In this final episode of the Burnout Breakthrough series, we wrap up six weeks of transformation by shifting from hard work to joyful living. After tackling boundaries, delegation, and saying no, this week focuses on the fun part—learning to live your dream life now. Goli challenges listeners to stop postponing happiness and start creating daily joy through simple exercises like crafting a “dream day” and building a “bliss list.” You’ll learn how to bring intention, fun, and presence back into your routine—because life isn’t something to endure until it gets better. It’s happening right now.

In this episode of Lessons from a Quitter, we dive into one of the most powerful mindset shifts for breaking free from burnout in week 5 of the Burnout Breakthrough series: letting go of “manuals” for how others should act. We explore how much energy we waste trying to control people’s behaviors—believing our happiness depends on them changing—and how freeing it can be to drop those expectations. You’ll learn how to stop people-pleasing, set healthy boundaries, and reclaim your emotional peace by focusing on what you can control: your own thoughts and actions. This episode is a must-listen for anyone ready to find calm and confidence in every relationship.

In this episode of Lessons from a Quitter, we dive into the often-overlooked emotional side of career change—grief. When we outgrow an identity, a job, or a dream, it’s not just a pivot; it’s a loss. I’m joined by grief coach Laverne McKinnon to unpack how letting go of who we thought we’d be can open the door to who we’re becoming. We explore why it’s essential to honor our grief rather than rush past it, how to rebuild self-trust, and how embracing the messy middle can lead to a more authentic, fulfilling next chapter in your life and career.

In this week’s episode of Lessons from a Quitter, I share Week 3 of my Burnout Breakthrough Accelerator. This session focuses on one of the biggest obstacles to rest and balance: guilt. We explore how guilt—often rooted in cultural, societal, or workplace expectations—keeps us trapped in burnout, pushing us to overwork, people-please, and ignore our own needs. I walk through how guilt feeds into shame, why it’s used as a tool of control, and how to separate cultural norms from your own values. You’ll learn practical strategies to redefine your beliefs and finally let go of unnecessary guilt.

In this week’s episode of Lessons from a Quitter, I continue sharing my Burnout Breakthrough Accelerator series. We dive into the second pillar of moving past burnout: uncovering the impossible standards we set for ourselves. From work expectations like never making mistakes or always going above and beyond, to personal standards of being the “perfect” partner, parent, or friend, we explore how these unrealistic bars keep us stuck in exhaustion and self-criticism. Through exercises and real-life examples—including a powerful story from a client—you’ll learn how to recognize these patterns and begin creating realistic standards that allow for success, joy, and sustainability.

In this week’s episode of Lessons from a Quitter, I’m kicking off a special six-week series called the Burnout Breakthrough Accelerator. After years of coaching professionals through overwhelm, I’ve distilled the key steps to help you move from constant exhaustion to more clarity, space, and joy. In Week 1, we start with an honest self-audit—writing down every “should” that weighs on us in work, home, health, and relationships. This eye-opening purge reveals just how much pressure we pile on ourselves and sets the stage for reclaiming time, energy, and control from burnout.

In this week’s episode of Lessons from a Quitter, I share a personal experiment I’ve started in my own business: taking Mondays and Fridays off to create a three-day workweek. While it sounds dreamy on the surface, the reality has been much messier—and that’s exactly why I wanted to bring it to you. We dive into how hustle culture and perfectionism make rest feel uncomfortable, why our brains resist slowing down, and how important it is to give ourselves permission to experiment. This conversation is about challenging old rules, embracing imperfection, and creating more space for what you truly want.

In this episode of Lessons from a Quitter, we dive into the root causes of burnout and why so many of us struggle to rest. Drawing from years of coaching, I break down how capitalism, schooling, religion, and cultural expectations tie our self-worth to constant productivity. We explore why slowing down feels uncomfortable, why rest is often judged as laziness, and how these beliefs keep us stuck in cycles of exhaustion. This episode challenges you to rethink worthiness, confront the discomfort of rest, and begin building a life defined by joy and ease—not endless busyness.

In this week’s episode of Lessons from a Quitter, I sit down with Beatriz (Béa) Victoria Albina—NP, MPH, SEP, somatic life coach, and host of the Feminist Wellness Podcast. Béa shares her expertise on breaking free from codependency, perfectionism, and people-pleasing, especially for those of us who’ve been conditioned to prioritize others over ourselves. We dive into how reconnecting with your body, regulating your nervous system, and rewiring your thoughts can help you step out of burnout and reclaim your joy. Béa also gives us a sneak peek into her upcoming book, End Emotional Outsourcing. SOCIAL MEDIA LINKS

In this week’s episode of Lessons from a Quitter, I dive into one of the most powerful mindset shifts you can make: rewriting the story you tell about yourself. Too often, we cling to old narratives—“I’m lazy,” “I’m behind,” “I’ve failed”—that keep us stuck, exhausted, and convinced we’re not enough. But these stories are built on narrow evidence, ignoring the mountain of proof that shows our resilience, creativity, and success. I share my own journey of reframing a harmful story and the transformations I’ve witnessed in clients when they shift their self-concept. Nothing changes until your story does.
