Today on Overflow with Kimberly Snider, we're diving into one of my favorite topics—self-care—not as a nice-to-have, but as leadership… beginning with bubble baths, bath salts, and the radical idea of actually filling your own cup.I am so excited to welcome Melissa Dawn, founder of “CEO of Your Life.”Melissa is a Master Certified Coach, executive speaker, and leadership mentor who has helped thousands of leaders navigate high-stakes transformation—without losing themselves in the process. She blends executive coaching and leadership strategy with energy mastery and emotional intelligence, reminding us that leadership is really an inside-out practice.On her website she says something I absolutely love: she recommends salt baths to her executive coaching clientsbecause when leaders truly care for themselves, they become better leaders—and they're empowered to better support the people around them.Because here's the truth: executives and high-level leaders worry about their families, struggle with sleep, stress, self-care, pain, insecurities, and self-doubt… just like everyone else. Many of us keep making the bare minimum deposits into our own energy, then immediately drain it again—repeat, repeat, repeat. Melissa invites us to step out of that cycle.Let's talk:Self-care is essential for effective leadership.Leaders often neglect their own well-being.Energy management is crucial for sustaining leadership roles.Morning routines can significantly impact daily energy levels.Mindfulness practices can help manage stress and emotions.Creating positive habits requires consistency and intention.Empathy towards oneself fosters better self-care practices.Small rituals can lead to significant emotional release.Choosing wellness is a proactive approach to health.Modeling self-care sets a positive example for others.Melissa DawnWebsite: https://ceoofyour.life/LinkedIN: https://www.linkedin.com/in/melissadawnp/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ceo_of_your_life/and Melissa's blog on a morning routine: https://ceoofyour.life/2025/03/harnessing-momentum-tunnels-for-a-powerful-morning-routine/ Grab this 5 page sneak-peek of the 90-Days in OVERFLOW Journal This isn't another journal.It is a reset.

Breaking The Coaching Code: How Great Coaches Transcend The Rules with Karen FoyWhat if great coaching isn't about mastering the rules, but learning when and how to transcend them?In this heartfelt and grounded episode of the Sacred Changemakers Podcast, I'm joined by Karen Foy, a Master Certified Coach, Coach Educator, Supervisor, and Mentor with over two decades of experience shaping the next generation of coaches. Karen's journey began in nursing, where her natural compassion and care for others first took root. Her love of psychology led her into the NHS, where she moved through policy and service development before discovering the transformative potential of coaching. She has since served as Programme Director for Accredited Programmes at Henley Business School, where she remains a Visiting Tutor and Honorary Fellow, continuing to inspire coaches and changemakers worldwide.Together, we explore the themes in her new book, Breaking the Coaching Code: How Great Coaches Transcend the Rules, and the deeper invitation it offers to those of us who coach to move beyond frameworks and techniques, and instead cultivate trust in our own wisdom, presence, and humanity. Karen speaks with rare humility and openness, sharing how her own path has been a lifelong process of “walking people home” to their unique selves, while continuing that same journey within her own life. We discuss concepts such as enoughness, compassion, the evolving nature of retirement, and what it truly means to live and work with integrity in a world that often demands perfection.This is a conversation filled with heart and hard-won wisdom, one that will resonate deeply with every coach, guide, and changemaker who believes that our presence, not perfection, is what truly ignites change.Key TakeawaysWhy great coaching begins where the rules end; trusting your own wisdom and humanity.The journey from nursing to coaching and what it reveals about care, service, and transformation.How to embrace “enoughness” and coach from your unique authenticity, not expertise.What the “second half of life” teaches us about purpose, letting go, and contribution.How small acts of compassion and presence ripple out to create a kinder worldLearn More About Today's GuestKaren Foy Associates & The Coach Tribe website ****→ http://www.thecoachtribe.com/Karen on LinkedIn → https://www.linkedin.com/in/karenfoy/Karen's new book → Breaking The Coaching Code: How Great Coaches Transcend The Rules by Karen Foy, https://amzn.to/42syIbKExplore Sacred Changemakers:Start your journey → SacredChangemakers.comDiscover Your Resonance Code → quiz.SacredChangemakers.comJoin our community → SacredChangemakers.com/communitySubscribe to The Coaching (R)evolution Newsletter → https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/the-coaching-r-evolution-7371571227230101504Books by Jayne Warrilow:‘Becoming: Poems From The Thresholds Of Change' →

What happens when you're so good at keeping everything together… that you forget to take care of yourself? In this episode of The Total Health in Midlife Podcast, I'm joined by Master Certified Coach and people-pleasing expert Sara Fisk to explore a surprising culprit behind so many women's exhaustion, resentment, and stalled health goals: high-functioning codependency. We're not talking about the kind of codependency tied to addiction. This is the polished, over-performing version that shows up in moms, partners, daughters, and leaders—the women who hold everything and everyone together… and quietly fall apart in the process. Sara shares how people-pleasing, perfectionism, and control patterns drain your energy, chip away at your physical and emotional health, and keep you stuck in a cycle of doing for others while ignoring your own needs. If you've ever found yourself running ragged fixing other people's problems, this episode will help you come back to yourself—with honesty, compassion, and a few practical tools to help you start saying yes to you again. About Sara Fisk Sara Bybee Fisk is a Master Certified Coach and Instructor who teaches women how to tame the rampant people-pleasing, perfectionism, and codependency that is causing them so much frustration and resentment. She is an anxious optimist and born-again feminist who listens to more books than she sits down to read. She loves a good hike, good dark chocolate, and good conversations. Her big dreams include learning to sail and to sing and dance like JLo and helping thousands of women create the big, juicy lives they want to be living. She is a wife and mom of 5 and she enjoys those roles most of the time. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN What high-functioning codependency looks like (and why most women don't recognize it in themselves) How trying to “help” others can actually be a way to avoid our own discomfort Why over-controlling others can sabotage your health, relationships, and peace of mind—and how to shift the pattern RESOURCES Too Much by Terri Cole The Dance of Anger by Harriet Lerner Sara Fisk's Free Guide: How to Have a Difficult Conversation The Ex Good Girl Podcast with Sara Fisk Sara's Stop People Pleasing Group Program Total Health in Midlife Podcast Episode 160: Ex-Good Girl with Sara Fisk Total Health in Midlife Podcast Episode 161: People Pleasing & Self-Care Total Health in Midlife Podcast Episode 127: Best Supporting Actress In Your Life Get full show notes and more information here: https://elizabethsherman.com/243

On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with Jerry Henderson—Master Certified Coach, author, speaker, and host of the Permission to Love podcast—to unpack how shame quietly fuels burnout, perfectionism, and imposter syndrome. Jerry shares the inner work that moved him from achievement-as-proof to achievement-as-expression, and explains why self-acceptance increases sustainable performance without the self-punishment loop. If you lead, build, or strive—and feel like it never feels like “enough”—this conversation gives you a practical path to healthy high achievement rooted in identity, self-compassion, and aligned ambition. About the guest : Jerry Henderson is a Master Certified Coach, author, speaker, and creator of the Personal Mastery Framework. He's raised $1B+ in philanthropy and blends psychology, coaching, and trauma-informed practices to help high achievers transform shame-driven success into fulfillment, resilience, and impact. He hosts the Permission to Love podcast. Key takeaways: Shame vs. guilt: Guilt = “I did something wrong.” Shame = “I am something wrong.” Shame often drives overwork, perfectionism, and burnout. Achievement isn't the enemy: High achievement can be healthy; it turns harmful when used to outrun not-enoughness. The inside job: Chasing external approval rarely creates peace. The work is self-acceptance first, then achievement as expression—not proof. Energy shift: Moving from self-criticism to self-compassion changes the fuel source—less grind, more clarity and consistency. Not complacency: Acceptance doesn't mean settling. It means you challenge yourself from care, not fear. Identity > outcomes: Know who you are without your wins. Let wins amplify who you are, not define it. Spot the signs: When “5 o'clock comes sooner,” relationships strain, or health dips, achievement may be shame-driven. Practical start: Notice the inner critic story; replace it with one small act of self-acceptance today. Leader note: Self-berating “bossing” demotivates. Self-compassion sustains performance and protects well-being.

Do you ever catch yourself stuck in endless “what if” questions at work? Do small decisions feel paralyzing because you're always searching for the perfect answer? If so, overthinking may be the mindset keeping you trapped in the grind.In this episode, Amelia breaks down:How overthinking drains your time, energy, and confidence at work.Why catastrophizing “what if” scenarios stalls your career growth.Three simple strategies to stop spinning in questions and start making clear, confident decisions.
In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Phyllis Sisenwine discuss:The importance of networking and relationship-building for professional growthEffective time management and productivity strategiesHow to leverage speaking engagements and visibility opportunitiesThe role of follow-up, asking for referrals, and accountability in business development Key Takeaways:Interruptions can cost lawyers over an hour of billable time each day, so using strategies like time blocking, decluttering workspaces, and tackling the hardest tasks first ensures greater focus and productivity.Networking becomes far more effective when approached strategically by going early to events, bringing a buddy for support, wearing a professional nametag, and consistently following up multiple times to turn introductions into trusted relationships.Speaking engagements generate real business opportunities only when lawyers prepare by connecting with attendees beforehand, personalizing their talks with stories, gathering contact details, and following up afterward to continue the relationship.Lawyers often miss out on referrals because clients assume they are too busy, so they must directly but naturally ask for introductions by framing it as a way to be helpful and showing they want more clients like the ones they already serve. "You really can't be afraid to swing that bat. You want to be a successful lawyer. You can't be afraid to network, to reach out to big referral partners and just take risks." — Phyllis Sisenwine Check out my new show, Be That Lawyer Coaches Corner, and get the strategies I use with my clients to win more business and love your career again.
