More from More Than A Paycheck
Are you stuck in planning mode? I see it every day with my clients. We think we need the perfect plan before we move forward. Here's the truth: Reading books and listening to podcasts won't get you unstuck. You have to actually do something. It's like learning to snowboard. You can study all you want, but until you strap in and fall down a few times, you're not going to learn. I'm taking a break from the podcast after 5 years of weekly episodes. Why? Because I want you to stop consuming and start creating. Go back and pick one episode. Find one thing you said you'd try. Then actually do it. In this episode, I share: Why consuming information keeps you stuck in burnout The one action that changes everything (hint: it's going from zero to one) How to stop planning and start moving forward today Stop listening. Start doing. That's where real change happens. Ready to take action? Subscribe to this podcast and leave a review. Want personalized help figuring out your next move?

CLICK HERE and join the 30-Day Anti-Anxiety Reset. Starts October 27, 2025. I'll never forget sitting at my desk, crying for 30 straight minutes. My position at Amazon had just been eliminated. I was the sole breadwinner. And I was completely paralyzed by anxiety. That breakdown changed everything. Not because things got easier, but because I finally learned how anxiety was actually costing me—promotions, sleep, relationships, and my sanity. Here's what most people don't understand: anxiety isn't just uncomfortable, it's expensive. When you're too anxious to speak up in meetings, apply for stretch roles, or negotiate your worth, you're leaving tens of thousands of dollars on the table every year. Join the Anti-Anxiety Reset Challenge CLICK HERE to join · The real cost of workplace anxiety (it's more than you think) · How anxiety keeps you stuck in toxic work environments · Why "just managing stress better" doesn't actually work · The 4-week framework that stops anxiety spirals and gets you unstuck · Real stories of professionals who broke free from career paralysis Here's the truth: You can watch all the YouTube videos and read all the books. But knowing what to do isn't your problem—you're not taking action because anxiety has you frozen. I've seen dozens of clients transform their careers in weeks (not years) once they learned to manage their anxiety. One landed a job with a $10k raise before severance ran out. Another escaped a toxic boss and found work they actually enjoy. Another stopped working nights and weekends without changing jobs. The difference? They did the work. If you're tired of anxiety controlling your career decisions, I'm hosting a 30-Day Anti-Anxiety Reset Challenge starting October 27th. Learn the exact tools I used to go from crying at my desk to confidently leading my career.
Stop treating interviews like a one-way audition. I'm sharing my six interview hacks that work whether you're job hunting or pitching for a promotion. Here's the truth: most people tank interviews because they're too desperate or too rehearsed. I spent 12 years at Amazon interviewing hundreds of candidates, and I can tell you the best ones weren't trying to impress me. They were genuinely curious if we were the right fit. This episode breaks down exactly how to show up confident, authentic, and prepared without the anxiety spiral. You'll learn: Why curiosity beats desperation every single time The "taco truck" messaging that makes you memorable How to ask questions that reveal red flags others miss The silence technique that completely changes the dynamic What interviewers are really listening for (hint: not your answers) If you're stuck in workplace anxiety about interviews or dealing with impostor syndrome during your job search, this episode will change how you prepare.

I see this pattern all the time with my coaching clients: brilliant professionals stuck waiting for someone else to tell them they're ready for a promotion. You're probably more ready than you think. Today I'm breaking down the five clear signs that scream "promotion time" - even when your brain is telling you otherwise. This isn't about impostor syndrome or waiting for the perfect moment. It's about recognizing when you're already operating at the next level. Here's what we cover: · Why doing next-level work without next-level pay is basically theft · The leadership behaviors you're already showing (and don't realize) · How workplace anxiety and boredom signal it's time to level up · Why waiting for permission keeps high-performers stuck · The mindset shift that gets results Your company wouldn't hesitate to fire underperformers, so why are you hesitating to advocate for what you deserve? If you're tired of toxic workplace dynamics holding back your career growth, this episode gives you the clarity to take action.
