Podcasts about getting unstuck

A lot of us are tired in a way that sleep doesn't fix. We're doing the things — the work, the list, the showing up — and still, something is pulling at us. A low hum of unfinished. For years, Robin Quinn Keehn thought that hum was a personal failing: not disciplined enough, not organized enough. It wasn't any of that. It was Open Loops. This is the backbone episode of the show — the one to send anyone who's new. Robin defines an Open Loop plainly (a commitment, promise, or agreement that's unfinished, incomplete, or outdated, quietly draining your time, energy, and peace), then walks through the three kinds almost all of us carry: Relational Loops with other people, Self-Loops — the promises we break to ourselves — and Unspoken Brokens, the things that needed to be said and never were. You'll hear why loops stay open (it's avoidance, not discipline), what they actually cost — especially what broken self-promises do to your confidence — and the three ways to close any loop: end it, evolve it, or recommit to it, on purpose. This is also where Robin introduces the free 5-Day Detox Your To-Do List Challenge, starting June 29. In this episode: What an Open Loop actually is — and why it stays quiet The three kinds: Relational Loops, Self-Loops, and Unspoken Brokens Why broken promises to yourself quietly erode your confidence Why open loops are an avoidance problem, not a discipline problem The real cost: time, energy, peace — and belief in yourself The three ways to close any loop: end it, evolve it, recommit to it An invitation to the free 5-Day Detox Your To-Do List Challenge (starts June 29) If this episode resonated with you, you might enjoy our free People Skillz community — a structured space to practice steadier, more intentional communication. We also created a short Communication Patterns Quiz to help you identify how you respond under pressure. You'll find both here.

Guest After 11 years at IBM, Brooke Erol left a "great job on paper" to pursue a more aligned, purpose-driven life. She founded Your Best Life Inc. to help professionals find meaning at work, and later Purposeful Business to support leaders in building people-centered organizations. She is the author of More Than A Paycheck and Create a Life You Love, and speaks globally on leadership and purposeful work. Summary In this conversation, career coach and author Brooke Erol explores the changing nature of work, fulfillment, and identity in an era shaped by burnout, layoffs, and artificial intelligence. Drawing from her own experience at IBM, she reflects on realizing early in her career that many people were "chasing the weekend" rather than finding meaning in their work. That realization eventually led her to write More Than a Paycheck, a guide designed to help individuals develop greater self-awareness and agency in their careers. Brooke argues that self-awareness is foundational to meaningful work, yet modern life leaves little room for reflection. She encourages people to intentionally create time to examine what energizes them, what no longer serves them, and which limiting beliefs may be shaping their choices. Throughout the discussion, she emphasizes that traditional career formulas—go to college, get a corporate job, retire happily—are no longer reliable in today's unstable job market. The conversation also examines the disruptive impact of AI, especially on younger workers and recent graduates, while highlighting the growing value of trade and skilled labor careers. Brooke encourages people to remain adaptable, continuously learn new skills, and consider side projects or entrepreneurial paths alongside traditional employment. The discussion closes with reflections on retirement, purpose, and identity. Brooke and Jeff agree that fulfillment comes not from stopping work entirely, but from continuing to contribute, learn, connect, and pursue activities that make life meaningful. The Essential Point Brooke's central message is that people must take greater ownership of their careers and lives by developing self-awareness, questioning inherited assumptions about work, and intentionally pursuing work that aligns with who they are. She also stresses that fulfillment and purpose are not luxuries reserved for retirement—they are essential parts of a healthy, sustainable life at every stage.

Jay Bacrania returns to another session of "Coaching with Jay," this time focusing on common founder challenges. In this episode, Jay and Dave discuss feeling "stuck" — from stalled growth and constant business chaos to feeling trapped or bored even when things look good externally. Jay frames stuckness as both external (markets, leads, team, execution) and internal (feelings, body cues, and the "talk tracks" and stories in your head), arguing that mindset and narrative often shape outcomes. They discuss role clarity, delegation, and how leaders can outgrow their role as their companies scale. Jay shares a practical "dump and sort" approach — writing everything down, identifying a starting thread, building a simple story, and then ultimately planning to create momentum.

Why women leaders freeze when they know they're meant for more You're not lazy. You're not unmotivated. And you're definitely not broken. So why do so many capable, brilliant, purpose-driven women keep freezing when it comes to the thing they say they want most? In this deeply personal episode, Carina unpacks the invisible trauma responses that keep women stuck in busyness, overwhelm, perfectionism, and self-abandonment — even when they know they are here for more. From childhood conditioning… to inherited trauma… to the fear of visibility and leadership… this conversation goes beneath mindset and into the body. This episode is for the WOMAN who feels the ache for more, but keeps finding herself pulled away from her purpose, distracted by everyone else's needs, or frozen at the edge of her next level. And it's also a reminder: You were never meant to do this alone. In This Episode Why high-achieving WOMEN still sabotage the things they want most The hidden trauma response behind procrastination and "I have no time" Why your nervous system may see visibility and leadership as unsafe How inherited trauma impacts ambition, purpose, and self-expression The difference between desire and deep knowing Why purpose becomes stronger than fear The real reason WOMEN stay busy instead of fully expressed How sisterhood and support help heal the trauma body Why Carina believes WOMEN are urgently needed in leadership right now The transformational process behind MORE: 21 Days of Audacity Memorable Quotes "Purpose is the great elevator."

This episode of The Midlife Purpose Project in part 2 in her series on releasing old patterns. Katie explores one of the most important and often overlooked reasons we feel stuck in midlife: our patterns.In yoga philosophy, these patterns are called samskaras—deeply ingrained impressions on the mind that are formed through repeated, emotionally charged experiences. These patterns shape how we think, feel, and react—often without conscious awareness.Some samskaras serve us. Others keep us stuck.Katie explains how these patterns can show up in everyday life, especially in emotional reactions and relationships—even when we know we want to respond differently.This episode moves beyond awareness and into the next step:How do we actually begin to release these patterns?Katie explores:how samskaras are formed and reinforced over timewhy patterns feel automatic and out of our controlthe connection between emotional triggers and conditioned responseswhy breaking patterns requires awareness, willingness, and repetitionhow discomfort is part of the process of changethe importance of self-compassion instead of shame and blameShe also shares a personal example of how quickly an old pattern can take over—and how the real work often happens after the moment, through reflection and repair.

What if the reason you feel stuck… isn't because something is wrong with you, but because different parts of you are pulling in different directions? We all know that feeling: one part of you wants to follow through, while another part resists. And often, one side takes over… leaving you with regret or confusion afterward. In this episode, Dr. Alison is joined by IFS therapist and best-selling author Jenna Riemersma to explore what's really happening beneath that inner conflict and how to respond differently. Because the goal isn't to fight those parts of you. It's to understand them. Together, they walk through Jenna's simple, practical framework that helps you move toward yourself with curiosity and compassion instead of shame or control. You'll explore: Why the parts of you that frustrate you most may be trying to help What keeps you stuck in the same inner battles again and again The surprising shift that can calm the conflict inside How to know when to share what's happening inside you—and when it's wiser to protect yourself What real relief can look like when you stop fighting yourself If you've ever felt stuck in cycles of overthinking, self-criticism, or reacting in ways you later regret, this conversation will help you understand why and what to do in the moment.

In this episode, I sit down with Tim O'Connor—golf coach, author of Getting Unstuck, and one of the most refreshing voices in golf psychology—to unpack why so many golfers stay trapped in the same frustrating cycles year after year. Tim explains why being "stuck" has less to do with mechanics and more to do with unconscious patterns, repetitive thinking, fear-based control, and a disconnect from the physical experience of playing golf. We also explore surrender, awareness, gratitude, adaptability, and why the golfers who improve fastest are often the ones who stop trying so hard. In this episode, you'll learn: What being "stuck" actually feels like for golfers Why fixing your swing mid-round keeps you trapped How awareness is the first step to lasting change Why golfers overthink because they're disconnected from feel How to stop bringing swing thoughts to the course Why surrender creates more control than forcing outcomes How gratitude can instantly improve your relationship with golf If you've ever chased swing tips mid-round, sabotaged a great start, overthought every shot, or felt like your scores no longer reflect your ability, this conversation will hit home.

Thinking more often creates worse golf, not better golf. Feel is frequently the missing link in performance. Great golf requires adaptability, not perfection. Gratitude brings you back to the present moment. Key Quotes: "You cannot change what you are not aware of." "Most golfers have never actually felt their swing because they're trapped in their head." "The game is about hitting shots—not building the perfect swing." "The more you try to control everything, the less free you are to perform." "Your suffering in golf often comes from wanting it too badly."

She got out, rebuilt from nothing, and now runs a movement helping others do the same.   Dr. Ruben West saw something in Brenda nobody else did and gave her a shot on stage before she even had her footing back. Dr. Toby Potter lost everything in 2008, rebuilt bigger, and now helps others break the chains their past put on them.   Together they break down why most people stay stuck, why behavior never changes without belief, and why the prison most people live in has nothing to do with bars and everything to do with their own mind.    Whether you're stuck, starting over, or just tired of playing small, this one's for you. The journey to becoming the better version of yourself starts here.

Why do so many writers tell themselves they 'just don't have time' – and what's really going on underneath that? In this episode, Emma Strangwayes-Booth talks about the stories she told herself about not having enough time to write and how they were tied up with self-doubt, fear of failure, and the pressure to write in the 'right' way. Emma shares how a solo writing retreat and the confidence boost of a pitch party helped her break out of that spiral and build momentum again. Along the way, we talk about creative routines, the value of community, and what it really takes to get unstuck. All our guests this season are members of The History Quill.

In business, there are seasons when everything seems to flow effortlessly. Ideas land. Clients say yes. Momentum builds. And then there are the other seasons. The ones where you feel like you're doing all the things… yet somehow getting nowhere. If you've ever found yourself staring at your laptop, wondering whether you've forgotten how to run your business, you're not alone. In this episode of the HerBusiness Podcast, Suzi Dafnis explores the very real cycles that most business owners experience — from soaring growth to frustrating plateaus — and why those slower seasons might actually be laying the groundwork for your next leap forward. You'll also hear how to tell the difference between a temporary hard week and deeper burnout, why doing less isn't always the solution, and how to recognise when your business model may no longer be aligned with who you've become as a leader. Because often when things feel stuck, it's a sign of a transition. And transition is where meaningful growth begins. In This Episode You'll Discover: Why it's normal for businesses to move through cycles of momentum and stagnation What it really means when you feel like you're "getting nowhere" The key difference between a tough week and true burnout How misalignment in your business model can lead to exhaustion Why doing less isn't always the answer to burnout How to recognise the work that creates energy versus the work that drains you The difference between maintenance work and momentum work A powerful question to ask when you feel overwhelmed in your business How identity shifts influence the way you lead your next chapter A Few Questions to Reflect On As you listen, you might like to ask yourself: Where am I constantly forcing myself in my business? If I were building this business from scratch today, would I design it the same way? What work consistently gives me energy? What work drains me every time? What is the one thing that would make everything else easier right now? Often, clarity doesn't come from doing more. It comes from creating space to think.

If you've ever felt stuck despite having experience, skills, and a plan, the problem usually isn't effort. Most developers and technical leaders don't stall because they're lazy or unmotivated—they stall because their beliefs, motivation, and execution are misaligned. A strong getting unstuck isn't about pushing harder. It's about creating alignment so forward momentum becomes sustainable instead of exhausting. When progress slows, people often default to adding more tools, tighter schedules, or bigger goals. But without clarity underneath, those fixes rarely stick. Real movement starts when you trust the process, understand what's driving you, and design actions that actually fit how you work. About Kim Miller-Hershon Kim Miller-Hershon is an international business coach, corporate trainer, and speaker who helps leaders and entrepreneurs get unstuck by thinking differently and taking action faster. She works with executives and business owners on essential leadership skills, including communication, management, and time management—always with a focus on authenticity. Kim also hosts the Unconventional Wisdom About Conventional Wisdom podcast, where clichés are challenged, and fresh thinking takes center stage. Follow Kim on Instagram, LinkedIn, and her website. Getting unstuck starts with trust and clarity Before any plan can work, trust has to exist—trust in the process, trust in support systems, and trust in your ability to navigate discomfort. Growth almost always involves friction. If everything feels comfortable, you're probably not changing anything meaningful. A healthy getting unstuck doesn't avoid discomfort; it reframes it. Feeling uneasy doesn't mean you're failing—it often means you're stretching. That shift alone can prevent the avoidance and second-guessing that quietly derail progress. Just as important is clarity. Vague intentions create fragile momentum. When goals are fuzzy, decisions become reactive instead of intentional, and it's easy to drift back into familiar patterns. Getting unstuck requires a "juicy why." Motivation doesn't come from ambition alone. It comes from having a reason that's compelling enough to carry you through the parts of the work you don't enjoy. Your "why" needs to be clear, personal, and vivid—not aspirational fluff. Getting unstuck depends on this kind of clarity. When your reason for moving forward is strong, you don't need constant external motivation. You have something internal to anchor to when energy dips or obstacles show up. The "Juicy Why" Check If your goal doesn't energize you, it won't sustain you Make your why specific enough that it pulls you forward during hard moments Getting unstuck fails when plans ignore behavior Many solid plans fail because they assume ideal behavior. They don't account for procrastination, avoidance, or the realities of working with other people. A perfect strategy that ignores how you actually operate won't survive contact with deadlines and dependencies. A practical getting unstuck adapts plans to real behavior. That means designing systems that work even when motivation drops, interruptions happen, or other people don't deliver on time. Progress comes from plans that flex—not plans that look good on paper. Getting unstuck when scaling your role One of the hardest moments in growth happens when success requires letting go of work you're good at—or even love doing. For developers and technical leaders, staying close to execution feels productive, but it can quietly cap growth. Getting unstuck recognizes that scaling isn't about abandoning strengths. It's about repositioning them so others can step in, teams can grow, and the organization isn't dependent on a single person. Letting go isn't failure—it's evolution. Getting unstuck depends on psychological safety Momentum collapses when mistakes feel personal. Progress accelerates when mistakes are treated as information. Getting unstuck replaces self-judgment with curiosity. Instead of asking "Why did I mess this up?", the better question is "What broke, and what does this tell me?" That shift turns setbacks into inputs for better systems rather than reasons to stop. This is especially critical under pressure, where missed expectations often trigger blame instead of learning. Curiosity Over Failure Debrief outcomes without assigning blame Keep what worked, fix what didn't, and move forward Getting unstuck for time management under pressure Deadlines don't fail—systems do. When work depends on other people, last-minute chaos usually comes from missing contingencies, not poor intent. A getting unstuck plan for reality, not best-case scenarios. That means identifying dependencies early, building backup paths, and scripting uncomfortable follow-ups ahead of time. When conversations are planned, avoidance drops and execution improves. Plan B + Script It Define fallback options when others don't deliver Script follow-ups so discomfort doesn't delay action Conclusion Getting unstuck isn't about doing more—it's about doing what aligns. When beliefs, motivation, and execution reinforce each other, progress becomes repeatable instead of fragile. If you're ready to stop circling the same problems and start moving forward with intention, alignment is the place to start. Stay Connected: Join the Developreneur Community

In this Resilience Unravelled episode, Alexis Sikorsky, a Swiss entrepreneur based in London, recounts building an internet café/ISP in Senegal, fleeing the country with only a suitcase, then returning to Geneva to grow a banking software and internet development business to about $10–11M revenue before the 2008 financial crisis cut 75% of revenue in a day. After years of survival, he rebuilt to breakeven and sold to private equity on an 11x EBITDA deal with 85% cash and 15% earnout, emphasising that PE deals involve uneven information and founders should do diligence on acquirers by speaking to prior CEOs. He discusses why most people shouldn't be entrepreneurs, differentiates “having a job” from owning a company, advises seeking free mentors who've done what you're doing, warns about conflicts with PE-paid advisors and small-company investment banks, explains when to avoid investment unless necessary, and describes his book Cashing Out and his initiative Night Scale to help firms stuck at $5–50M revenue using mission-based, part-time C-level expertise.00:00 Welcome 00:43 From Geneva to Dakkar02:03 Building and Losing It All03:20 Private Equity Exit Playbook06:24 Chairman Life and Retirement09:23 Who Should Be Entrepreneur11:57 Mentors and Real Advice16:14 Due Diligence on Buyers21:30 Investment vs Exit Decisions24:00 Why I Wrote Cashing Out26:05 Night Scale and Growth Plateaus27:49 Social Media Reality Check28:47 Final Thoughts and GoodbyeYou can contact us at info@qedod.comResources can be found online or link to our website https://resilienceunravelled.com

Life doesn't slow down just because we feel overwhelmed — and yet so many of us are quietly waiting for the next milestone to finally feel happy.In round two with Dr. Rachel Goldman, we talk about her upcoming book When Life Happens (out April 7) and what it actually means to reclaim your joy in the middle of uncertainty — not after you move cities, land the job, find the partner, or “figure it all out.”We unpack decision fatigue, the pressure to have life mapped out by a certain age, and the trap of “I'll be happy when…” Dr. Rachel shares the CBT tools she uses with clients to help them get unstuck — starting with acceptance, coming back to your why, and making small, intentional tweaks that build momentum. Because becoming happier isn't about a dramatic life overhaul — it's about learning how to work with your thoughts instead of against them.We also dive into one of my favorite questions: how to tell the difference between anxiety and intuition — and how slowing down might be the most radical act of self-trust.If you've been craving clarity, feeling restless, or wondering whether you need to change everything to feel better — this conversation is your reminder that joy is something you can practice, not just achieve.You can also check out our previous episode here

George Saunders is the bestselling, award-winning author of Lincoln in the Bardo, Tenth of December, and many other books. His new novel, Vigil, tells the story of a woman who died in 1976 and has spent the decades since comforting the dying—until she encounters a former oil executive responsible for early climate change denial. In this conversation, Dan and George talk about: Why George keeps writing about ghosts and the afterlife (hint: it's not just about mortality dread) The lavish empathy at the heart of Vigil—and whether we should extend that empathy even to people doing civilizational damage What George calls "warm metacognition"—the practice of dropping back out of your thought loops to examine what kind of goggles you're wearing How fiction can turn your mind into a "reconsideration machine" (and why that matters in real life) The difference between kindness and niceness George's relationship with death anxiety, which he's had since childhood and which has only intensified with age What George has learned about listening from teaching and hosting his Substack, Story Club Why the older he gets, the more important it is to stretch himself creatively His advice for dealing with stuckness (in writing and in life): curiosity over self-accusation George's new novel Vigil is out January 27th from Random House. Check out his Substack, Story Club, where he discusses classic short stories with an incredibly thoughtful community.   Related Episodes: George Saunders on "Holy Befuddlement" and How to Be Less of a "Turd"   Get the 10% with Dan Harris app here Sign up for Dan's free newsletter here Follow Dan on social: Instagram, TikTok Subscribe to our YouTube Channel   To advertise on the show, contact sales@advertisecast.com or visit https://advertising.libsyn.com/10HappierwithDanHarris

What happens when working harder stops working? In this episode of Wine After Work, Bryce sits down with Ritu G. Mehrish — former corporate executive, leadership advisor, and author of Leader's Block and Rewrite the Rules. After leading global teams across five continents and managing multi-million-dollar business lines, Ritu reached a pivotal moment many high-performing leaders quietly face: the strategies that once worked… no longer did. That turning point became the foundation of her work today — helping leaders navigate burnout, loss of clarity, confidence dips, and high-stakes transitions that don't show up on performance reviews. This is a grounded, honest conversation about what it really takes to recover, reset, and lead forward when the path isn't clear. In This Episode, We Discuss: Why high performers often feel "stuck" — even when they're successful on paper The hidden leadership moments no one prepares you for (burnout, self-doubt, transition missteps) Ritu's "Critical Quarter" framework for navigating the first 90 days of leadership change How perception-based stakeholder feedback can create momentum instead of fear The invisible cultural dynamics impacting Asian women leaders — and what leaders can learn from that research How to rewrite the rules when your old playbook no longer fits Who This Episode Is For: Leaders navigating change, transition, or burnout Women questioning visibility, confidence, or next-level growth Executives who want clarity without clichés   https://www.ritumehrish.com/ Linkedin

The middle market. Booked, but not confident. Busy, but capped. Improving, but still stuck. In this episode, I finally show you the system that changed everything for me. Not tactics. Not hacks. A structure that helped me see my business clearly, stop guessing, and start making decisions that actually moved the needle. This is the same system I built and used last year as I moved out of the middle market and generated over $400,000 in bookings. It showed me why better work alone wasn't fixing it, where my business was leaking energy, and what actually deserved my focus. If you've felt close but never quite breaking through, this episode will help you see why. I'm also inviting you to a free live training called Getting Unstuck from the Middle Market, where I'll walk you through this framework live and help you identify what's actually holding your business back and what to focus on next.
