Burnout isn’t a failure. It’s a signal.

In this episode, Ro is joined by Selina Barker, Career and Life Design Coach, author and creator of Time to Thrive, for an honest, grounding conversation about exhaustion, ambition and how women can thrive without burning out.

Selina shares her powerful energy-led approach to wellbeing, including the 5 energy zones, why managing energy matters more than managing time, and how small, realistic shifts can help women feel calmer, clearer and more alive without giving up their goals.

Selina has coached clients including Google, Apple and UN Women, is the author of Burnt Out: The Exhausted Person’s Guide to Thriving in a Fast-Paced World, creator of the Audible series The Career Change Coach, and founder of the Project You journals. Her work has been featured in the Telegraph, Sunday Times Style, Stylist, Grazia, BBC and more.

This episode is compassionate, practical and deeply relatable, especially for busy women navigating midlife, work and family.

Why do so many high-achieving women feel stuck, burnt out, or held back — even when they’re doing all the “right” things?

In this episode, I’m joined by Kerrie Leather, Success Coach and host of The Rip Up The Rule Book Show, to explore why true success isn’t created through hustle and mindset alone — but through the nervous system and the body.

Kerrie supports visionary entrepreneurs, founders, and creatives to rewrite success on their own terms using neuroscience, breathwork, and somatic practices. Together, we unpack:

• Why self-sabotage is often a survival response, not a flaw
• How the nervous system can limit or unlock success
• The link between burnout, midlife, and “pushing through”
• Why perimenopause can force a powerful redefinition of success
• How breathwork and somatic practices help you feel regulated, resourced, and confident

This conversation is especially powerful for midlife women who are tired of hustling, questioning old definitions of success, and ready for a more embodied, sustainable way of working and living.

✨ Free Resource:
Kerrie is offering her free Success Sessions — a suite of breathwork recordings and somatic practices designed to help you regulate your nervous system and step into aligned, embodied success.
