Megan chats with Chanda Coston about building real success without burnout and why hustle culture is not worth the price. Chanda Coston is a U.S. Navy Veteran, Business Strategist, and Founder of Chanda Co., where she helps entrepreneurs build profitable, purpose-driven businesses without sacrificing peace or passion. With over 20 years of leadership experience and a background in project management, she teaches systems, mindset, and strategy that enable creative professionals, like food bloggers, to grow sustainably, delegate effectively, and avoid burnout. Her coaching blends structure and soul, because clarity and calm are the ultimate success tools. Burnout is not a badge of honor. In this episode, Chanda breaks down what sustainable success actually looks like and why systems, boundaries, and self trust matter more than working harder. This conversation is a reset for anyone who feels overwhelmed, reactive, or constantly behind. Key Topics Discussed: Burnout is a warning, not a requirement: If your business only works when you are exhausted, something is broken and it is not you. Mindset comes before strategy: No system will stick if you believe rest equals failure or productivity defines your worth. Self awareness changes everything: Learning your personal burnout cues helps you intervene before things spiral. CEO themed days create clarity: Structuring your week around focus areas removes daily decision fatigue. Boundaries protect your energy: Time blocks only work when you are willing to turn things off and say no. Delegation is not optional for growth: If you are the single point of failure, your business cannot scale. Guilt is not a good decision maker: Especially for moms, choosing yourself now creates a better future for everyone.

Today's episode is the final part of our Best Lessons of the Year series, and it's dedicated to the part of you that's exhausted trying to figure it all out… because some seasons don't come with clean answers (rude). In this episode, we talk about surrendering the outcome—not in a giving up kind of way, but in a coming back to life as it is kind of way. You'll hear a powerful perspective from Dr. Tasha Faruqui on living in the gray when even science doesn't have the answers. And then I'll walk you through practical "anchors for your energy"—small, doable supports you can return to when you're depleted, overwhelmed, or stuck living for "after." If you've been telling yourself, "Once things calm down, then I'll breathe," this is your gentle reminder: you don't have to wait for life to be fully resolved to feel a moment of peace. In this episode, we talk about: Why "after" can drive survival-mode What it means to surrender control without surrendering hope How uncertainty can drain your energy (and how to reclaim it) Choosing joy intentionally (without forcing toxic positivity) Anchors for your energy: small practices that stabilize you during turbulence Quotes to remember: "Some seasons don't come with clean answers." "Surrendering the outcome doesn't mean surrendering your hope." "Joy often doesn't arrive… it's something we pursue." "Burnout isn't a symptom of failure. It's a symptom of fatigue." Key takeaways: Surrender = reclaiming energy you were spending trying to control what you can't. Joy can be a practice, not a mood you wait for. Anchors create stability in turbulence—pick one kind thing and return to it. A "one-degree shift" today can change how you land later. Your gentle invitation for the week: Pick one anchor: a walk outside, a one-minute pause, water before coffee, a phone boundary, or one brave little no. Try it. Keep it kind. Let it count.

Have you ever looked back at a year and realized it took more from you than you expected—but somehow gave you exactly what you needed? This episode is for the high achiever who's tired of glorifying hustle culture, pushing through exhaustion, and calling burnout “just a phase.” If you're craving success and softness, ambition and alignment, this conversation is for you. In today's special end-of-year episode, I'm closing out 2025 by sharing 25 real, lived lessons I learned while juggling a demanding nine-to-five, building my skincare brand, hosting this podcast, and navigating burn out, ambition, money, boundaries, and self-trust. This isn't Pinterest advice. This is grounded truth for women who are doing a lot — and want to feel good while doing it. We're talking: Why hustle culture fails high-achieving women How self care actually works in real life (not just on weekends) The systems that helped me regulate my nervous system and protect my peace Why ambition doesn't have to cost you your health And how reinvention is always available to you If 2025 stretched you, humbled you, or forced you to grow in ways you didn't ask for — you're not behind. You're becoming. The woman you're stepping into is built through small, intentional choices. Alignment over pressure. Rest over burnout. Peace over performance. ✨ Share this episode with a fellow boss babe who's recovering from hustle culture ⭐ Leave a 5-star rating & review — it's the best way to support the show and help more women find these conversations

Episode 302 is a grounded and necessary conversation about the unseen cost of entrepreneurship. After nearly 200 interviews with founders, leaders, and high performers, a clear pattern has emerged: burnout, health scares, and identity collapse are no longer edge cases, they're becoming normal. This episode explores how the current culture of nonstop pressure and hustle is quietly breaking people, and why so many entrepreneurs feel unable to slow down even when the warning signs are impossible to ignore.In this episode, Kelly sits down with Maureen Codispodi to talk honestly about burnout, mental health, and what sustainable success actually looks like. The conversation challenges the idea that pushing harder is always the answer, unpacking how to recognize limits, rebuild balance, and redefine ambition in a way that protects both the business and the person behind it. This episode is for anyone who wants to keep building without sacrificing their health, relationships, or sense of self along the way.Key Takeaways:1. Burnout is not a personal failure, it's often a predictable outcome of building without boundaries.2. If your body is sending signals you can't ignore, that's not inconvenience, it's information.3. Hustle culture makes overwork feel normal, but normal doesn't mean healthy or sustainable.4. The cost of success should never be your health, your family, or your sense of self.5. Your business can grow faster than your capacity, and that gap is where burnout begins.6. Rest is not a reward you earn after the work is done, it's a requirement to keep doing the work well.7. If you can't slow down without feeling guilty, that's a warning sign that needs attention.8. You need systems that protect you, not just strategies that push you.9. Real resilience isn't enduring more, it's learning when to pause, adjust, and ask for support.10. Sustainable entrepreneurship is built on consistency over intensity, and long game thinking over short term adrenaline.Links referenced in this episode:helpclinic.caIf Episode 302 hit you in the chest, it's because you can feel it too.

You don't have burnout. Burnout is the symptom — not the root. If you're exhausted, overwhelmed, and constantly “needed,” this message challenges the story you've been telling yourself. The real issue isn't laziness, weakness, or even stress. It's distraction, misplaced responsibility, and carrying burdens God never assigned you. In this message, we unpack: Why busyness often disguises itself as faithfulness How inheriting other people's anxiety steals your rest Why Jesus repeatedly withdrew — even when people needed Him The biblical rhythm for real rest that restores focus and alignment If you've been running on empty, this isn't a message about doing less — it's about doing what actually matters.

High performers often reach a moment where success feels empty and desire goes quiet. This episode explores why not knowing what you want isn't loss — it's identity-level recalibration creating space for truer ambition.“I don't know what I want anymore” is one of the most vulnerable sentences a high-capacity human can admit.In this episode of The Recalibration, Julie Holly speaks directly to leaders, achievers, and high performers navigating decision fatigue, role confusion, and success that no longer feels fulfilling. Rather than treating uncertainty as a problem to solve, this conversation reframes it as a signal of identity transition.This episode explores how ambition doesn't disappear when desire quiets — it simply waits for identity to catch up.You'll hear why:Burnout recovery often includes a season where old goals lose their pullSuccess without fulfillment creates disorientation, not failureIdentity drift happens when we continue chasing outdated definitions of successSpiritual exhaustion can arise when striving replaces alignmentMotivation rooted in identity must recalibrate before new desire emergesJulie draws from identity-based motivation to explain why clarity often arrives after old measures are released — not before. This is where Identity-Level Recalibration (ILR) becomes essential.ILR is not another mindset tactic, productivity strategy, or performance tool. It is the root-level recalibration that makes every other tool effective again by realigning who you are before determining what you pursue.This episode also includes a personal reflection on letting go of metrics like output, visibility, and net worth as evidence of worth — and how healing identity wounds allows the need to prove belonging to dissolve naturally.For listeners navigating burnout recovery, decision fatigue, success fatigue, identity misalignment, or the quiet fear that desire may never return, this episode offers reassurance without rushing the process.Today's Micro RecalibrationGently say to yourself:I release old measuresand choose true ones.Notice what softens.Notice what resists.Both are information.Explore Identity-Level Recalibration→ Join the next Friday Recalibration Live experience → Take your listening deeper!

Happy Holidays! It's the “lost week” (and the last week) of the year and besties Stacy and Daynah finally share their thoughts on The Pitt. Spoiler alert: They agree with most of the internet – it's good and feels so different from every other medical drama on TV. From grief, burnout, and moral injury to power, bias, and what good care actually looks like, they explore how the show captures the emotional and systemic realities of healthcare without turning them into spectacle. Along the way, they talk Noah Wyle's perfectly calibrated performance, the weight of COVID-era trauma, why certain storylines hit uncomfortably close to home, and how The Pitt manages to be both devastating and deeply human. 00:00 | Opening + why The Pitt works 08:00 | Casting, Noah Wyle, and credibility 16:30 | COVID trauma and moral injury 25:00 | Burnout, systems, and impossible choices 33:45 | Bias, belief, and who gets care 42:15 | Violence, vulnerability, and the ER 50:30 | What good care actually means 56:30 | Final thoughts + why it lingers Find Stacy: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠realeverything.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠instagram.com/realstacytoth⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠missionmakersart.com⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠missionalchemists.com⁠⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.

High performers often believe ambition always leads to burnout.This episode shows how to pursue meaningful goals without self-abandonment, using nervous system regulation, identity alignment, and stewarded ambition that doesn't cost you.Many high-capacity humans assume burnout is simply the cost of ambition.In this episode of The Recalibration, Julie Holly challenges that belief by introducing a different way of moving through work, leadership, and purpose — ambition that is regulated, aligned, and sustainable.Building on the week's exploration of burnout recovery, decision fatigue, role confusion, and success without fulfillment, this conversation focuses on embodiment. It answers the question many leaders quietly carry: How do I stay ambitious without leaving myself behind?Julie explains how burnout is often not caused by effort itself, but by misalignment between identity and motion. When ambition is driven by pressure, fear, or the need to prove worth, the nervous system remains locked in urgency. Over time, this leads to exhaustion, spiritual fatigue, and identity drift.Through the lens of Identity-Level Recalibration (ILR), Julie reframes ambition as something that begins with identity rather than behavior. ILR is not another mindset tactic or productivity strategy. It is the root-level recalibration that makes every other tool effective again — by restoring internal alignment before action.The episode briefly returns to Viktor Frankl, whose work in logotherapy revealed that meaning organizes the nervous system differently than urgency. Frankl's life illustrates how intensity can coexist with presence, and how ambition rooted in meaning does not burn the system — it steadies it.This episode is especially supportive for leaders navigating performance pressure, burnout recovery, spiritual exhaustion, or the fear that slowing down means losing momentum.Today's Micro RecalibrationBefore taking action today, pause and ask:What am I moving toward — and what am I moving from?Let clarity guide your pace, not pressure.Team Recalibration (Leadership Extension)If you lead a team, practice this before meetings or major initiatives:Begin by orienting to purpose before performance.Name why the work matters before discussing how fast it needs to happen.Ask:“What is this in service of?”When teams are oriented to meaning, urgency softens, decisions sharpen, and ambition becExplore Identity-Level Recalibration→ Join the next Friday Recalibration Live experience → Take your listening deeper!

On this episode of Millennial Millionaire, Steven Cohen sits down with Peter Voogd — founder of Game Changers Academy, bestselling author, and early mentor in Steven's entrepreneurial journey. Peter shares how his transition from high-performing salesman to purpose-driven leader reshaped his views on money, success, and freedom. He breaks down why most people stay stuck financially due to identity and self-image—not skill—why money should be a tool rather than the goal, and how hustle culture often leads to building a “successful prison.” Drawing from real experience and elite mentorship, Peter explains how leverage, discipline, and clear values create lasting wealth and fulfillment.

Does this holiday season feel heavier than it should? Are emotions feeling closer to the surface, leaving you exhausted, anxious, or unsteady without knowing why? What if this isn't just "holiday stress," but a massive energetic transition that is literally dissolving your past? Michael welcomes back Jim Self, spiritual teacher and co-founder of Mastering Alchemy, to explain exactly what is happening beneath the surface of this overwhelming time. Jim reveals the shocking truth: We are in the middle of a massive transition from a third-dimensional state of reaction and duality into a new state of Wellbeing.  This isn't just about coping; this is about understanding that you cannot take your "baggage" with you where we are going. Discover why linear time is dissolving, how the "monster under the bed" is actually just an old towel, and the specific tools you need to dissolve the shadows before they bite. Key Topics: Moving out of the 3rd dimension (reaction, duality, linear time) and why it feels so "choppy" right now. The Baggage Rule: Why you cannot take your old wounds and beliefs ("baggage") with you into the new frequency. A simple, powerful visualization to instantly explode negative thoughts and remove unfinished emotions from your space. Linear Time vs. Present Time: Why living in the past creates suffering, and how "Present Time" is the only place where wellbeing exists. How we are finally weaving the emotional flow of Mu with the structure of Atlantis to create a new, unbreakable "Golden Thread" of love and intelligence. The 2026 & 2027 Acceleration: Jim's prediction on why the next two years will dissolve the memory of "not being okay" and lead to a spectacular expansion of consciousness. Why asking "What's wrong with me?" attracts more pain, and how to shift your attention to dissolve it instantly. If you are ready to stop arguing for your limitations and start remembering who you truly are, this message will help you find the excitement in the unknown. Join the Inspire Nation Soul Family!

High performers often confuse purpose with proving, especially after burnout or success fatigue. This episode helps you discern aligned ambition from ego-driven urgency using identity-level recalibration, nervous system clarity, and grounded faith.Is what you're chasing actually purpose — or are you still trying to prove something?In this episode of The Recalibration, Julie Holly offers a clear, grounded discernment filter for high-capacity humans navigating ambition after burnout, decision fatigue, or identity drift. When pressure eases and urgency quiets, many leaders are left wondering how to tell the difference between aligned desire and old performance patterns.This conversation explores why purpose and proving can look identical on the outside — but feel very different on the inside.Through the lens of identity alignment and values congruence, Julie explains how aligned ambition carries clarity and steadiness, while ego-driven striving feels urgent, loud, and demanding. This episode names the subtle internal cues that help listeners recognize whether they're moving from alignment or reacting from unresolved pressure.Julie grounds the conversation in the story of Nehemiah, a biblical leader who rebuilt Jerusalem's walls not from urgency or ego, but from clarity, prayer, and stewardship. His leadership offers a powerful model for purpose that responds rather than reacts — ambition anchored in calling, not proving.This episode also reinforces the core differentiation of Identity-Level Recalibration (ILR). ILR is not another mindset tactic, productivity strategy, or motivational framework. It is the root-level recalibration that makes every other tool effective again by realigning identity before behavior.Listeners navigating burnout recovery, role confusion, success without fulfillment, spiritual exhaustion, or identity misalignment will find language, clarity, and permission to move forward without fear driving the pace.Today's Micro RecalibrationQuietly say to yourself:Clarity is my cue.Urgency is my clue.Notice which one has been shaping your recent decisions.Team Micro Recalibration (Leadership Extension)If you lead a team, practice this recalibration at the organizational level this week.Before moving forward on any “urgent” decision, pause and ask out loud:“Are we clear — or are we just moving fast?”If clarity isn't present, slow the decision — not to delay, but to realign.Explore Identity-Level Recalibration→ Join the next Friday Recalibration Live experience → Take your listening deeper!

Vinny DelGuidice teaches us how to build a sustainable food blogging workflow using batching, planning ahead, and reusing what already works. Vinny DelGiudice is the creator of Always From Scratch, an Italian-American family food blog he started six years ago. He is a professional photographer, dad, and husband who focuses on developing nostalgic family recipes from his and his wife's childhood, meals that make it easier for families to sit down at the table and enjoy time together. Burnout is not a requirement for success. Vincent shares how he stopped forcing creativity, built a repeatable workflow, and learned to do less while growing more. This episode is a reality check for food bloggers who feel overwhelmed, scattered, or stuck in constant decision mode. Key points discussed include: Choose your creative time: You will make better content faster when you stop forcing creative work into the wrong hours. Batching saves your sanity: Planning shoots and tasks in advance removes decision fatigue and keeps momentum going. Plan tomorrow before today ends: Knowing exactly what you will work on next eliminates wasted mental energy. Reuse what already works: Series content and proven formats outperform constant reinvention. One shoot multiple assets: Shooting photo and video together cuts production time in half. Not every platform deserves you: Focus on where your audience actually is and outsource or skip the rest. Comparison kills momentum: Staying in your own lane protects creativity and consistency.

One of the biggest takeaways from this conversation with Emma is that anxiety, depression, and burnout aren't character flaws—they're nervous system responses to feeling unsafe. We talked about how depression often mirrors the nervous system's shutdown response, and how anxiety shows up as fight-or-flight. When your body feels overwhelmed for too long, it doesn't motivate you—it protects you. Why Worry Keeps You Stuck Emma explained that worry is actually reinforced behavior. When we worry and nothing bad happens, our brain learns, "That worked—do it again." Over time, worry becomes automatic. This is why telling yourself to "just stop worrying" never works. One Tool That Can Reduce Anxiety by Up to 80% One of the most practical tools we discussed is Scheduled Worry: Instead of worrying all day, you train your brain to worry at a specific time—usually 10–15 minutes in the afternoon. Outside of that window, you gently remind yourself, "I'll deal with this at 5pm." This retrains the brain instead of fighting it. Burnout and Fear-Based Fuel Emma shared how she burned out after years of pushing herself—weekly YouTube videos, pregnancy, parenting, and running a business. What stood out most was this idea: Fear is a dirty fuel source. When we're driven by fear—of failure, not being enough, or letting others down—we eventually crash. Healing often means switching fuel sources to trust, values, and self-permission to slow down. ✅ Action Steps for Listeners Set a daily check-in alarm (once an hour) to notice: What am I thinking? What am I feeling? What's happening in my body? Practice willingness instead of avoidance Let the feeling exist without trying to fix it. Try Scheduled Worry for 7 days 10–15 minutes/day, written out. Clarify your locus of control Separate what you can control from what you can't. Choose one value-aligned action Small, doable, and grounded—not fear-driven.

Lora Cheadle is a former insurance defense attorney who traded burnout for a career built on wellness, boundaries, and helping high achievers navigate betrayal in both personal and professional life. In this episode, she explains why many lawyers mislabel their exhaustion as burnout when it is actually the rupture of unmet expectations, unmanaged stress, and years of self-neglect. Lora shares how fitness, neuroplasticity, and coaching transformed her life and fuel the work she does today.Lawyer Side HustlesLong before she transitioned out of traditional practice, Lora taught step aerobics as a creative outlet and source of joy. That passion evolved into a broader commitment to wellness, somatic health, and stress reduction. As she explored posture, breathing, and body-based healing, she recognised how deeply physical habits affect emotional and cognitive performance. This curiosity led her to study nutrition and later become a clinical hypnotherapist so she could support the neuroplasticity work her clients needed.“Fitness was my respite. People need to somatically process stress. Good posture makes a difference in the way we can breathe and in our brain functioning,” Lora Cheadle expresses in Episode 224 of You Are a Lawyer.She eventually built Life Choreography Coaching and Advocacy, a business inspired by the idea that life, like dance, requires both choreography and improvisation. Lora also wrote It's Not Burnout, It's Betrayal, a book explaining how professionals can use her Fuel Up framework to identify ruptured expectations, process emotional overwhelm, and rebuild their sense of identity after chronic stress.This episode is produced by Skip the Boring Stuff, a podcast strategy company for business owners and creatives.

In this episode, Kamini Wood explores "hidden burnout," a profound form of exhaustion that occurs when individuals function at a high level on the outside while struggling with emotional pain on the inside. Unlike traditional burnout caused by heavy workloads, this invisible overwhelm stems from carrying the cumulative weight of grief, anxiety, or major life transitions while still meeting the relentless expectations of adulthood. Wood discusses how high achievers often mask this depletion, leading to physical symptoms like chronic fatigue and tension as the nervous system works overtime to bridge the gap between internal reality and external performance. Listeners are invited to trade shame for self-compassion and are provided with practical "micro-moments" of self-support—such as emotional naming and lowering perfectionist bars—to begin moving from mere survival toward genuine flourishing.

Are you feeling like your podcast has become a never-ending chore rather than a creative outlet? A rigid path of weekly production - without proper workflows - often leads straight to burnout. In this episode of Podcasting Unlocked, we sit down with Jacki Hayes to challenge the status quo of "hustle" podcasting. We dive deep into how to reclaim your capacity by implementing a seasonal approach, optimizing your workflow, and identifying exactly when and what to delegate. This week, episode 253 of Podcasting Unlocked is about time saving systems for podcasters! Jacki Hayes helps creative service providers build businesses that actually work—for them and their clients. She's the go-to when you're ready to stop duct-taping systems together and finally create a business that runs with more ease, clarity, and flexibility. With a sharp eye for strategy and a gift for simplifying the messy middle, Jacki supports business owners who want structure without rigidity. In this episode of Podcasting Unlocked, Jacki is sharing the importance of starting your podcast endeavor with strategy in mind and actionable steps you can take right now to implement systems that will save you time and allow you to work on other parts of your business. Jacki and I also chat about the following: Embrace the Seasonal Break: Taking intentional pauses between seasons isn't just for you—it creates anticipation for your listeners and allows you to "regroup and love your podcast again" instead of it becoming a burden .Build a Content Backlog: To avoid the pressure of weekly deadlines, aim to have a "backpocket" of recorded conversations. This buffer allows you to maintain consistency on the front end without feeling the stress of "Tuesday is coming" on the back end .Systemize Before You Delegate: Use project management tools like ClickUp and document your SOPs (Standard Operating Procedures) before bringing on help. This ensures that when you do hire a virtual assistant or producer, they have a clear roadmap to follow.Personalize Your Workflow: Stop following "cookie-cutter" templates. Whether you are an early-bird perfectionist or a last-minute deadline seeker, your systems should be built around how you actually work best.Be sure to tune in to all the episodes to receive tons of practical tips on turning your podcast listeners into leads and to hear even more about the points outlined above. Thank you for listening!

High achiever burnout often shows up as restlessness, not collapse. In this episode, Julie Holly explains why rest feels unsafe for high performers and how identity-level recalibration helps the nervous system relearn safety without speed.Why does rest feel uncomfortable — even threatening — for so many high-capacity humans?In this episode of The Recalibration, Julie Holly explores why high achievers often struggle to slow down, even after burnout, success, or external pressure has eased. For many leaders, rest doesn't feel restorative — it feels activating. The body tightens. The mind accelerates. Stillness feels wrong.This episode explains why.Drawing from nervous system science, predictive processing, and neuroception, Julie reveals how a dysregulated system can treat achievement like oxygen. When early experiences, leadership roles, or repeated responsibility taught the body that speed prevented problems and productivity created safety, the nervous system learned to equate motion with survival.The result is a familiar pattern:burnout recovery that still feels restlessdecision fatigue even during “downtime”role confusion when pressure liftssuccess without fulfillmentspiritual exhaustion masked as productivityJulie weaves in the work of Viktor Frankl, founder of Logotherapy, who discovered that when meaning anchors the nervous system, urgency loosens its grip. Frankl's insight helps reframe rest not as passivity, but as presence — a regulated state where clarity and purpose can emerge without constant speed.This episode does not offer another mindset trick or productivity hack. Instead, it introduces Identity-Level Recalibration (ILR) — not a surface-level solution, but the root-level recalibration that makes every other tool effective again. ILR helps the body relearn safety from alignment, not adrenaline.Faith-forward but invitational, this conversation reassures listeners that discomfort during rest is not failure — it's a system in transition, learning that belonging no longer has to be earned through motion.Today's Micro RecalibrationQuietly say to yourself:My body can learn safety without speed.Notice what happens in your body. No forcing. No fixing. Just awareness.Explore Identity-Level Recalibration→ Join the next Friday Recalibration Live experience → Take your listening deeper!

High-masking ND grind burning you out? In this episode of Adulting with Autism, host April tackles sustainable success for neurodivergent high-achievers with Garrett Wood, National Board-Certified Health and Wellness Coach/clinical hypnotherapist/executive functioning specialist and founder of Gnosis Therapy. With 18+ years helping masking professionals (autism/ADHD), Garrett's A³ Framework (Assess, Accommodate, Align) bridges nervous-system needs/environment demands—focusing on sensory intelligence/bio-budgets/emotional regulation/core beliefs/attachment/values/executive functioning to end boom-bust cycles. Key insights: High-masking exhaustion: Socialization gaps (hiding "not okay" parts); safe environments reduce friction—authentic self without danger. Sensory intelligence: Preferences/thresholds (too much/little stimulation); interoception (body cues like hunger/anxiety); accommodations (headphones/compression/breaks/sensory backpack). Bio-budgets/time under tension: ND shifts (16-18 hrs masking vs. NT 4-5 hrs); small reps/recovery (car breaks/garden/dust books) prevent overload. Autistic vs. NT burnout: Intensity/scale difference (ND extreme effort); recovery longer (6-7 months vs. quick)—focus well-being (not grit/willpower myth). Hypnotherapy: Self-hypnosis (daydream state for mindset/social/sleep); practice positive experiences (e.g., anxiety scenarios going well). A³ for control: Assess needs (triggers/supports), Accommodate (e.g., oils/masks), Align (values as guardrails); early overload signs (tension/shutdown). Workplace/young adults: Advocate (ROI from inclusion); trial/error (hot/cold days); natural responses (eat/move/sleep) over deadlines. For autistic/ADHD young adults/entrepreneurs in masking fatigue, Garrett's vibe: "Sustainable success through well-being—not expense." Free resources at gnosistherapy.com.

What if the reason you feel stuck in your Customer Success career has nothing to do with your performance and everything to do with the path you're blindly following? On today's episode, I'm unpacking the uncomfortable truth about traditional CS career paths and why doing “the next logical step” can quietly derail your growth, happiness, and earning potential. We'll talk about why promotions that look good on paper can feel miserable in real life, how following the crowd leads to boring roles and regret, and the simple mindset shift that changes how you make career decisions inside Customer Success.By the end of this episode, you'll walk away with a completely new way to think about success in your Customer Success career, one that's built around what you're actually good at, what you enjoy, and where you want to end up, not what everyone else is doing. If you've ever felt pressure to go enterprise, become a CSM, or say yes just because it's “the path,” this conversation will give you clarity, confidence, and permission to choose differently.3:05 – Why Blindly Following a Career Path Can Lead to Burnout and Missed Potential5:41 – How Peer Pressure (and ‘Default' Decisions) Steer You Off-Course8:33 – Why Enterprise CSM Isn't Automatically the Next Best Step15:56 – The Power of Defining Your Own Success in Customer Success (and Knowing You Have Choices)22:00 – How Tech Touch Customer Success Offers Rapid Growth and Thought Leadership Potential28:12 – The One Interview Question That Reveals If a Future Manager Is There by Choice

In this episode, Dr. Resa E. Lewiss speaks with Jillian Johnsrud, author of Retire Often and mini-retirement coach, about taking intentional career breaks to combat burnout and realign with what matters most. Jillian defines mini-retirements as breaks of a month or longer where professionals step away from their primary career to focus on recovery, adventure, or family time. She works primarily with high-achieving professionals who have over-indexed on career advancement while under-indexing on lifestyle and wellbeing. The conversation explores the unique challenges facing healthcare professionals, including a dangerous cultural narrative instilled during medical training that physicians must suffer, lack agency, and simply endure. This programming makes it extraordinarily difficult for doctors to prioritize their own health and take necessary breaks.

High achiever burnout often isn't about ambition — it's about safety. In this episode, Julie Holly unpacks why high performers can't stop pushing, and how identity-level recalibration restores belonging without exhaustion.Why do high-capacity humans keep pushing even when they're exhausted, successful, and aware it's costing them?In this episode of The Recalibration, Julie Holly explores the deeper truth behind compulsive drive — and why what looks like ambition is often self-protection shaped by early attachment patterns.For many high-capacity humans, pushing didn't start as ambition. It started as adaptation.Productivity became the fastest way to feel safeAchievement became the clearest path to attention or approvalResponsibility became a way to keep things steady for everyone elseExcellence became a form of emotional insuranceRest began to feel risky, indulgent, or vaguely unsafeOver time, the nervous system learned a quiet equation:If I keep producing, I stay connected. If I keep performing, I stay safe.That's why burnout often doesn't feel like collapse. It feels like:“I know I don't need to push this hard, but I can't stop.”Chronic decision fatigue even after successRole confusion once the pressure starts to easeSuccess without fulfillmentA low-grade fear that rest might cost you your placeDrawing from attachment theory, nervous system science, and identity psychology, Julie reframes compulsive striving without diagnosis or shame. This episode names what so many leaders quietly experience but rarely say out loud: the drive was never about ego — it was about belonging.This conversation sits at the emotional center of Week 9, Reclaiming Sacred Ambition, creating the conditions for drive to be reclaimed — not as fear-fueled striving, but as aligned, stewarded desire. Faith-forward but invitational, the episode gently reinforces a deeper truth:Safety and belonging were never meant to be earned.Micro Recalibration (today's practice):Quietly say to yourself:I don't have to earn my place.

Send us a textWhen the lights are flashing and the clock is ticking, we train for everything—except the weight we carry home. We sit down with Coast Guard veteran and grief coach Justin Jacobs to unpack the invisible load of moral injury, the shock of losing the uniform, and the quiet ways unprocessed grief leaks into performance, relationships, and health. From the chaos of capsized boats to the stillness after a tough outcome, Justin names what many feel and few say out loud.We explore how grief hides inside anxiety, depression, and burnout, and why so many transitions—retirement, reassignment, even a “first civilian job”—feel harder than expected. Justin explains decision fatigue after service, when structure vanishes and every choice suddenly feels permanent. He offers a simple reframe: plan early, expect detours, and treat course corrections as progress, not failure. Along the way, we draw clear parallels between the Coast Guard and first responders—rapid action, limited bench strength, and constant pressure to move on to the next call.Most importantly, we get practical. Think “mental PPE”: a shared vocabulary for moral injury, short decompressions after hard calls, peer check-ins that don't try to fix but do make space to feel. We talk about what genuinely helps the bereaved—curiosity, presence, honest permission to tell the whole truth about the person who's gone—and what to retire forever, including hollow platitudes that minimize real pain. Justin's own story of loss and growth brings empathy and precision to every tool he shares.If you serve, lead, or love someone who does, this conversation is a field guide for staying human under pressure and building a culture that protects people as fiercely as it protects the mission. Listen, share with your crew, and tell us what “mental PPE” looks like in your world. If this resonates, follow, rate, and review so more first responders can find it—and subscribe for more candid, actionable conversations.His Instagram is @manlygrief His Website is: http://www.manlygrief.com Support the showYouTube Channel For The Podcast
