Podcasts about Overachievers

Send us a textBy late September, the spiral of holiday stress has already begun. The Halloween candy on store shelves, pumpkin spice lattes in your hand, and even the subtle self-shaming about indulging in them aren't random. They're subconscious cues. Triggers. And once they activate, your brain defaults into survival strategies that feel soothing in the moment but trap you in the same cycle of exhaustion, overgiving, and overwhelm by the time January 1st arrives.In this kickoff episode of the No More Holiday Hustle Series on The Cosmic Valkyrie Podcast. Lynn Louise Larson, guides you into a deeper awareness of what's really happening inside your mind and body during the holidays. This isn't about pumpkin spice or shopping therapy. It's about subconscious programming, inherited survival strategies, and the identities that silently drive you into stress every year.Why self-soothing behaviors like emotional eating, wine-down Wednesdays, or retail therapy never break the stress cycle.How your subconscious is wired for familiarity—not success—and why willpower alone can't change your patterns.The hidden cost of inherited stress identities: the People-Pleaser, the Martyr, the Overachiever, and the Fixer.How stress floods your system with cortisol, disrupts your sleep and digestion, and disconnects you from your joy.Why slowing down internally (not just clearing your schedule) is the radical reset you've been craving.How quantum awareness, alignment, and induction hypnosis help you rewire your subconscious and reclaim momentum.This is not about managing stress with surface-level tips. It's about going deeper—into the subconscious patterns that drive your behaviors—and aligning with your luminous self so the holiday season becomes one of presence, peace, and connection.Ready to Break the Spiral for Good? The stress cycle has already started—but this year, you can interrupt it. That's exactly why I created the No More Holiday Hustle Workshop.For just $27, you'll receive: ✔️ 3 powerful trainings under 20 minutes each ✔️ Delivered straight to your inbox (no Zoom links, no rigid schedule) ✔️ Tools rooted in subconscious reprogramming, quantum alignment, and hypnosisAnd if you're ready to go deeper, you can upgrade to VIP for just $20 more.This isn't fluff. It's a frequency reset.

In this tender and eye-opening session, Christine coaches Lucia through the heartbreak and confusion of a breakup she now regrets. While the relationship was loving and emotionally safe, differences in values, lifestyle, and follow-through led to a mutual decision to part ways. Now, Lucia is wrestling with second-guessing herself and holding on to hope—while also remembering what wasn't working. This conversation goes far beyond one relationship story. It's about learning to trust your choices, release regret, and grieve while keeping the love. Christine helps Lucia explore self-forgiveness, avoid over-responsibility, and understand the deeper imprints from her first love and early life experiences. If you've ever questioned a decision, longed for a “redo,” or struggled to move forward after letting go, this episode will help you find clarity, peace, and compassion for yourself. Consider / Ask Yourself: Do you tend to replay past choices, wishing you could go back and change them? Are you holding on to the good memories while forgetting what wasn't aligned? Have you confused the love you felt with the actual fit of the relationship? Is regret keeping you stuck in the past instead of allowing you to move forward? Key Insights and A-HAs: Regret often uses present-day knowledge to beat yourself up for past decisions. Love is not always enough—shared values and aligned lifestyles matter. You can keep the love while grieving the relationship itself. Over-responsibility can fuel self-blame and block healing. Forgiveness and grief work create the space for true clarity. How to Deepen the Work: Write down what was working and what wasn't in your past relationship or situation. Practice self-forgiveness by acknowledging you made the best choice with the information you had at the time. Allow yourself to fully grieve without rushing to replace or “fix” the loss. Identify any limiting beliefs you're holding about your worthiness for future healthy love. Upcoming Events: Join Christine for her Free Masterclass for Overachievers and Perfectionists on August 18th—especially for women who struggle with regret, self-criticism, and letting go. Register at: christinehassler.com/masterclass Also, Christine's Women's Retreat is happening October 17–19, 2025.

What does true confidence really mean in a demanding corporate career? And how do we create and sustain it when self-doubt, overworking, or perfectionism start to take over?

Was Torri a little skeptical? Maybe! But when we dove in, turns out that after all, Torri IS in fact working on her mindset… Mindset work isn't always journaling, vision boards, or structured routines. Sometimes, it's choosing to stay positive in hard moments. It's having deep conversations, seeking connection, or just getting through the day with intention. In this episode, we talk about what mindset work really looks like, how to stay in a good headspace even when life gets messy, and why you might already be doing more mental work than you give yourself credit for. Whether you're deep in personal growth or just trying to feel more grounded, this one's for you.

 When we were younger, we thought adulting would mean total freedom—no rules, no curfews, and eating cake for dinner. But in this episode, we unpack what actually comes with adulthood: the responsibilities, the pressure, the mental load, and the surprise realization that not everyone around us “adults” the same way. We talk about how trauma (or lack of it) shapes our ability to manage life, why having a partner who can carry their share of the adulting load matters more than you'd expect, and what it really means to feel “prepared” for adulthood. This episode is part reflection, part therapy session, and part laugh-at-our-past-selves. Tune in and feel a little more seen in your own messy, real-life version of adulting.

Have you ever felt like a fraud or doubted your accomplishments? In this episode, Kevin welcomes Aoife O'Brien to discuss the often-misunderstood phenomenon of imposter syndrome. Aoife shares research that led her to identify five distinct imposter identities: The Overachiever, The Comparer, The People Pleaser, The Procrastinator, and The Success Fearer, and explains how these behaviors show up and affect individuals and teams.

What if the real problem isn't the mistake you made—but what you made it mean? Are you spending more energy punishing yourself than actually moving forward?3 Key Takeaways from the Episode: • Why high achievers fear the meaning of mistakes more than the mistakes themselves • The mindset shift that helps you recover quickly and effectively: “I did a thing” • How becoming the best at recovering from mistakes makes you indispensable at work

Why is it so hard to just be? In this episode, we unpack the tension between knowing we need rest… and still choosing productivity instead. From cleaning baseboards to reorganizing closets, we explore the emotional discomfort of stillness, the pressure to "earn" downtime, and why so many of us—especially parents and overachievers—find it easier to stay busy than to slow down. We also talk about the cultural messaging that ties our worth to our output, the guilt that creeps in during moments of rest, and how we can start to unlearn it. If you've ever felt like you need to “accomplish something” before you can relax, this conversation will help you reframe rest as necessary—not a reward. Listen in and let's challenge the narrative that rest has to be justified.

My guest this week is Evan Day. Evan is the VP of Digital Marketing at BriteCap Financial, where he's been mastering the art and science of making complex things simple for over 15 years. He's worked with giants like Comcast and global heavyweights in publishing, bringing data-driven strategy to the forefront at every stop. But that's not all. Evan is also pursuing a Ph.D. in psychology with a focus on neuroscience—because apparently having a master's in data science wasn't enough. Overachiever. He's diving deep into the fascinating intersection of brain science and marketing, figuring out what really makes people tick. When he's not being a marketing wizard, Evan is a Brazilian jiu-jitsu brown belt and a former college soccer player—who, I think, sometimes forgets that his knees have aged a bit faster than his ambition. 

First up, in our Overachievers segment, we meet Mitch Hutchcraft, an ex-royal marine who’s officially done too much. He swam the English Channel, biked 12,000km to India, ran to Kathmandu, and trekked to Everest Base Camp—dodging dogs, dodging bullets, and surviving car crashes. Meanwhile, we get puffed walking to the servo. Then it’s all about baby talk... for dogs! A new study reveals that pups actually prefer that high-pitched, cringey baby voice. Yep, their brains light up like fairy lights when we go full goo-goo gaga. In the Glossy’s, Pedro Pascal brings his rave energy to The Last of Us, Kim Kardashian drops a faux-nipple bra, Hulk Hogan bids to save Hooters (yes, really), and the Biebers prove that love means saying sorry for doubting your wife’s Vogue cover dreams. Also, 10 prisoners escape by removing a toilet, and over in Korea, people are winning competitions by doing absolutely nothing. Sounds like Joel’s kind of sport.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On this week's episode of And Colossally That's History! Matt Bishop and Richard Williams look back on the life and career of Eddie Jordan, who very sadly died of cancer, on March 20th this year, at the age of 76. For the generation who grew up on F1 in the 1990s and 2000s, Eddie was the most charismatic team boss in the game, and it was hard not to cheer for his underdog squad when they landed several big punches on the chins of their much better funded rivals, as well as the occasional knockout blow. But, having built an F1 team from scratch on a minimal budget and then not only kept it afloat, but turned it into a grand prix-winning (and at one point championship-challenging) outfit, should EJ be considered F1's biggest overachiever? As Matt and Richard attempt to answer that question, they look back over Eddie's time in F1, with Matt - who was good friends with Eddie - sharing amusing and poignant anecdotes and stories that perfectly illustrate a fun-loving, larger than life character with a steely inner core.Get 75% off your first month when you join The Race Members' Club on Patreon today - we even have an F1-only tier!

After a long (and necessary) pause, I'm back (with Tory in Spirit) , and this isn't just a reintroduction. It's a reclamation. In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on where I've been, what I've been building behind the scenes, and why I'm stepping into this new season with a completely different energy. If you've ever felt like you outgrew your old life (even if it looked “successful” from the outside), this one will hit home. We're kicking off a new era of This Feels Important - one rooted in aligned ambition, embodied truth, and the kind of power that doesn't come from hustling harder… but from coming home to yourself.

What's really keeping leaders stuck?
