  • 190: Chronic Illness With Nikita Williams

    1 in 5 people either has or knows someone who has chronic illness in the US. 


    This stat blew my mind. 


    Chronic illness hasn’t been something we talked about on the podcast before. But after hearing from numerous listeners who experience chronic illness, we knew we needed to get an expert on the show. 


    And Nikita Williams was ABOVE AND BEYOND the expert we were looking for. 


    In this episode of the Life Coach Baker podcast, Nikita Williams, Business Confidence Coach & Podcast Host for people with Chronic Illnesses, blows us away by discussing how to build a business and thrive in said business with a chronic illness. We discuss the shame around chronic illness, what helps maintain your chronic illness, and so much more.

  • 187: Sick Guilt

    There have been many areas of my life where perfectionism (thankfully) no longer exists…


    But when I’m sick, that all goes to hell. And I recently just got past having COVID, so this all is FRESH


    Why do we feel so guilty when we’re sick as perfectionists? Why do we feel like we still need to keep pushing? Like we’re the worst person in the world for letting people down/needing to reschedule things. 


    All this and more is what we’re exploring on this weeks episode of Nicole just had COVID and had ALL the feelings!

  • 185: High Achiever Burnout with Nathalie Pincham

    This one is for all the stressed-out high achievers out there.

    High achiever has become synonymous with hustle, push, do more, be more… all of which eventually lead to burnout.

    But high achievers avoid admitting they have burnout like it is the plague! So how do we identify as high achievers if we are burned out? What to do if we realize we are burned out and we don’t want to take time off to rest? How do we reignite that passion and drive that comes with being a high achiever?

    Thank GOODNESS we have Nathalie Pincham to answer these questions and more.

    Nathalie is a Success Coach and the host of the Your Success Tonic podcast. She helps high achievers align your business and life goals so you create a holistic approach to success, full of flow and fulfillment, not hustle and burnout. LOVE!
