"Achieving “automaticity” is about making a newly learned skill a part of who you are, as opposed to just a thing you can do." "Overtraining is about continuously practicing something you've already learned inside and out. Once you've over-learned a skill, you no longer need a script but can perform or even teach that skill in different ways and in different contexts."

Filmmaker drew inspiration from Philipstown Lily Weisberg, a 26-year-old filmmaker from New York City, has been directing and producing films in Philipstown since she was a student at Yale. Rare Birds, her most recent short film, was inspired by the natural beauty and "inherent intimacy" of rural Putnam County, she says. She spent many summers in Garrison, riding Metro-North from the city to attend camps at The Depot Theater. Her parents moved to Philipstown while she was in college. Weisberg's 10-minute film premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival on June 5 and will be shown again today (June 12) and Saturday. "It's a festival I've dreamed about having a movie in as long as I've been making movies," she said. In the film, a serial klutz named Jerry (Tony Macht) risks losing his job at a local antique store. "He's like a bull in a China shop," Weisberg said, with a laugh. "He obviously should not be working in an antique store." Jerry is also a camp counselor, and one of the campers, 12-year-old Candice (Zoe Ziegler), is a frequent visitor. She is determined to get Jerry fired so the friends can spend more time together. Their relationship, says Weisberg, is "the kind that can only really exist in a small town. They're both these oddball characters, but they're united because they are similar and from the same place." The film was shot at Bowen Barn, a shop in Stanfordville, but Weisberg and her team scouted antique stores in and near Philipstown and Beacon. "We used what we saw in our set design," she said. "I liked the idea of creating this sort of cocoon for them —a cozy, dark antique store where everything's fragile, but it's kind of desolate." Weisberg directed two previous short films, Studio 210 (2021) and Working Summer (2024), at her parents' home. Her mother's studio and gardens served as inspiration for the former, in which an aspiring artist spends a summer at his friend's mother's studio. "I wanted to make something that used all of this beauty that she'd created," said Weisberg of her mother, Deborah Needleman, a basketmaker. Achieving small-town authenticity has its challenges. Child labor laws limited how long Ziegler could be on set, and the Bowen Barn contains many fragile items that required caution when moving cameras and lights. On the plus side, "the energy is just so good with a crew that lives and works in the Hudson Valley," said Weisberg. "People are happy because they're surrounded by nature and beauty. "The fact of just loving a place comes through in a movie," she says. "I want to work in places that I love and have a relationship to." Rare Birds will be screened in New York City today (June 12) at 8:30 p.m. at Spring Studios (50 Varick St.) and on Saturday at 2:15 p.m. at AMC 19th St. East 6 (890 Broadway). See tribecafilm.com/films/rare-birds-2026. For Weisberg's earlier films, see dub.sh/weisberg-films.

Achieving success in real estate isn't about predicting the future. While many investors have spent the last few years waiting for certainty, some of the best operators in the industry, including today's guests, have been quietly positioning themselves to acquire high-quality assets at significant discounts and prepare for the next market cycle.That's why I'm excited to welcome founding partners of RREAF Holdings, Kip Sowden and Doug McKnight. With nearly 80 years of combined investment experience spanning multiple economic cycles, they've built a vertically integrated real estate investment and operating company that has grown from $100 million in assets to nearly $5 billion. Their disciplined approach and commitment to long-term value creation have helped them navigate market downturns while continuing to uncover opportunities others overlook.In this conversation, we discussed why today's market dislocation is creating some of the best buying opportunities in years and why the quality of sponsors matters more than ever. They also reveal the reasons why they're bullish on build-to-rent communities, mobile home parks, distressed acquisitions, and the lessons they've learned from navigating decades of market cycles.In this episode, you'll learn: ✅ How Kip and Doug used vertical integration to scale RREAF from approximately $100 million to nearly $5 billion in AUM.✅ How RREAF's vertically integrated operating model helps them identify opportunities, manage risk, and outperform competitors across multiple real estate sectors.✅ How changing housing preferences among younger generations and first-time homebuyers are creating new opportunities in build-to-rent communities, mobile home parks, and other residential real estate sectors.

What does it take to stop living the life you were handed and start building the one you actually want? In this episode of Sense of Self, Dr. Gowri Aragam sits down with Erin Gums, certified coach, breath work guide, and founder of Tap Into Your Wellspring, for one of the most honest, courageous conversations this show has ever hosted. Erin grew up in Oakland, California, the child of a Black father with deep Bay Area roots and a Chamorro mother from the Northern Mariana Islands. She was sensitive, perceptive, and wired for connection in a world that didn't always know what to do with that. What followed was a years-long journey through family fracture, identity searching, compulsive achievement, and the slow, hard work of learning to trust herself. This episode explores what it means to carry silence, to perform comfort around people who hurt you, and to finally choose your own safety, even when it costs you everything familiar. Erin's story is not easy, but it is deeply human. And for anyone who has ever felt caught between the family they came from and the person they're becoming, it will feel like being seen. Content Warning: This episode contains discussion of childhood sexual abuse and family trauma. If you or someone you love is struggling, please call or text 988.

In this episode of The Principal's Handbook, we continue the Principal Reset Series by exploring the mindset patterns of the High-Achieving Principal. While ambition and drive can be powerful leadership strengths, they can also lead to constant comparison, moving the finish line, and never feeling like enough has been accomplished. You'll learn how achievement can become tied to your identity, why that creates pressure and burnout, and how to use the TEA Cycle to uncover the thoughts driving these patterns. This episode will help you slow down, recognize the progress you've already made, and focus on leading the right work consistently rather than chasing the next initiative.

In this episode of the Dyslexia Explored Podcast, hosts Darius Namdaran and Jo Lee speak with Alex Chaparro, a former realtor of 37 years who became an author and neurodiversity coach. Alex explains how his journal, originally a private operations manual, unexpectedly became his book The Dreamer's Guide to Achieving in Uncertain Times, rooted in erasing limiting labels and rewriting his own narrative. He describes early school experiences of being unable to read, bullying, and creatively hiding difficulties, then a seventh-grade shift where he rapidly improved his reading level. The conversation explores impostor syndrome, perfectionism, disclosure, and redefining labels' “small print.” Alex shares returning to finish college with accommodations, his later ADHD diagnosis, and how self-acceptance helped him lose 200 pounds, regain mobility, and find joy and purpose in coaching.This podcast is sponsored by ivvi.

As women, we're often taught that being strong means doing everything ourselves. But what if that's exactly what's blocking us from our next level—in business, love, and life? Dr. Michelle shares how she helps CEOs, entrepreneurs, and professional women identify the hidden gaps in their businesses that are costing them time, energy, and money. I share how the same patterns show up in love—where high-achieving women stay busy, overwork, and unknowingly use success as a shield from vulnerability, connection, and receiving support. Together, we discuss why slowing down is not weakness, how nervous system regulation impacts your ability to attract the right opportunities and relationships, and why every successful woman needs trusted experts in her corner. If you've built a successful career but still feel exhausted, lonely, overwhelmed, or like something is missing, this conversation is for you. Remember, your next level doesn't come from doing more. It comes from becoming the woman who can receive more. — Shay Founder, Bonding Biology Institute™

Have you ever caught yourself thinking:"I don't even know what I want anymore."Or..."Nothing really excites me the way it used to."In today's episode of The Feminine Business School, I'm exploring a pattern I see in so many ambitious, capable women: the gradual loss of aliveness.Not because they've failed.Not because they're ungrateful.Not because they lack ambition.But because years of responsibility, emotional labour, perfectionism, caregiving, achievement and chronic pressure can slowly disconnect us from our desires, intuition, creativity and capacity for pleasure.In this episode, I explore:• Why so many high-performing women feel flat, numb or disconnected• The hidden impact of Good Girl conditioning• How perfectionism and body policing drain life force energy• The emotional labour women carry and its impact on health and wellbeing• Functional freeze and why life can look "fine" from the outside while feeling empty on the inside• The surprising signs your nervous system may be stuck in survival mode• The real cost of losing access to aliveness• Why desire, pleasure and excitement matter more than you think• How the Alive + Awake framework helps women reconnect with themselvesThis conversation is an invitation to stop asking:"What's wrong with me?"And start asking:"What have I had to suppress in order to survive?"Because aliveness isn't something you earn after success.It's something you return to.If this episode resonates with you, I'd love to hear from you.

Burnout can look like success from the outside: a packed calendar, clients coming in, and a business you built from scratch. But when you're the CEO, the project manager, the marketing team, the client support desk, and the operations department all at once, your business starts to run on your nervous system. Jenny sits down with Britt Karen of East Point Virtual Solutions to name the hidden realities of business owner burnout, especially for high-achieving women entrepreneurs who have learned to measure worth through productivity.We dig into the difference between temporary stress and real burnout, including the subtle signs many of us ignore: simple tasks feeling weirdly exhausting, decision fatigue, emotional reactivity, procrastination, and that constant sense of being behind no matter how hard you work. Britt explains why burnout often shows up when a business outgrows its support and structure, and how the “just push harder” mindset can keep you stuck in survival mode for years.Then we get practical about sustainable growth. We talk delegation that actually lightens the load, how an online business manager or fractional operations strategist can help you stop being the bottleneck, and why people pleasing quietly fuels burnout through over-delivering and weak boundaries. You'll also hear concrete boundary ideas around communication expectations, timelines, and designing offers that fit your real capacity.If you're ready to protect your energy and build a business that supports your life, listen now, share it with a friend who needs it, and leave a review.

Today, we're diving into something I've been sitting with deeply, and it's this: what AI and restructuring are really revealing about high-achieving women's careers right now. And it's not what the headlines are telling you.From the outside, the pressure feels external. AI is reshaping what's valued in organisations. Restructures are happening. Some roles are disappearing, new ones are emerging, and the path that felt certain three or four years ago doesn't feel quite so certain anymore. If you're sitting in a senior role and feeling less sure about the future than you used to, that feeling is not paranoia. It's a reasonable read of a genuinely shifting landscape.But here's what I keep seeing beneath those conversations. For so many of the women I work with, the sense that their current path doesn't quite fit anymore has been there for a while. And what's changed isn't the feeling. What's changed is that the external world has removed the option of indefinitely deferring the decision around what to do about it.This episode is about what's actually happening beneath that pressure, because it goes a lot deeper than a skills gap or a positioning problem.I walk you through the three layers I see operating for almost every woman at this kind of crossroads: the nervous system response that treats any deviation from your established path as genuine danger; the identity fusion that makes changing direction feel like losing yourself; and the very real practical constraints that need to be worked with, not dismissed. I also share why most career advice only speaks to one of those three layers, and why that's the reason so many women find themselves doing all the right things and still feeling exactly the same way.I also want to leave you with one question to sit with: which of these three layers is running loudest for you right now? Not which one feels most acceptable to admit. The one that's actually there.If this is landing and you want to go deeper, I'll be relaunching my signature Pivot Pathfinders program to support you with navigating your career next steps.

1. Jill Biden and President Joe Biden Jill Biden’s remarks about President Biden’s debate performance. She feared he may have been having a stroke, arguing that: Her actions afterward (campaign event, public praise, restaurant visit) contradict that concern. This suggests either exaggeration or dishonesty. Claims that President Biden experienced cognitive decline. Allegations that political leaders and media knowingly concealed this. Media organizations and Democratic officials were aware of Biden’s alleged condition. There was a coordinated effort to hide or minimize it. They frame this as an example of: Political power being prioritized over transparency. A broader credibility problem in U.S. politics. 2. U.S. Shipbuilding and National Security Key points: Heavy reliance on foreign-built ships is presented as a national security risk. A major funding initiative (~$24 billion) for the U.S. Coast Guard is described. Investment includes: New ships and helicopters Arctic icebreakers Shipyard construction (notably in Texas) Claimed benefits: Increased domestic manufacturing Job creation (thousands of jobs) Strategic competition with China and Russia in the Arctic The senator describes: Internal negotiations over where shipbuilding contracts would go (Texas vs. Louisiana). Involvement of the White House and President Trump (in this narrative timeline). Emphasis is placed on: Negotiation strategy Achieving a “win-win” outcome Expanding production beyond initial goals 3. College Sports Crisis and NIL Issues Problems identified: Escalating athlete compensation (tens of millions per team) Transfer portal instability Financial losses for universities Elimination of non-revenue sports (e.g., tennis, Olympic sports) Proposed solution: A bipartisan bill called the “Protect College Sports Act” Supporting arguments: College sports provide educational opportunities for disadvantaged students They promote social unity and personal development Includes testimony from Nick Saban highlighting unsustainable financial trends.

One of the best strategies for improving health outcomes involves prevention and addressing health issues before they escalate into a costly hospital stay, chronic condition, or something worse. Achieving that level of care at scale, however, isn't exactly easy. It requires healthy systems that encourage things like regular preventive screenings, coverage options and policies that consistently support that level of care, and a workforce focused on preventive medicine. To learn more about efforts to develop that workforce, we're joined on this episode of the Wonks at Work podcast by Dr. Bala Simon with the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, which has received initial accreditation to form the Dr. Joseph H. Bates Preventive Medicine Residency Program.

This month on Plan Goal Plan, we're talking about play, and honestly, I think a lot of us have forgotten how to do it. Somewhere along the way, many high-achieving women learned that if something is serious, meaningful, or important… play has no business being there. That joy is earned. That rest has to be justified. That fun should come after the work is done. But what if play isn't the opposite of ambition? What if it's part of how we sustain it? In this episode, I'm exploring: whether play can actually support productivity and creativity why so many women struggle to access play without guilt the connection between play, nervous system regulation, and burnout how achievement culture teaches us to treat play like a reward instead of a necessity why planning your play may actually help you enjoy it more and how play helps us stay connected to ourselves outside of our roles and responsibilities I also share stories from teaching, motherhood, amusement parks, public speaking “play days,” and the ways play can become a form of resistance in a culture obsessed with output and proving yourself. One of the biggest takeaways? The women doing the biggest things long-term are not necessarily the ones sacrificing the most. They're often the ones who have learned how to refuel. And maybe play isn't a distraction from your life. Maybe it's part of how you stay found inside of it.

Time to do something just for you.When is the last time you made a decision, chose a direction, or said "yes" to something that was entirely, completely just for you? Not for your family, not for your career advancement, and not because it fulfilled a decades-old obligation—but purely for yourself? In this powerful episode, host Laurie Reynoldson challenges high-achieving women to step off the hamster wheel of external validation and confront a heavy midlife reality. If your life looks completely perfect on paper, yet you are still quietly asking, "Is this it?", Laurie reframes this unsettling question not as a crisis, but as a sign that you are finally paying attention. This episode marks the official opening of applications for the Best Life Mastermind, a carefully crafted nine-month experience designed to help you stop performing, start living as one unified woman, and figure out what's next for you.In this episode, you'll learn:The High-Achiever's Blindspot: How we unconsciously tie our self-worth to childhood patterns of performance and external approval. The "One Identity" Philosophy: Why trying to shape-shift into different people for your career, family, and community leads to bone-deep burnout. The Nine-Month Metaphor: Why real personal transformation cannot happen in a 30-day sprint or a 90-day quarter, and why it takes nine months to "birth" a completely new version of yourself. The Power of Group Hot Seats: Why listening to other accomplished women untangle their roadblocks serves as your ultimate personal board of directors. Bypassing the No. 1 Deathbed Regret: Confronting the reality that there are fewer years ahead than behind, and how to find the courage to live a life true to yourself right now. The Big Takeaway: Stop waiting for a "perfect time" or postponing your life until retirement or an empty nest. We are no longer relegating the most important work of our lives to left-over weekend hours or late nights after everyone else is asleep. Inside the Best Life Mastermind ContainerApplications are officially open for the founding cohort launching this September.

In this episode, we explore how Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan is partnering with major health systems and providers to transform the way health care is delivered and paid for in Michigan. By working collaboratively with Corewell Health, Henry Ford Health, and a broad network of providers, Blue Cross is shifting away from the traditional fee-for-service model—which pays for the volume of care provided—and moving toward value-based care that rewards better patient outcomes. This approach aims to improve the quality of care, reduce unnecessary or duplicative services, and make health care more affordable in the long run. Achieving true affordability requires close alignment and cooperation not only between insurers and providers, but also with employers who share in the goal of accessible, high-quality care for all.Guests:Tricia KeithBrian PetersRob CasalouTina Freese DeckerTodd Van Tol

High-achieving women do not struggle with fitness and healthy habits because they lack discipline or willpower. They struggle because they have been trying to change their behavior without changing their identity. This episode is about fixing that.

What if the version of success you’ve been chasing was inherited, not consciously chosen? In this episode, Brooke Taylor, former Google Marketing Lead turned career coach and author argues that many ambitious women are unknowingly suffering from what she calls “the success wound”: the belief that our worth has to be earned through achievement. From elite schools to prestigious careers, we’re taught to chase accomplishment as the path to freedom. But what happens when you finally get there… and still feel empty? Brooke opens up about how her own success nearly destroyed her career at Google and shattered her sense of self. She also details why achievement can become a coping mechanism, how comparison quietly shapes our identities, and why so many outwardly successful women are falling apart behind the scenes. Brooke shares: Why high achievers often feel empty after “making it” The hidden psychological cost of tying self-worth to achievement Why success can quietly become a coping mechanism The breaking point that led Brooke to leave Google and completely reevaluate her life What Healing the Success Wound reveals about burnout, ambition, and identity The difference between healthy ambition and trauma-driven hustle The five types of unfulfilled achievers: Grinder, Pleaser, Hider, Seeker & Work Hard Play Hard Why outward success doesn’t guarantee inner fulfillment The surprising reason high-achieving women experience more anxiety and burnout How perfectionism keeps women stuck playing small Why curiosity (not confidence) may be the real key to healing Why learning to make decisions with only 51% certainty can transform your confidence and self-worth The dangerous lie behind “I’ll relax once I get through this season” How to stop using productivity to prove your worth Practical ways to rebuild self-worth without losing your ambition Follow Brooke on Instagram @brookevtaylor Be sure to check out Brooke’s book Healing the Success Wound hereSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What if the Christian life isn't about achieving – but receiving?    In this episode, Dr. Libin Abraham, lead pastor of Bent Tree Bible Fellowship, shares how discovering grace transformed his faith from burnout to freedom. Instead of striving to earn identity, he learned to rest in what God had already done.    Together, we explore the difference between a “rowboat” life powered by effort and a “sailboat” life moved by the Spirit. Libin also unpacks how humility opens the door to grace, how eternal hope reshapes daily living, and why care is central to discipleship.    If you've ever felt exhausted trying to be enough, this conversation invites you to experience the freedom, power, and hope found in God's grace.   Dr. Libin is also a featured speaker at our upcoming Called to Care event – see link below to learn more and sign up.   Subscribe to the podcast and tune in each week as Haley and Dustin share with you what the Bible says about real-life issues with compassion, warmth, and wit.   So you have every reason for hope, for every challenge in life.

In this master's class episode of the Smart Real Estate Coach Podcast, I sit down with Chris Miles for a timely conversation on passive income, financial freedom, and why so much traditional financial advice simply does not work for entrepreneurs, investors, and high-income earners who want real options. Chris is a cash flow expert, founder of Money Ripples, author of The Money Ripples Podcast, and someone who has retired twice before age 40 by focusing on acceleration over accumulation. That alone should get your attention.     We talk about why the old "save for 40 years and hope" model leaves too many people trapped, how Chris went from financial advisor to "anti-financial advisor," how he hit financial freedom at 28, lost it all during the 2008 crash, then rebuilt it again by 39. We also get into liquidity, passive-income strategy shifts, infinite banking, relationship capital, mastermind rooms, and why cash is king in today's market.    If you want to stop waiting for someday and start building a work-optional life through smarter investing and stronger cash flow, this episode is packed with perspective.   Key Talking Points of the Episode   00:00 Introduction 01:04 Who is Chris Miles? 02:02 Chris Miles' background as a financial advisor 04:20 Realizing the potential of real estate over mutual funds 06:05 Achieving financial freedom the first time 07:01 Facing financial loss and digging out of debt 08:05 Achieving financial freedom the second time 11:05 Identifying the ideal client for Cash Flow Strategy 12:15 The 3% Rule and limitations of traditional retirement accounts 14:02 Accelerating freedom through real estate lending and equity 16:43 Recent market shifts and the importance of liquidity 18:51 Strategies for storing cash outside of traditional banks 20:13 The power of proximity, masterminds, and community 23:13 The importance of borrowed credibility and relationships 25:00 How to connect with Chris Miles and Money Ripples 26:17 Announcement: 3 Paydays Live Event   Quotables   "It's acceleration, not accumulation.

I'm going to say something most people in this space won't: people listen to more attractive people. That's not an opinion, it's psychology. And pretending otherwise doesn't make you more evolved. It just makes you less effective. In this episode, I'm making the case that for a woman with a mission, taking care of how you look and feel isn't vanity. It's stewardship. It's one of the most strategic, impactful, and frankly underrated things you can do for yourself and for everyone you're here to serve. We're getting into the psychology of the halo effect and why attractiveness influences credibility, income, and impact whether we acknowledge it or not. We're talking about the real cost of not being fully present in your own body: the mental real estate, the self-consciousness tax, the way it quietly caps your confidence in every room you walk into. And we're drawing the line between vanity (caring how you look for external approval) and stewardship (caring how you look because you take your life and your mission seriously). Because those two things are not the same. And I think a lot of women have been carrying guilt about wanting to look incredible that was never theirs to carry. If you've ever downplayed how much you care about your appearance because it felt shallow, this episode is your permission slip to put that down and own your desire to be a "full package" woman. — For the high-achieving hot girls that want to recover better, support glowier skin, and promote longevity through better cellular health, get up to 39% off Mitopure Gummies with code EMDUNC and make wellness easier than ever.

“What if the life you worked so hard to build is also the thing quietly burning you out?” In this episode, Dr. Mariza sits down with Brooke Taylor to unpack the hidden emotional patterns driving burnout, overachievement, perfectionism, and chronic stress in high-performing women. Brooke shares her deeply personal story—from climbing the corporate ladder at Google while battling addiction, burnout, and health issues—to ultimately discovering what she now calls the “Success Wound.” Together, they explore how so many women unconsciously tie their worth, safety, belonging, and identity to achievement… until their body can no longer sustain the pressure. They dive into the emotional roots of over-functioning, the nervous system impact of constantly “doing,” and why midlife often becomes the moment women can no longer outrun themselves. Brooke also shares practical tools to identify your own success wound patterns, regulate your nervous system, reconnect to your true self, and move from manic ambition into aligned ambition. If you've ever felt exhausted despite accomplishing so much… if you've struggled to slow down, feel present, or believe you're enough without constantly proving yourself… this conversation will hit deeply. BROOKE TAYLOR Brooke Taylor is a transformational career coach, speaker, and former Google marketing lead who has helped over 5,000 high-performing women redefine success on their own terms. After experiencing burnout, addiction, and deep emotional reckoning in her own life, Brooke developed the framework she now calls the “Success Wound” to help women break free from overachievement patterns and reconnect to fulfillment, purpose, and self-worth. IN THIS EPISODE What the “Success Wound” actually is—and how it develops Why high-achieving women often tie worthiness to productivity The hidden connection between burnout, perfectionism, and chronic stress How childhood conditioning shapes our relationship with achievement The 5 success wound archetypes: Grinder, Pleaser, Hider, Seeker, and Work Hard/Play Hard Why perimenopause can intensify emotional and nervous system burnout The difference between manic ambition and aligned ambition Practical tools to regulate your nervous system and reconnect to your true self Why healing your success wound is lifelong work—not a quick fix QUOTES“The more that I succeeded, the more love, belonging, and approval I would get.” “We don't rise to the level of our confidence. We fall to the level of our self-worth.” “You are not working from the most powerful part of yourself when you're working from fear.” “There is nothing wrong with your ambition. It's the way your worth became tied to it that needs healing.” RESOURCES MENTIONED Grab Brooke's new book The Success Wound https://amzn.to/3RoWBOC Use code ENERGIZED and get 10% off on your Troscription Order http://troscriptions.com/ENERGIZED Order my new book The Perimenopause Revolution https://peri-revolution.com/ Brooke Taylor Website Brooke Taylor Instagram Brooke Taylor Tiktok RELATED EPISODES  717: “I Don't Feel Like Myself Anymore”: The Mental & Emotional Reality of Perimenopause 741: Estrogen, Gut Health, Mitochondria, and Cardiovascular Health: What Changes In Perimenopause with Dr. Siobhan Mitchel 733: Why We're Still Exhausted in the Age of “Evidence-Based” Everything with Shawn Stevenson 728: Why Brain Fog Isn't Random: The Hormone Shift Behind It

Let's get one thing straight: this isn't another “just drink less” conversation. Because if it were that simple, you would've solved it already. In this raw, honest, and slightly uncomfortable episode, Nicole sits down with intuitive drinking coach Colleen Freeland—host of the It's Not About the Alcohol podcast and a former high-functioning overdrinker herself—to unpack what's really behind overdrinking, especially for high-achieving women who “have it all together”… on paper.  It's not about willpower. It's not about discipline. And it's definitely not just about alcohol. It's about what you're trying to escape. Colleen breaks down why alcohol is often just the symptom—not the problem—and how coping mechanisms like perfectionism, overworking, and even “healthy habits” can be just as numbing if we don't address the root cause. What We Talk About: Why alcohol isn't the problem—it's the signal The real reason high-achieving women overdrink (hint: it's not lack of discipline) Why removing alcohol doesn't fix the issue—it just replaces it Nervous system regulation: the skill no one taught you (but you desperately need) How to rebuild self-trust after patterns you're not proud of Why feeling better starts with admitting you don't feel okay This conversation flips the script on everything we've been taught about drinking, self-control, and “fixing” ourselves. Because the goal may not be to eliminate the coping mechanism… maybe the goal is to build a life you don't constantly need to escape from. Thank you to our sponsors!
