A former corporate finance professional, she spent a decade climbing the ladder while quietly questioning whether success on paper truly aligned with who she was. After navigating her own seasons of burnout and transition, Molly built a coaching practice dedicated to helping high achievers recalibrate, pivot with intention, and build lives that energize rather than exhaust them. As an entrepreneur and mom of three, she intimately understands the pressure to 'do it all.' Through her coaching and her podcast, The Modern High Performer (formerly Dream It, Do It), Molly blends practical strategy with mindset work, guiding women to manage their energy like athletes, recognize early “orange flags,” and take bold, aligned action without blowing up their lives. Today, she partners with CEOs, founders, and senior leaders to provide the outside perspective they need to operate well under pressure—proving that true high performance never requires sacrificing your health, your family, or waging a war with your own ambition. If you enjoyed this episode, make sure and give us a five star rating and leave us a review on iTunes, Podcast Addict, Podchaser or Castbox. https://lovethepodcast.com/BITYSIDEALS!

Like this comes up for a lot of high achievers. They're associating, like, loyalty with strength, and so like, I need to stick this out. I'm a loyal person. I want like approval. I do what I'm saying I'm gonna do, but it it might just be that it's time to recalibrate.Lesley Logan 0:20  Welcome to the Be It Till You See It podcast where we talk about taking messy action, knowing that perfect is boring. I'm Lesley Logan, Pilates instructor and fitness business coach. I've trained thousands of people around the world and the number one thing I see stopping people from achieving anything is self-doubt. My friends, action brings clarity and it's the antidote to fear. Each week, my guest will bring bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and Be It Till You See It. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started.Lesley Logan 1:02  Hi, Be It babe. Okay. This is amazing. This interview is amazing. Get your pen and paper out. You're also going to absolutely want something that she is offering you at the end. And I mean it in like, those of you who like a journal, you're gonna like this like a like a planner. Molly Asplin is our guest, and she is an incredible coach for high achieving women, which is very different we talk about, than over achieving. We talk about burnout, we talk about prioritization of self. I really loved how she presented burnout and prioritizing yourself, and like ways to do it. It's different than I know we talked about a lot here, but it's different than we've ever talked about it. So I really am excited for you to hear this. I absolutely think you're gonna share it with a friend. There are some definite signs your friend is going to need this. And so I'm just gonna let us get into it. Here's Molly Asplin. Lesley Logan 1:49  Hey, Be It babe. I am super excited for today's convo, because when I was looking over like, what we could talk about, I was like, oh yeah, preventing burnout. I'm well, we're all in. In fact, I just had, literally had someone asked me, how do you know you need a rest? And I was like, if you were waiting until you need a rest to take a rest, we have a problem. But our guest today is Molly Asplin, and she is amazing. Molly, can you tell everyone who you are and what you rock at?Molly Asplin 2:12  I can. I'm so happy to be here, Lesley. I'm a high performance coach, so I, too, am a recovering perfectionist, workaholic. I have beat burnout a few different times, and so I very much connect with what your what your friend just asked you. But yeah, I work with high achieving women who feel like there could be something more or something different in their life. I spent 10 years in corporate finance and was sort of driving to work every morning feeling like, is this really it? And I feel like there's something different for me, and I was getting promoted and moving up in the company and stuff, but I'm like, this, this doesn't feel like me. And so I had to make some hard decisions that sort of felt guilty for me at the time, because I'm like, This is what I'm supposed to be doing. This is what looks really good on paper. It's responsible. But then I pivoted and created, created my own coaching business, and now I really help women just find what they're good at and like, what they really feel like they have a strength in, and either pivot in that direction or, like, do something fulfilling on the side that brings more of that into their life. It might be a career, career transition, or it might just be stepping into more alignment with who they are.Lesley Logan 3:23  I love this journey because I feel it feels very familiar. I also want to just like a couple things. I want to point out there's a very difference to an overachiever and a high achiever, right? Like high achieving is not this thing that you have to like stop being or you should feel bad about. Overachieving is kind of like when we do a little, we don't know when enough is enough. Molly Asplin 3:43  Yeah. Like, overcompensating, right? Lesley Logan 3:45  Yes, yes. I also, I also really liked, you know, like, we all go on kind of a journey, and you talked a bit about, like, burnout, like, can you maybe share, like, what burnout looked like for you? Because I think it's a little, I think it's actually very similar for a lot of people, just different clothes, but maybe.Molly Asplin 4:01  Totally. So I was not having like, panic attacks or anything like that. I started to feel very restless, and I started to feel like my days were very monotonous and boring, I'll even say, and I started to feel like I was losing my edge, and I'm like, am I just, like, not ambitious anymore, or, like, what's going on here? And, you know, you hear, like, the rat race or the hamster wheel like that, all felt very real to me. And it was just like, yeah, is this really it? And so for me, it came in the form of, like, very mundane, like, I don't think I can do this my whole life. And then it led me to, like, question my ambition, when really I just I needed a change.Lesley Logan 4:45  I thank you, because I do think people are expecting the burnout to be a panic attack. They're in bed, they can't do anything. And it can actually be that you could be showing up every day to work, but bored and blah, like not overwhelmed or underwhelmed.Molly Asplin 5:01  Like, not alive, and I'm like, an alive person, so I'm like, something, something is up here. Yeah.Lesley Logan 5:08  Okay, so then, how do you, I guess, like, so, how do you go from, like, recognizing that you're burnt out to knowing, like, what tools to help? You know, because I do think it's a real question people like, how, like, what? How do you prioritize? How do you not burn out? And it's like, some of the obvious questions are, like, well get sleep and drink some water. But also, like, where do you start? Because once you're in the ditch, it's kind of hard to know where, how to, like, climb out of it. Molly Asplin 5:33  Well and it's interesting Lesley, because as a high achiever, and probably some of your listeners can relate to this, I was like, oh, well, I just need to get the next promotion, or, like, I just need a different job. Like, I start, I just, like, looked outside of myself, and I did some of those things, but then nothing was fixing the problem. I'm like, a few months later, I was like, back in the same cycle, and so I realized, like, I need to go inward on this, and I need to figure out, like, what's really important to Molly, and I so that's really when I went on my own journey of, like, self-discovery. And I started getting more into personal development. I started taking care of myself a lot better, like you said, sleep, water, working out. I, like, started carving out time for myself in the morning, journaling. And those things sound cliche, but like when you I think there is a compound effect with them, and for me, it was probably, like, after six months of doing that, I'm like, I I'm gonna make a transition of some sort, and like, I'm gonna do things, something that's like, way more aligned with my strengths and skills that I really want to use. Lesley Logan 6:37  Oh yeah, I am getting to, like, taking that time to like, who is who is Lesley, who is Molly? Like, I don't, I'm sure most of us haven't taken the time to do that since we were like a child. And even then, when did you have the time? Except when, like, you're a little kid, and they're like, Okay, what color is your hair? Like you're practicing, you know those things, figuring that step out. You mentioned, like, I'll just take another promotion. I resonate with that so much I had to quit a job because I was like, they're gonna promote me again, and I don't have to say no, like, I'm such a high achiever, I'm like, they're gonna offer me this gig, and I'm not gonna, I don't know how to say no, so I'm just gonna quit.Molly Asplin 7:14  Well, and high achievers that does come up, they're like, I wish I would just get laid off. Some of them will tell that to me, because they're like, I don't want to do this anymore. But like, I'm not going to decide to do like they wish they would kind of be forced out.Lesley Logan 7:27  Here's a sign.Molly Asplin 7:29  Yeah, that's a big sign. That's a big one. Lesley Logan 7:31  Okay, so then now that you, like, have gone through the burnout, you've gone the other side. You obviously like, help people with this. What are, looking back, like, what are some things that maybe we could see as, like, orange flags before the red flag of bored or, you know, for some people, panic attacks, like, what are some signs that, like, we're a little bit getting close to the tank is empty?Molly Asplin 7:54  Okay, so this is a big one, and usually once I name it, people are like, Oh yeah, I'm doing that, or I have done that, and it's, are you loyal to a fault like this comes up for a lot of high achievers. They're associating like, loyalty with strength. And so, like, I need to stick this out. I'm a loyal person. I want like approval. I do what I'm saying, I'm gonna do, but it, it might just be that it's time to recalibrate. And so that was a big one for me. Like loyalty to a fault. If you find yourself defending what you're doing more than you're enjoying it. But like defending meaning, like you're complaining about it a lot and you're like, but it's really flexible, but how life is.Lesley Logan 8:36  Yes, and by the way, this is not your job. It's just two ladies, like, sometimes this is your friends or your family members or your boyfriend or your partner. Molly Asplin 8:43  That's so true, Lesley, and so you'll you'll kind of know, like, now that I'm saying it, hopefully it brings awareness to it, but you'll notice like, wow, I'm really, like, kind of complaining about this, but then I'm justifying it. Maybe it's just time to take the facts for the facts and change.Lesley Logan 9:00  Yeah. Oh, that's a good one. Oh, I see that in so many people. I'm like, I definitely, I definitely can remember when I was doing it with the job that, like, I was good at, I was good at, and I probably had I taken that promotion, would still be there, and I'd make good money and have a very secure in air quotes ish job, but I would, I think I would have been bored, but I remember defending, oh, but, like, they have really good health insurance, or oh, but I get to work around these people, oh, I'm learning a lot, and it's like, yeah, at the at the same time, I'm also not sleeping because I'm so stressed out all the time. Molly Asplin 9:40  Yeah. Like, it's flexible, but you're not sleeping, so there's a problem.Lesley Logan 9:43  Yeah, not really, but flexible. Okay, I love those. Those are some good orange oranges flags or just some reflection things to be thinking about. So I guess, like, when you were on your journey, was it because you are a high achiever and you had, like, success, in what you were doing, it just was, you know, not exactly. It was like, all there, is this all there is? What was it like to make the switch? Was there uncertainty? How did you like because I feel like a lot of people, the biggest problem with, like, switching to something new is that, like, well, now I'm a beginner, but over here I'm an advanced expert. Like, it's hard to be a beginner again.Molly Asplin 10:20  It is. And I mean, I'm a pretty risk averse person, like my background is accounting, like, I'm very analytical, and so I didn't, like make big changes by, like, blowing up my whole world, and like taking this big leap immediately. I did it in a more thoughtful way, which I think a lot of people do relate with. And so what I recommend is, like, starting to take some bold moves, like, while you're in the mundane, the stuck, the orange flags or the red flags, but you can start to make some bold moves. And usually, you know what those are. Like, usually everyone kind of knows, like, oh yeah, I should probably start, like, networking, or talking with Lesley about something, or talking with my, you know, friend who is another high achiever, or I should make a phone call, or I should update my resume, or I should start doing Pilates. Or, like you usually kind of know that, like next bold move, and it's not usually like I'm gonna quit my job tomorrow, for most people, but if you can get in the habit of making one bold, courageous move a day. I do think it, like, keeps the stuck away.Lesley Logan 11:26  Oh, and also, like, if you think about that, in 30 in a month of 30 days, that's 30 bold moves. It's kind of amazing. I think we have to do five or 10, and that's impossible, and keep the stuck away. Like, I hope you make a sticker of that. So this kind of brings me to something that you're, like, really known for, which is, like, being her now, which is obviously a very be it till you see it kind of a thing, right? Some of the people I know, they're like, they just want, they want to just, like, cut it and go all the way over. They don't want, you know, but I'm always of the I'm also risk averse, because I didn't. I'm not an accountant by any means, and I'm sure every listener already knows that, but I would rather have a runway and, like, you know, like, a slowly, like, yeah, a little bit of a plan. And also, like, okay, as I have this over here, I can let go of this over here, and as this over here, I can let go and then, and then I can make a leap, right? Like, I don't have to have the bridge fully built, but just enough that I can jump off of it and land on my own two feet would be really great. So I'm a big fan, but a lot of people have a hard time because they're like, you know, I don't want to do this anymore. I want to do this over here. So to me, the being her now would kind of help with that, like, I don't know, would it?Molly Asplin 12:35  100% yeah, you need to, like, practice and start acting as if and walking into that right away. You don't need likely, another degree, you don't need more credentials, you don't need more proof, you don't need more time like you really do have to start embodying that and showing up at it as it, and I've had to do that in like every big transition or pivot. It's like, Well, I gotta just step into it and start acting like that, showing up like that, and then all the it's kind of weird. Lesley, you've experienced, I'm sure, and then all of a sudden it like matches, yeah? And you're like, Oh, I'm living out what I kind of wanted to live out.Lesley Logan 13:14  Yeah, yeah. It's really, I mean, it's really true. I mean, you know, if you're someone who's like, well, when I have this, then I'll be less busy. It's like, well, if you were less busy, what is something like, what are the things you would do with that time? And then, like, how can you, oh, I would go for a walk around my neighborhood with my dog. Well, how can you just walk up to the sidewalk and back? Like, how can you just start to put that in place and all of a sudden, you know, is that kind of it? Like, it's like, it's like, doing some of the things that that person would be doing.Molly Asplin 13:42  Doing some of the things like, I'll have women say, like, Well, I would really like to start a podcast someday. And I'm like, Well, why don't you just start the podcast? They're like, Oh, yeah, I guess I could. It's like, we're waiting for something to arrive when you literally can, like, start it now.Lesley Logan 13:58  Yeah, yeah. And if that scares you, you're like, I don't have an editor. You could just go live on something, you know, you could just, you could even, like, make it small and just go live, start going live, and then save the recording so that you have a podcast when you're ready you know.Molly Asplin 14:13  Here's another great tactical example, Lesley, I have a high performance client. She's got a great corporate job, and she's like, I really want to get into the self-development space and speak and train. And I'm like, why don't you practice doing that in said corporate job now? She's always like, leading meetings and things. And she's like, Oh yeah, I guess, I guess I could. It's like, practice the skill. Practice like elevating yourself in whatever environment you can right now, because you're going to need that practice for the big stage later anyway. Lesley Logan 14:45  Well, because I mean, like, and I love this, and it's going to sound like common sense when we say it out loud, but also, I think we all need to hear it like when you see someone speak on stage. That's not the first stage they spoke on. They spoke on stages that were much smaller. They spoke on stage with one person. They, you know, they did, they did the thing before they got invited to the big stage. So you definitely don't want your first invite to be the biggest stage you've ever been on. So starting with the audience or the pond you have is a great way to being her now and getting that experience. Molly Asplin 15:18  100% Lesley Logan 15:20  So okay, other ways that you because if you were busy as an accountant and you were high achiever and promoted and all these things, what are some of the ways that you actually made time for being her now to what that like merged into what you're doing now, like, was there some sort of, did you have a whole day to work on this thing, or did you do pockets of time? How did you make this work?Molly Asplin 15:42  Yeah, I think if you can. I mean, my accounting job was like, you know, nine to five typically, and I started, like, bookending my day with more of the things that I wanted, like, for me, that was my coaching business. And so I would definitely get up before a corporate job and start kind of doing some of these things that I have, building my social media and, like, growing my network, that kind of thing, and then same thing, like in the evening. And I still, I still do this now with like, sort of extracurriculars that I want to pursue. But, yeah, I think you've got to look at what, what do you need to do in that season to, like, pay the bills, or, you know, keep the job, or whatever. You can still do a good job at that while you start to create something else.Lesley Logan 16:29  Yeah, I kind of, I also like the idea of bookending it, because then you get to start your day with something you want, then you go to work. Yeah, you go to work and you aren't thinking about, Oh, I got that thing on my lunch break. I got that thing like you've already done some stuff. You've, like, kicked the ball into another court, or moved the needle a little bit, and then you get to end your day with that, which makes you get out of said job on time so that you can go to the.Molly Asplin 16:53  I got a lot more effective at my full time job during that season because I was like, let's do what I need to do at work so that I can get home and build the other thing that I'm excited to build, and then I would always rock it like Saturday mornings, Sunday mornings. You know, it's like, when it when something is yours and it's your baby, or you're wanting to develop it, or try something new, I really think you are excited to do it. I don't think it's like, oh, this other obligation. There's like energy within you that's like, I'm hungry for this pivot or this change. Like, let's see what I can do. Lesley Logan 17:25  Yeah, well, I think, like, if you're going to do something else, we're gonna add one more thing to your plate. You really have to it does need to be energizing. So that's a sign to me. But like, it's definitely something you're wanting to do if it's actually bringing you energy, versus, like, if it is just like, another thing that feels boring, you're probably doing something that sounds good versus something you want to be doing. Molly Asplin 17:47  Correct. Yes, for sure. Lesley Logan 17:49  Okay, so we know that the the recovering over achievers, the high achievers, the perfectionist there's this whole busy badge of honor, or like, I'm so burnt out. Like, there's this like mentality almost, of, like, bragging, you know, like, for a long time it used to be that the like, the there's a the tech bros and the CEO bros, like, I only do two hours of sleep, like, this is, like bragging, of like, how little they took care of themselves. But I actually think I'm, like, on the other side is, like, a lot of people like bragging about burnout, as if, like, they've achieved something and and then we all go, Oh, I know. And, like, we don't go, wow, that is probably not great. What's going on? So how did.Molly Asplin 18:28  It's kind of weird that we do that, isn't it? Yeah, like, we don't bat an eye. We're like, oh yeah. Same, busy.Lesley Logan 18:34  Yes, I, yes. Like, almost like, cheering it on. What? What is wrong? How do we prevent that.Molly Asplin 18:42  I know it's really weird, and I don't, I don't know if it's like that in other countries. Like, I feel like I have friends in Europe, and they're like, y'all like, you Americans are kind of weird. Like, why are you all, like, celebrating that? But it is a problem Lesley, and I think when you actually look at the research, higher performance is driven by, like, a similar cadence as an athlete. Like you can sprint and you can run and you can train hard, but then you better have a recovery day to, like, reset, recalibrate, get your creativity back. Right? And so there's, like, very much the research is there on like, you've got to take, like, a on a weekly basis, a weekly break, and on a monthly basis, another break. And on a, you know, on a yearly basis, the annual vacation, like periods of recharge are really important for a high performer. And you can probably think of people in your life who do that really well, and you will start to notice their energy. And you're like, yeah, she's not talking about burnout, and she's like, crushing it and getting her stuff done and going to bed, and appears to be a great mom, you know, like, you can kind of start to notice it on people, and I started to observe that, and I'm like, that's the edge I want. I don't want, like, the tired, depleted bags under my eyes, like, I want a vibrant, awesome life, and that means, like, I need to rest and take care of myself and recharge. And I can also kick ass on Monday.Lesley Logan 20:07  Yeah, yeah. One of the, one of the calls I had today, the girl asked, like, how do you know you need to rest? I think we talked about this meeting, and I was like, I do things for myself every single day, so I don't have to wait until my body shuts down to rest. Like, that's, that's actually, like, that's like, your car, like, if you go all the way down to zero all the time, you're actually going to ruin some tubes and other things like that, right? So you got to, before it's empty, you got to fill it back up. And someone goes every day? That's what they are going to say, every day. I'm like, yeah, every day. And I don't think that I'm crazy. Now, I can, I might be more luxurious with my time, because I don't have certain responsibilities that other people have. But every single day, I'm doing something so that I'm actually before I need a rest, taking care of myself. And I think that that goes to that preventing that burnout badge. It's like, I think we actually need to stop going, oh, yeah, you're burnt out, me too, and start going, Whoa. What are you doing for yourself? Like, what if we all as friends started going, Oh, what are you gonna do to, like, keep that from happening tomorrow?Molly Asplin 21:16  Yeah, that's another way to say that is, like, how are you sustaining I had a client who was just like, my goal is to like she was a realtor and kicking butt. And she's like, I want to sustain my energy through all the seasons, and I don't want to get to the end of the busy season and feel like I didn't take care of myself and now my health took a back burner. And I mean, I've seen people like, Lesley, you have a crap ton of responsibilities. I have a lot of respon, I have three young kids, like, I just don't think it's selfish to, like, carve out the time that I need to then be a better mom and a better business owner. It's not. And I also just heard a gentleman say this, and I was like, oh, that's fascinating. He was saying he's like, some some business owner, very successful. He's like, when people tell me that they're so busy, it immediately makes me not want to give opportunities to them, because it's showing me they can't handle what they have in their life. Like, why would I give them more? Lesley Logan 22:09  Yes, oh, I do think that that's really interesting. Yeah, I have, I had, I had someone go, Oh, I know you're really busy. And I was like, Oh, who told you that? And they're like, what it just seems like you really, just seems like you're really busy. I said, Oh, I have a lot going on, but I feel great. Look at me. Look at my two heads. And I'm like, I'm like, intentional about bringing that up, because I'm like, one, people, we make assumptions about a lot of people, and then two we, you know, I I have a full schedule, but it's full of things that I've chosen to do, and I've also there's, of course, there's things I don't want to do in my schedule. It happens to all of us, like, I hate a meeting, but like, got to do them sometimes. But then there's things I do to make sure that, like, I can enjoy the other things I have to do, right? Like, we all have things we have to do so, but I love what that guy said, and I think it's important for us to go, Well, how are you sustaining yourself? Like, oh, how are you doing that? And also, maybe you can talk a little bit like, how, how do you know what you need to do to recharge or to prioritize yourself, or to have self care? Because I think some people think it's going to the spa each week. And I actually think it's like, you know, water, sleep.Molly Asplin 23:19  Totally. I think you I think as you practice this, you start to know what's going to make you feel really good. Like, after this podcast, I'm going to go for a run. It's like, I'm ending my day. I'm in Central time, then I got to go get my kids. And I'm like, I know that if I go for like, a 20 minute run after this podcast, I will, like, reset myself for the evening. And it's kind of, like a good, like, reset for, you know, to go into parenthood, and so, but I've learned that because I've practiced it right, and I know, like that actually makes me feel really good. And, you know, for Lesley, it might be meditating or something like, I think you've got to try some of this on. Yeah, it's usually easy, accessible. It's not usually expensive. Like, it's, I don't think it's usually going to the spa, maybe on a monthly basis, if that's your thing, or whatever. But I think for a lot of people, it's so much can be so much easier than they're making it.Lesley Logan 24:11  Yeah, I think so. I love that you I love that you brought up that you are going to go for run in the middle of the day, like, as, almost like a switch gears to parenthood. I, you know, like, I, I'm known for having a pretty awesome morning routine, but somebody like, I don't have the time in the morning. Great. Do you have the time at lunch? Do you have the time before? Can you ask the neighbors, parents? Hey, can you do Tuesdays and Thursday I'll do Mondays and Wednesdays. Like, I think, like, we're so consumed with like, I've got to do all of it without that we're not realizing that there's resources around us that we could be using. To go back to that gentleman's point, if people say they're so busy, it means they're not able to handle it also means that they're not able to understand when to say, yes, no. And also, hey, can you do this? So I can do this over here. I can help you here. If you do this here, you know we have resources around us.Molly Asplin 24:57  Yes, 100% I agree.Lesley Logan 25:00  Okay. So I also want to talk a little bit about, like, maybe we kind of covered a little bit, but also, like, how do you honor your time? Because I actually am quite impressed that you can go for a run the middle of the day. The reason I have a morning routine is because I can't be trusted with, like, the afternoon routine. So how do you protect that time. Like, what did you have to do? Do you have to give yourself a pep talk. Is it just because you know you're gonna feel so good? Like, what does that look like? Because I think some people go, Oh, I'll do it tomorrow. This call just came in. Oh, my mom needs me. Like, you know.Molly Asplin 25:30  Yeah, this is such a good question. And I think, I think genuinely, or generally, high achievers are pretty good at, like, time blocking their day and, like, getting their stuff done, you know, if that's what we want to call it. But what I don't think we're always naturally good at is, like, the energy management of that. And so, yeah, in the mornings, I have a morning routine as well Lesley and like that gets me in the state of mind to, like, crush it at work, or to bring the energy. And then I always know like, I'm gonna hit kind of a lull around like noon in my work day. I know that if I can do certain activities in the morning, my energy is like better. It's when I can do like, deep work strategy. Most high achievers are not using their first hour of the work day effectively. You know they're like, input overload, notifications, emails, like social media, Zoom calls, when you really do want to be spending that first hour of your work day doing something more strategic, something more creative, something that you're like, I need to, like, move the needle on this, and I can't just like, squeeze it in the cracks of the day. And so I just started to notice, like, all these trends about my own, like, energy management throughout the day, and I've worked really hard to, like, set up my calendar around that. And I know not everyone has that luxury, but I also work with a lot of corporate clients that I have, and they they'll start blocking out, like, nine to 10am in the morning, and they're like, I'm not no meetings during that time, you know, to the best of their ability. And so I think this is like an edge to almost getting more time back in your schedule, because you you do become a lot more effective. Lesley Logan 26:52  Yeah. I feel I like that you brought up that like the input I can I feel that, because sometimes I will make the mistake of like, well, let me go into Slack before I go do this project. And it's like.Molly Asplin 27:22  I know we've all done it. And then you're immediately like, why?Lesley Logan 27:26  Why did I do that? What was I doing? Because now my head is over here when I need to be on doing this, and I don't. I actually don't have the creative energy to do this. And so I also want to just like, say, like, it sounds a bit like you got to give your you had to give yourself time to be curious and be on experiment mode, which is where it's hard for the perfectionist, because, like, you're gonna it's gonna take some time to figure out the right schedule for you.Molly Asplin 27:49  It will, because everyone's like, responsibilities do look a little bit different if you can't focus, or you're just distracted constantly, like, you do really want to be thinking about these things, because that means, like, yeah, you're spending time doing stuff. But it doesn't sound like it's effective time. And so I just got, I got sick of having days like that, like, that's that's because that's why I've gotten good at this. Because I was tired of, like, letting my days pass by and being like, what? What did I even do? Lesley Logan 28:15  Yeah, yeah. I feel that I had a little extra time yesterday. I was like, wow, this one this week is really nice. I have extra time. And then I, like, looked ahead and I was like, oh, you know what, the next few days are a little full. What else is on the schedule for the rest of this week that I could just, like, do with this? I have energy right now. I've got energy. I've got creativity. I'm going to do that. You know, I could check the email one more time, but that's annoying. Like, I'm going to do that, and then I'm going to just take time to give myself something, because I know the next couple days are gonna be full, and it it took me a long time to get there. I used to have a very I mean, I used to take I used to have clients hour by hour by hour, and then, okay, I could only do this during this time. And it was, it worked. It was a hustle season that I could do. But at one point I was like, okay, when I am her and I get to be more in charge of my schedule. Here's what I want to do with these times. And so then when I had, like, a client late cancel, I was like, oh, during that time, I really wanted to be doing this. So I can go do that now, because I had a plan for it. So I think it's it takes time to get you to know yourself, and then also the seasons, because I imagine where you are the winter changes how you prioritize yourself, than you do in the summer.Molly Asplin 29:20  Yeah, it does. The seasons and, like, everyone has work seasons too, right? Like, work seasonality, you know, like, it's a little bit of a slower work season for me right now. It's, it's June and and so I have the ability to go for a run at 4pm that's cool, but that's not always the season. And so I think you just have to kind of honor what it looks like for you, but like, leverage it when you can.Lesley Logan 29:42  Yeah, yeah, yeah. And, and just like, how did you kind of get over the feeling? Like, did you ever feel selfish as you were doing these things? Did you ever feel guilty? Because, like, I'm not a mom, so I don't have mom guilt. But like, every one of my mom friends, it's like, the guilt is real, and I'm always like going, I think that there's like, I think you're not alone. But also, can we, like, ask someone like, what are we doing here? How did you get there, aside from, like, just like, you felt better when you did it?Molly Asplin 30:12  I started noticing, like, how much more patient I was with my kids. Like, I learned this very early on. I have three kids now, six, four and two, and I was like, you know, when I work out or when I get up an hour before them, ideally, in the morning, which is what I do most mornings. I am like, I'm ready when they wake up and when I don't, and they're like, my alarm. I'm crabby and snappy and impatient at them. And so, you know, there's this thing, like, you can't pour from an empty cup. Like, I feel like that's all over with motherhood. But it is, it is true. And like, the moment I work with moms on this, they start, like, carving out this time for themselves. They're like, wow. I'm like, such a better mom. I'm like, yeah, I told you, yeah. But it's, it is really real. And listen, there's seasons, like postpartum and where you just, you can't, like you're it's, you know, physically and sleep sometimes it's just, you got to honor those seasons. But once my kids are sleeping through the night, mostly, yeah, like, I don't have any issue being selfish with my time.Lesley Logan 31:18  Yeah, yeah. Well, I also thank you for sharing that, and also their ages. I appreciate that, because I think so many people will just make excuses. Oh, well, you know, they're probably older or, Oh, the six. That's a tight schedule there.Molly Asplin 31:32  It's rough. It's not always pretty, but even even 30 minutes, right? It's like, start small. It just makes such a difference. When I can hear myself think, ideally, move my body before they are up.Lesley Logan 31:44  Yeah, I appreciate you sharing that so much. I just, I have this I want to take away as many excuses from people putting up one more obstacle of why they have to wait or they can't have time in their day for themselves. And it's true, depending on the season you're in, maybe it's 15 minutes maybe, like, my girlfriend had twins, like, like, okay, you know, I was just like, we visited her, and I was like, I was like, don't even look at me. Just like, whatever you need to do. Like, do you want me to like, do I just look at the kid? Do I like, pat a cake? Like, what do we need? How can I actually help you so that you can have some time for yourself? But like, you have to know that that's a very different time than when they're two and when they're four, and then giving yourself greater, like easier expectations of yourself is also just so important. But at some point you have to go, Okay, if they're not infants, right? If they can tell you when they're hungry, what are you doing to make sure that you're you're the you you want to be with them or with your friends or your co workers or your family or anything like that?Molly Asplin 32:45  Yeah. And it's almost like the be her now Lesley, like, I just knew, like, if I could work on these things before kids, and then if I can work on those things while my kids are little. And, yeah, it's crazy. Like, well, that your habits transfer with you, you know? And then you can refine and tweak them and adjust them. But I just think the faster you can step into the things you really want to be doing, the better you can get on at it, versus just continuing to kick the can down the road.Lesley Logan 33:13  Yeah, I agree. What are you most excited about right now?Molly Asplin 33:17  Oh my gosh, I'm excited about so I went through a career transition about six months ago, and when I did it, I was like, you know what? I'm going to make this season more enjoyable than my last? Like, I think with every transition and pivot, we are smarter and wiser, and so I've just, I've been having a lot of fun in this season, like, with girlfriends, and I'm, like, traveling more, and that fills my cup. And, yeah, my youngest is two now, so I'm just excited about having more fun, yeah? Because I feel like there was a few years there where I just wasn't bringing the joy, you know.Lesley Logan 33:54  I mean, I think, like, especially when you had then, there had been, like, two and zero, you know, four, two and zero. Molly Asplin 34:00  That was not fun. Not fun. Lesley Logan 34:03  Yeah. So I kind of, I really do love that. And I love that, like, I love the reflection of, like, Okay, that was this. And what I want to bring into this season, want to be more fun. I think we all can even do that with any part of our life, right? Like, when we're recording this, it's beginning of summer, you know, summer solstice seven hasn't even happened yet, but, like, it's like, okay, so what I want the next thing to be? Like, how do I want this to be and then be her now? Like, what would that have to do? You know, we're, we're doing our summer tour. This will already have happened. And I literally said to the team. I said, okay, it can be a bigger tour, but here's what I need, right for that to happen, so that I I can have fun on it too. And it's not just work or, oh, where are the places? You know, you just start to learn things about yourself, and it's okay. I want for Q4 like, okay, it's gonna be a busy travel season. So what do I want to do in between? So I don't feel like I'm just traveling for work all the time, you know, reflection and then planning ahead. You know, these are important. These are things we have to do, things don't just happen to you.Molly Asplin 35:02  Yeah, well, and Lesley, that's so smart about planning ahead, like that. That's probably why you do feel so, like, able to recharge on a daily basis because you've planned for it. Lesley Logan 35:10  Yeah. Well, and that's, I mean, like, I learned a long time ago, and I'm sure the same, like, if it's not in the schedule it doesn't get done, right? Like, it's, it's not a to do list thing to me, like, I don't even make to do lists anymore. I have ADHD I'll never look at them again. So I already learned that about myself. But if it's not in the actual schedule, then it won't get done. And so I have to go, Okay, if you want me to write blog posts, or if you want me to write these things, there has to be a block of time in there. Oh, if I want to recharge, what does that look like and like where can it put in the calendar? And if it's not able to get in the calendar, I also have had to learn, like, and this is the recovering people pleaser, you know, like the recovering firstborn daughter who does everything right. Like, what can I actually go back and say, I can't do that today? Can I do it tomorrow? You know? Like, hey. Molly Asplin 35:56  Like setting the boundary. Lesley Logan 35:57  Because sometimes you commit to something and you're like, oh, wow, I could do that today, but it's not gonna be my best work, or it's gonna feel rushed, but if I had if I could do it tomorrow, you know? And so sometimes I just, my husband is the person who gave me the permission. He was like, just ask, or just say, we'll do it we have to do it next week. So sorry. Like, just apologize. And I was like, you can do that. You can, you can just, like, change it, but I can do that. And a lot sometimes you can't, like, sometimes there's deadlines and things are due, but a lot of times I've looked at things going, Oh, we could actually move that to tomorrow. We really, really can't, if we're really honest with ourself, that means we get to do something so well, I'm excited for you. That's something to be really excited about. We're gonna take a brief break and then find out how people can find you and learn more from you and your amazing podcast. Molly Asplin 36:43  Awesome. Lesley Logan 36:43  All right, Molly, where do you hang out? Where? What's your podcast? Where's your website? Where can people learn more from you and work with you?Molly Asplin 36:52  Yeah, so you can go to mollyasplin.com that is my website, and shares a little bit more about me there. I'm on Instagram most days. Molly.Asplin. And then I was gonna grab this. I this is a really good for, like, morning routine, your ins and you're outs for, like, the month I fill, I fill it out on a monthly basis, called The Momentum Builder of like, a free printable. And so if you like this kind of thing, I do. Lesley Logan 37:16  Oh, everyone loves this kind of thing. Molly Asplin 37:18  Yeah, it's mollyasplin.com/momentum so and you can just download it there and and print it out, but that does kind of help me. Like, what am I focused on this month? Like, what are the main like, needle movers and the goals? So I think that's helpful.Lesley Logan 37:33  I promise you that our listeners love that. Because, first of all, they're always asking, like, what's your favorite? Sorry, that's, that's Bayon and letting us know he's he's here a little in the background. They always like, what's your favorite planner? And I'm like, well, I can't really read my own writing, and I'm left handed, so the binding is just not helpful. But that a printable like that I can work with. Molly Asplin 37:53  Well and then you can do a new one each month, because it's like, okay, wait, fresh start, you know? And you can start in the middle of the month too. You can start whenever. Lesley Logan 37:56  Can start whatever. That's for the perfectionist. You can start whenever. You can start on a full moon, you can start on a new moon, you can start on a quarter moon. I love that so much. And your podcast is Dream It, Do It, correct?Molly Asplin 38:10  Yeah, podcast, Dream It, Do It. And Lesley was just on there, so go listen to her interview. But yeah, that's we share a lot of high achieving tips, business tips, things like that, productivity.Lesley Logan 38:20  Oh, I love it so much. I know you all are listening to make sure you go check that out. Okay, you've actually given us a ton of great stuff. But I love to end the show on bold, executable, intrinsic or targeted steps people can take to be it till they see it. What do you have for us?Molly Asplin 38:33  I think, think about the thing that you have said you wanted to do in the future, and, like, try to make a leap for it today. And that doesn't mean like writing it down or talking to your friend about it. It means like actually doing it, like sending the email, hiring the coach, making the phone call, going for a run, like whatever it like, take the actual action, and don't let that get covered up and just like the plans and the thinking about it.Lesley Logan 39:03  I like that. I actually, I have a little recent story that help people see that in another way. I had, a year ago, I was like, I'm tired of making up my own gym workouts. Like I have to do, I have to think about people's Pilates workouts, all these things, like, I'm tired of it. And so I started like, thinking, like, thinking, like, do I want to hire a trainer? What do I do? And I found this person online that I really liked, and I was like, okay, I could just hire them, or I'm going to do their workouts that they've posted online. And so I did that for a long time. I was like, oh, I'm getting great results with this. Okay, so now I'm going to work on hiring them. So I, like, build up the application. So like, you know, there's most of these things you want to do, you have to fill out an application or you have to do some sort of thing. And so I did that step, and then she came back to me like, it was like, two weeks later. So it was not like everything happened tomorrow, but it allowed me to have some time and runway with with doing the thing, being her, with the potential trainer, with her work, and then taking the next step. And then she called me back, and then she said okay, we'll start on these two weeks that I was able to plan. Because it wasn't tomorrow. It was like, Oh, it was going to be in two weeks. So in two weeks from now, I can set aside time on my calendar for this I could set aside the money for this investment. I could do all this stuff. And so I think, what a great idea, whatever the thing is you want to do, take an action today. I think that's really, I would think that's a very bold and executable thing you guys could do.Molly Asplin 40:14  I love it. I love your example. Lesley, that's spot on.Lesley Logan 39:04  Thanks. Yeah, it was. I was like, really, like, okay, really proud of myself. Because sometimes I'm a person who's like, I'm just gonna do it. I like that. But then it's like, sometimes I wonder, like, did I end up the right person? Did I get the right thing? And so I kind of tried it out a different way, like, well, what if I be it till I see it as a person who, like, you know, interviews the person a little bit longer and tries it out and see if yeah, that's how I did it. So you're amazing, Molly. You guys, how are you going to use these tips in your life? Please tag Molly Asplin. Tag the Be It Pod.

A powerful conversation with Hilary Momberger-Powers on how unresolved trauma fuels overachievement and control, and how true empowerment comes from inner safety, self-responsibility, and transforming pain into purpose. 5 Key Takeaways Trauma isn't just what happened — it's how it shifted your internal “survival wiring.” Overachieving, people-pleasing, isolating, or controlling are all trauma responses. If you're always in a hurry, you may be operating from trauma — not alignment. True empowerment feels grounded, not frantic. Healing begins the moment you say, “I need help.” Exposing hidden fears and taking responsibility (without self-blame) is where real transformation starts. Confidence is rooted in safety, not control. When you stabilize your body, mind, and spirit, you stop reacting to the world and start leading from calm strength. Your pain can become your purpose. When you stop identifying as a victim and start asking, “What do I get to learn from this?” trauma becomes the very thing that empowers you to help others thrive.

Send a textIn this episode of The Remarkable People Podcast, host David Pasqualone interviews author and entrepreneur Sandra Lena Silverman, a co-founder of a large mortgage business and mother of two, about her life story and the lessons she wants listeners to apply—especially learning to love themselves. Sandra shares being adopted as an infant, childhood molestation that later manifested as a severe fear of elevators, and a lifelong pattern of perfectionism and overachieving. She recounts a difficult marriage marked by gaslighting, manipulation, and emotional abuse from a narcissistic husband, including constant body-shaming that contributed to her pursuit of numerous cosmetic procedures and surgeries. Sandra describes how the abuse escalated after pregnancy, the onset of infidelity, multiple separations (including in 2006, 2016, and 2023), and her decision to end the cycle with a final separation in 2024 and ongoing divorce proceedings. She explains how prolonged stress affected her health—high cortisol, inflammation, shaking—and how those symptoms improved after leaving. Sandra discusses warning signs such as love bombing, excuses, and blame-shifting, emphasizes the need for strong boundaries, and updates listeners on her current work: her book deal for three books (including the republished From Bullshit to Botox and a forthcoming second book focused on her marriage and narcissism), her show Parties Over, and her social media presence where people can connect with her.01:50 What You'll Learn Today: Loving Yourself02:56 Adopted in Maryland: Family, Identity, and Early Questions04:58 Childhood Trauma Revealed: Molestation, Memory, and Finding Her Birth Mother06:21 The Trauma Shows Up Later: Claustrophobia & Fear of Elevators08:18 Perfectionism and Overachieving to Earn Love09:37 Meeting Her Ex: The First Body-Shaming Comment10:49 Building a Business + The First Surgery (and the Put-Downs Continue)14:04 Pregnancy, Cruelty, and the Moment She Saw the “Monster”16:13 Affairs, Separations, and the Crossroads She Didn't Leave19:05 Hard-Won Warning: Without Boundaries, It Only Gets Worse20:11 Breaking the Cycle: Final Separation & Choosing Yourself22:13 Healing After Abuse: Epiphanies, Boundaries, and Health Recovery25:02 Kids, Co-Parenting, and Protecting Them from Dysfunction26:21 Red Flags of Narcissism: Love Bombing, Gaslighting, and Blame-Shifting29:40 Life After Leaving: Books, Podcast, New Opportunities, and Independence32:50 Beauty vs. Self-Worth: Elective Surgery, Internal Work, and Doing It for You35:00 Faith, Divorce, and Where to Find Sandra + Final Wrap-Up37:25 Podcast Closing Message: Feedback, Sharing, and Living the MissionREMARKABLE SPECIAL OFFER: Save Big on Your Console Vault In-Vehicle Safe.

What would change if you stopped agreeing to take on everything at work? If you have perfectionist and overachiever tendencies like I do, it's possible this question has never even occurred to you. In the race to the top, it can feel like everything is urgent and our responsibility. But there's a better way. A new trend floating around social media recently caught my attention, and it's called “strategic detachment.” In this episode, I take a look at a more thoughtful approach to workload management and delegation, especially as it applies to team leaders. The professional landscape is transforming so rapidly in so many ways—this might just be the trend we need to survive 2026.Hop off the overachieving hamster wheel and onto your true career trajectory. Tune in to learn:The unintended consequences leaders create when they won't step back;What strategic detachment really means (and what it doesn't);Why you might need to examine your fear to avoid burning out.Related Links:Episode 403, How First-Time Managers Can Embrace Coaching - https://www.bossedup.org/podcast/episode403Episode 368, What Quiet Quitting Can Help…or Hurt - https://www.bossedup.org/podcast/episode368LEVEL UP: a Leadership Accelerator for Women on the Rise - https://www.bossedup.org/levelupBossed Up Courage Community - https://www.facebook.com/groups/927776673968737/Bossed Up LinkedIn Group - https://www.linkedin.com/groups/7071888/ Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

I'm Lesley Logan, Pilates instructor and fitness business coach. I've trained thousands of people around the world and the number one thing I see stopping people from achieving anything is self-doubt. My friends, action brings clarity and it's the antidote to fear. Each week, my guest will bring bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and Be It Till You See It. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started.Lesley Logan 0:50  Hello, Be It babe. How are you? Oh my gosh. Welcome back to the Be It Till You See It Podcast. You know, normally we do interviews on Tuesdays and recaps on Thursdays and FYFs on Fridays, and everyone's well, I just want to do like a topic, because we've had some amazing guests on it, and I want to revisit that with you, right? I think it'd be a lot of fun. So in doing that, I want us to discuss burnout. We've have a self-love series, we have a habit series. And you know, something that I get a lot from the women that listen this podcast and we work with is just like, the difficulty in preventing burnout, and also, just like, are they ever not burned out and all that good stuff? Because in being it until you see it, it's really easy for y'all to be just overachievers at it, and just like, go harder than one needs to, right? And so I want to just give us. I want us to be on. I want us to have the tools to be it until we see it. And that means understanding burnout and how to prevent it. So this episode will be, what is burnout, so we can be really clear about what it is. I think it's important to be able to name something versus like, what's depression, what's overwhelm, things like that. And then also the second episode, beyond like preventions, like things you can actually do, because you guys are action takers, and I love that so much. Lesley Logan 2:05  So what is burnout? Why do we have burnout? What does it look like? That's what this episode is. If you're like Lesley, I've got it. Well, you can wait till Thursday. But just in case, you know, I think it's important to go over this. And I saw this quote, yeah, as I was preparing for this episode, and it said from the Mad Hatter, and it said, you've lost your muchness. You used to be much, muchier. And I think that, like that can be a sign of burnout, if you, like, lost your muchness, right? But get this the World Health Organization (WHO), actually has defined what burnout is. And so I think that's great. I think, like, let's go with the science. The burnout is a syndrome tied to unsuccessfully managed workplace stress. Like, obviously it can be personal stuff too, so well. But like, WHO is doing this from this part. So it's made up of three parts, exhaustion, feeling distant or cynical towards your job and reduced performance at work. Dr. Ashley, who has since become an expert on this topic, and is a self-proclaimed burnout doctor, she said, I think you can get burnout from any chronic stress situation. So I think that that is helpful, because, like, the simpler sentence, what WHO was trying to say, is any chronic stress situation that can provide burnout. And this is interesting you guys, because it's so easy for us to love what we're doing, but create chronic, chronic stress around it, and so then we burn out from the thing we love doing. And we'll talk about why that happens. So burnout is serious. In severe cases, it can cause premature aging of the brain. This is, this is insanity to me, because, like, oh my God, we cannot let our brains age sooner than they need to, and if you're under 45 your chance of dying from all causes goes up. I mean, let that just sink in, and it's indicated by a study they did a scientific journal, PLO S1, Dr. Ashley estimates it can take one to three years to recover from burnout. You know, as a kid, I remember like, my mom had a job that, like, was really stressful for her, and she slept the whole summer. And I remember my dad having to, like, leave work on stress leave like these it can take one to three years recover, and I do believe it did for both of them. So it's really, really important that we don't just go, oh, this is the busy season I'm in, you know, and dismiss it like we should be stronger and we shouldn't be feeling this way. Lesley Logan 4:25  Why is burnout happening more often? So, increase caregiver and emotional labor. So obviously, this episode, this podcast, is really designed for women. We have few good men who listen. Thank you so much. And it is so we've mostly women listeners. So I'm just going to talk about the women's aspect of burnout. So women often carry the mental load for their households. And this is so true. I see it in a lot of my friends who are moms, you know, like they remember everything. They're coordinating the childcare, they're managing family needs and often caring for aging parents. They also frequently are expected to manage the emotions of those around them at both at work and at home. Home, which is why, like it's possible to have a stressful job, but then if your home life is also demanding of you, then it like you don't have a refuge, right? And so that can be really, really difficult. Cultural expectations, the style norms, can pressure women to be nurturers, always available and have to have it all, creating unrealistic standards and feelings of inadequacy when these expectations aren't met. And this is also something that I've seen because, to be honest, I have a I have some friends, I've like, friends in air quotes that I've known from groups that we have been in, and I'm watching their posts on Instagram, and they're just like, so beautiful all the time, so put together. Even when they're like, I'm not put together, they're so put together. Like, their background is so beautiful, their house is so well decorated, and they're showing like, oh, I can be this, like, person who, like, makes sourdough, and I also am a badass in the workplace. That's amazing. That's wonderful. I hope they're so happy, but also, like, it can set up an expectation that we should all be feeling the same way as them, in the same place of our life. And like, that's just not the case, right? We don't all have the same 24 hours in a day. So the always on culture, a sense of constant responsibility, combined with social media pressure to maintain a perfect image contributes to a feeling of being always on and unable to truly rest. Lesley Logan 6:13  This is something I have really had to grapple with in the last five years, because a lot of the work that I do is on camera, you know? And I always was like, Oh, my God, maybe I have to, like, I have to, like, get ready. I have to do my makeup. I didn't even finish it today. If you're watching this on the YouTube channel, like, I, like, I started this recording, like, oh, we have no mascara on. Like, I got really good at going, you know what? I have to put out this content. I have to do all this stuff for the work that we do, that I that I that I created because I love this podcast, I love the memberships that I have, but I cannot also expect myself to be, in air quotes, on all the time. And so first of all, since day one, I've always just been myself online. I don't really know how to be anything else. And two, that means I don't match I don't always have my hair done, I don't always have these things. And so by just being myself, it has really helped me overcome the Always On pressures that can be out there. But if you are feeling that like that is a real pressure that is out there. And I understand that, and I it's difficult, but I hope that you can truly allow yourself to be yourself and everywhere you are and and you're allowed to have feelings and things like that. But if your workplace doesn't allow that, if, if the standards you set for yourself don't allow for that, if the people in your life don't allow for that, that can that means that you're always on, and that can be a pressure that's causing burnout in your life. Lesley Logan 7:26  So there are also some workplace factors that I think are really important to go over. Obviously, some of you who are listening don't have the opportunity to control the workplace. Some of you have created your own workplace. And so if any of these factors are in your workplace you created, we definitely want to, you know, unravel that if you have these factors in the workplace that you are in, then I definitely think it's worth going okay, at least I can pinpoint part of where this burnout is coming from. So inequitable workloads, women may face additional work outside of their formal roles, such as supporting colleagues, and have less flexibility in their jobs. We had an FYF of a few weeks back where I actually discussed, like, how men are given workplace reviews and women are given workplace reviews, and it's really annoying, because women's workplace reviews are often on, like, their personality versus like, the actual job that they did. So this is this can create chronic stress in the situation at your work. Couple that with like, what you've got going on at home, and you have a recipe for burnout, right? Gender pay and inequality. The gender wage gap and workplace discrimination creates stress, while limited career advancement opportunities and a lack of recognition for contributions exacerbate burnout. I mean, we all are aware that women are not paid the same amount as men, and then you add in race, and that is, it makes it even more of a pay gap. So if you happen to be a woman of a of color, you all you already are probably experiencing more factors towards your burnout. And so if you're feeling it like it's real, right? And I hate that for you, but I also think it's important that we don't deny that that's what's going on. And then lack of support. In professional environments, a lack of support from senior leaders and gender biases can make burnout more likely in this, yeah, lack of support in general, in life, can create burnout like it's so I have ADHD, so it's not easy for me to ask for help. I have to like practice. And the reality is is like, we all need it. We all need help. No one is supposed to do life alone. Lesley Logan 9:18  And then I just want to add this from Psychology Today, because in my research for this, I found a couple things that made me think of you. So y'all are high achievers. There's nothing wrong being a high achiever, right? Overachieving is exhausting. High achieving, nothing wrong with it, but high achieving women are at a greater risk of burnout and identity erosion due to chronic self-neglect. And you know, on this podcast, we talk a lot about prioritizing yourself first, so that that could be something that is actually causing the burnout. You could love what you do. You could love the family you have, but if you're and you probably do, but if you are lacking that prioritization of self and neglecting you, then you're going to, even with all the things you love, create burnout experience and then burnout why it's so, so important to pay attention to is that burnout can lead to anxiety, depression and a loss of personal meaning, connection. That's a big deal. It's a big deal. Not only are you not able to even have anything to be it till you see, but it can cause you to have missed experiences and relationships that that you probably care so much about, partners, family members, children, things like that. So it's really, really important that we address burnout and that we discuss, like, what it looks like, so that we can prevent it, and we'll talk about that in the next episode. Lesley Logan 10:28  But some common signs, just in case you're like, okay, I don't have it. So signs of burnout in women may include chronic fatigue, decreased motivation, feelings of inefficiency, increased irritability, disrupted sleep patterns, withdraw from social activities. So obviously these things can also look like perimenopause. They can look like depression. But you know, we had, we had somebody on the pod who is like, I'm not depressed, right? Not depressed, but I'm not fulfilled. So it, I think that it's important to be like, wow, if I know I'm not depressed, if I don't feel that way, but I have increased irritability, and I'm withdrawing from social activities. You know, if I'm decreasing motivation, I'm usually a very motivated person, there's something going on. And instead of thinking there's something wrong with you, we can look around what's going on in my world that is causing these things that are not normal for me. So with all that, you know, I definitely have had burnout in my life, you know, like we talk not much in recent past, because I'm because I've gotten so good at spotting what it looks like in my body and in my life and how I'm reacting to things. But I remember back in probably right before our wedding, I was, it was my day off, and I was driving to the mall to go buy something for myself. I were going to a party. I was like, I'm gonna go buy this thing. Like, it should be so exciting. It should be so fun. And I saw an email pop up, you know, those like little notifications on this email pop up, and it just sent me into having a total anxiety. I don't have anxiety, sent me to total anxiety attack. I had to pull over, had to call Brad, you know. And what we discovered is that, like, you just sit down and like, actually look at what's going on. And my workplace experience was just so stressful, even though I loved what I did, I love the people I worked with. I love teaching. I love being a teacher. I loved all of it, but the truth is, is that the people around me were creating a chronic stress experience. And so we got really clear on the numbers that I needed to make in my personal business, and we made a plan, and I worked that plan, and I was able to get out of that job, and I was able to notice, oh, oh, here are the things I am creating chronic stress in my own situation that I created myself. And so you're not going to be perfect at stopping before burnout, but if you can notice what it feels like in your body and how it how it is presenting itself, it makes it easier. Lesley Logan 12:54  So I'm gonna wrap up the episode here, because I know you're really busy, and I don't want this podcast to be part of the chronic stress that you have in your life. So thank you so much for listening to this series, all the series. If you are enjoying the series we're doing, I would love to know the topic you want us to like, do a little more research on, have a little more talk about it. Or if there's guests that you want to like us to have on the pod, you can definitely send those in. Mean the world to me if you leave a review and share this with a friend who needs to hear it, maybe you have a friend who's like, exhibiting all these signs, and it would just be helpful for them to be like, oh, nothing wrong with me. I'm just in a really crappy situation that is causing this kind of feeling and behavior in my body, in my life, and I there's that means we, once we know that, once we're aware, that we can make changes. We can't make changes if we're not aware, right? So thank you so much. And until next time, Be It Till You See It. Lesley Logan 13:40  That's all I got for this episode of the Be It Till You See It Podcast.

In this episode, Angélique Binet explores why so many overachieving women entrepreneurs hide, and how it usually starts with an early, invisible question: “Who did I have to be to get love and validation?”You'll hear how that old wiring can create “high-functioning” patterns like overachieving, people-pleasing, overthinking, and hyper-independence, and how those patterns show up in business as exhaustion, undercharging, and resistance to receiving support (and money).This is a nervous-system-aware reframe of visibility: not just “post more,” but see yourself, receive help, and lead from self-trust so your visibility can finally pay.===Book a 15/20-minute Visibility Audit with Online Visibility Strategist Angélique Binet - the Founder of Social Media Love by clicking here: https://abinet.lpages.co/your-voice-is-your-power-audit/If you're a seasoned woman entrepreneur with big dreams focused on becoming more V.I.S.I.B.L.E online, then you maybe a few practices away from growing your business & revenue using online marketing in a way that feels authentic to you.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik sits down with "Heather-Ann" Ferri to unpack what it really means to move from surviving a family story to consciously rewriting your legacy. Heather-Ann shares how childhood trauma and generational patterns can shape our nervous system, self-worth, relationships, and even the way we chase achievement for approval. The conversation stays practical. Breathwork as a foundation for nervous system regulation. Journaling as a tool to spot patterns and reclaim your voice. A realistic take on healing that is not linear, not pretty, but absolutely possible. If you feel stuck in survival mode, overachieving, people-pleasing, or carrying a “heavy family story,” this episode gives you a clear starting point. About the Guest: Heather-Ann Ferri is an author, speaker, healer, and educator working at the intersection of trauma recovery, self-leadership, and spiritual growth. Her upcoming book, Transcending Victim to Goddess, blends memoir with a practical self-love and healing framework designed to help readers disrupt generational cycles and rebuild from the inside out. Key Takeaways: “Victim to goddess” is not a vibe. It is a decision to face what happened, name the patterns, and reclaim your identity without letting family systems define you. Healing is not linear. Expect layers. Progress can look like getting out of bed and choosing not to escape your life today. Breathwork is the baseline tool. Changing breath patterns helps change stress patterns, emotional reactivity, and survival responses. Start simple. Notice if your inhale feels tight. Ask what you struggle to receive, not just what you give. Overachieving and people-pleasing can be trauma strategies. Breath and body awareness help you stop outsourcing worth to performance. Journaling works best when you have prompts. If you do not know what to ask yourself, guided questions reduce overwhelm and create structure. Quiet time is not optional if you want change. Reflection, meditation, and writing help you hear your inner compass again. Creative expression counts as healing. Five minutes of dancing, singing, drawing, walking, or play can reconnect you to “I am enough.” You can rewrite legacy without waiting for the perfect therapist. Start with one breath and one honest page.

In this episode of The Tech Leader's Playbook, Keren discusses the concepts of toxic ambition and workaholism, exploring how they manifest in leadership and personal life. She shares her journey to becoming a coach and author, emphasizing the importance of aligning personal choices with one's true self. The discussion dives into the 'gilded cage' of success, where achievements can lead to feelings of entrapment. Keren highlights the significance of systems for well-being and the pervasive nature of imposter syndrome among successful individuals. The conversation concludes with insights on finding balance in leadership styles and the need for a more trusting and open organizational culture. In this conversation, we dive into the complexities of leadership, emphasizing the balance between being nice and maintaining control, the loneliness that often accompanies leadership roles, and the hidden struggles that successful individuals face.

Let's be real: some of us aren't just experiencing burnout—we're perfecting it. Overachieving our way into exhaustion. Piling on responsibilities like it's an Olympic sport. And believing that if we just get it right enough, peace and happiness will magically follow. In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Tiffany Moon, a board-certified anesthesiologist, CEO, speaker, entrepreneur, wine and candle maker (yes, really), and reality TV alum—basically a walking resume of overachievement. But she's also someone who knows what it feels like to chase perfection at the expense of joy—and how to break free from it. Her book, Joy Prescriptions, explores the cost of perfectionism and what it really takes to reclaim your happiness. Together, we're talking burnout, boundaries, high-achieving pressure, and how to stop proving your worth through productivity. In This Episode, We Cover: ✅ What perfectionist burnout really looks like (and why it's so sneaky) ✅ The hidden cost of tying your identity to achievement ✅ Why rest is not a reward—it's a requirement ✅ Practical ways to redefine success without burning out If you're tired of proving, pushing, or performing your way to “enough”—this one's for you.

"Getting things done": it's a mantra for many, but what happens when it becomes a burden? In this episode, we sit down with author, performer, and self-proclaimed overachiever Amy Wilson to untangle the messy web of perfectionism, people-pleasing, and the endless pursuit of "more." Drawing from her eye-opening book, “Happy to Help: Adventures of a People Pleaser,” Amy shares her journey from being the person who could handle everything to realizing that our worth isn't defined by what we can do for others. Tune in as Erin and Amy explore why high-achievers—especially women—often take on more than their fair share and the power in stepping back and saying “enough”. We discuss:The hidden cost of being “highly capable”—why taking on too much responsibility can be a fast track to burnout.Why "people pleaser" and "perfectionist" are loaded (and gendered) labels that set us up for exhaustion and resentment.How birth order can shape self-sacrificing and accommodating tendencies (hello, eldest daughters!).The power of letting go—why some things simply can't be fixed, no matter how hard you try.The myth that quitting equals failure and why knowing when to walk away is just as important as perseverance.Why being indispensable doesn't mean being secure and how overachieving at work and in relationships can lead to being overlooked and undervalued.How to recognize life's warning signs before they escalate into painful wake-up calls.OUR GUEST: Amy Wilson is the author of the memoir When Did I Get Like This? And her latest book, Happy to Help. Since 2016 she has been the co-host of the Webby-honored podcast What Fresh Hell: Laughing in the Face of Motherhood.
