High achiever burnout often shows up as the inability to relax—even when you finally stop. In this episode, we explore why rest feels unsafe in your body, not your mind, and how to retrain your nervous system so restoration becomes possible again.High achiever burnout isn't just exhaustion — it's a nervous-system pattern. This episode of The Recalibration names why slowing down feels unsafe for high-capacity humans and how to retrain your body to finally experience real rest.Julie explains how predictive processing (your brain anticipating what might happen) and neuroception (your body's unconscious safety scanner) make stillness feel risky, even when nothing is wrong. She names the lived reality many carry: vacations that don't restore, weekends that stay tense, and moments of stillness that make your body louder instead of calmer.You'll learn:• Why rest feels unsafe to high performers • How early responsibility wires your system for vigilance • Daily signs your body only knows motion • Why “trying harder to relax” never works • How micro-experiences of safety retrain your system • What rest looks like once safety returnsReferenced ConceptsPredictive ProcessingNeuroception (Polyvagal Theory)Safety patterns in high-capacity humansILR DifferentiationIdentity-Level Recalibration (ILR) isn't another habit or hack — it's the root-level identity work that rewires safety, making every other tool finally work.Today's Micro RecalibrationWhere does rest feel unsafe in your body? • What happens when you slow down? • Which sensation shows up first — guilt, tension, vigilance? • What would it take for your body to trust rest?Team Extension: “What would make rest feel safe for us as a collective?”If this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

Chasing external success but hitting ND burnout walls? In this episode of Adulting with Autism, host April explores personal mastery for neurodivergent high achievers with Jerry Henderson, creator of The Personal Mastery Framework™, author/speaker/coach/Personal Mastery Podcast host. Trained at Harvard in human behavior/neuroanatomy/resilience/habits (MBA Global Business, Master's Psychology in progress), Jerry helps trauma survivors (like his own childhood/burnout/imposter journey) blend IFS/NLP/positive psych for emotional resilience, limiting belief rewiring, and whole life success—beyond grind to clarity/peace. Key insights: Mindset pillar: Reframe fixed to growth (stress mindset, CBT for shame-driven achieving). NLP for beliefs: Anchor positive states, disrupt emotional loops (e.g., "happy button" for anxiety/perfectionism). Whole life vs. high performance: Holistic (relationships/sleep/nervous system) for thriving, not survival. Trauma-informed: IFS parts work (protectors/exiles), curiosity over judgment for resilience (ACEs impact). Habit formation: Start small/stack (atomic habits), align with self-worth to avoid sabotage. Clarity/peace: Intrinsic motivation, self-acceptance—external wins without void-filling. Authentic connection: Vulnerability in safe relationships (one fully disclosing starts it). Burnout fix: Honest self-reflection, ask help; job hopping ignores root causes (toxic patterns follow). For autistic/ADHD high performers in imposter/shame cycles, Jerry's framework (post-$1B philanthropy) sustains growth. Free call/resource at jerryhenderson.org.

Cherie is back for another episode! I'm so excited to share this chat with you. Cherie was achieving all the external markers of success while quietly drowning in burnout, chronic insomnia, gastric ulcers requiring surgery and thoughts she couldn't share with anyone, not even her husband. The scariest part? Nobody could tell. In this episode, Cherie shares what high-functioning burnout really looks like for women entrepreneurs. We dive into how she recovered using personalised methods. Remember, burnout doesn't look the same for everyone, and that's precisely what makes it so easy to miss, even in ourselves.

Welcome to the Personal Development Trailblazers Podcast! In today's episode, we're helping nerds, geeks, gamers, high achievers, and underdogs who feel overwhelmed but know they're capable of more to find clarity and confidence.Loren Silverman grew up as the classic nerd underdog. He was often the outsider, bullied, and felt like he could never live up to what others expected of him. Over the course of three decades, his career took many shapes. After college, he spent two years working as a stage manager on nights and weekends at a regional theatre while assisting a general contractor during the day. From there, he spent twelve years as an operations director for a wholesale jewelry company, supported by his GIA Diamond Graduate certification. Eventually, he moved into an eighteen-year career in tech that included leading major programs and guiding teams at firms like Ernst and Young.Even with all that experience, he still felt disconnected, burned out, and like he was living a version of success that did not fit him. The work looked impressive, but it was not fulfilling. Everything shifted when he traveled to Poland to support Ukrainian refugees. He drove families to safety, delivered medicine, and saw what service looks like when everything else is stripped away. In that environment, he realized that the most meaningful moments of his life had nothing to do with technology and everything to do with helping people move forward.That clarity pushed him to step away from the traditional path and seek formal ICF-accredited coach training. He built a coaching practice for the people he relates to most: nerds, geeks, gamers, high achievers, and underdogs who feel overwhelmed but know they are capable of more. He also created a structured program called Life Reboot: Nerd Edition that helps clients take their next steps with clarity and confidence. Today, he equips them with tools to get clear on what matters, protect their time and energy to avoid burnout, and act in alignment with their values.If you have ever felt stuck, scattered, or unsure of which direction to take next, you are not alone. With consistent support and simple, grounded actions, meaningful change becomes possible.Connect with Loren Here: https://www.facebook.com/loren.silverman@loren.silverman@lorensilvermancoachhttps://silvermancoach.comGrab the freebie here: https://digitaltrailblazer.silvermancoach.com===================================If you enjoyed this episode, remember to hit the like button and subscribe.

Have you ever looked around at your life and thought, “I did everything I was supposed to do. I hustled. I achieved. I built the life I wanted… so why do I feel so disconnected from myself?” If that hit a little too close, this episode is the one your soul's been waiting for. Because today, we're unpacking the silent identity crisis that so many high-achieving women face when hustle culture, adulthood, partnership, womanhood, and purpose all collide at the same time. And if you've been feeling stretched thin, burnt out, or unsure of who you are outside of the roles you fill-girl, you are not alone. Today we into the identity shifts that happen when your life evolves faster than your sense of self can keep up. Using insights sparked by Ayesha Curry's recent conversation about losing herself in marriage and motherhood. We break down: Why high achievers struggle silently with identity loss How hustle culture and expectation force women into roles they never truly chose Why so many women feel guilty for wanting individuality outside of marriage or motherhood The emotional conflict between gratitude, ambition, and burnout The truth about evolving in your late 20s + early 30s How to rebuild yourself after transitions like marriage, motherhood, or career shifts Practical self-care tools to reconnect with the woman you're becoming Why your identity isn't disappearing—it's EVOLVING This episode is the reminder every high-achieving woman needs:Evolution isn't betrayal. It's becoming. Low-key burnt out Stuck between who you were and who you're becoming Guilty for wanting more than the roles you play Disconnected from your own dreams and identity Overwhelmed by being “the strong one,” “the dependable one,” “the glue” Then this conversation will feel like a deep exhale. Identity is not fixed—it's fluid. Women are conditioned to add roles, not identities. High achievers often shrink to avoid disappointing others. Gratitude and desire can coexist. Hustle culture adds pressure—but self-care is the antidote. You're allowed to outgrow older versions of yourself. Rebuilding yourself requires quiet, intention, and honesty. Try these if you're navigating an identity shift: Journal Prompts: “What part of me has been asking for attention?” “What would I choose if guilt wasn't in the room?” “What version of me am I ready to return to?” This episode is sponsored by Huel — the go-to fuel source for the ambitious girlies who want to eat well, stay energized, and NOT burn out.

High performers love speed. But speed without alignment kills clarity. In this high-impact episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, Sayan sits down with life coach and founder of Silverman Coach, Loren Silverman, to decode why burnout sneaks up on the smartest people in the room. They break down the psychology of overthinking, somatic cues of overwhelm, and why high achievers mistake chaos for productivity.Loren offers a tactical roadmap for listeners. Pause. Reboot. Grow. His framework helps professionals replace mental load with value-based action, set boundaries without guilt, and build momentum with small strategic choices instead of unrealistic overhauls.If you've been running on fumes, telling yourself you're “fine,” this episode gives you a brutally honest reset. Practical. Grounded. Actionable. Exactly what high achievers need to stay human while staying ambitious. About the Guest: Loren Silverman is a life coach and founder of Silverman Coach. With nearly two decades in tech and digital transformation, he now helps overwhelmed professionals and self-identified nerds align their values, create boundaries, and build sustainable habits. He is the creator of Life Reboot: Nerd Edition, a 90-day coaching program that blends behavioral psychology with gamification to help people pause, reboot, and grow with clarity. Key Takeaways: Burnout isn't caused by doing too much. It's caused by being misaligned. When values aren't driving your decisions, overwhelm builds silently. Overthinking tricks high achievers into feeling productive. In reality, it's worry disguised as strategy. One minute of intentional pause interrupts mental spirals faster than any productivity hack. Don't underestimate micro-rest. Small, consistent actions outperform dramatic life resets because they rebuild trust with yourself and reduce overwhelm. Boundaries protect your focus and set mutual expectations. Clear communication prevents emotional leakage and reactivity. Somatic signs like fatigue, brain fog, irritability, and short breath are early indicators of emotional overload. Listen to them before they escalate. Delegation is a leadership skill, not a compromise. High achievers burn out when they try to be the “go-to person” for everything. Gamified coaching frameworks, like Loren's character-building system, help individuals understand their strengths, energy levels, and personal metrics. Identifying core values clarifies decision-making and eliminates unnecessary friction. Alignment is the antidote to burnout. When actions reflect core values, resilience becomes natural instead of forced.   How to Connect with the Guest:   Website: https://silvermancoach.com/Book a free 30-minute strategy session directly on the site.

We are excited to welcome clinical psychologist and USA Today bestselling author, Dr. Chloe Carmichael, today.  Chloe wrote Nervous Energy: Harness the Power of Your Anxiety, which Deepak Chopra endorsed. Her latest book, Can I Say That? Why Free Speech Matters and How to Use It Fearlessly prompted Eric to reach out to her. That book received recommendations from Dr. Phil McGraw, Dr. Drew Pinsky, Patrick Bet-David, and various other thought leaders. She joins us to explore mental health, the importance of free speech, and what goes on within corporate organizations. Chloe's Journey Dr. Chloe Carmichael built her career as a clinical psychologist, author, and speaker, blending academic insight with real-world experience. She holds a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology and has a private practice in New York City. Her background as a yoga teacher and her fascination with mindfulness shaped her approach to emotional regulation and performance, and she has worked extensively with high-achieving professionals. Over time, her work has evolved from traditional therapy into coaching, corporate consulting, and thought leadership, bridging the gap between psychology and practical success strategies. Productive Anxiety Chloe explains that anxiety, when understood and managed, can be a powerful motivational tool because the physiological arousal associated with anxiety is similar to the energy needed for preparation and action. Productive anxiety becomes maladaptive only when paired with avoidance or self-criticism. Instead of suppressing it, people can use that energy to plan, anticipate, and perform better. Recognizing that anxiety is a natural human function helps people shift from fear-based reactions to constructive responses. High Achievers and Self-Regulation When anxiety gets reframed as preparation rather than panic, it becomes an ally in achieving excellence. High performers often experience elevated anxiety because they set ambitious goals and carry heavy responsibilities. The challenge is not to eliminate anxiety but to regulate it. Practices such as self-awareness, structured planning, and mindfulness help individuals to harness their natural drive without burning out.  Emotional Awareness Tuning into emotional cues can offer valuable feedback rather than distractions. Emotions signal what matters most, and ignoring them can lead to misalignment or poor decisions. Identifying the underlying messages (fear of failure, desire for growth, or need for control) allows people to channel those feelings into intentional actions rather than reactive ones. Boundaries and Self-Validation Boundaries are essential, especially for those who seek their validation externally. Many high achievers rely on the approval of others, which can increase anxiety when feedback is inconsistent or negative. Chloe encourages the development of self-validation skills and acknowledging one's own efforts and internal standards. Setting emotional and time boundaries helps maintain focus, energy, and confidence, even in competitive environments. Practical Tools for Managing Anxiety Chloe offers practical strategies for turning anxiety into productive energy. She recommends setting clear, achievable goals and using visualization to stay focused on positive outcomes. Scheduling dedicated worry time helps contain overthinking, while separating problem-solving from emotional processing prevents downward spiraling. Reframing self-talk from "what if I fail?" to "how can I prepare?" will turn fear into action and build confidence. Mindfulness and Grounding Techniques Mindfulness is essential for calming the nervous system and being grounded. Deep breathing, guided meditation, and journaling slow the mind and create distance from anxious thoughts. Chloe points out that mindfulness does not eliminate anxiety. It helps the mind engage with it objectively, cultivating emotional resilience and better decision-making. Leadership and Psychological Safety Chloe highlights the importance of creating environments where people feel psychologically safe to express their ideas and concerns. Leaders who model calm, reflective behavior encourage teams to think critically rather than reacting emotionally. Leaders will also benefit from acknowledging their own anxieties, as that normalizes stress and builds trust within teams. Balancing Ambition and Well-being Ambition and mental health are not necessarily mutually exclusive. Sustainable success requires the balancing of drive with recovery. High performers should schedule rest, physical movement, and meaningful personal time to prevent chronic stress.  Integrating Psychology into Everyday Life Chloe views psychology as a proactive skill set that helps people live with intention rather than reaction. She encourages listeners to use psychological tools in everyday life, not just in therapy or moments of crisis. Emotional tracking, mindfulness, and self-compassion can strengthen relationships, sharpen leadership, and boost creativity.

In this episode, Lee Domingue sits down with Jerry Henderson, founder of the Personal Mastery Framework, to uncover the real reasons leaders hit the wall and how to find freedom from the inside out.  Jerry shares his powerful personal story, from growing up in poverty and trauma to leading at a global level and rediscovering his true identity in Christ.

On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, Avik sits down with neuroscience-based coach Dorota Kosiorek to unpack why doing more stops working—and how elite performers can shift from pressure to presence. We get tactical on dopamine loops, subconscious “autopilot,” and boundary-setting as a performance system. Dorota breaks down her Elite Mind Framework—from clarifying values to rewiring limiting beliefs—so leaders can achieve more by doing less, with calm confidence instead of chronic overdrive. If your calendar runs you, this is your reset.   About the guest : Dorota Kosiorek is a neuroscience-based coach and creator of the Elite Mind Framework. After 15 years across consulting and startups, she helps high achievers build healthy selfishness, stronger boundaries, and a results-without-burnout operating model.   Key takeaways: High achievers often chase dopamine hits from goals; the drop after “arrival” fuels endless pursuit and burnout. Rest ≠ laziness. Reframe recovery as a strategic input that compounds focus, creativity, and output. Autopilot rules 95% of day-to-day choices; noticing subconscious patterns is step one to changing them. Boundaries are performance infrastructure: set personal non-negotiables and practice saying no without apology. Start with values and “why” to align goals with peace—not at the expense of it. The Elite Mind Framework pillars: Explore (values/why), Liberate (subconscious reprogramming), Integrate (courage and confidence), Transcend (boundaries/healthy selfishness), Embody (purposeful, slower, legacy-driven living). Known but misaligned environments feel “safer” to the brain; courage is required to exit toxic success loops. Practical first move: schedule protected time just for you weekly; treat it as immovable as a board meeting.   How to connect with the guest   LinkedIn: Dorota Kosiorek Website: https://dorotakosiorek.com/ Instagram: @mindbydorota Free 15-minute call: Book via her website (deep-dive to identify your biggest blockers)   Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

Feeling like you're running on empty, no matter how hard you try to have it all together? Fresh from an inspiring BOLD retreat in Asheville, NC, today I'll share the real reason high-achieving women like us keep slipping back into burnout, even after we swear we've got it handled. It's not about willpower or your to-do list. Burnout is actually a biological loop that our bodies get stuck in, especially when the pace never seems to let up. I'll walk you through the hidden mental loads we carry and why recovery needs to be built into our rhythm, not just crammed in when we're desperate for a break. You'll hear my top three strategies for breaking free from the burnout cycle and creating a life with energy, joy, and true freedom. This episode is your invitation to a new chapter, to make room for brilliance—and finally normalize rest, reclaim your rhythm, and enjoy what you're working so hard to build!

Gratitude journals. Green juices. Meditation apps. We've been taught happiness is a checklist, but what if that's only half the story?In this episode, we dive into the world of Positive Psychology and the concept of flourishing– living deeply, not just lightly. We explore the PERMA‑H model (Positive Emotion • Engagement • Relationships • Meaning • Accomplishment • Health) and what it really means to feel alive even when life isn't easy. If you've done all the “right” self‑care things and still feel off… you're not failing. You're human. And this episode is your gentle invitation to stop chasing happiness and start tending what matters. What You'll Discover:Why happiness as a finish line keeps us stuckHow the PERMA‑H model gives us a fuller picture of wellbeingHow cultural expectations twist engagement, achievement, health & moreA simple journaling exercise to map where you're full and where you need spaceWhy flourishing is rhythmic – not balanced or perfect “Flourishing is the whole spectrum – light and dark, joy and grief, purpose and pause. And learning to hold all of it – that's what it really means to be alive.”

Have you ever been so caught up chasing the next goal that you forgot to actually live the one you prayed for? What if your real breakthrough isn't in the arrival — but in who you're becoming along the way? In a world that glorifies hustle culture, high achievers are praised for their grind but rarely for their growth. And let's be real — self-care sounds cute until you're staring burnout in the face. This episode is your permission slip to pause, breathe, and fall back in love with your process. Because the truth is, your worth doesn't wait at the finish line — it's built in every messy, beautiful step along the way. You'll uncover why “arrival mentality” keeps high achievers stuck in a constant chase for the next milestone. You'll learn to reframe success as a journey of becoming, not just achieving — so you can finally find peace in your pace. You'll walk away with practical ways to romanticize the grind, celebrate your micro wins, and build self-trust through presence and gratitude.

We're living in the age of the Reset. Klaus Schwabb calls it the "Great Reset". But were not talking about Klaus Schwabb or his quote that you will "own nothing and like it".  Although some of the following are great things to try, we're also not talking about a reset by cold plunges, breathwork, ice baths. red light therapy or gratitude journaling, either. We're talking about the one “reset” that's actually changing lives, quitting alcohol. In this episode, Shane dives into why so many high-performing men, business owners, leaders, and entrepreneurs, are walking away from the “work hard, play hard” lifestyle and choosing clarity, peace, and purpose instead. You'll hear why Reset Culture is more than just a trend, it's a movement of men who are tired of feeling burned out, anxious, and disconnected… and ready to build a new kind of success story that doesn't come with a hangover. Expect truth, humor, and a few gut punches along the way. (And probably a joke or two about how we used to think tequila was self-care.)

Pushing harder isn't working. Despite your best efforts, you're still stuck in the same patterns: starting strong then quitting, living in extremes, or running yourself into the ground.   If you've ever waited for the "perfect time" to start something, thrown in the towel after one slip-up, or pushed yourself to exhaustion because "that's just what it takes,” this episode is for you. The belief that more effort equals better results keeps you trapped in cycles that leave you exhausted and frustrated. Most high achievers live by this belief, nodding knowingly when they hear it out loud, yet continuing to grind away hoping things will finally fall into place.   Listen in this week to hear the three biggest traps that are currently keeping you stuck. You'll learn how each trap operates differently, and you'll gain practical tools to recognize these patterns and choose different ways of thinking that actually move you forward instead of keeping you spinning in the same exhausting loops.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://carriehollandmd.com/174   Follow me on Facebook and Instagram: https://www.facebook.com/carriehollandmd https://www.instagram.com/carriehollandmd/

What if your "stress" isn't one big mess, but three distinct types of challenges that require entirely different solutions?In this episode of Glass Ceilings and Sticky Floors, host Erica Rooney sits down with Allison Graham, a leading voice on strategic resilience, and author of books like Take Back Your Weekends. Driven by her own journey through chronic pain and adversity, Allison offers a science-backed framework to help high-achievers stop sacrificing their sanity and manage challenges more efficiently.Join them as they dissect the "tangled up stress mess" we all live in and learn how to separate Adversities (life-changing issues), Obstacles (repeat problems), and the endless Task Circle (the to-do list) so you can regain control and dramatically reduce unnecessary stress.Inside the Episode:The Triple Resilience Model: Allison's revolutionary framework for separating your challenges:Adversities: Catastrophic life events that require survival stress (and self-compassion).Obstacles: Repeating moments of angst that you are paid to solve (requiring problem-solving).Tasks: The endless to-do list that needs zero emotional contribution.The "Task Circle" Trap: Why expecting to ever close the loop on your to-do list is a fantasy that drains your capacity and steals your happiness.Stop the Spiral: How to use the "better word game" to neutralize your language (e.g., swapping "awful" for "mildly irritating") and reverse-engineer the emotional swirl of destructive stress.The X Then Y Fallacy: Why putting off happiness until after you get caught up or after the chaos subsides is a recipe for perpetual unhappiness.Taking Back Your Weekends: The biggest mistake high-achievers make—allowing others to control their schedule—and simple, strategic boundaries to reclaim your time.Awareness Over Judgment: Why approaching your bad habits with compassionate curiosity (e.g., "Hmm, that's interesting that I did that again") is key to creating lasting change.If you're ready to stop the overwhelm and start approaching your life with strategic calm, this episode is your essential guide to building real, practical resilience.

Driven by her own journey through chronic pain and adversity, Allison offers a science-backed framework to help high-achievers stop sacrificing their sanity and manage challenges more efficiently.Join them as they dissect the "tangled up stress mess" we all live in and learn how to separate Adversities (life-changing issues), Obstacles (repeat problems), and the endless Task Circle (the to-do list) so you can regain control and dramatically reduce unnecessary stress.Inside the Episode:The Triple Resilience Model: Allison's revolutionary framework for separating your challenges:Adversities: Catastrophic life events that require survival stress (and self-compassion).Obstacles: Repeating moments of angst that you are paid to solve (requiring problem-solving).Tasks: The endless to-do list that needs zero emotional contribution.The "Task Circle" Trap: Why expecting to ever close the loop on your to-do list is a fantasy that drains your capacity and steals your happiness.Stop the Spiral: How to use the "better word game" to neutralize your language (e.g., swapping "awful" for "mildly irritating") and reverse-engineer the emotional swirl of destructive stress.The X Then Y Fallacy: Why putting off happiness until after you get caught up or after the chaos subsides is a recipe for perpetual unhappiness.Taking Back Your Weekends: The biggest mistake high-achievers make—allowing others to control their schedule—and simple, strategic boundaries to reclaim your time.Awareness Over Judgment: Why approaching your bad habits with compassionate curiosity (e.g., "Hmm, that's interesting that I did that again") is key to creating lasting change.If you're ready to stop the overwhelm and start approaching your life with strategic calm, this episode is your essential guide to building real, practical resilience.

My guest is Steven Pressfield, author of The War of Art and expert in how to overcome the inner force of "resistance"—the self-sabotaging tendency to procrastinate on your life's most important work that keeps you from realizing your professional and creative potential. Steven shares actionable tools for defeating inner resistance that work. His approach is concrete, not based on slogans or inspirational messages. As the author of numerous best-selling books and screenplays, Steven's routines for cultivating discipline and focus, including his physical training regimen (he is incredibly mentally and physically vigorous at 82), are applicable by anyone. He gives you effective practical strategies for how to structure your day, overcome procrastination and self-doubt and do your best, most meaningful work.

Robert Glazer collapsed in his kitchen in front of his son, convinced he was having a heart attack. In reality, it was a massive panic attack triggered by grinding too hard while starting a business, building a house, raising kids, and weathering the 2008 recession. That wake-up call forced him to reevaluate everything: his health, his leadership, and the values that guided his life. In this episode, Robert returns to the show to share how childhood struggles shaped his values, why passion is developed, not discovered, and how to know if you're climbing the wrong mountain in life.

“Leisure has meaning when it's in tension with effort, when it's in tension with something that asks more of us than pure relaxation or fun or just even lighthearted stimulation.” - Elizabeth Parsons   In this episode of The People Dividend Podcast, host Mike Horne sits down with Elizabeth Zelenka Parsons, a retirement transition expert and author of Encore: A High Achiever's Guide to Thriving in Retirement. Together, they explore how high achievers can find fulfillment, purpose, and meaning beyond financial success as they transition into retirement.   Elizabeth challenges the traditional view of retirement as “the end” of productivity, reframing it as a new chapter of growth and contribution. She explains why redefining success, planning in decades, and building strong relationships are essential for a thriving post-career life.   Whether you're years away from retirement or already planning your next act, this episode will inspire you to approach the future with curiosity, purpose, and balance.   Key Points:   Redefine success: Learn how high achievers can shift from accomplishment-driven goals to purpose-driven living. Start early: Plan for retirement in 10-year increments to build a more intentional and fulfilling future. Look beyond money: True fulfillment comes from relationships, community, and meaningful engagement—not just financial security.   Links:    Learn more about Mike Horne on Linkedin Email Mike at mike@mike-horne.com Learn More About Executive and Organization Development with Mike Horne Twitter: https://twitter.com/mikehorneauthor  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mikehorneauthor/,  LinkedIn Mike's Newsletter: https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/6867258581922799617/,  Schedule a Discovery Call with Mike: https://calendly.com/mikehorne/15-minute-discovery-call-with-mike     Learn More about Elizabeth Parsons:   http://www.zelinkaparsons.com/ or https://www.encoraco.com/.or https://www.linkedin.com/in/elizabeth-zelinka-parsons-3b58a52/
