If you’ve ever felt like you’re constantly pushing, striving, and checking off the next thing on your to-do list—only to still feel exhausted and unfulfilled—this episode is for you.

This week, I’m joined by Roslyn McLarty, an executive coach and founder of Within, who helps high-achievers create sustainable success without sacrificing their wellbeing. After co-founding and scaling the sports media brand The GIST, Roslyn found herself deep in burnout, battling self-doubt, overwhelm, and exhaustion. Now, she helps others redefine their relationship with work, rest, and personal fulfillment.

In this episode, we’re talking about:

• The real signs of burnout – and why most people don’t recognize them until it’s too late.
• Why so many high-achievers feel like they’re never doing enough (and how to challenge that belief).
• How to break free from hustle culture and trust that rest is productive.
• Practical mindset shifts and nervous system tools to help prevent burnout.
• How perfectionism and people-pleasing contribute to burnout—and what to do about it.
• Small, intentional habits that create more ease in your daily life.
• Roslyn’s journey from burned-out founder to building a business rooted in alignment and well-being.

This episode will give you tangible insights to redefine success in a way that prioritizes your energy, creativity, and well-being.
