Listen Later

World-renowned performance coach and best-selling author Chris Janssen joins us to uncover the often hidden struggles of high-achievers and perfectionists. Sharing her journey of sobriety during the challenging holiday season, Chris opens up about the themes of shame, grace, and rewriting personal narratives. Our conversation offers tools and strategies for managing performance pressure and avoiding self-sabotage, drawing from Chris’s wealth of experience training with Tony Robbins and working with athletes and entrepreneurs.

Mentorship takes center stage as we explore the dual role of being both a mentor and a mentee. We discuss the value of shared experiences and community support, especially in contexts like motherhood and sobriety. Challenging popular misconceptions about addiction, we highlight how it can affect anyone, shedding light on the deeper struggles that alcohol use can mask. Through our personal stories, you’ll find inspiration and guidance on navigating these complex issues, reinforcing the importance of community in recovery and personal growth.

Finally, we dive into the transformative power of grace and self-worth. By addressing the pervasive issue of shame, we reveal practical methods for reframing negative narratives and fostering a healthier self-image. Chris and I share insights from our personal journeys and professional experiences, encouraging listeners to engage in the necessary heart work for richer, more meaningful connections and relationships. Whether you're seeking sobriety or personal growth, this episode offers a beacon of hope and a roadmap to a more joyful life.
