Ginny Priem is a number one bestselling author, master certified coach, top keynote speaker, and host of the “Unsubscribe” podcast. She spent more than 20 years in corporate leadership and nearly 20 years in the medical aesthetics industry before turning those hard lessons into a movement. She is the author of “You're My Favorite”, the guided journal “I'm My Favorite”, and her newest book “Unsubscribe: Why Letting Go Is the Secret to Getting Ahead”.This is Ginny's second appearance on the show — she was last here in episode 194 — and this time, she came to Austin in person! The conversation covers the book, but it goes well beyond it: toxic workplaces, narcissistic relationships, going no contact with a parent, comparison on social media, and what it really means to set a boundary vs. burn everything down.Practical, honest, and at times deeply personal. This one hits.In this episode, we cover:Where Unsubscribe came from — and why Ginny changed her entire brand, podcast name, and identity around the conceptWhy unsubscribing is not flippantly walking away — it's a filter that requires critical thinking, action, and accountabilityThe four pillars of Unsubscribe: Block, Mute, Swap, and Manage — and how to know which one applies to your situationTreating your time and energy as a currency just as valuable as money — and what it costs you when you don'tSunk cost fallacy in relationships — why we stay too long and what happens when we finally let goWhat it looked like to have everything together on the outside while completely unraveling inside — shingles in her 30s, hair loss, abnormal skin lesions — and what that stress was actually doing to her bodyComing home to find out her partner was living a double life — and what she did nextLearning to trust herself again after ignoring her gut for years — and why that's the real foundation of everythingConnect with GinnyPodcast: open.spotify.com/show/0UVRo0EOi8bk4Omtb6qWHJSubstack: https://substack.com/@ginnypriemYoutube: www.youtube.com/@ginnypriem Instagram: www.instagram.com/ginnypriem/Website: ginnypriem.com/Linkedin: www.linkedin.com/in/ginny-priem-8a87248/Previous episode with Ginny: https://youtu.be/kXpWGKwR06A?si=EsAZZ38TtoP2vOEEGet the BookUnsubscribe: Why Letting Go Is the Secret to Getting Ahead Please remember to rate, review, and follow the show – and share with a friend!Subscribe to the newsletter:https://mailchi.mp/amyedwards/sign-up-to-amys-newsletterCheck out our new Comedy Wellness Podcast: Anything But Mid, cohosted with Whitney Stropp:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/anything-but-mid/id1849386215https://www.youtube.com/@AnythingButMidFind Amy's affiliates and discount codes: https://amyedwards.info/affiliatepageAll links: ⁠⁠⁠amyedwards.info⁠⁠⁠ - https://amyedwards.info/Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠@realamyedward - ⁠⁠⁠ https://www.instagram.com/realamyedwards/Fight For Her: https://www.fightfortheforgotten.org/fight-for-herTikTok:⁠⁠⁠ @themagicbabe⁠⁠⁠ -  https://www.tiktok.com/@themagicbabe?lang=enYouTube:@TheAmyEdwardsShow -  https://www.youtube.com/c/theamyedwardsshowPodcast: ⁠⁠⁠The Amy Edwards Show Podcast⁠⁠⁠ - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-amy-edwards-show/id1543432633Free Course:⁠⁠⁠ The Ageless Mindset⁠⁠⁠ - https://best-you-life.teachable.com/p/the-ageless-mindset-the-ultimate-guide-to-look-younger-feel-happierFull Course: ⁠⁠⁠The Youthfulness Hack⁠⁠⁠ - https://best-you-life.teachable.com/p/the-youthfulness-hack Amy's hair by ⁠https://www.thecollectiveatx.com⁠Podcast editing by https://podcastmagician.com/Get my FREE course "The Ageless Mindset: The Ultimate Guide to Look Younger and Feel Happier!"

What does true mastery look like in coaching, and how do Master Certified Coaches set themselves apart? In this episode of The Coaching Hub, I share the reality of mastery beyond flashy techniques or the latest tools. Whether you're an aspiring coach, pursuing your MCC, or just curious about the journey to excellence, this episode offers a candid look at the path toward coaching mastery.I reflect on my own experience training as a Master Certified Coach and dive into the difference between coaching the person versus coaching the problem and why genuine presence, partnership, and curiosity matter more than any model or framework.You'll discover how the best coaches bring deep self-awareness, embrace not knowing, and use space and precision in service of their clients. I unpack why mastery is a never-ending journey, how every coaching conversation is shaped by our state of being, and why human connection and transformational impact can never be replaced by AI.What's insideCoaching mastery isn't about techniques or tools, but presence with clientsCommitting to continuous learning and growth, not believing oneself to be a finished "master"The importance of a growth mindset in becoming an MCCBeing present and non-judgmental allows for deeper conversationsA defining trait of master coaches is focusing on the person as a wholeMastery takes a holistic, human-to-human approach that cannot be replicated by AI.Key topics covered:00:00 Intro00:03 Mastery in coaching is about who you are in the room01:02 Focusing on continually learning and evolving01:54 Master coaches are deeply committed to improving their craft02:39 Recognising and addressing blind spots03:34 Adopting a growth mindset for improvement04:23 Mastery is about coaching the person05:30 Operating without attachment to being right07:12 Genuine curiosity reveals deeper insights.08:13 At Master level, questions are sharper 11:13 Courageous challenge defines transformational coaching.About Ruth Kudzi:Ruth is the founder of Optimus Coaching Academy and a well-respected and successful coach, speaker and author who has worked across sectors including leadership, career and more recently business and mindset.

In this lively and inspiring episode, you'll hear our guest's remarkable journey from the theater stage to the executive boardroom. Her career has been a winding path of rich, creative experiences, culminating in three decades of improvisation training that has become the unexpected backbone of her coaching philosophy.

Your calendar fills up fast.A meeting here. A “quick chat” there. Another request you say yes to… just to be helpful.And before you know it.. you're fully booked, mentally drained, and wondering when you'll actually have time to think.Not because you don't know how to manage your time…But because you haven't mastered how to decline it.In this week's BFG episode (Part 2 of the Taking Back Control of Your Calendar series), we're zooming in on one of the most underrated leadership skills: The Clean No.Here's what we unpack:The anatomy of a Clean No—a simple, no-drama way to decline requests (without overexplaining, apologizing, or leaving the door open for negotiation)The subtle habits that are keeping you overcommitted—like soft nos, guilt-driven yeses, and “just this once” decisions that quietly overload your calendarHow clear, direct boundaries instantly elevate how you're perceived—so you're seen as decisive, focused, and operating at a senior levelBecause saying no isn't the problem.It's how you're saying it.If every decline turns into a paragraph…If you find yourself justifying your time…Or if “no” somehow keeps turning into “maybe”…This episode will show you how to communicate boundaries in a way that's clean, confident, and actually respected.Enroll in BFG: Want to eliminate stress, self-doubt, and overworking so you accelerate in your demanding corporate career without grinding your way to the top?

You know exactly what you want to say.You've rehearsed it in your head.It's clear. It's sharp. It's confident.And then you get into the meeting……and suddenly you start rambling.You soften your point.You add five extra sentences no one asked for.And somehow… what was clear in your head now sounds uncertain out loud.It feels like a communication issue.But what if it's not that at all?In this week's Breaking Free from the Grind episode, I'm diving in to discuss: Why overexplaining and overjustifying aren't about being thorough—but are actually driven by self-doubt and the need to manage other people's reactionsThe 3 moments high performers lose authority at work (saying no, making asks, and sharing their point of view)—and how overexplaining in these moments is quietly holding you backThe #1 senior leadership shift to certainty—and how to communicate clearly, concisely, and confidently so you're seen (and respected) as a senior leaderIf you find yourself overexplaining in meetings, rewriting messages multiple times, or walking away from conversations thinking “that didn't land how I wanted”…This episode will show you what's really happening, and how to shift into the kind of communication that actually reflects your level.Enroll in BFG: Want to eliminate stress, self-doubt, and overworking so you accelerate in your demanding corporate career without grinding your way to the top?

In episode 3 of our Coaching for Health and Wellbeing podcast series, hosts Ana Paula Nacif and Christian van Nieuwerburgh, and guest Andrew Parsons — a biomedical scientist turned Master Certified Coach — explore what it truly means to coach in the mental health and wellbeing space. Andrew brings a rare blend of clinical knowledge and coaching expertise to a nuanced conversation about supporting people living with long-term health conditions. A key starting point is understanding health and mental health not as a fixed state but as a dynamic continuum, shaped by life circumstances, relationships, and personal history: a reframe that sets the tone for everything that follows.   A central theme is ethical practice: knowing where coaching ends and counselling begins, and why that distinction matters, particularly in clinical environments. Andrew explores coaching as a health promotion activity rather than a clinical intervention, the critical importance of trauma-informed practice, and why supervision is non-negotiable when working with vulnerable populations. Coaches in this space, he argues, are not therapists or clinicians, but they do offer something profound — a collaborative, reflective relationship that helps clients develop new perspectives and capabilities to navigate complex health journeys.   What makes this conversation particularly distinctive is Andrew's exploration of nature and human connection as vital but often overlooked dimensions of wellbeing. In our modern lives, we have increasingly lost touch with the natural world and with each other, yet as social creatures, these connections are fundamental to how we thrive. Andrew argues that coaches working within a wellbeing orientation are well placed to help clients reconnect with both, and that this relational, holistic view of health is where coaching's unique value truly comes into its own.   You will learn: ·       Heath and mental health exist on a continuum: it is dynamic, not fixed, and shaped by life circumstances, relationships and personal history ·       Ethical practice, scope of practice and supervision are non-negotiable, especially in clinical or health contexts ·       Why coaches need to have an holistic approach, consider the importance of connection for wellbeing and let go of needing specific outcomes   "Knowing our capabilities and having the appropriate training to be working in this area is really, really important."   Don't forget to subscribe, rate, and leave us a review!

Do you feel like the only way to stay ahead at work is to control everything—every detail, every outcome, every possible problem before it happens?For high achievers in demanding corporate careers, the drive to overwork and grind often comes from a deeper belief: If I stay on top of everything, I'll stay safe. But the truth is, the constant need to control can quietly create the burnout, anxiety, and exhaustion you're trying to avoid.In this episode, I unpack the control illusion—and why learning to let go of what isn't yours to carry is one of the most powerful leadership skills you can develop.In this episode, you'll learn:Why high performers often overwork as a way to feel in control—and how that pattern actually fuels stress and burnoutThe six hidden reasons many leaders feel the need to control everything at workThe mindset shift that helps you stop focusing on what you can't control and start leading from clarity and confidenceA simple daily tool—the Leaning In vs. Letting Go T-Chart—to help you redirect your energy toward what actually moves your career forwardBecause the most effective leaders aren't the ones gripping tighter and tighter to every outcome.They're the ones who know when to lean in—and when to let go.Enroll in BFG: Want to eliminate stress, self-doubt, and overworking so you accelerate in your demanding corporate career without grinding your way to the top?

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' →
