In this episode of the HR Leaders Podcast, we speak with Heidi Barnett, President of Talent Acquisition at isolved, about how AI is reshaping recruiting and why candidate experience now matters more than ever. Heidi shares her journey from marketing into HR tech leadership and explains why the best recruiters today act more like growth leaders. She discusses the shift from sourcing to screening, why resumes are becoming obsolete, and how AI exposes broken hiring processes. The conversation explores how TA teams can reduce burnout, partner better with CHROs, and reimagine hiring from the ground up in the age of AI.
Isn't it fascinating that we can work so hard and do all of the things, yet still feel a lack of fulfillment? And when we do have those moments of fulfillment, we often credit it to hustling and overachieving, when that's not actually where it's coming from. Your next level of success is not going to come from pushing harder or spreading yourself more thin; it is going to come as you can slow down and hold still long enough for your brilliance to begin to shine.Today, we are talking about a topic very close to my heart: wholeness over hustle–and how finding balance in life allows you to heal from burnout. This theme has been woven throughout this podcast over the years, but I wanted to explore it exclusively today for one very special reason. The book I have co-authored with 12 of my Master Coaches, She Rises: Insights and Wisdom from the Women of the Masterful Coach Collective, is coming out this month, and my chapter is all about why prioritizing wholeness over hustle needs to be the new standard for high-achieving women who want to actually create the life they desire.For too long, hustle culture has conditioned us to believe that we must constantly do more. Not only are we supposed to work harder when it comes to business and finances, but in our personal lives as well. There is pressure—especially for women—to be the glue holding everything together. This is not sustainable, and it's ultimately causing unbelievably high levels of stress in more of us every day. If you are a high achiever and you're ready to feel at peace, deeply alive, and actually fulfilled, instead of like you're always running on empty, this episode is truly for you.When you intentionally make space in your life for more downtime and fewer things on your to-do list, not only will you be able to achieve more, but you will connect more in relationships and live the fullest, richest life possible. Truly mastering yourself, your life, and your emotions comes when you know your worth beyond the confines of hustle culture and can cultivate the stillness necessary for real success. I've witnessed the power of this magical secret to personal fulfillment firsthand, and I'm passionate about teaching each of you to achieve it too. Let's do it!What you'll learn:How my chapter of She Rises provides specific evidence of how slowing down is a strategy for successWhy you can break the pattern of overachieving when you value yourself moreWhat over-responsibility means and a surprising statistic about how it impacts womenHow to begin to know your worth outside of hustle cultureWhy inspiration and creativity can't flourish when you are overwhelmed by trying to prove yourselfYou can read the full show notes here.Connect with Molly ClaireThe new book, She Rises: Insights and Wisdom from the Women of the Masterful Coach Collective, is coming soon!

Let's be real: growing a six-figure service business isn't just about better content or sexier sales pages. It's about knowing what's actually in your way… and having a plan to move through it.In this episode, I'm walking you through the six exact obstacles that every service provider will hit on the road to building a six-figure business—because they're not glitches in the system, they are the system.These are the places you'll feel stuck, frustrated, or like, “Wait… am I even cut out for this?” But I want to show you how to name what's going on so you can stop spinning and start seeing real traction.This episode is for you if:You're getting clients but it still feels chaotic or randomYou're burned out or underchargingYou're tired of guessing what's “not working”You want a roadmap that actually makes senseThese six checkpoints are predictable.
