    E51: Why Your Ambition Is Outpacing Your Energy with Cathy Cury

    If you’re ambitious, driven, and still somehow exhausted… this episode is for you. In this episode of the Goalpreneur Podcast, I sit down with Cathy Cury, a national board-certified health and wellness coach, to talk about burnout, energy depletion, and what it actually takes to create sustainable habits that support your goals instead of draining you. This is a grounded, real conversation for high-achieving women who are tired of quick fixes and ready to feel energized without slowing their ambition. What We Talk About in This Episode Burnout doesn’t always look like collapse.Kathy shares her personal journey through burnout, not once, but twice… first as a teacher and later as a professional chef working on private and chartered yachts. While the lifestyle looked glamorous, constant travel, long hours, and saying yes to everything slowly eroded her health. We talk about how burnout often comes from being capable, reliable, and driven… not lazy or unmotivated. Why ambition eventually outpaces energyAs Cathy explains, what feels manageable in your 20s and early 30s often becomes unsustainable over time. Long weekends stop fixing the fatigue. Recovery takes longer. And the belief that you’re “invincible” quietly fades. This episode helps you recognize when your lifestyle is no longer aligned with your long-term health. The Power of Sustainable Change (Not Quick Fixes) Cathy introduces Method 52, her 52-week framework designed to help professionals close the gap between ambition and energy through small, realistic habit changes. Instead of extreme diets, rigid routines, or short-term resets, Method 52 focuses on: Building habits that fit real life Creating structure around change Making consistency feel doable, not overwhelming As she puts it… change only works when your life can actually hold it. Key Takeaways from This Episode Burnout often comes from capability, not weakness Ambition without recovery leads to long-term depletion Identity-based habits create sustainable change Small, structured adjustments beat drastic overhauls Your energy is a strategy, not a side effect If you’re ready to reclaim your energy while still going after what you want, this episode will meet you exactly where you are.

    Finding love later in life can feel overwhelming… especially in today’s fast-paced, swipe-driven dating world. In this episode of the Goalpreneur Podcast, I sit down with dating and relationship coach Sibylle Ansley to talk honestly about modern dating challenges women face after 35, how dating dynamics shift over time, and what actually matters when you’re seeking a real, lasting connection. Sibylle shares insights from her personal journey and years of coaching women through relationship patterns, self-trust, and emotional clarity. Why dating often feels harder after 35 (and what’s really happening behind the scenes) How dating expectations change for both men and women as life gets fuller The evolution of dating apps and why online dating is now unavoidable for most people Where meaningful connections actually happen… beyond bars and apps The danger of instant gratification culture in dating Why real love requires time, boundaries, and vulnerability This conversation is grounding, refreshing, and deeply validating for women who are tired of surface-level dating and ready for something more intentional. Dating dynamics shift significantly after 35, changing expectations and experiences. Online dating has become a primary way people meet, whether we love it or not.

    Rebuilding Self After A Hellish Marriage

    Have you ever looked around your life and thought,“Nothing is technically wrong… so why does everything feel so heavy?” In this episode, I’m talking about what happens to your creativity, clarity, and sense of self after a stressful or painful season in a relationship or marriage. Not the dramatic moments… but the quiet, day-to-day weight that builds when you’ve been holding too much for too long. We’re talking about the kind of stress that doesn’t always look obvious on the outside…but slowly drains your energy, inspiration, and trust in yourself. If you’ve felt foggy, uninspired, emotionally tired, or unsure of who you are becoming next… this conversation is for you. • Why long-term relationship stress quietly shuts down creativity• How emotional tension shows up in the body and mind• Why reinvention doesn’t start with adding more to your life• Three simple shifts that helped me feel aligned again• What happens when you finally eliminate the excess — mentally and emotionally• How clarity and creativity return when your system feels safe again After a hard relationship season, many women try to move forward by doing more.More routines.More goals.More change. But when your nervous system has been living in tension, adding more only creates more noise. Creativity needs space.Clarity needs quiet.Alignment needs honesty. This episode walks through how letting go — not pushing harder — created the biggest shift for me. When you stop carrying emotional excess, something subtle but powerful happens. Your mind feels clearer.Your body relaxes.Your ideas come back online. You don’t force a new version of yourself.You uncover the one that was already there. If you’re in a season where you want things to feel lighter, simpler, and more intentional — I’ve created resources that support exactly that.

    How To Close The Exhausting Mental Loops

Here’s the thing nobody tells you:Your brain treats every single unfinished task as active business.So even if you’re “not thinking about it”… oh, your brain is. Loudly. In this episode, I break down:✨ What open loops really are✨ How they drain your energy, focus, and emotional bandwidth✨ Why avoidance keeps them running in the background like 47 tabs on an old laptop✨ And how closing those loops, even the tiny ones, gives you back your clarity and control I’m also sharing my go-to method for closing loops daily and a little teaser about my 30-Day Challenge ... created for the woman who’s tired of procrastinating, tired of feeling behind, and ready to actually finish what she starts. Because let’s be honest… only a small percentage of people finish their New Year’s resolutions. And that gap?That’s a self-trust problem, not a motivation problem. So if you’re ready to:✔ stop letting your to-dos run your life✔ close the circles your brain keeps obsessing over✔ end the procrastination habit✔ and build trust with yourself again… Then this episode is your permission slip to start.
