What makes some people supercommunicators? How can you become one too? This is the central lesson in Charles Duhigg’s bestseller Supercommunicators: How to Unlock the Secret of Communication. Charles and Chris dissect what makes messy conversations so great, how to ask deep questions, and whether women and men communicate differently. They also discuss the different rules for different technologies — from telephones to Facebook to Signal — and how cautious politeness may be the best method to communicate effectively online.

Have you ever found yourself staring at a gratitude journal, knowing you have so much to be thankful for, but just not feeling it? This week, I'm sharing a candid look into why gratitude can feel so out of reach when we're tired, stressed, or running on empty, even as the world tells us it's the season to count our blessings.

If you're ready for a fresh perspective on thankfulness that actually fits your busy, brilliant life, this episode is for you. Let's give ourselves permission to experience gratitude as it was meant to be…joyful, effortless, and truly rewarding. Show Highlights: What is the gratitude gap?

Fresh from an inspiring BOLD retreat in Asheville, NC, today I'll share the real reason high-achieving women like us keep slipping back into burnout, even after we swear we've got it handled.

You'll hear my top three strategies for breaking free from the burnout cycle and creating a life with energy, joy, and true freedom. This episode is your invitation to a new chapter, to make room for brilliance—and finally normalize rest, reclaim your rhythm, and enjoy what you're working so hard to build!

If you feel like your calendar is running your life, this episode is for you. Today, I'm shining a light on a struggle so many ambitious women know all too well…the trap of overcommitment. Why do we automatically say yes before we've even thought things through? How do we stop equating being needed with being valuable? I'm exploring how our standards of what's reasonable might be setting us up for exhaustion, and the profound difference intentionally creating white space in our schedules can make before we desperately need it. I'll share personal stories and real-world strategies to help you slow down the reflexive yes and redefine what's actually reasonable for the seasons of life. If you're ready for more breathing room and less burnout, this episode is your perfect starting point. Show Highlights: The reality of overcommitment. [00:50] Awareness of the automatic "Yes" Reflex.

If you find yourself stuck in a pattern of perfectionism, second-guessing your work, or feeling unsatisfied no matter what you accomplish, you're definitely not alone, and this episode is for you.

I'll also reveal the art (and the necessity) of bouncing back from setbacks, how instead of defining us, they can shape us, helping us grow stronger, wiser, and more resilient. I'm going to talk about the two different types of setbacks—permanent losses and temporary obstacles—and help you understand which ones require letting go and which call for persistence. I'm going to walk you through my "Bounce-Back Blueprint," a straightforward, three-step process that can help you recover from disappointments, extract meaningful lessons, reexamine your goals, and move forward with fresh energy and clarity. If you've ever gotten thrown off course, whether in your career, relationships, or personal pursuits, this episode will offer practical advice and encouragement to help you regain your momentum and step boldly into your next chapter.

Today, I'm taking a close look at the invisible pressures so many ambitious women, including myself, face while trying to have it all. If you've ever felt like you're constantly running… juggling work demands, family obligations, and the endless "extras" that keep life moving, this episode is for you. I'm calling out the unrealistic expectations we're accepting including the invisible labor trap, and explaining why it can feel like we're playing in a rigged game. I'll help you recognize the hidden work you do, explore why it often goes unnoticed, and, most importantly, show you how to redefine what's actually reasonable for your life. Join me for actionable insights, some deeply needed reality checks, and a powerful permission slip to stop overcompensating for a system that isn't serving you. Show Highlights: Spot the self-perpetuating trap of invisible labor. [03:20] Beware of non-promotable work volunteerism. [05:23] Consider the hidden costs of the invisible labor trap. [07:48] Are you underreporting your unseen contributions? [09:19] The problem of managing perception, not reality. [11:14] The power of reframing and making work visible. [14:06] Reclaim your agency in a rigged game to redefine success. [15:07] Recognize what's not a "you" problem. [19:14] Action steps to unlock agency without guilt. [20:28] Reach out for support, plus, share and spread the balance.
