Ever found yourself snapping at loved ones, withdrawing from activities you once enjoyed, or feeling your tolerance for nonsense hitting rock bottom? These might be signs you're experiencing burnout – that insidious state where joy vanishes and everything feels like a struggle.

In this candid conversation, we explore the complex reality of burnout and how it manifests differently across our lives. While complaining about workplace burnout is socially acceptable, we rarely acknowledge feeling burned out as mothers, friends, or partners. This double standard makes addressing personal burnout even more challenging, often leaving us feeling inadequate rather than recognizing we're simply human with finite energy.

The heart of our discussion revolves around recognition and recovery. We share personal stories of hitting walls in our careers and relationships, including how our very podcast schedule once pushed us to the brink. What emerges is a powerful truth: sometimes burnout is the symptom of something bigger that requires change, whether that's leaving a job that no longer aligns with your values or reconsidering commitments that drain rather than fulfill you.

Most valuable are the practical strategies we've each developed to combat burnout before it takes hold. From creating organized systems to prioritize tasks (our hosts swear by their "quadrant tools"), to physically reorganizing spaces to regain control, to simply learning the transformative power of asking for help – these approaches offer real paths forward. Listen in and discover how to recognize your own "bullshit meter" and use it as an early warning system to protect your well-being and rise above circumstances that threaten to overwhelm you.

The relationship we have with ourselves is the foundation from which all others rise. In this thought-provoking conversation with Jonathan Boncek, we explore how self-love, authentic vulnerability, and emotional awareness are not just healing tools—but the very ground from which we grow and rise into healthier, more connected relationships.

Jonathan shares his powerful personal evolution from photographer to practitioner of Rapid Transformational Therapy—a modality that blends hypnotherapy, CBT, and neuro-linguistic programming. He explains with clarity and compassion how the way we speak to ourselves shapes the lives we lead. “Speak to yourself like you're speaking to your five-year-old self,” he encourages, “with encouragement, support, and the most unconditional love you can.”

Together, we rise into a deeper conversation on male vulnerability—why it’s been resisted, how it shows up in the body, and what it means to reclaim emotional expression as a form of strength. With his metaphor of becoming “a warrior in a garden rather than a gardener in a war,” Jonathan invites us to rise out of survival mode and into grounded, compassionate presence.

We also explore rising in romantic and platonic relationships—releasing the myth that another person completes us, and instead honoring relationships as sacred spaces where two whole people rise alongside one another, witnessing and supporting each other’s growth. Jonathan offers practical tools for recognizing emotional cycles, setting boundaries, and knowing when to speak and when to simply hold space.

Perhaps most transformative is Jonathan’s invitation to look in the mirror, meet your own eyes, and say “I love you” until you feel it. This rising into self-love is where it all begins. As he reminds us, “The way you speak to yourself will become the way the world speaks to you.”

Ready to rise in your relationship with yourself—and others? Listen now and rediscover why your softest truths may be your greatest strength.

What does genuine self-care look like in an age of commercialized wellness and non-stop demands? Our conversation with rewilding retreat alumna Ave reveals it's far more than bubble baths and face masks—it's about creating sustainable rituals that honor your body's wisdom and protect your precious energy.

We dive deep into morning routines that set our days on the right track. From Brooke's transformative 15-minute yoga practice to Ave's cold water plunges and Kundalini stretches, these intentional start-ups don't need to be lengthy to be effective. The key isn't complexity but consistency—finding what grounds you and making it accessible enough to practice daily. As Ave shares, "Part of my morning routine and part of self-care is to be in a place where it's easy to feel my body's wisdom."

The conversation takes a fascinating turn as we explore how protecting our attention has become essential self-care. Digital boundaries, saying no to what doesn't deeply resonate, and Ave's refreshingly direct "no assholes" policy all reflect a deeper truth: self-care often looks like permission to honor your authentic needs. One powerful framework that emerged is "if it's not a hell yes, it's a hell no"—a simple but revolutionary approach to decision-making that honors your intuition.

We also unpack how nourishment affects our well-being, with practical insights on reducing sugar dependency, embracing plant-based options, and the therapeutic joy of gardening. From rainbow chard to hibiscus mocktails, participants share creative alternatives that make healthy choices feel like abundance rather than restriction. As Ave beautifully articulates, gardening isn't just about food—it's therapy that recalibrates your nervous system while connecting you to ancient human practices.

What's your non-negotiable self-care practice? Whether it's Tracy's dedicated hairstylist trips, Eryn's essential decompression time after work, or Brooke's sacred early mornings, we all need rituals that sustain us. Listen in and be inspired to craft your own sustainable self-care practice—one that truly rises to meet your authentic needs.

The journey between merely surviving and authentically thriving often comes down to one critical element: intention. What separates showing up at work from excelling at your career? What transforms routine goal-setting into genuine personal growth? 

In this thought-provoking episode, we dive deep into the relationship between intentions and goals, uncovering how they work together yet serve distinct purposes in our growth journey. Intentions represent our why—the feelings, beliefs, and visions that precede action—while goals provide the structured pathway to achievement. Without aligned intentions, even well-crafted goals can feel hollow or imposed, lacking the emotional investment needed for sustained motivation.

We explore frameworks like SMART goals and James Clear's philosophy from "Atomic Habits" that "we do not rise to the level of our goals; we fall to the level of our systems." This perspective shifts focus from outcomes to processes, suggesting that small 1% daily improvements in our systems can lead to remarkable progress without overwhelming changes.

The conversation takes fascinating turns through manifestation practices—how visualizing success and maintaining positive self-talk can program our brains to recognize opportunities—and the complex dynamics of accountability partnerships. We share personal experiences with step-counting challenges that illustrate both the motivational power and potential pitfalls of external accountability.

Perhaps most inspiring is our discussion of Big Hairy Audacious Goals (BHAGs)—those moonshot aspirations that seem almost impossible yet inspire collective action and innovation. Like JFK's declaration about going to the moon, these ambitious visions can unlock creativity and determination we didn't know we possessed.

Ready to transform your approach to goal-setting? Listen now, and discover how to align your intentions with your actions to truly rise with purpose.

The quest for purpose often becomes a pressure-filled search for a singular calling or destination, but what if we've been approaching it all wrong? In this vulnerable and thought-provoking conversation, we dismantle the myth that finding your purpose happens in one revelatory moment or that pursuing your passion means you'll "never work a day in your life." 

Through personal stories and honest reflections, we explore how purpose frequently reveals itself in retrospect, sometimes emerging from our most challenging moments and redirecting our life's trajectory in unexpected ways. Listen as we share our journeys of finding alignment between mind, heart, and intuition—and the courage required to recognize when we've drifted from our authentic path.

The conversation takes a fascinating turn when we examine how career choices often happen through a combination of intention, circumstance, and sometimes even childhood inclinations that hint at our natural talents. We reflect on the concept of "calling" and whether we're all meant to experience that profound sense of direction that some describe.

Perhaps most powerfully, we celebrate how community becomes fundamental to purpose discovery and fulfillment. Our own women's circle demonstrates how intentional gathering creates spaces where authenticity thrives, accountability flourishes, and ideas transform into meaningful action rather than remaining theoretical discussions.

Ready to shift your perspective on purpose? Join us for this insightful exploration of how staying curious, connecting with your values, and building supportive community might be the real secret to living a purpose-driven life. Subscribe now and discover why purpose is more about the journey of alignment than any final destination.

What if self-doubt isn't something to overcome, but rather a clue guiding us toward deeper self-understanding? In this transformative conversation, we're joined by leadership expert and Harley rider Pamela Say, who shares her journey of unlearning limiting beliefs and discovering authentic contentment.

Pamela introduces a powerful perspective: from birth, we absorb messages from others that shape our beliefs about ourselves and our capabilities. By adulthood, these inherited narratives feel like truth. The key to freedom? Embarking on what she calls "the greatest journey of my whole life" – the rigorous process of unlearning toxic messaging to discover who we truly are beneath it all.

The discussion takes unexpected turns as we explore how riding a 700-pound Harley motorcycle became Pamela's metaphor for freedom and presence. Once terrified of public speaking to the point of physical distress, she shares the technique she uses to transform this fear into confidence. Our hosts vulnerably share their own experiences with self-doubt, from career transitions to medical procedures and parenting insecurities.

We examine whether popular terms like "imposter syndrome" help us grow or keep us stuck, and dive into practical strategies for moving through fear: preparation, visualization, reframing anxiety as excitement, and perhaps most importantly, practicing radical self-compassion.

Whether you're facing a significant challenge or simply tired of the voice in your head questioning your worth, this episode offers both comfort and actionable insights. Join us to discover how connecting with others and questioning inherited beliefs can lead to the most authentic version of yourself – and why none of us would ever want to be 20 again!

Inner strength is the foundation upon which we can build our lives, navigate our struggles, and rise above adversity. In this episode, we delve into the profound concept of cultivating inner strength, sharing personal stories that resonate with resilience, vulnerability, and empowerment. Through compelling narratives, we explore what it means to rise from within and how this journey shapes us. 

We start by discussing the significance of self-validation in finding our strength, as well as the detrimental effects of seeking external approval. One host opens up about a traumatic moment in her life, illustrating how recognizing our own power can lead to transformative healing and self-empowerment. Other stories highlight everyday experiences, bringing humor and relatability to the exploration of living alone and confronting life's little challenges that demand inner strength. 

Rooted in science and psychology, we address how the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems influence our ability to manage stress. Practical strategies such as meditation and deep breathing are offered to assist in stabilizing our internal responses to external pressures. Through discussing mindfulness and community support, we encourage listeners to embrace their journeys and trust the strength that resides within them.

Today, we're pulling back the curtain on dining debacles and the hilarity of restaurant rules that'll have you wondering if you're eating out or signing your life away.

Kindness isn't just a word; it's a heartfelt action that can change the course of someone's day—or even life.

Has the curiosity of Trinity wounds ever tugged at your thoughts?

Check out the new Coach's resource Noting Heals Like Sport here. 
"After more than three years of living through a global health emergency – which caused both an unimaginable amount of direct loss and laid bare the inequity of social structures that have systematically and intentionally traumatized and marginalized minority groups for centuries – young people are struggling. Struggling to carry the weight of the chaos, of the disruption, of the trauma.

In today’s climate, we’re asking more of coaches than ever before. Modern coaching has proven to all that the quality of the coach-athlete relationship is the primary predictor for an athlete’s performance. And without an expanded tool set, coaches can feel frustrated as they work to meet the diverse needs of their athletes.

Nothing Heals Like Sport – A New Playbook for Coaches gives coaches these tools.

These are the tools that help them center their athletes and understand what happens as athletes develop. These are the tools to support athletes through adversity- whether that adversity comes only on the court or is part of their athlete’s lived experience. These are the tools that help coaches, so coaches can then help athletes.

Our partnership with Dr. Bruce D. Perry M.D., Ph.D., and the Neurosequential Network has fueled the development of this playbook. These skills and strategies are an intentional merging of Dr. Perry’s core, groundbreaking concepts and the coaching expertise and connected community of the Center for Healing and Justice through Sport.

We believe these tools will help YOU so that you can then support your athletes in all the ways a modern athlete requires. We also know that when your athletes feel supported and take ownership of their team, you win more games (a lot more games). The spaces where athletes perform their best athletically are exactly those spaces where they feel safe, seen and encouraged to be their whole selves. They are the spaces of healing-centered, brain-based coaching. ~Center for Healing & Justice Through Sport"

Join us as we Spill the TEA about coping with loss. Learn how some of life's most stressful events have deepened the meaning of our journey and how we have healed within the TEA community.

In this episode, we explore and reference the works of Elizabeth Kubler-Ross and David Kessler, who define the five stages of grief as denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance.  In later works,  Kessler has added meaning to the established stages.

Tea is spilled about TRUST after sharing this excerpt from Women Gathering and Growing with TEA, Chapter 3. “Trust is the glue cementing teams together. Unfortunately, women have been conditioned to use trust as a weapon. As we develop our identities, we learn to form friendships. And in female friendships, we increase intimacy by sharing stories and allowing each other to be vulnerable. Sometimes we circumvent this requirement by sharing others’ stories—ones that are not ours to share. We learn early on how to barter secrets, use intel to hide our insecurities, and direct attention away from ourselves and onto someone else. We want so desperately to fit in with peers that we destroy trust in budding relationships. This type of behavior is detrimental to a group of women.”
