Kate Eckman is a career coach, who spent her life in high-performance environments — from competitive athletics to television newsrooms — and she knows firsthand what it takes to succeed.

But what makes this conversation special is where her story went next

Along the way, she began asking deeper questions about identity, self-worth, and what happens when the titles we’ve worked so hard for no longer define us. That curiosity led her into mindfulness, positive psychology, and ultimately into coaching high-achieving individuals who are craving something more honest, more grounded, and more fulfilling.

In this episode, we talk openly about navigating a demanding career in journalism, the impact of personal loss and grief, and how those experiences can completely reshape how we see success. We explore the pressures of high achievement, mental health, loneliness, friendships, and the courage it takes to slow down, turn inward, and be emotionally honest with ourselves.

Please welcome Kate Eckman.
