A Fine Balance: a podcast that explores how to find a work-life balance that works for you
They say that there are only two sure things in life: death and taxes.So given that death, and coming to terms with loss, is something that we will all encounter at some point in our lives, thinking about the interplay between bereavement and work-life balance seems like an essential, albeit difficult, thing to talk about.In this solo episode of "A Fine Balance:Work-Life Balance Confessions", I broach the subject in a stripped back, simple way, different to my usual “Work, Life, Balance Lessons” format. Because what can we really learn about finding balance when you're grieving? Grief doesn't come with a lesson plan, or a neat and tidy formula or check list.Instead, I share examples of podcast conversations where grief has surfaced. And I let them speak for themselves. The examples aren't intended to advise; they're not meant to fix anything. They're just reminders that when we talk about balance, sometimes that means making space for grief too.RELATED EPISODES: On Legacy, Purpose and Finding Work-Life Balance When You're Working as a Politician and Elected Official - Johnson Situ's Story: https://open.spotify.com/episode/3v2kQZRhZxJK5MfqaXj9lO?si=0f00ooRkQ7OFuoONbBtLhAOn Finding Balance in Grief, Being a High-Achiever, and Overcoming Imposter Syndrome - Katie Ford's Story: https://open.spotify.com/episode/3Fb3ZcRFWigo7iOLUN4vss?si=HjjfQG37StO3Wyg7h6D1sQOn Finding Balance When You Want To "Have It All", Teamwork, and Avoiding Stress: Ruth Todd CBE's Story: https://open.spotify.com/episode/3Fb3ZcRFWigo7iOLUN4vss?si=HjjfQG37StO3Wyg7h6D1sQOn Housekeeping, Middle-Age, and Finding Balance When Your Marriage Ends - Helen Hayward's Story: https://open.spotify.com/episode/2gGcu3qlJJALr4V4ulcguv?si=8PbZt8ZYQaGiHYyoC7AEMwThe Pursuit of Balance When You're Living Through War - Featuring Dr Ian Moran: https://open.spotify.com/episode/5t5hbVjCBY5b6Ng8qSEvOo?si=bb4LQ0LXTpOpOyP7E4Nkpw

Why do high achievers struggle to celebrate their wins? We excel at achievement but fail at self-acknowledgment.At the core of this challenge lies your brain's evolutionary wiring. Your neural pathways are designed to scan for problems rather than celebrate wins – a survival mechanism that once protected our ancestors but now creates a perpetual state of "never enough" for ambitious individuals. When I work with high-achieving clients, they consistently struggle with the simple task of identifying a single weekly win, not because they haven't made progress, but because their definition of success has become dangerously narrow.Many of us received praise and validation primarily when we succeeded, creating a subconscious pattern where external achievements become the only acceptable form of success. This creates a dangerous trap: defining success from the outside in rather than from the inside out. True fulfillment comes from acknowledging who you're becoming in the journey, not just checking off accomplishments. Like a pilot making small navigational adjustments, the one-degree shifts in how you recognize progress can dramatically change your destination.The solution begins with a simple but powerful practice: documenting one action daily that moved you forward, regardless of the outcome. This rewires your brain to value the journey as much as the destination. Ready to break this cycle?

Let's be real: some of us aren't just experiencing burnout—we're perfecting it. Overachieving our way into exhaustion. Piling on responsibilities like it's an Olympic sport. And believing that if we just get it right enough, peace and happiness will magically follow. In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Tiffany Moon, a board-certified anesthesiologist, CEO, speaker, entrepreneur, wine and candle maker (yes, really), and reality TV alum—basically a walking resume of overachievement. But she's also someone who knows what it feels like to chase perfection at the expense of joy—and how to break free from it. Her book, Joy Prescriptions, explores the cost of perfectionism and what it really takes to reclaim your happiness. Together, we're talking burnout, boundaries, high-achieving pressure, and how to stop proving your worth through productivity. In This Episode, We Cover: ✅ What perfectionist burnout really looks like (and why it's so sneaky) ✅ The hidden cost of tying your identity to achievement ✅ Why rest is not a reward—it's a requirement ✅ Practical ways to redefine success without burning out If you're tired of proving, pushing, or performing your way to “enough”—this one's for you.

I walked away from my conversation with Tiffany Simms grinning ear‑to‑ear—and a little convicted. We peeled back the glossy myth of “work‑life balance” and admitted what most high achievers won't say out loud: the scales will never sit perfectly level. Instead, Tiffany's idea of harmony hit me like a power chord. When I define what healthy feels like in my body, how I want my relationships to sound, and the way money should support—not suffocate—those rhythms, I'm living the Foundation → Framework → Manifestation flow of my Atomic Triad. Purpose becomes the metronome, and suddenly the day's small notes—barefoot walks in the yard, a cup of coffee delivered to Gina, a silly dance break at 2 p.m.—are the real chart‑toppers.That shift also exposes ego's sneaky grip. I confessed my 140‑hour workweeks (yes, a sleeping‑bag‑under‑the‑desk season) and how the accolades masked the price my family paid. Tiffany called out the “people‑pleasing” masquerade for what it is—manipulation dressed as service—and reminded me that Legacy is built on tiny, un‑Instagrammable deposits of honor. Whether it's stashing $10 in a stranger's diaper aisle or leaving a handwritten card, generosity only counts when the left hand lets the right hand forget. My takeaway? Design life on purpose, give on purpose, rest on purpose—and watch the harmony swell.Connect with Tiffany:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thetiffanysimmsInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thetiffanysimms/remember, message TIME to Tiffany for her guide!Takeaways - Harmony beats balance; let priorities ebb and flow intentionally. - Define success with feelings, not numbers on a scale. - Gratitude journaling grounds even the toughest days. - Tiny daily gestures out‑love grand occasional ones. - Ego craves trophies; purpose values presence. - Generosity without credit multiplies impact. - Schedule family like board meetings—non‑negotiable.#LifeBalance #PurposeDriven #ThirdPower #HarmonyOverHustle #AtomicTriad #GratitudeInActionReady to sketch your own “out‑of‑balance on purpose” roadmap?

Porn addiction among high-performing men is more common—and more misunderstood—than most people realize. In this eye-opening episode of the Intimate Marriage podcast, Dr. Alexandra Stockwell welcomes back expert Roland Cochrun to discuss his new book, 'The High Achiever's Guide to Sex Addiction Recovery'. Known for his groundbreaking insights into sex and porn addiction, Roland breaks down the crucial difference between substance and process addiction—where individuals become hooked not on external substances but on internal thought patterns and behaviors. Together, Dr. Alexandra and Roland explore why high achievers are especially vulnerable to these compulsions, how porn addiction impacts relationships, and why many of these behaviors are deeply misunderstood. Roland offers powerful guidance for healing, challenges societal norms around sex and desire, and encourages a new narrative of recovery, responsibility, and reconnection. Also in this episode: What Process Addiction Is: Being hooked on mental patterns and habits, not substances like drugs or alcohol. How It Affects Relationships: A partner's porn addiction can feel like betrayal and cause emotional pain. Challenging Norms: Society's views on sex and porn aren't always healthy—it's important to question them.

Ever felt paralyzed by your to-do list or daunted by the massive gap between your current reality and your ambitious goals? That overwhelming sensation isn't just uncomfortable—it's your brain's protective mechanism kicking into high gear, convinced you lack what it takes to succeed.As a two-time burnout survivor, I've discovered that overwhelm operates on a fascinating psychological loop. Your brain perceives a threat (too many tasks, too little time, too big a goal), triggers a stress response, and then creates a compelling narrative: "If I can't handle this, I'm failing. If I'm failing, I'll be rejected." This primal fear of tribal rejection is what transforms healthy challenge into debilitating overwhelm that leads to procrastination and self-sabotage.The breakthrough comes when we question our underlying beliefs about what success requires. Most of us operate under assumed "truths" that aren't true at all. Try this powerful five-minute exercise: list everything you believe you must do to be successful, then challenge each item by asking, "Is this 100% true? Are there successful people who don't do this?" By dismantling these false requirements, overwhelm begins to dissolve immediately as your perception shifts from "impossible" to "possible." This simple practice makes the invisible visible, freeing you to move forward with clarity instead of fear.Ready to break free from overwhelm for good? Try this exercise today and share your insights with me on Instagram @Dr.Reanamulcahy .

What happens when the outside world can't fix what's aching inside?In this episode, Pam — a midlife professional with a “wonderful life” — shares her awakening journey from high-functioning discomfort to embodied presence.After years of success, productivity, and emotional self-reliance, Pam began to sense something was off. It wasn't burnout. It wasn't crisis. It was a quiet but persistent dis-ease. A cousin's powerful transformation with 5-MeO-DMT sparked her curiosity, and a series of heart-opening medicines slowly helped her loosen the grip of control and allow herself to feel.What followed was a deep unraveling of old patterns, a discovery of inner safety, and a shift from external validation to internal regulation.Pam's story is an invitation for anyone who's spent their life doing it all “right” — and still feels like something's missing.In This Episode, We Explore:Pam's journey from heart openers to psychedelics — and why she needed to start slowHow perfectionism, people-pleasing, and over-functioning masked her deeper woundsWhat happened when she experienced “being” for the first time in her lifeThe moment she realized her nervous system had been outsourcing safety for decadesWhy slow, supported healing allowed her to meet herself with compassionHow the Enfold experience helped her come home to the truth already within
I recently discovered that my left side is perpetually stiff—thank you, gym sessions—and my massage therapist dropped a truth bomb: “Tension is a byproduct of weakness.” Boom. It hit me like a kettlebell to the forehead. Whether we're limber or locked up physically, the same applies to our minds. When I stride into a meeting armed with every fact and figure, I'm as relaxed as a yogi in savasana. But step outside that comfort zone—say, pitching a new idea to stakeholders—and tension creeps in because my mental muscles aren't as buff as they could be. This isn't about staying in the safe zone; it's about recognizing tension as a signal to flex those weaker areas—mind and body alike—and plan for growth.I'm applying that mindset to my speaking business, where I'm still ironing out messaging and lead-gen kinks. Ignorance is weakness, plain and simple, and it shows up as stress when I don't know the next best step. By leaning on my Atomic Triad—mind, body, spirit—I'm carving out time for learning (mind), movement (body), and reflection (spirit). I give myself grace when tension rises, knowing it's part of the process and a sign that I'm pushing boundaries. After all, one of my Core Values is Purpose-Driven Growth: I'm committed to evolving in every arena of life without sacrificing what matters most.Takeaways:- Tension signals a weakness that needs targeted strengthening.- Preparedness in work reduces stress and boosts confidence.- Ignorance breeds tension—seek knowledge to close the gap.- Plan for discomfort when stretching beyond your comfort zone.- Give yourself grace: recovery is as vital as the effort.- Leverage mind, body, spirit for balanced, sustainable growth.- Recognize tension as progress, not a setback.#LifeBalance #PurposeDriven #ThirdPower #MindBodySpirit #HighAchieverReady to turn tension into triumph? Discover how the High Achiever's Blueprint to Success Without Sacrifice equips you with the exact framework—mindset mastery, strategic planning, and balanced execution—to strengthen your weakest links.

In our fast-paced world, many high-achieving women find themselves caught in the cycle of suppressing emotions to maintain a facade of perfection. While everything might seem picture-perfect on the outside, the hidden cost of unexpressed emotions can take a toll on both mental and physical well-being. By embracing and processing these emotions, we can unlock a new level of personal and professional growth. Key takeaways: Physical Impact: Suppressed emotions can lead to physical symptoms like headaches and fatigue. Addressing these emotions can improve overall well-being. Strength in Feeling: Embracing emotions is a sign of strength, not weakness. It enhances resilience and authentic leadership. Empowerment Through Release: Releasing emotional burdens frees up energy for clarity and creativity, leading to a more fulfilling life.

Krisstina Wise, a real estate mogul, millionaire coach, and best-selling author, teaches entrepreneurs to build 7-figure businesses and net worth while achieving financial freedom without sacrificing health or happiness. Top 3 Value Bombs 1. Money and wealth is not created around earnings and how much money you make but how you manage the cash flow of your life. 2. The whole goal of life is to be able to have our health and wellness, vitality, relationships and love and underwriting the cost of living the life we want by virtue of how we make our money. 3. Spend less than you make, invest in a passive type of investment opportunities. Do that for a long period of time and then you will wake up financially free and happy.

Confidence is not the reward waiting at the finish line of achievement—it's the fuel that propels you toward your goals. In this eye-opening exploration of our relationship with self-assurance, I dismantle the dangerous myth that confidence arrives after success, credentials, or external validation.Drawing from both personal experience and insights from working with high-achievers, I reveal how my own confidence would vanish when surrounded by seven-figure entrepreneurs despite having a doctorate and multiple certifications. This phenomenon exposes the true nature of confidence: it's not about what you've accomplished, but where you place your attention. When we fixate on comparing ourselves to others, we create a moving target that keeps confidence perpetually out of reach.The transformative insight here is that you already possess everything required for genuine confidence. Through brain-based tools and strategic attention redirection, you can neutralize the mental blocks and negative thought loops that trigger confidence loss. This isn't just about feeling better—it fundamentally changes how you show up for opportunities, allowing you to stand in your power without armor against rejection or criticism. The result? Accelerated success with less effort and struggle.Ready to break free from the confidence myth and access the self-assurance already within you? The Rewired to Thrive program offers a systematic approach to reprogramming these limiting patterns. Visit my www.reanamulcahy.com to join the priority list. Remember, your capacity for confidence isn't waiting on your next achievement—it's waiting on your next thought.Have a question that you want answered on the show?

Have you ever found yourself on a relentless quest for success? You know, that constant push to achieve more, have more, and do more? But amidst all this striving, have you paused to wonder, "What does success truly mean for me?" In our latest episode, we unpack the idea of success and explore whether it's something you perpetually chase or can actually experience right now. I'm thrilled to have the incredible Melonie Taylor join us. Melonie is the Chief Energy Officer of Virtual Angels by Success on Purpose and a success mentor for burnt out, empathetic high achievers. With her background in nursing and personal experiences of burnout, anxiety, and depression, Melonie has transformed her life by learning to balance achievement with self-love. She's here to share her journey and insights on redefining success in your life. Here's what you'll discover in this episode: Why your idea of success might be setting you on a path to burnout—and how Melonie realized she needed to change her own path. What are the crucial steps Melonie took to move from feeling unfulfilled despite her achievements to living a life abundant with purpose and joy. How the simple act of breathing can help you access a calmer state of being, rewiring your nervous system for a more balanced life. What's the secret to distinguishing between true intuition and those sneaky ideas that might actually be holding you back? Why writing your own eulogy could be the unexpected exercise that brings clarity to your life's true priorities. Don't miss out on Melonie's inspiring story and practical tips that could guide you to a fuller, more satisfying version of success. Tune in to challenge your own perceptions and take a step towards fulfilling your true purpose today. About our guest: Melonie Taylor is the Chief Energy Officer of Virtual Angels by Success on Purpose and a Success Mentor for burnt-out, empathic high achievers struggling with anxiety and depression. She helps them rewire their nervous systems for abundance and joy. Her journey began with a profound question: “What is the purpose of life?” While working as a palliative care nurse for 18 years, supporting people in their final moments, Melonie found herself battling depression, anxiety, and a deep sense of unfulfillment. Though she was making a difference for others, she didn't know how to change her own life. Ignoring the universe's warning signs—stress, burnout, and emptiness—led to a breaking point. A fractured wrist became the catalyst for surrendering her ego to her Higher Self. This turning point ignited a journey of self-love, teaching her to embrace being instead of just doing. Now, through Virtual Angels and Success on Purpose Mentoring, Melonie is dedicated to preventing and healing disease by guiding others to rediscover joy and purpose. She empowers high achievers to shift from burnout to balance, creating lives filled with meaning, fulfillment, and true success.

Send us a textIn the latest episode of the Lead with Levity podcast, Dr. Heather Walker sits down with Dr. Jenny Powers, a chemical engineer turned author, to discuss the pressures of high achievement and how to find true balance in life.The Myth of Having It AllDr. Powers shares her deeply personal journey of chasing success—first as an athlete, then as a scholar—only to realize that relentless striving often leads to burnout rather than fulfillment. Her story challenges the belief that we must “do it all” to be worthy.Key Takeaways from the Conversation:Achievement vs. Well-Being – Society glorifies overachievement, but constant striving can disconnect us from what truly matters.Recognizing the Disconnect – Many struggle because modern life ignores fundamental human needs like rest, social connection, and self-reflection.Small Steps to Change – Transformation isn't about drastic leaps but making intentional choices that align with personal values.Building a Support System – Community, spirituality, and creative outlets—like writing—help redefine purpose and fulfillment.Redefining Success – True success isn't about meeting external expectations but about creating a life that feels meaningful and sustainable.A New Path ForwardDr. Powers' journey illustrates that stepping away from the traditional definition of success can lead to a more fulfilling and authentic life. By weaving in self-care, creativity, and connection, anyone can break free from the high achiever's trap.Want to hear more from Dr. Jenny Powers?Follow her work and explore her co-authored book, On the Origin of BeingInstagram: @ontheoriginofbeingTune into Lead with Levityfor this powerful conversation and start creating a life that truly aligns with you!Support the showDid you have any lightbulb moments while listening?

How do you turn an idea into lasting thought leadership? Dr. Ruth Gotian has done just that—translating academic research on high achievers into actionable insights that help individuals and organizations thrive. In this episode, we explore the power of mentorship, the resilience of high achievers, and the relentless pursuit of excellence. Ruth shares stories of Olympic champions, astronauts, and Nobel laureates who refused to settle for mediocrity. Like Dr. Peggy Whitson, who applied to NASA for a decade before becoming the agency's chief astronaut. Or the Olympian already planning his next win on the flight home. Ruth knows success isn't a talent—it's a learned skill. She shares how to identify your superpowers, leverage them, and plant ambition like a seed that grows into unstoppable drive. She also reveals her own journey of thought leadership—from struggling with the first chapter of The Success Factor to writing books, speaking globally, and democratizing knowledge in every format possible. Her latest book, The Financial Times Guide to Mentoring: A Complete Guide to Effective Mentoring (The FT Guides), co-authored with Andy Lopata, was named Runner-Up for Leadership Book of the Year (The Leadership Awards 2024). Whether you're looking to elevate your own success or help others rise, Ruth's insights will change the way you think about achievement. Three Key Takeaways: • Success is a Learned Skill, Not Just Talent – High achievers aren't born extraordinary; they develop habits, resilience, and a relentless pursuit of growth. Whether it's Olympians, astronauts, or Nobel laureates, they all follow a process to success that anyone can adopt. • Mentorship is a Game-Changer – The right mentors can push you further than you ever imagined. Surround yourself with people who believe in you more than you believe in yourself, ask the tough questions, and challenge you to think bigger. (The Financial Times Guide to Mentoring explores this in depth.) • Persistence Separates the Good from the Great – Dr. Peggy Whitson applied to be an astronaut for 10 years before finally being accepted—then went on to become NASA's Chief Astronaut. The difference between those who succeed and those who don't? They refuse to give up. Want to know if you are a High Achiever? Take this 2 minute assessment to find out.
In episode 79 of the podcast, we will explore the high achiever's baseline effect and the neuroscience behind why high performers struggle to rest (and why burnout ensues). We'll break down the trap of tying self-worth to productivity, how to rewire the subconscious belief that rest is unproductive, and the shift from identifying as a "hard worker" to an "effective thinker."Of course, there will be a Practice What You Podcast segment highlighting one actionable step from the episode to integrate into your week for lasting change, complete with supportive prompts and mindset shifts!Nerd Alert- The Neuroscience of Why High Achievers Struggle to Rest Visual Learners - Watch on Youtube!__Be sure to follow my Instagram @briannadiorio for all the Brianna Approved educational content!
