Coffee with Carly: Health, Rebuilt for Women

It's time to stop doing it all. From remembering every little thing to cleaning up after everyone, the invisible load at home is real… and it's draining your energy, your creativity, and your joy.

In part two of the Feminine Freedom series, Carly shares a personal story that might sound way too familiar — a sunny Saturday turned into a cleaning fight with her fiancé. (Yep, we’ve all been there.) But instead of staying stuck in resentment, she made a bold move: she outsourced it.

This episode is a call to stop micromanaging your home life and start asking a new question: Who can help me? Not how can I do more. It's a shift that successful women make — and one that could give you your time, energy, and spark back.

Carly unpacks the conditioning that keeps women stuck in the domestic default, breaks down the emotional cost of doing it all, and offers real, doable mindset shifts that’ll help you reclaim your weekends (and your sanity).

Key Takeaways:

• You’re not lazy — you’re over-functioning: And it’s time to stop.
• “Who Not How” is your new mantra: Ask for help, outsource, delegate.
• Control is costing you: Let go of perfection and create more magic.
• Your time is valuable: Reclaim it. Protect it. Spend it on what actually matters.
• Let your home support you. Not the other way around.

Welcome to part 1 of the Feminine Freedom - a new mini-series inside Coffee with Carly! Carly Schade invites you to rethink everything you’ve been taught about health, hustle, and productivity. Most modern systems are built around a 24-hour hormone cycle—a rhythm that works for men, but leaves women feeling exhausted, inconsistent, and disconnected from their bodies.

Carly shares why syncing your life to your 28-day hormone cycle isn’t “woo”—it’s science. She breaks down the four phases (menstrual, follicular, ovulatory, and luteal) and how each one holds a different superpower.

You’ll learn how to align your tasks, rest, workouts, and energy with your body's natural rhythm—and finally feel like you're working with yourself instead of constantly pushing against.

This episode is part education, part empowerment, and 100% permission to stop treating yourself like a machine and start honoring your biology.

Key Takeaways:

• Cycle 101: A breakdown of the four hormone phases and what each one means for your energy, mood, and motivation
• Rewrite the Rulebook: How our world was built for men—and how women can finally stop playing by those rules
• New Definition of Consistency: Why showing up the same every day isn’t realistic—and what sustainable success actually looks like
• Real-Life Shifts: Three simple ways to begin syncing your calendar, self-care, and expectations to your body
• Cyclical Living = Feminine Freedom: The more you tune into your body, the more ease, clarity, and momentum you’ll find

You're not stuck - you were just given the wrong rules. 

Welcome to the kickoff of my 4-part podcast series Feminine Freedom, where I share the raw, real story behind my wake-up call—from doing everything “right” (and burning out in the process) to redefining success on my own terms.

We’re in a moment where more women are starting businesses, climbing the ladder, and stepping into leadership—but at what cost? Society still expects us to “do it all,” and it’s driving us straight into exhaustion.

This episode explores what happens when we stop grinding and start flowing. I’ll walk you through how I went from achievement-addicted and chronically stressed to reclaiming my health, stepping out of default domestic roles, reprogramming my beliefs around money, and finally… finding a deeper sense of freedom and joy.

Whether you're a high-achiever, a recovering perfectionist, or a woman craving a different way—this series is for you.

We’ll explore:

• Why burnout hits women harder (and why it’s not your fault)
• How I unknowingly brought my hustle home
• The moment I made a 5-figure investment in myself with no job (and why it changed everything)
• Why the old rules of success don’t work—and what to do instead

This is more than a podcast. It’s a permission slip. A new manual for success, designed by women—for women.

Upcoming episodes will dive into:
 → Health (your body isn’t a machine)
 → Home (ditch the domestic default)
 → Wealth (bold self-investment & feminine money)
 → Happiness (joy as a metric of success)

Is healing a lifelong journey—or are we just stuck in the loop?

In this episode of Coffee with Carly, Carly Schade sits down with Nicholas Clay, founder of Being One World and a pro-conscious meditation health coach. Together, they explore the science and spirituality of healing, from subconscious reprogramming to emotional triggers, nervous system patterns, and true growth beyond the “healing phase.”

Expect real talk on:

• What “rewiring the subconscious” actually means
• The difference between mindfulness and meditation (with real-life practices)
• Why triggers are green lights, not red flags
• Healing from stored emotions and breaking free from identity loops
• How breathwork, intuition, and self-awareness help re-center the mind

Whether you're new to personal development or deep into your own transformation, this episode will leave you with practical tools and powerful reframes to move from self-sabotage to self-mastery.

 In this episode, I take you behind the scenes of my wedding dress shopping experience and uncover a powerful life lesson about self-sabotage, worthiness, and the Upper Limit Problem (a concept from The Big Leap by Gay Hendricks).

We all have an internal thermostat for success, love, and happiness—and when we exceed it, we subconsciously pull ourselves back down. Whether it’s procrastinating on a big opportunity, downplaying our wins, or avoiding the spotlight (like I almost did with my wedding veil!), these patterns keep us stuck in the familiar, even when we crave more.

Tune in to learn:
 ✅ How to recognize your own upper limit blocks
 ✅ The 4 hidden fears that might be holding you back
 ✅ Practical steps to expand your capacity for joy, success, and abundance

If you’re ready to stop shrinking, embrace more, and create the life you actually want, this episode is for you.

Ever feel like life is just… way harder than it needs to be? What if I told you that you might be the one making it that way? Yep. In this episode of Coffee with Carly, we’re talking about the sneaky ways we create our own suffering—burnout, people-pleasing, overworking, staying stuck in cycles that don’t even make us happy (but hey, at least we’re consistent, right?).

It all clicked for me during a late-night walk with friends… and an Australian Shepherd who was pulling so hard on his leash that he was literally choking himself. And I couldn’t help but wonder—how often do we do the exact same thing?

• The uncomfortable truth about why we stay stuck in stress and struggle
• How to recognize when you are the reason life feels so damn hard
• The small but powerful shifts to loosen the leash and actually enjoy life again

If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed or like you’re constantly forcing things—this is your sign to drop the struggle and take a deep breath.
