If you’ve ever questioned whether you’re “getting your money’s worth” from a course or membership, this episode is for you. I break down how I show up as a program participant, and share how to use any program or membership sustainably, guilt-free, and without burnout. Let’s flip the script on how participation can look, so you can get maximum value your way.

• How to rethink what “maximizing” a membership really means
• Why showing up live isn’t required
• The power of committing to “get what you came for” in any program or group, no matter your style of engagement
• Why taking just one or two actionable nuggets from each lesson can add up to big transformation over time

Ready to reset your expectations and stop beating yourself up? Let’s dive in!

Every assistant faces moments when they feel tossed about by uncontrollable events or difficult colleagues. In this episode, I sit down with Lisa Philyaw; a life coach, community manager, and self-coaching advocate, to unravel how developing the skill of coaching yourself can transform your resilience, resourcefulness, and outcomes both at work and beyond. Together, we share personal stories (think: anxiety spirals and birth plans gone awry), practical frameworks, and emotional tools from the world of professional coaching.

• How to identify when you’re stuck in a thought versus an actual fact, and why this shift in perspective puts the power back in your court
• The essential frameworks and mindset tools for coaching yourself through anxiety, uncertainty, and life’s unplanned events
• How to process and leverage your emotions as powerful guides rather than hurdles

Ready to access your most resilient, resourceful self? This episode is for you!

Are you constantly taking on more and more just to prove your worth, but you’re still worried someone will think you aren't doing enough?

This episode is a game-changer for support professionals who keep saying "yes" and feel overwhelmed or undervalued.

As I write my book and reflect on the core challenges in our industry, I realize how many of us struggle to have honest conversations about our true capacity, our actual capabilities, and what the core function of our roles should be.

Today, I’m diving into why these conversations are non-negotiable if you want to avoid burnout, step into strategic partnership, and design a role that truly fits your strengths.

• Why discussing your capacity, capability, and core function is vital to your career growth and mental health
• Why you may be avoiding these conversations, and the sneaky thoughts underpinning these reasons
• The cost of avoiding these crucial conversations
