Ready to regain your confidence and clarity during divorce? Join Karen McMahon's High Conflict Divorce Support Group—a 6-session group coaching program designed to help you manage triggers, set boundaries, and take back control.  -- 2024 cracked me open. It was one of the hardest years I've lived through—personally and professionally. I felt misaligned with my values, burned out in my work, and disconnected from the joy and freedom I preach to others. But in the summer, I read The Big Leap, and something shifted. I started a year-long commitment to stepping into my Zone of Genius, facing my Upper Limit Problems head-on, and saying YES to what scared me most… and life hasn't been the same since. In this solo episode, I take you behind the scenes of my Big Leap year. I talk about dating again after a decade (gulp!), redefining fun, getting back on my bike (and maybe soon my rollerblades), losing 15 pounds not from restriction, but from celebrating myself differently. I share how I moved from wine on weekdays to novels on the beach, from overworking to letting my work flow from joy. I even caught myself starting arguments in my head—just to feed my old programming. The self-awareness has been wild...and so freeing. And yes, we talk business too. I had tantrums. I doubted. But I kept moving forward. I've reconnected with the why behind Journey Beyond Divorce, and am reimagining the how. I'm sharing what's lighting me up: podcasting, group programs, deep partnerships, and creating space for you to take your Big Leap too. This isn't just my story—it's an invitation for you to leap right alongside me.

 In this inspiring conversation, Tali Slonim, CEO and founder of The Stretcher and author of "Unleash Your Talent," shares her journey from corporate HR executive to entrepreneur, coach, and author. Together, Chedva and Tali explore the concept of the "zone of genius" - that sweet spot where passion meets ability - and how major life changes like divorce, loss, and global events can force us to reevaluate our priorities. Tali opens up about her transformation from workaholic to someone who has found sustainable success by questioning traditional work paradigms and asking herself what's truly right for her. The conversation touches on the power of daily writing, the importance of bringing your whole self to work, and how vulnerability and authenticity in business can actually increase credibility and trust. Key Topics: The zone of genius: where passion and ability intersect Transitioning from corporate workaholic to balanced entrepreneur How major life events (divorce, loss, COVID, war) reshape priorities The slash (multi-hyphenate)  lifestyle: managing multiple roles and identities Daily writing as a practice for self-discovery and connection Bringing authenticity and vulnerability to professional spaces The importance of questioning "what's right for me" vs. external expectations How personal tragedies can provide life perspective and proportionality Writing a book in three months while in flow state Creating physical spaces that reflect and support your work Notable Quotes: "When you work in what you're passionate about, it only looks like work. It doesn't feel like work." "We are both recovered workaholics." "On your stone, no one writes 'she didn't spend enough time at work' or 'she was a great HR executive.' People always talk about the kind of friend you were, about the kind of mother, the kind of person you were." "Once you're in [the zone of genius], it almost feels like you're volunteering, because it's stuff that you would be ready to do for free." "Work is important but it's not everything... It's part of my life. I'm also other things. It's not 100% of my identity."   Tali's Powerful Question: "What's truly right for me? What's right for my values, what's right for my long-term journey, what makes me feel good even physically."

I'm so excited for you to hear this conversation with Amina AlTai. She's enthusiastic, warm, and wicked smart, and her work around ambition is deeply important. Amina is a holistic career coach and chronic illness advocate who helps leaders lead from their brilliance and truth. Her new book, The Ambition Trap, reframes what ambition means, and how it can be a tool for healing and wholeness instead of burnout and over-functioning. We discuss the two types of ambition: the kind rooted in purpose and values, and the kind that comes from pain, people-pleasing, and old wounds. Plus, Amina shares her own story about autoimmune diagnoses and near organ failure; and how they shaped the framework she now teaches.   As Amina says, “Ambition is the desire to grow,”and anything is possible with your ambition when it's coming from that place of purpose and wholeness. You'll hear us talk about: Ambition rooted in purpose vs. ambition driven by family or societal expectations (aka purposeful ambition vs. painful ambition) (6:13) Why overworking is often a systemic and economic issue, plus signs you're caught in the cycle and how to break free (10:25) What it means to live above the resentment line and how it applies to your professional life (12:56) The three E's of identifying your zone of genius: excellence, energy, and ease and how they help align your career with your true self (15:25) How to shift your perspective around the word ambition, especially if it's always felt a little uncomfortable (21:39) Practical strategies to prevent burnout while still pursuing your goals (24:08) The internalized beliefs that equate your worth with your work and how core belief and shadow work can help flip the script (32:53) Resources: Rythmia Retreat Andrea on Instagram @heyandreaowenMy Ketamine Therapy Journey secret podcast seriesAmina's websiteAmina's book, The Ambition Trap: How to Stop Chasing and Start Living Amina on Instagram @aminaaltaiThe Big Leap, Gay Hendricks Stop Telling Women They Have Imposter Syndrome, Ruchika Tulshyan and Jodi-Ann Burey, Harvard Business Review Book recommendations:I love a good personal development book, and you do too, right?

Episode 144: Finding Your Zone of Genius Through Culturally Immersive Travel with Kelsey Wilson & Amanda Cisneros Have you ever dreamed of experiencing travel in a way that fully immerses you in another culture—where you're not just a visitor, but an active participant in the local community? That's exactly what Kelsey Wilson and Amanda Cisneros have built with Travec Travel, a company specializing in culturally immersive travel for families and individuals. But beyond that, their journey is an inspiring look at how leaning into your Zone of Genius can create a career and life that feel deeply fulfilling. In this episode of The Innovative Therapist Podcast, we explore how Kelsey and Amanda discovered their unique strengths and built a business that aligns with their passions. We'll also discuss how immersive travel experiences can be life-changing—not just for their clients, but for them as entrepreneurs. How Travec Travel Began: A Business Built on Zone of Genius Kelsey and Amanda's partnership was almost serendipitous—what they call an “arranged marriage” of entrepreneurship. Though they didn't know each other long before starting the company, their shared passion for travel, language, and culture quickly solidified their vision. Amanda, a seasoned Spanish teacher, had extensive experience leading student trips abroad, but she always dreamed of expanding that model to families. Her Zone of Genius is in crafting detailed itineraries, logistics, and building deep connections between travelers and local cultures. Meanwhile, Kelsey had worked in global travel sales and had the entrepreneurial spirit to bring that vision to life. Her Zone of Genius lies in helping potential clients find the right travel experience for them, empowering them to believe in themselves and take the leap. Together, they launched Travec Travel just two and a half years ago, and since then, they've built a company that fosters meaningful, intentional travel experiences. What Makes Travec Travel Unique? Unlike traditional travel companies that often cater to tourists without deep cultural immersion, Travec Travel offers: Culturally immersive experiences where travelers live like locals, stay in apartments rather than hotels, and engage in daily life activities like grocery shopping and cooking. City Friends & Hosts, ensuring travelers are connected with local families who introduce them to the authentic culture. Opportunities for language immersion, including Spanish classes and homestays where kids and adults alike can practice their skills in real-world settings. Family-friendly itineraries, designed for parents traveling with children, making cultural immersion accessible without the stress of planning every detail. The Evolution of Their Business Travec Travel has evolved significantly since its launch. Initially, the founders thought they would primarily work with families looking to live abroad long-term. However, they found that their real niche was in planning short-term, intentional family travel. Through collaboration with schools, Travec Travel now organizes capstone trips for students in Spanish immersion programs, as well as customized experiences for individuals and families looking for meaningful, connected travel. Their signature destinations include: Merida, Mexico Quepos, Costa Rica Trujillo, Peru Medellin, Colombia Madrid, Spain San Juan, Puerto Rico And they're in the process of expanding to Puerto Rico and Chile! Travel as a Creative and Transformational Experience One of the themes we explored in this episode is how travel—and learning a new language—can be a deeply creative process. It activates different parts of the brain, challenges perfectionism, and pushes us out of our comfort zones in the best possible way. For Amanda, the creativity comes in designing seamless, enriching itineraries that allow travelers to fully experience a new culture.

In today's episode, Colleen unpacks the hidden ways we keep ourselves stuck—whether it's staying in a comfort zone that no longer serves us, running on autopilot, or avoiding the call to expand into something greater. She explores the four zones we operate from (incompetence, competence, excellence, and genius) and how staying in the wrong one can quietly drain your energy and fulfillment. Plus, she shares the one simple question you can ask yourself daily to shift into a life that feels more open, creative, and aligned. Key Takeaways: The Four Zones That Keep You Stuck Zone of Incompetence – The things you struggle with and really shouldn't be doing. Spending time here out of fear or scarcity (like trying to fix your own tech issues instead of outsourcing) wastes time and energy. Zone of Competence – You can do these tasks, but so can others. Overloading yourself here leads to burnout because you're not fully using your gifts. Zone of Excellence – The place where you thrive and others rely on you, but it keeps you comfortable and prevents you from stepping into the next level of growth. Zone of Genius – Where you feel expansive, creative, and most aligned. This is where fulfillment lives—but getting there requires releasing old patterns and allowing yourself to grow. The Emotional Test: Contraction vs. Expansion Every action, habit, or decision either expands your heart (makes you feel alive, curious, and in flow) or contracts it (makes you feel stuck, drained, or small). Noticing this difference in real-time helps you shift away from habits that keep you playing small—like overworking, people-pleasing, or numbing with alcohol. When the feeling of over-drinking meets redundancy  So many high-achievers stay stuck in the zone of competence or excellence, which leads to boredom and frustration. When we feel unfulfilled, we reach for something to take the edge off—like drinking. Of course.  The "probably" real solution?? STOP IGNORING THE PART OF YOU THAT WANTS MORE FOR YOURSELF. Actionable Steps: Check In: When you feel the overwhelming pressure from the opposite side of the mirror, ask yourself: Am I in a state of expansion or contraction? Expansion = openness, curiosity, creativity.  Contraction = stress, avoidance, overthinking, numbing. Drop It Like It's Hot: If something feels like contraction (overthinking, unnecessary busyness, perfectionism), drop it as fast as possible. Give yourself permission to delegate, simplify, or step away from things that drain you. Prioritize What Actually Moves You Forward: Identify what actions truly create change in your life. Stop wasting energy in areas that don't serve your highest potential. Make Space for Your Zone of Genius: Spend more time doing what makes you feel the most engaged and fulfilled. Trust that stepping into this space will naturally lessen your urge to numb, overwork, or self-sabotage. Homework: Start a daily practice of asking yourself:              ~Does this expand me or contract me? Make a list of things you need to let go of so you can step into more freedom, creativity, and alignment. ~Then, discard by a method of your choice.

Welcome back to Goals with Soul!

But what if that's actually holding you back? The more experienced and premium a client is, the more they want to work with a specialist.

Let's Make Sense of the Big Leap by Gay Hendricks. Come read a book a week with me. This is a new format by Dr. JC Doornick "The Dragon" where we take one book a week from the vault, and give you a sub 30 minute synopisis witb its primary lessons and major takeaways.  In The Big Leap by Gay Hendricks, its basic premise uncovers how individuals can navigate and break through their internal barriers to achieve greater levels of success, love, and fulfillment. He introduces concepts of the “Upper Limit Problem”, which is a self-imposed limit that holds people back from living from their "Zone of Genius" or state of maximum creativity and fulfillment. The key distinction there is the reference to the self imposed nature of the upper limit problem. Hendricks argues that by identifying and overcoming these limits, anyone can make the "big leap" to lasting happiness and success. So there it is, its title “The Big Leap” refers to that breakthrough and shift from ordinary to extraordinary. On a personal note, i like his methodology and strategy as it lends well to that of my own IRS (Interface Response System) which is a four step process that begins with identifying our self imposed limitations by way of how our brain has been persuaded and programmed by our MFTPSE (Mother, Father, Teacher, Preacher, Society and Evolution) - I reference the Big Leap in my upcoming book “Makes Sense” in the same way i reference the science of the Flow State and created the IRS after identifying a few missing pieces in these models that would still get people hung up.    Important: I encourage you all to read these books or listen to them on Audible. My hope is that these short form synopsis's will awaken you to some great books to put on your list.   Contact Gay Hendrick: https://wwwwww.hendricks.com The Big Leap by Gay Hendricks: https://amzn.to/3PDvc7r   Welcome to the Makes Sense with Dr. JC Doornick Podcast: This podcast covers topics that expand human consciousness and performance.

In this week's mini-episode we explain the so-called "zone of genius:" a concept that encourages us to spend our time in the areas where we're most passionate and talented.  This has implications for Jiu-Jitsu strategy: We should build a gameplan that takes the fight to places where we are the most exceptional.  In terms of our skill development, this means we're best off doubling down on our strengths.  Instead of trying to "get good at everything" (which is impossible), we should "get good enough" to avoid losing in our areas of weaknesses, but be exceptional within our areas of strength.  As the old saying goes, we want to avoid being a jack of all trades but a master of none.Before you listen to this episode, check out:Mini Ep. 33: Layers of Strategyhttps://podcast.bjjmentalmodels.com/243161/episodes/16303959-mini-ep-33-layers-of-strategyMini Ep. 32: Funnelinghttps://podcast.bjjmentalmodels.com/243161/episodes/16266002-mini-ep-32-funnelingMini Ep. 31: Asymmetric Warfarehttps://podcast.bjjmentalmodels.com/243161/episodes/16225783-mini-ep-31-asymmetric-warfareGet our Intro to Mechanics audio course, normally $79, FREE:https://bjjmentalmodels.com/freeintroDon't forget to check out BJJ Mental Models Premium!If you love the podcast, you'll definitely love our premium membership offerings.

Hands up if you feel truly valued and respected at work.  In this episode, we dig deep into what truly makes employees feel valued and how leaders can create workplaces that people never want to leave. Spoiler: It's not just about pay, pizza parties, or avoiding toxic behaviour. We're aiming much higher!  Why You Should Listen Workplaces that crack the code of real team respect and value don't just retain their talent — they thrive. Whether you're a team leader or an employed vet, this episode is packed with actionable insights on creating meaningful change, improving communication, and unlocking your unique “zone of genius.” What Team Leaders Will Learn • How to spot and fix the subtle cues that make employees feel unheard and replaceable.  •.The counter-intuitive financial upside of investing in team development. “I think that organisations are sometimes coming in backwards, where it's like: ‘Let's just focus on the numbers and the metrics.' If you develop amazing talent and build a strong team, you will make so much money. It is not the other way around.” •.Practical tips to tackle team disengagement and avoid the high cost of turnover. • Strategies for better communication and feedback without burning out as a leader. “Because our brains are pre-programmed to attune to the negative, it's going to be a negative story. So when people don't understand what's happening, they're going to jump to the worst-case scenario, spread rumours, and act accordingly.” What Employed Vets Will Learn • How to advocate for yourself without feeling ‘pushy' or ‘needy'. • Why you might be feeling stuck in your role, and what to do about it.  • How to discover and step into your ‘zone of genius.' “If I can maximise my time and attention there, I will be of most use to my company, my team, myself, my patients — everybody.” Our guests are: • Dr. Natalie Fayman: A veterinarian with 30+ years of clinical experience turned certified Positive Intelligence coach, and champion for less workplace dread and more veterinary dream teams • Crystal Stokes: A former ER vet tech turned licensed psychotherapist and leadership coach. As the founder of Full Circle Lab, she's on a mission to bridge the gap between veterinary leadership and teams. Say not to settling for a ‘meh' workplace by hitting play on this episode  in to learn how to create (or find!) a role where you're truly respected, valued, and thriving.

Episode 137: Joy, Rest, and Showing Up in Your Zone of Genius Welcome back to The Innovative Therapist Podcast! This episode marks a small milestone for the show—I've officially upgraded my mic setup! After 137 episodes of recording with a free noise-canceling headset (and occasionally in my car on my phone), I finally invested in a proper mic and pop filter. Let's just say my tech journey involved a bit of user error, but here we are, and I hope the sound quality is noticeably better for you! But that's not the heart of today's episode. Instead, we're diving into a topic that's been front and center in my mind lately: the delicate balance between joy, rest, and purpose in the work we do as therapists and healers. What You'll Hear in This Episode: A Business and Life Update: I'll share a transparent look at where I am professionally and personally as 2024 comes to a close. Reflecting on the past year helps me process lessons learned and set intentions for the future. The Challenge of Balancing Rest and Passion: When you truly love your work, carving out time for rest can feel tricky (or even counterintuitive). I'll talk about my ongoing journey with this balance and what's worked (and hasn't). The Zone of Genius Concept in Action: I'll discuss how I'm applying the idea of working in your Zone of Genius—not just professionally, but in everyday life—and what it's teaching me about alignment and joy. Money and Meaningful Work: Money is a theme that keeps popping up in my reflections and conversations. While I'm not diving deeply into it in this episode, I'm previewing plans for upcoming episodes in 2025 that will explore the relationship between money, worth, and sustainable joy in our work. A Look Ahead: I'll share my plans for taking a rest period as we pause the podcast over the holidays, what rest looks like for me right now, and some ideas for upcoming episodes when we return. Living a Big Life: You'll hear a bit about this Marvelous Mrs. Maisel clip and what I love so much about it. And what a big life looks like to me. Why This Episode Matters This episode is a chance for us to take a pause together, reflect on the intersection of healing work, creativity, and rest, and celebrate the progress we've made. If you've ever felt torn between your love for your work and your need for downtime—or wondered how to tap more deeply into your gifts—this one's for you. Resources Mentioned: Free PDF with ideas for Creative Ways to Make Money as a Therapist Tune In Grab a cup of coffee (or your beverage of choice) and join me for this honest, reflective, and slightly vulnerable episode. Let's explore how we can continue to show up in the work we were called to do—joyfully, meaningfully, and with plenty of room for rest. Listen to the episode now, and let me know your thoughts! What does rest look like for you at this stage in your journey? How are you leaning into your Zone of Genius? Drop me a message or share your reflections—I'd love to hear from you.
