If you've ever told yourself you are not resilient, brave, disciplined, or determined enough to accomplish big things, listen up! This week Maria teams up with Jane Elliott, who is a coach helping people with big talents use them with less avoidance, stress and misery, to tell you that you are wrong about all of those things! We often end up discounting just how much resilience and grit we have, and we instead look at the evidence as "lack of discipline." But what if you showing up in the past, even when you didn't get the results you wanted, is actually a perfect example of your grit? And what if you haven't been able to get those results not because there is something wrong with you, but because no one has yet shown you how to do it?

Maria and Jane talk also talk about how to work on the things that you decided you want to work on, without having to yell at yourself about being "unmotivated" or "lazy," how to figure out if that big project you have been thinking about is what you actually want to do, how to distinguish between intrinsic enjoyment and external validation, and how to find your own authority!

If you live in a marginalized identity, chances are you have come across microagressions, triggers, or even plainly unsafe situations at work at least once in your career. And you may have been unsure how to respond to them, or felt stuck between feeling bad you didn't respond in a way you would have wanted to, feeling unsafe in exercising your options to respond, and feeling angry that you have to face these situations in the first place. We often don't acknowledge how much of a toll going through these experiences takes on our mental health and how much of a role these situations play in our burnout, stress and exhaustion at work.

This week, Maria talks to Cheyne Scott, who is a litigation partner from NJ and certified life coach for women lawyers who want to make partner without burnout, about all of these topics and about when and how to make a change (both internally and externally), so that you can prioritize your well-being without having to give up the passion and dedication you have to your work.

Have you ever thought about your relationship with money, what you think about your ability to earn money, whether you think of yourself as being good with money, and where you have learned all the narratives about money that you believe today? This week Maria talks to Money Coach Rachelle Siebke about all things related to money, why women are traditionally taught to believe that we are "bad" with money, and how all of that ties into the various systems of oppression we all live in. 

 A lot of us have a ton of mental and emotional baggage associated with money, and taking a closer look at the source of those money beleifs can be hugely informative and healing. Not to mention that improving our relationship with money helps make our work a lot more fun, because our emotional baggage and fears around money make a lot of our jobs super stressful. 

Rachelle Siebke works with women who want to be smart with their money. They want someone to show them how to manage their finances so that they can make confident decisions based on how they want their life to look and feel — not just a number in the bank. She shows them how to get more of what they want and while doing more of what they love.

This week's guest is Amelia Noel - a Master Certified Coach, Columbia MBA, podcast host & former Wall Street investment banker and Fortune 500 strategy consultant. Maria and Amelia chat about their common consulting-to-coaching journeys and about breaking free from the mental grind of your job. Because even demanding careers and schedules can be made more sustainable and manageable if we change our thoughts about them. For instance, when you get that 11pm urgent client email, you get the option of thinking about it as a fire drill that's going to make or break your career, or as something you have under control and can handle. 

Amelia also shares the five main on-the-job mindsets (Overachiever, Overthinker, People Pleaser, Perfectionist or Impostor) that she has observed based on coaching thousands of clients. To learn what your on-the-job mindset is, go to: https://orka8dfenx8.typeform.com/BFGmindsetquiz.

Amelia is a Master Certified Coach, Columbia MBA, podcast host & former Wall Street investment banker and Fortune 500 strategy consultant who helps overworked & overwhelmed professionals stop overworking in their careers & feel better at work. Through her 1:1 Breaking Free from the Grind™ coaching program, corporate workshops & speaking events, Amelia helps her clients not only create sustainable success within their careers – but lives they love outside of work. Amelia has coached 100s of clients working at companies like Google, Meta, Apple, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, Evercore, PIMCO, McKinsey, Bain and BCG, among others.

This week Maria talks to Amanda Malaney, a Certified Life Coach who is also an Environmental Consulting Project Manager, about making work more fun by discovering opportunities where you are. Often when we feel stuck or burned out at work, the natural inclination could be to think about leaving. And while there is nothing wrong with changing jobs or external circumstances, there could also be a lot of opportunities wehre you are that you may be missing when you think the grass is greener elsewhere. Not to mention that, without first addressing how you relate to your work, changing your job or external circumstances will never result in you feeling better, because your old patterns of perfectionism, people-pleasing, and overworking will just follow you into your next job.

Amanda Malaney is a Certified Life Coach. She has 17 years of experience working in the environmental consulting field, currently as a project manager. Amanda initially became interested in life coaching to help her manage work stress, but life coaching has improved her work life, her personal relationships, her relationship with herself, and her overall experience in the world. Amanda works with clients one-on-one to change their relationship to their work and other areas of their life where they are looking for a different experience.

This week Maria talks to Vanessa Hardy, who is a general life coach, archeologist, and writer, about creativity. Whether you don't identify as a creative person, but have always been intrigued by the concept of creativity, you know you are creative but don't think your work provides much of an outlet for that, or you absolutely embrace your creativity every day, this episode is for you!

Creativity is something that can help make our jobs a lot easier and more exciting (and yes, this applies even if your job is to look at spreadsheets and respond to emails). Because creativity is an innate part of each of us and is what allows us to problem-solve, look at things from different perspectives, and break away from the grip of perfectionism by embracing experimentation and curiosity.

This week's guest is Dr. Laura Jurgens, who is an Intimacy, Relationship and Embodiement coach. Maria and Laura talk about suppressing your emotions in the workplace, and the devastating impact that can have not only on your relationships and performance at work, but on your health and life outside of work. 

In most workplaces nowadays, having emotions while on the job is strongly discouraged, because we think that allowing feelings is the same as outwardly expressing them at all times (it is not!) As a result, many of us do our best to dissociate from our bodies and our feelings while on the job, thinking that makes us more professional and allows for better work-life balance. However, dissociating from our feelings harms our relationships, can be dangerous for our bodies and health, and it keeps us dissociated from the rest of our lives as well. Not to mention that it definitely does not help our performance and productivity at work.
