In this episode of The Coaching Book Club Podcast, Christy and Ken explore Never Not Working by Melissa Clark — a thought-provoking book that distinguishes between healthy work engagement and workaholism. While both may look similar on the outside, the internal energy and motivation behind them make all the difference.

Through real talk and laughter, Christy and Ken reflect on their own habits, motivations, and calendars — and invite you to do the same. This episode will help you:

  • Understand the line between doing meaningful work and being compulsively driven.
  • Recognize how your energy source (love vs. fear) impacts your coaching presence.
  • Reimagine recovery — not as laziness, but as leadership.

Whether you’re soaking wet chasing down an idea or scheduling over yourself out of scarcity, this episode will offer grounding and guidance. Tune in for a compassionate look at what fuels us — and how to recover our best selves.
