In this conversation, Mardi Winder-Adams welcomes Kate Kripke, a licensed clinical social worker and PMH-C, to talk about what it's really like for high-achieving moms who find themselves facing divorce while trying to keep everything else on track. Kate speaks from both professional expertise and personal experience, sharing how her own upbringing, her parents' divorce, and her struggles with anxiety and post-partum challenges shaped her commitment to supporting mothers and families navigating big transitions.Kate sheds light on the silent pressure so many women feel to perform as the best mom, partner, employee, and more. She points out how this constant push can make it hard for women to slow down, check in with their own feelings, and actually allow space for emotion, particularly during a divorce. Rather than focusing solely on “doing,” Kate encourages moms to pay attention to “how” they're experiencing emotions, something she's learned makes all the difference in both adult and child mental health.Mardi and Kate talk about how moms often fear their children's difficult emotions during divorce, wanting to protect them from sadness or anger. Kate reassures listeners that it's not only normal for kids to feel upset, but that moving through those feelings is vital. She emphasizes that being steady and supportive, even if you don't have all the answers, helps kids build resilience and feel secure through change. She also challenges the idea of labeling a marriage as “failed,” highlighting that sometimes relationships simply run their course, and it doesn't need to be seen as a disaster.Throughout the episode, Kate shares practical thoughts on how parents can create small moments of connection and security, even when families are splitting time between homes. She reminds listeners that kids don't need perfection, but rather a steady presence who's willing to listen and be real. To support moms further, Kate offers her “Calm Mama Reset,” a 21-day guide full of realistic, bite-sized strategies for anyone looking to regain some calm and steadiness during stressful times. About the Guest:Kate Kripke, LCSW, PMH-C, helps high-achieving women break free from emotional overwhelm, guilt, and burnout in motherhood. As a maternal mental health expert and transformative coach, she guides mothers in shifting old patterns, regulating their emotions, and reconnecting with their intuition—so they can feel calm, confident, and in control while balancing both career and motherhood.

We all have them—the nagging, unfinished tasks that have been sitting on our list for months, sometimes years. They weigh us down, drain our energy, and quietly whisper that we're falling behind. For me, it was finally starting Invisalign after years of thinking, “I should do something about my teeth.” It's a year-long commitment, but the simple act of beginning has already lifted a huge mental load. In this episode of Tales from The Lane, I challenge you to choose your “one thing” and commit to tackling it this year. We'll explore why unfinished tasks drain our focus (hello, Zeigarnik Effect), how finally starting creates momentum, and why clearing that lingering to-do is often more powerful than adding something new to your plate. If you've been carrying around something you keep saying you'll do “someday,” this is your sign to make someday today.

In this solo episode of The Dream It, Do It Podcast, I'm sharing the 5 key components I believe every ambitious woman needs in order to feel truly fulfilled in her work and life. These are the pillars I see over and over again in my Corporate Leader Clarity Experience — the ones that shift women out of burnout and into clarity. We'll unpack: Why autonomy is non-negotiable for creative, strategic women How to reconnect with your purpose when the day-to-day feels like a grind The role of growth and how to keep evolving even at the top Why connection is the foundation for impact (and how to build it back) The overlooked value of enthusiasm and how to get your spark back This episode will help you audit where you are, get honest about what you want, and see the possibilities ahead when you stop settling and start aligning.
Feeling stuck is universal—whether you're at the top of your game or struggling to get momentum. Darren Hardy reminds us that the greatest threat isn't failure—it's settling into a place we don't belong and convincing ourselves it's “just the way it is.” The danger comes when you don't recognize it. Could you be caught in the trap right now? Get more personal mentoring from Darren each day. Go to DarrenDaily at http://darrendaily.com/join to learn more.

High achievers are great at chasing success, but often struggle to enjoy it. Harvard professor, bestselling author, and Atlantic columnist Arthur Brooks has spent decades studying what creates happiness, what undermines it, and how to build more of it into our lives. In his new book The Happiness Files, he shares science-based insights from his How to Build a Life column and his Harvard course “Leadership and Happiness.” Arthur reveals why achievement alone can leave you feeling empty, the “arrival fallacy” that traps strivers, and the three ingredients for lasting fulfillment—helping you shift from chasing happiness to building it.

Stressed About Money? The Hidden Trap for High Achievers & a Path to Peace with Joyce Marter "I make good money… so why am I still stressed?" If this thought keeps you up, you're not alone. Maybe you have a good career & nice home but you still worry about retirement, rising college costs, or just wanting to feel secure. Everyone assumes you've got it all figured out. Secretly, you're unsettled & wonder if it's enough. Licensed psychotherapist Joyce Marter understands. While building her successful practice, she was outwardly thriving, but privately suffering with anxiety. What she discovered: money stress often isn't about the numbers, it's rooted in inherited beliefs & old emotional patterns. Your Money Story Wasn't Your Choice The thoughts of “I should be further ahead” or “why is success so hard?” often come from generational experiences. If your family went through financial hardship, your nervous system might be wired for anxiety. As a child, you may have learned: money means danger. Common inherited money beliefs include: Working nonstop because “rest equals laziness” Thinking you must “suffer now to enjoy later” Feeling guilty for wanting more when you “should be grateful” Fearing investment because “money doesn't grow on trees” Financial anxiety isn't a character flaw—it's a learned survival response. Financial Freedom Isn't About More Money The truth: Your net worth is not your self-worth. “Our money situation is how we are. It's not who we are,” Joyce says. “Who we are is innate.” Your value doesn't depend on your bank account, debt, or choices. True financial self-care means healing emotional roots of stress & scarcity. Building Financial and Emotional Resilience Recovery is about navigating uncertainty without losing yourself. It's time to break old patterns & find peace. Episode Highlights Your relationship with money: [0:37] - Why your financial situation doesn't define your identity or self-worth [4:11] - How inherited money beliefs create anxiety in successful adults Shame and mental health: [6:06] - The hidden mental health crisis among high-earners: when financial stress becomes dangerous [10:25] - "I should be further ahead by now": Breaking the shame cycle around money Growth & Peace: [14:54] - Why growth requires letting go (even when it feels scary) [21:22] - Three mindfulness practices to reduce financial anxiety starting today [29:28] - The future of work: Why your unique gifts matter more than ever Powerful Quotes "Our money situation is how we are. It's not who we are. Who we are is innate, and whether we're going through turbulent times financially or not, that's separate from our worth." –Joyce Marter Resources Mentioned Joyce's website: https://www.joyce-marter.com Financial Mindset Fix digital course: https://www.joyce-marter.com/the-financial-mindset-fix-mental-health-for-financial-wealth/ Enter the Giveaway + Win Prizes!

We're always getting asked about how we manage our lives being entrepreneurs who also enjoy active social lives, exercise, and time for self care.While it's a lot to manage, we've found systems in each area of our lives that allow us to stay on top of work and personal tasks. From how we manage our adult tasks like appointments and social outings to work-related tasks like managing our to-do lists and meeting schedules, we broke it all down in today's episode.If you enjoyed this episode, please rate and review the podcast.

In this episode of Tales from The Lane, Kate takes a candid look at a growing trend: using self-care and boundaries as default reasons to opt out of opportunities, connection, and growth. While the movement to prevent burnout was born out of necessity—helping leaders, parents, and professionals stretched impossibly thin—somewhere along the way, it became a lifestyle brand. And now, more and more early-career professionals are declining every extra task, gig, or invitation in the name of “protecting their peace,” only to find themselves feeling disconnected and unfulfilled. Kate explores: Why self-care and boundaries matter (and where the movement started) How the pendulum has swung too far in the opposite direction How saying yes (even when it feels inconvenient) can build skills, networks, and community What the most fulfilled, high-achieving people do differently If you've been wondering how to balance protecting your time with showing up fully for your life and your community, this conversation will help you reframe what it means to be both intentional and engaged.

We're all well-aware of the stigma associated with men's mental health. Men are often told overtly or covertly to be just be quiet, do your job, and get your work done. And, while there is certainly some validity to us getting the job done when people are relying on us, it's also valid to consider the mental and emotional battles we often fight as men. Today, I am joined by retired Green Beret, Nick O'Kelly to talk about his time in service the mental and emotional anguish he faced, and what he's done to overcome the challenges of anxiety, depression, and even suicidal ideation. We talk about how a man begins to confront these issues, finding the balance between bearing down and getting the help we need, how to find teams and avenues of support without feeling weak, and how to confront the stigma (even though we all deal with it) of men's mental health SHOW HIGHLIGHTS 00:00 - Men's Mental Health Stigma 01:05 - Balancing Pride and Duty 03:12 - Debating Vulnerability 04:27 - Military Career Transitions 06:36 - Family Dynamics and Decisions 09:22 - Managing Career Expectations 11:36 - Spousal Support and Sacrifice 14:36 - Masculine and Feminine Dynamics 18:37 - Expectation Management Challenges 21:23 - Trust in Relationships 25:16 - Decision-Making Struggles 28:26 - Imposter Syndrome in Financial Planning 31:58 - Onset of Mental Health Struggles 37:55 - Consequences of Seeking Help 43:29 - Personal Anxiety Experience 47:32 - Spiritual and Physiological Factors 52:29 - High Achievers and Mental Health 54:16 - Connecting with Nick's Work Battle Planners: Pick yours up today!

You're crushing it: checking boxes, hitting milestones, maybe even growing a team or scaling your business. But if you're being honest… you don't really feel it. The joy you expected to come with all of this success? It's nowhere to be found. If that sounds familiar, then today's episode is going to feel like a mirror… an empowering one. I'm sitting down with Dr. Judith Joseph, a Columbia-trained psychiatrist, NYU professor, researcher, and social media mental health advocate, and author of the groundbreaking new book High Functioning: Overcome Your Hidden Depression and Reclaim Your Joy. Dr. Judith has worked with high performers from the boardroom to the operating room, and she's here to unpack a surprisingly common experience: looking like you have it all together, while quietly running on empty. She's the one who coined the term high-functioning depression and even conducted the first EVER clinical study on it! If you're building a business, leading a team, and trying to keep it all together while feeling a little “meh” on the inside, this episode is for you. We're diving into why your emotional flatness might be more than a passing mood, how to spot the signs of high-functioning depression in yourself or your peers, and most importantly, what to do about it.
