    Ep. 222 - You’re Not Too Much. But You Might Be Too Unfiltered.

    Send us Fan Mail You’re smart. You’re capable. You know your stuff. So why can one conversation leave you wondering whether you’re actually being experienced the way you intended? As you move into bigger roles, your communication becomes more than what you say. It becomes your influence, your reputation and the culture you create around you. This episode will challenge you to look at the gap between your intention and your impact - and why “I’m just being honest” isn’t always enough. You’ll learn the difference between real talk and reckless talk, why confidence sometimes looks like silence, how to stop making other people carry your emotions, and the three questions to ask before saying something difficult: Who’s in the room?What do I want them to feel?Is this mine to say?You don’t need to become quieter, less direct or less yourself. You need to become more intentional with your voice, so your communication finally matches the level of career you’re building. If this episode resonated with you, don't leave it as another podcast insight. Whether you're navigating a leadership challenge, struggling with confidence, feeling overwhelmed, or simply looking for a fresh perspective, coaching can help you move forward with greater clarity, confidence, and calm. If you're ready for that next step, book a session at www.rhiannonbush.com. No discovery call. No sales pitch. Just coaching. I'd love to work with you.

    Ep. 221 - You Should Have Known. But Should You?

    Send us Fan Mail Ever walked away from a conversation at work thinking, “Wait… was I actually supposed to know that?” You’re capable, proactive and used to taking ownership. But when someone senior tells you that you “should have known”, it can trigger something much bigger than the original mistake. Suddenly you’re questioning your competence, replaying the conversation and wondering what they think of you. In this episode, you’ll learn how to separate accountability from over-responsibility... and stop carrying responsibility for information nobody actually gave you. You’ll discover how to: distinguish what you actually knew from what you’re assuming you should have knownstop treating other people’s poor communication as evidence something is wrong with youtake the right responsibility without becoming the fall guycommunicate your expectations clearly and teach people how to work with youhandle difficult feedback without letting it knock you off centreYou can own your mistakes without making yourself wrong. If this episode resonated with you, don't leave it as another podcast insight. Whether you're navigating a leadership challenge, struggling with confidence, feeling overwhelmed, or simply looking for a fresh perspective, coaching can help you move forward with greater clarity, confidence, and calm.

    Ep. 220 - The Person Who Lives in Your Head Rent-Free

    Send us Fan Mail You know that person at work whose opinion seems to take up far more space in your head than it deserves. You respect them. You may even admire them. But they’re hard to read, unavailable, and somehow you find yourself second-guessing decisions, managing their reactions and wondering whether you’re doing something wrong. In this episode, you’ll discover how to separate facts from the story you’ve built around someone’s behaviour, distinguish unavailability from genuine untrustworthiness, and ask the question that changes everything: what have they actually earned from you? More importantly, you’ll uncover whether you’ve outsourced your confidence, safety or sense of belonging to someone else’s approval. You’ll learn how to stay warm without chasing, discerning without becoming cynical, and respectful without surrendering your authority. Because you don’t need everyone in your corner. You need to trust yourself enough to make your own decisions. If this episode resonated with you, don't leave it as another podcast insight. Whether you're navigating a leadership challenge, struggling with confidence, feeling overwhelmed, or simply looking for a fresh perspective, coaching can help you move forward with greater clarity, confidence, and calm. If you're ready for that next step, book a session at www.rhiannonbush.com. No discovery call. No sales pitch. Just coaching. I'd love to work with you.

    Ep. 219 - How to Stop Disappearing From Your Own Life

    Send us Fan Mail What if the life you’ve built isn’t the problem... but somewhere along the way, you disappeared from it? You can be grateful for your career, your relationships, your family and everything you’ve achieved, while still wanting something different. You can be proud of where you are and quietly wonder, “Is this really enough for me?” In this episode, you’ll explore the difference between stopping wanting something and stopping yourself from wanting it and why practicality, responsibility and exhaustion can quietly bury your ambition. You’ll be challenged to ask what you’ve convinced yourself you don’t want because admitting you want it would require you to change something. Because maybe you don’t need a bigger life. Maybe you need a more inhabited one.  One that actually contains you. If this episode resonated with you, don't leave it as another podcast insight. Whether you're navigating a leadership challenge, struggling with confidence, feeling overwhelmed, or simply looking for a fresh perspective, coaching can help you move forward with greater clarity, confidence, and calm. If you're ready for that next step, book a session at www.rhiannonbush.com. No discovery call. No sales pitch. Just coaching. I'd love to work with you.

    Ep. 218 - What If You’re Not Average - Just Empty?

    Send us Fan Mail You’re doing well. You’re competent, reliable, trusted and probably the person everyone turns to when something needs fixing. So why can’t you shake the feeling that you should be further along by now? In this episode, you’ll hear a very different take on that nagging sense of dissatisfaction. Maybe you haven’t lost your ambition. Maybe you’re simply exhausted from spending years watering everyone else’s garden while forgetting that you’re thirsty too. You’ll discover why your greatest strengths - being capable, responsible, resilient and high-performing - can quietly become the very things that keep you stuck. You’ll explore the grief of the life you imagined but didn’t live, why “just be grateful” isn’t always the answer, and why you don’t necessarily need to blow up your life to feel like yourself again. You may not need a new life. You may need access to more of the one you’ve already built. If this episode resonated with you, don't leave it as another podcast insight. Whether you're navigating a leadership challenge, struggling with confidence, feeling overwhelmed, or simply looking for a fresh perspective, coaching can help you move forward with greater clarity, confidence, and calm. If you're ready for that next step, book a session at www.rhiannonbush.com. No discovery call. No sales pitch. Just coaching. I'd love to work with you.

    Ep. 217 - What If You Don’t Need to Finish Everything?

    Send us Fan Mail You had a productive day. You solved problems, helped your team, moved important work forward… so why do you go home feeling like you’ve achieved nothing? If your brain keeps scanning for the things you didn’t finish, this episode is for you. You’ll discover why unfinished work can become so much more than an incomplete task - it can start feeling like evidence that you’re behind, overwhelmed or not in control. You’ll learn how to: Stop confusing completion with controlTake important work off your mental “open tabs”Create simple containers for what isn’t finished yetKeep progressing without feeling permanently behindBuild the self-trust to say, “I’m someone who finishes what matters.”Most importantly, you’ll discover that you don’t need everything finished to feel in control. You need to trust yourself to prioritise what matters, pause what doesn’t, and come back to it when the time is right. Because progress doesn’t require everything to be done. If this episode resonated with you, don't leave it as another podcast insight. Whether you're navigating a leadership challenge, struggling with confidence, feeling overwhelmed, or simply looking for a fresh perspective, coaching can help you move forward with greater clarity, confidence, and calm.

    Ep. 216 - Who Is Telling the Story About You? Pt2

    Send us Fan Mail You know you’re capable. You work hard, solve problems, support your team and quietly keep things moving. But there’s a frustrating truth about career progression: people can’t see your intentions. They can only see your behaviour. And sometimes the very things you’re doing to prove you’re ready for more - saying yes, taking on everything, staying humble, keeping your head down - can accidentally send the opposite message. In this episode, you’ll learn how to close the gap between the leader you know you are and the leader other people actually experience. You’ll discover how to: recognise the signals your behaviour is sendingmake your value visible without self-promotingstop using overwork to prove your capabilitycommunicate priorities and boundaries like a leaderuse a simple five-question “optics audit” to change how you show upYou don’t need to become louder, more impressive or better at playing the corporate game. You need your behaviour to tell the truth about what you’re capable of. If this episode resonated with you, don't leave it as another podcast insight. Whether you're navigating a leadership challenge, struggling with confidence, feeling overwhelmed, or simply looking for a fresh perspective, coaching can help you move forward with greater clarity, confidence, and calm.

    Ep. 215 - Who Is Telling the Story About You? Pt1

    Send us Fan Mail You know you're good at what you do. You think things through.  You solve problems.  You keep your word.  You support your team.  You don't need to be the loudest person in the room - and you certainly don't want to spend your career performing for approval. But here's the problem: While you're busy doing the work, other people are deciding what your work means. They see you stay quiet and make their own assumptions. They see you take on more and decide what that says about you. They see you minimise a win, soften an opinion or quietly fix a problem - and then build a story about who you are, what you're capable of and whether you're ready for more. And you might not even realise you're handing them the pen. In this episode, you'll discover how to hold space for yourself as a competent professional and take more ownership of the narrative you're creating at work, without becoming performative, political or self-promotional. You'll learn what to make visible, when silence is actually powerful, when it starts working against you, and how to communicate your thinking in a way that builds credibility and trust.  Because you don't control what everyone thinks of you. But you do have a say in the evidence you're giving them. And that is a very different kind of confidence. If this episode resonated with you, don't leave it as another podcast insight. Whether you're navigating a leadership challenge, struggling with confidence, feeling overwhelmed, or simply looking for a fresh perspective, coaching can help you move forward with greater clarity, confidence, and calm. If you're ready for that next step, book a session at www.rhiannonbush.com. No discovery call. No sales pitch. Just coaching. I'd love to work with you.
