What happens when being helpful turns into carrying what is not yours?

In this episode of SoundBits, Kim Groshek is joined by Alyssa Utecht for a conversation about boundaries, power, nervous system safety, and the decisions we keep reopening because discomfort feels too hard to hold.

Kim and Alyssa unpack:

Why boundaries are not just walls, but decision lines

Energy is not something you chase. It’s something you build.

In this conversation with Jennifer Hough, we explore the real drivers behind energy—and why so many leaders feel depleted despite doing “all the right things.”

Jennifer shares her experience navigating severe fatigue after toxic exposure, and how that led her to rethink health, performance, and the way we generate energy at a cellular level.

Here’s what we cover:

Jennifer also introduces a powerful leadership shift:

Energy expands when you stop operating alone.

The move from “lone wolf” to connected, curious, and collaborative leadership isn’t just philosophical—it’s practical. It changes how you receive support, make decisions, and sustain momentum.

This episode is a reminder:

You don’t need more discipline.

Your energy is a system. When you support the system, energy follows.

In this episode of SoundBits, Kim Groshek welcomes Mitzi back for a conversation about what happens when a decision finally turns into action.

Mitzi shares how reading Kim’s work on decision-making helped her recognize that the stress she was carrying was not just from being busy. It was from decisions she had made but never acted on.

For years, Mitzi wanted to finish her book. Once she stopped waiting for the perfect writing setup and began using small pockets of time—doctor’s appointments, waiting rooms, and quiet moments on her phone—she completed 14 chapters in just two months.

This episode explores:

Mitzi also shares how this shift has expanded her vision—from finishing one book to believing in her long-term goal of publishing 200 books.

This is a conversation about ownership, accountability, and what becomes possible when you stop delaying the decision and start moving forward.

One question to take with you:

In this episode, Kim sits down with Neil Taylor for a thoughtful conversation about family, time, boundaries, creativity, and the power of preserving personal stories.

They talk about what it means to be fully present in the moments that matter, especially when family calls us away from work and back into what is most important. Kim shares reflections on time boxing, sacred boundaries, and how being fully present is a decision. Neil brings in ideas from the book Four Thousand Weeks, exploring how life feels different when we realize time is finite and that efficiency alone is not the goal.

The conversation also moves into art, creative process, grief, memory, and legacy. Neil shares how losing his father deepened his desire to help people capture their stories before they are lost. Kim reflects on being with her mother during her final days and the beauty of hearing and holding the stories that make a life.

This episode is a reminder that behind productivity, behind business, and behind achievement, there is something deeper: connection, meaning, and the stories that bind us together.

In this episode, Kim and Neil discuss:
