THE RESILIENT WORKING MUM, Workplace Burnout, Employee Performance, Women in Leadership, Stress Management, Resilience, Productivity, Boundaries, Working Mothers

What if burnout isn't simply the result of having too much to do, but of the way we've been taught to define success?
In this episode, I sit down with former Wall Street executive, Master Certified Executive Coach, and author Kenyada Meadows to explore the hidden cost of high-performance culture. We talk about why so many capable people tie their worth to their work and how the pressure to constantly achieve can impact our relationships, parenting, and wellbeing.
Kenyada shares how becoming a father and navigating the demands of senior leadership transformed his understanding of strength, introducing a new model of leadership rooted in presence, balance and emotional integrity. Whether you're a working parent, a people leader, or simply trying to build a more sustainable life, this conversation will challenge the way you think about success and what it truly means to lead well.

If you've tried all the stress-management advice and still find yourself overwhelmed, reactive, overthinking or unable to switch off, this episode is for you.
In this episode, we explore how pressure shapes the way high-achieving women think, feel and behave over time, often creating patterns that begin to feel like personality traits.
You'll learn why stress is about more than workload, how emotional habits become deeply ingrained and why building resilience is different from simply managing stress.
If you're tired of coping and are ready to understand what's really driving your stress, this conversation will give you a fresh perspective on change, self-trust and lasting resilience.

Have you ever noticed how you can spend time with some people and leave you feeling energised while other people leave you completely drained?
In this episode, we explore why other people's energy affects you more than you realise and how your nervous system constantly responds to the emotional states of the people around you.
You'll learn why high-achieving women often absorb stress, tension and emotional pressure from colleagues, family members and children, how this contributes to overwhelm, reactivity and exhaustion and why resilience begins with the ability to regulate your own internal state.
Whether you're a working mum, leader or professional woman navigating competing demands, this episode will help you understand the powerful connection between nervous system regulation, emotional resilience, leadership and sustainable performance at work and at home.

Have you ever known exactly what you should do, yet still found yourself repeating the same patterns?
In this episode, we explore the real reason why smart, high-achieving women stay stuck, even when they have the knowledge, tools, and best intentions to change.

Whether you're struggling with boundaries, overthinking, people-pleasing, procrastination or burnout, this episode will help you understand why change feels so difficult and what it takes to move forward with greater confidence, clarity and resilience.

If you feel like you are always busy but never quite on top of things, this episode is for you. We explore why high-achieving women often become trapped in a cycle of over-responsibility, taking on more and more while feeling increasingly overwhelmed, exhausted and ineffective. You'll learn how over-functioning, mental load, identity-driven pressure and chronic stress drain your capacity, impact your focus, and reduce your performance at work and at home.
Whether you're a working mum, leader or professional woman navigating competing demands, this episode will help you understand why doing more isn't always the answer and how resilience creates the foundation for sustainable performance, better boundaries and greater effectiveness.

If you’re a high-achieving working woman who feels responsible for everything at work and at home, this episode will help you understand why. We explore how over-responsibility, mental load, emotional labour, and identity-based stress create hidden pressure that drains your energy, focus, and resilience over time.
You’ll learn why capable women often take on more than is theirs to carry, how this pattern impacts performance, burnout, and decision-making, and what resilient leadership looks like when you begin choosing what you carry instead of automatically carrying it all.

What if the pressure you feel as a working mother isn’t just about how much you have to do but about how much of yourself you’ve left behind?
In this episode, I sit down with performance coach, author, and founder of The Self Made Mom, Julia Sewell, to explore a powerful concept: noble self-abandonment.
This is the idea that many women slowly remove themselves from their own lives in the name of being a “good” mother, partner, and professional, often without even realising it.
We unpack how this pattern shows up, the impact it has on your family, your work, and your sense of identity, and what it looks like to begin the journey of self-making, rebuilding a life where you are no longer last on your own list.
This is an honest and deeply affirming conversation about worth, identity, and what it really means to take your place back in your own life.
If you’ve ever felt like you’ve lost yourself while trying to be everything for everyone else, this episode is for you!Find out more or get in touch with Julia here: @theselfmademomwww.theselfmademom.com

In this episode, we explore the hidden phase before burnout when high-achieving working women are still performing on the outside but feeling disengaged, exhausted, and unable to focus underneath. If you’ve been feeling less motivated, more depleted, or disconnected from your work or home life, this is not a sign of failure or laziness. It’s an early signal of burnout.
Learn why burnout begins long before it becomes visible, how chronic stress and internal pressure impact your nervous system and performance, and what it actually takes to stay engaged, energised, and effective without burning out.
