perimenopause and menopause. From her own experience in curing her symptoms, and from witnessing innate health return to her clients, Tania believes that healing occurs when we relax into the intelligence found within each of our bodies. Tania is also a coach with a UK-based company, A Little Peace of Mind, where she helps people reach freedom from anxiety, panic attacks and stress.
