Show Notes
The travel schedules and time zone tango is real. This week, revisit one of the most downloaded episodes this season, with Rachelle Tanguay.
What if your biggest career obstacle isn't external—it's the "broken code" running in your own head?
Rachelle Tanguay joins the show to unpack the difference between consuming self-help content and actually doing the uncomfortable work of rewiring your internal programming.
From advising deputy ministers to coaching professionals across sectors, she's seen what happens when high-performers hit the wall between knowing what to do and actually being able to execute.
This conversation cuts through the dopamine-hit culture of five-minute reels and quick fixes. Rachelle breaks down why most people confuse consuming content with doing the work, how imposter syndrome is not your own voice "chirping in your ear," and why even the most senior leaders need help to see the forest through the trees.
If you've ever wondered why smart people with all the right information still can't break through their own barriers, this episode is for you. No buzzwords, no corporate speak—just an honest look at what it takes to level up when the real bottleneck is you.
