103. Burnout or Bad Fit? The Question That Could Change Your Career

Tuesday, June 10, 2025 • Duration 26:52

You’re tired, snappy, and counting down the hours until the weekend. But is it really burnout, or is your job just out of alignment with your actual life?

In this powerful second episode of the burnout series, I'm breaking down what burnout actually is (with definitions from WHO + SLP research) and how to figure out if your stress is coming from exhaustion, unmet needs, or the wrong job altogether.

You’ll Learn:

The 3 signs of burnout that go beyond “being tired”
What it means to be misaligned at work (and how it shows up in your body + thoughts)
Why switching jobs might not fix the real problem
Key questions to ask before you quit, change settings, or switch careers

“We think we’re burned out, but sometimes we’re just stuck in a pattern that doesn’t match our values. And no new job can fix that.”

Tuesday, April 8, 2025 • Duration 25:41

Are you constantly thinking about unfinished tasks while you're trying to focus (or relax)? 🧠 You're not alone! In this episode, we're diving deep into the sneaky productivity killer that's exhausting so many of us — open loops.

I’ll explain exactly what open loops are, how they quietly drain your mental energy, and most importantly, how to finally close them (without getting sucked into rabbit holes or perfectionism).

We'll tackle:
✅ The difference between open loops and healthy task management
✅ Why SLPs and busy moms are especially prone to open loops
✅ The balance between starting tasks in small pockets of time and keeping loops from piling up

✅ Practical, doable strategies to finally close your loops — and keep them closed!

Whether you're an SLP juggling reports and session notes, a busy mom spinning too many plates, or just someone trying to reclaim your mental space, this episode will give you the tools you need to breathe easier and work smarter.

4. Boundaries in Your Private Practice: Breaking Down the WHY and the HOW

Tuesday, July 18, 2023 • Duration 42:27

If you struggle with saying no to session times that don't work well for your schedule, chances are it's a boundary issue. If you constantly bring work home with you and feel resentful while you do it, chances are it's a boundary issue. If you have a hard time with shutting your office door and getting work done, then--you guessed it--you probably have a boundary issue.

As busy clinicians or private practice owners, we're givers and helpers. We want to make everyone happy, especially our clients and our staff. As a result, it can be difficult to establish--and enforce--boundaries in the workplace. In today's episode, I'm breaking down the five most common challenges I see with my coaching clients when it comes to setting boundaries in the workplace. We'll uncover what they are and what you can do to avoid falling into these traps. If you're ready to create a work environment that works for YOU, then tune in to today's episode.

Tuesday, July 4, 2023 • Duration 39:30

In today's episode, I share an intimate look into my own struggle with all-or-nothing thinking and how it's affected not only my personal life as a parent but also my professional life as a speech pathologist and productivity coach.

I'm breaking down the sneaky ways that all-or-nothing thinking shows up disguised as truth. I explore how this thought pattern can influence our work as speech pathologists and the ripple effects it may have on our businesses and our clients.

This episode also tackles how this all-or-nothing thinking can distort our perception of time and our decisions in how we spend it. And as always, I'm sharing a few of my favorite tips for breaking free from all-or-nothing thinking and take back control of your time!
