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!

Self-care is not about motivation or aesthetics. It is about regulation, awareness, and rebuilding trust with the body after stress, trauma, and burnout. In this episode of Self Care, host Geraldine Hardy is joined by Nenad Stanis, founder of Body Connection Movement, for a grounded conversation on embodied recovery, nervous system regulation, and why movement is inseparable from mental health. Drawing on lived experience rather than theory, Nenad shares how trauma, displacement, chronic stress, and burnout shaped his approach to movement — and why most people struggle not because they lack discipline, but because they lack safe, adaptive frameworks that meet them where they are. This episode explores: Why movement is a nervous system tool, not just fitness How trauma and chronic stress manifest physically The role of breathwork in regulating overwhelm Why short, consistent practices outperform intensity The risks of copy-paste training models What “awareness first” means in sustainable recovery This is not a performance-driven conversation.  It is a practical discussion on rebuilding capacity, stability, and resilience over time.

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?

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Send us a textGrowth shouldn't require sacrificing your sanity. We sit down with first‑gen founder and medical professional Nelly to unpack how she turned a survival hustle into a sustainable business by aligning purpose, hormone health, and a team she can trust. Her story moves from 3 a.m. anxiety and cortisol spikes to clear decisions, warmer leadership, and a brand that converts through real connection, not pressure.We dig into how sharing your story creates trust, referrals, and retention in any service business. Nellie explains why burnout isn't just a workload problem; it's a biology problem. She breaks down the hormone mechanics behind confidence—what happens when cortisol stays high, how sleep and nutrition affect dopamine and serotonin, and when targeted supplementation or hormone replacement can restore energy, mood, and focus. Along the way, we explore practical tools: the seven whys to clarify purpose, building a simple spiritual or reflective practice, and setting boundaries that protect your best work.Then we shift to scale. Delegation turns self-employment into ownership, and the right manager can collapse stress while multiplying output. We talk about hiring for trust, giving experts the wheel, and why founders should keep a baseline understanding of every function without trying to master them all. Marketing, finance, operations—once specialists own these lanes, you reclaim time for the work you love and the impact only you can deliver.If you're feeling stretched thin, this conversation offers a roadmap: stabilize your body, tell a truer story, build a team that thinks, and let your energy guide what grows. Subscribe for more bold, people-first strategies, share this with a builder who needs it, and leave a review to tell us the one task you'll delegate this week.Schedule a 30 to 45 minute consultation with Nelly.

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. Notice what happens in your body. No fixing. No forcing. Just awareness.Explore Identity-Level Recalibration→ Join the next Friday Recalibration Live experience → Take your listening deeper!

In this episode of Transform Your Workplace, Brandon Laws sits down with Kate McKinnon, a fractional Chief People Officer with deep experience in high-pressure, high-visibility environments across sports and entertainment. Kate shares what it takes to protect culture when speed and stress are constant, how to address burnout and disengagement without pretending everything is fine, and why "stop, start, continue" feedback loops can help leaders turn frustration into action. They also unpack generational friction, the reality of AI reshaping HR and leadership work, and why developing first-time managers before they step into leadership is one of the most overlooked levers for performance.

In this deeply honest Q&A episode of A Really Good Cry, Radhi opens up like never before, responding to your most personal questions—from love and friendship to purpose, comparison, creativity, and healing. Filled with humor, vulnerability, and striking self-awareness, Radhi shares the lessons she’s learned the hard way and the ones she’s still learning now. She talks about the lifelong pattern of believing others knew better than she did, how she finds calm and balance in her marriage, why friendship breakups can hurt more than romantic ones, and what it really looks like to find motivation as a creator and business owner.

“A business needs to sell. If someone is annoyed by that, that's on them.” - Kirsten RoldanIn a time where AI can generate endless words in seconds, it's tempting to believe that writing no longer matters. But for those of us trying to build sustainable, ethical, burnout-resistant businesses, the opposite is proving true. The ability to clearly articulate what you do, who you help, and why it matters has never been more critical. Algorithms change, platforms rise and fall, but trust is still built through authentic human communication.For many clinicians, marketing doesn't feel aligned with the way we work with clients. Social media moves fast and rewards flashiness, but the care most practitioners value is built slowly, through consistency and trust. Long-form writing, like email, offers a different path that allows you to slow down, connect directly with your community, and build a business that doesn't depend on constant visibility or output at the expense of your nervous system.Today, I'm joined by Kirsten Roldan, Nuyorican Business Coach and Burnout Expert, to talk about why email marketing remains one of the most effective and practitioner-friendly business foundations available. We talk about the difference between permission-based and performance-based marketing, how small lists can generate meaningful revenue, why selling clearly is an act of service, common mistakes practitioners make when building email lists, how to write emails that actually get read, why developing your writing voice is essential, and more.Enjoy the episode, and let's innovate and integrate together!---Learn more or watch the video version of this conversation at https://integrativewomenshealthinstitute.com/why-email-marketing-is-key-to-having-a-peaceful-burnout-free-womens-health-business/.Connect with me and access our entire platform at IntegrativeWomensHealthInstitute.com (https://integrativewomenshealthinstitute.com/).Find and follow us @integrativewomenshealth on YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/@integrativewomenshealth) and Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/integrativewomenshealth/).

Aider son enfant à traverser ses émotions, ses peurs et ses difficultés sans les contrôler ni s'oublier soi-même est l'un des plus grands défis de la parentalité. Dans cet épisode Best of du podcast Sensées, Jenny Chammas, mastercoach certifiée et fondatrice de Coachappy, partage comment aider son enfant en utilisant concrètement les outils du coaching à la maison, avec plus d'écoute, de sérénité et de bienveillance.Être parent, c'est composer chaque jour avec des émotions intenses : colère, anxiété, peur de l'échec, frustration, découragement. Lorsque l'on cherche à aider son enfant, on se sent parfois démunie face à ce qu'il traverse, sans savoir quoi dire ni quoi faire. Cet épisode propose une approche réaliste et incarnée, issue du coaching, pour accompagner les enfants dans leur quotidien émotionnel tout en respectant leur rythme et leurs besoins.Jenny précise qu'il ne s'agit ni de recettes magiques ni de parentalité parfaite. Aider son enfant avec les outils du coaching, c'est avant tout adopter une posture : observer, écouter, poser des questions, accueillir les émotions sans les nier ni les dramatiser. C'est aussi accepter que cela ne fonctionne pas à tous les coups, et que vous êtes, vous aussi, humaine.Ce que vous saurez faire après écoute :– Aider son enfant à accueillir ses émotions intenses sans chercher à les faire disparaître.– Repérer les signaux faibles qui indiquent qu'un enfant traverse une difficulté.– Poser les bonnes questions pour l'aider à formuler son problème.– Transmettre des valeurs comme l'effort, la persévérance et la confiance sans pression.– Lui apprendre ce qui est sous son contrôle et ce qui ne l'est pas.À travers des exemples très concrets de son quotidien de mère, Jenny montre comment aider son enfant à mieux vivre avec ses émotions, à développer sa confiance en lui et à comprendre son fonctionnement interne. Elle rappelle aussi un point fondamental : pour accompagner ses enfants, il est essentiel de se faire accompagner soi-même, car accueillir les émotions de l'autre demande d'abord de savoir accueillir les siennes.Un épisode précieux pour toutes les mères qui souhaitent aider leur enfant avec plus de clarté, de calme et de justesse, tout en préservant leur propre équilibre émotionnel.

I used to believe that pushing harder was the only way to win. Harder workouts. Longer days. Zero excuses. But at some point, that mindset stops working. In this episode, I sit down with Robin Long, founder of Lindywell, to talk about what actually creates sustainable results in your body, your business, and your life. We dive into why high achievers burn out when they ignore their nervous system, how Pilates builds real strength without depletion, and why doing less with more intention leads to more energy, better workouts, and stronger momentum in every area of life.

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

Uncertainty has become a defining feature of modern work. From shifting economic signals to rapid technological change, many professionals feel stuck in a constant state of not knowing—and they're exhausted by it. In today's episode, Jessi Hempel sits down with journalist and behavioral scientist Elizabeth Weingarten to explore how asking better questions --not demanding faster answers--can help us navigate uncertainty.  Elizabeth is the author of How to Fall In Love With Questions. Her work focuses on uncertainty, decision-making, and how curiosity can help us build more meaningful lives and careers. In this conversation, she challenges the culture of binary thinking, and offers a powerful framework for living well in the unknown. Elizabeth and Jessi discuss: Why our tolerance for uncertainty is shrinking—and how technology plays a role The danger of binary questions and why “yes or no” often isn't the right frame How to change the relationship we have to our questions Burnout, work, and what happens when we stop asking meaningful questions How to use questions as an internal GPS for career and life decisions We are no longer hosting weekly Office Hours but are thrilled to launch the Hello Monday Book Club starting in 2026.

High performance burnout doesn't always feel like collapse. Sometimes it feels like safety without direction. In this episode, Julie Holly explores why success can feel empty after pressure lifts and how identity-level recalibration restores meaning and movement.You did the work.The pressure eased.Your nervous system finally exhaled.So why does it still feel like something's missing?For many high-capacity humans, burnout recovery doesn't lead to instant fulfillment. It leads to a quieter, more unsettling question: If I'm no longer running on pressure… what am I moving toward now?In this episode of The Recalibration, Julie Holly names the experience few leaders talk about. When high performance no longer drives you, direction can feel unclear. Decision fatigue gives way to role confusion. Success looks good on paper, but inside it feels strangely flat.This isn't failure.It's identity coming back online.Julie introduces the concept of identity-based motivation and explains why peace alone doesn't create fulfillment. Safety restores capacity, but meaning restores movement. Without recalibrating who you are, even the healthiest systems eventually stall.Through the lens of psychology, nervous system regulation, and faith, this episode reframes ambition as something to be stewarded rather than sacrificed. You'll hear the powerful story of Viktor Frankl, founder of Logotherapy, whose psychological work on meaning sustained him through years in Nazi concentration camps. Long before Man's Search for Meaning became a book, meaning itself became how he survived.Julie also weaves in biblical wisdom through Nehemiah, who rebuilt the wall not from urgency or ego, but from discernment, prayer, and faithful persistence. Together, these stories reveal a deeper truth: real direction emerges when desire flows from alignment, not fear.If you've ever thought:“I should be happy, but I'm not”“Success feels empty now”“I'm not burned out, just… lost”“I don't know what I want anymore”This episode meets you exactly there.Today's Micro RecalibrationAsk yourself gently:If I'm not trying to prove anything… what do I genuinely want to contribute?Let this truth settle:I can want more from wholeness, not hunger.Explore Identity-Level Recalibration→ Join the next Friday Recalibration Live experience → Take your listening deeper!

What if working LESS is the smartest business growth strategy for 2026? Michael Walsh went three years without a vacation—grinding relentlessly, believing scaling required personal sacrifice.

In this episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosts Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton unpack a silent but powerful burnout driver in law enforcement — perfectionism (Amazon Affiliate). From writing flawless reports… to never missing a detail… to making split-second decisions under pressure… to constantly being evaluated by body cams, supervisors, and public opinion… Police work breeds a mindset where mistakes feel unacceptable — even when they're human. And that relentless pursuit of "never good enough" slowly erodes confidence, mental health, and home life. This episode explores how perfectionism shows up in police work, why it's so damaging, and how officers can pursue excellence without destroying themselves in the process.
