Case Study: The 6-Week Turnaround That Gave This Working Mom Her Life Back

Published about 15 hours ago • 1 min read

Hello Reader,

A Missing Sock Sent Her Over the Edge — Here’s Why

You’d think a C-Suite executive would break down over a missed deadline or a million-dollar deal gone sideways, right?

Nope.

For my client Elaine*, it was her 8-year-old’s lost sock that sent her completely over the edge.

Yep — a sock.

Turns out, the smallest, most innocent requests can be the final straw when you’re burned out and running on fumes.

Elaine was the definition of “high achieving” — reached the C-Suite in her career, book club queen, mom of two, and, of course, the unofficial crisis manager for everyone’s problems. But she was stuck on the burnout hamster wheel, convinced that if she just powered through, she’d eventually feel better. (Spoiler: she didn’t.)

In just six weeks, we flipped the script. She went from people-pleasing her way to exhaustion to building boundaries that gave her back energy, time, and her sense of humor.

Her story doesn't end with hiring a babysitter for her kids or delegating her to-do list. She focused on something else.

do morning routines matter

Hello Reader! Skip the 5 AM Club: A Better Way to Start Your Day I am not a morning person. I used to be. But something clicked inside my head and told me to start sleeping in. I felt really bad about it. Lazy and like I appeared unambitious. Like me, you've likely been inundated with productivity gurus touting the virtues of waking before sunrise, then meditating, journaling, doing vigorous exercise, and eating a healthy breakfast. Is all of that really necessary? Or, does it create more...
