~A follow-up to “Permission to Pause” If you've ever stepped away to “rest” but came back feeling just as drained, this episode is for you. In this powerful follow-up to Permission to Pause, we name and unpack a concept that deeply resonated with listeners: contaminated leisure — the kind of downtime that looks like rest but still carries the weight of responsibility, guilt, and multitasking. And naming it matters. Because once we recognize what's happening, we can begin to reclaim the kind of rest that actually restores. This episode dives deep into:  What contaminated leisure really is  The neuroscience behind why it's so exhausting  Why ambitious women are especially affected  What the research says about emotional labor and the “leisure gap”  How to reclaim rest as a biological, psychological, and cultural necessity If rest has ever felt like another item on your to-do list, tune in.  In This Episode, You'll Learn: The origins of the term contaminated leisure and how it shows up in everyday life Why “just relaxing” often doesn't work — and how pseudo-recovery tricks our brains How true rest activates the Default Mode Network (DMN), the brain's key to meaning-making, emotional regulation, and creativity How internalized expectations and the "casualty of competence" leave ambitious women especially vulnerable to burnout Five science-backed strategies to create space for real, uncontaminated rest Manifestatement: Rest doesn't make you less ambitious, it makes your ambition sustainable. #ContaminatedLeisure #RestIsResistance #AmbitiousWomen #PermissionToPause References   Bianchi, S.

This episode is for the ambitious woman who's doing it all—and still feels like it's never enough. If you're listening while multitasking—folding laundry, answering emails, or in between Zoom calls—this one's for you. Dr. KimberlyDeSimone invites you to press pause on the pressure and unpack why we've lost the ability to truly rest. With research, real talk, and radical empathy, this episode explores: The blurred boundaries of remote work and why they're burning us out The myth of “productive breaks” and the science behind contaminated leisure The invisible labor women carry—and why it's so exhausting How rest can be resistance, recovery, and a reclaiming of your humanity A gentle, 3-step invitation to begin unlearning productivity as self-worth If you've ever felt guilty for resting, this episode offers both validation and a vision for a more sustainable model of success.

Are Your Expectations Really the Problem — or Is That Just What You've Been Told? Research shows that expectations can be a major source of stress, anxiety, and even the breakdown of trust and respect in our relationships. But let's challenge the tired narrative that women's so-called “too high expectations” are to blame. In this episode of the Advancing Women Podcast, I flip the script. We take a closer look at the real issue: the difference between expectations (often shaped by social norms and limiting stereotypes) and requirements or standards (which are rooted in self-respect, self-worth, and self-care). The real question isn't, “Are my expectations too high?” It's: “What do I truly require in my relationships—and why?” Spoiler alert: You are allowed—encouraged, even—to set clear, healthy standards for how you want and deserve to be treated. This episode is your permission slip to stop shrinking, stop second-guessing, and start owning your requirements unapologetically. Tune in for a powerful mindset shift—from bending to meet others' comfort zones to boldly honoring your own. Let's stop blaming women for wanting more, and start asking why we've been taught to settle for less. Referenced Episodes: Young Men are Opting Out of Marriage and Relationships. Should We Care?

In this powerful and timely episode, we explore how feedback—especially public feedback—can have vastly different impacts depending on gender, and why the principle “praise publicly, criticize privately” is more than just good advice—it's a vital strategy for allyship, equity, and leadership development. Dr. Kimberly DeSimone shares personal insights from years of academic leadership, backed by compelling research on gender bias in student evaluations, performance reviews, and workplace feedback. This episode uncovers how even well-intentioned critiques can reinforce long-standing stereotypes and disproportionately affect women, particularly those in authority or leadership roles. From teaching evaluations to performance appraisals, listeners are challenged to think critically about how, where, and why they deliver feedback—and how they can shift their language and delivery to foster fairness, growth, and inclusion for everyone. In This Episode, You'll Learn: Why feedback given to women is often shaped by unconscious gender norms. How student evaluations and performance reviews can reflect systemic bias—even unintentionally. The power of public praise to combat stereotypes and normalize women's success. How private critique, delivered thoughtfully, fosters psychological safety and growth without reinforcing harmful narratives. The importance of avoiding gendered labels like “bossy,” “catty,” or “cold,” and replacing them with specific, behavior-based feedback. Why women are judged on proof while men are judged on potential—and how to interrupt that dynamic. Key Takeaways: Bias in feedback is real, often unconscious, and has lasting consequences. Words matter. The language we use to describe women influences how they are perceived and treated. Allyship means being intentional. Supporting women means rethinking when, where, and how we give feedback. Public criticism can reinforce negative stereotypes, while public praise can disrupt them. Everyone carries unconscious bias. But with awareness, we can shift the culture—one conversation, one evaluation, and one word choice at a time. Resources Mentioned: Clare Boothe Luce's quote on the burden of representation for women. Research by Joan Williams and the Center for WorkLife Law on gender bias. MacNell, Driscoll, and Hunt (2015) study on gender in teaching evaluations. Call to Action: Think about the last time you gave feedback—what words did you use? Was it public or private? This week, try praising a woman's work formally and publicly, and if needed, deliver critique privately and constructively. It's a small change with the potential for big impact.   Join the Conversation: Have a story about feedback—good or bad? Want to share how you're practicing mindful allyship?

We're constantly reminded to take time for ourselves, to prioritize self-care, to fill our own cup first. These messages are everywhere—but let's be honest, it's not always that simple. Life has a way of stacking the deck against us. The expectations never stop piling up. We're juggling so many responsibilities—personally, professionally, emotionally—and somehow we're supposed to keep all the balls in the air…with a smile on our face. In this episode of the Advancing Women Podcast, I explore the radical idea of accepting the chaos—acknowledging it without judgment—and finding ways to care for ourselves within it. Not after everything is calm. Not when the to-do list is done. Now. This is about creating a sustainable practice of peace. It's about showing up with intention, even in the messiness. Being mindful of how we feel, how we move through the world, and the energy we bring into our relationships and spaces. Let's talk about the small but powerful ways we can nurture our physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being—especially when life feels anything but peaceful.   References: The Blissful Mind website https://theblissfulmind.com/ https://recreation.ku.edu/seven-pillars-self-care# For more about Dr. DeSimone and the Advancing Women Podcast   https://www.instagram.com/advancingwomenpodcast/   https://advancingwomenpodcast.com/   https://www.facebook.com/advancingwomenpodcast/
