Welcome to StoneCaster, a podcast built on one simple belief: there should be no space, profession, hobby, dream, conversation, or opportunity that women can't be part of. For generations, women have been told where they belong, what they should want, how they should act, and what topics are too uncomfortable to discuss. We're here to cast stones at those norms and challenge the status quo. Hosted by Emily Mae, Stone Casters is a place for women to gather, share stories, ask hard questions, and explore the topics that shape our lives. From careers, leadership, and entrepreneurship to motherhood, infertility, plastic surgery, relationships, health, identity, and everything in between, no topic is off limits. Some episodes will inspire you. Some will educate you. Some will make you laugh, cry, or rethink what you've always believed. Most importantly, they'll remind you that you're not alone. This is a place to be curious. A place to be heard. A place to connect with women from all walks of life who are navigating the same challenges, asking the same questions, and forging their own paths forward. Pull up a chair. Bring your story.  Let's start casting stones.

    The Rumblings: Why So Many Women Feel "Off"

    Send us Fan Mail You did everything you were supposed to do. Built the career. Started the family. Checked all the boxes. So why does something still feel...off? If you've been wondering whether it's burnout, hormones, a changing identity, or simply outgrowing the life you once wanted, this episode is for you. Executive coach Megan Walsh, founder of Walsh Insights LLC, joins me to unpack the quiet "rumblings" so many women experience in their 30s, 40s, and beyond. We talk about burnout, reinvention, women's health, career pivots, and why wanting something different doesn't mean you've failed, it may mean you've grown. If you've ever thought, "I should be happy...so why doesn't it feel that way?"—you're not alone. Guest Bio Today's guest is Megan Walsh, an executive coach and founder of Walsh Insights LLC, where she helps high-achieving women reclaim their ambition and build careers that actually fit the lives they want to live. Before launching her coaching practice, Megan led technical teams as Vice President of Data Science at Nielsen and Head of Research at Capital One. With degrees in psychology from the University of Michigan and Johns Hopkins University, she blends science, leadership, and real-world experience to help women navigate career transitions, burnout, and personal reinvention. I couldn't think of a better person to have this conversation with. https://walshinsightsllc.com/about LinkedIN: https://www.linkedin.com/in/megan-kay-walsh/ Thank you for listening to Stone Casters.
