    Women on the Rise: from Burn Out to Balance with Mary Harris

    In this powerful episode of the Women on the Rise segment of the BFF Empowerment Podcast, host Blaque Diamond sits down with Mary Harris, a leadership coach (and former engineer of 20 years) now based in the south of France near Nice. Mary shares what sparked her major career pivot—navigating a full life, becoming a stepmom overnight, motherhood, and the wake-up call many women experience when the schedule is packed but something still feels off. Together, they unpack the difference between traditional “push through” productivity and what Mary calls a more sustainable approach: managing your energy, not just your time. You’ll hear Mary break down her Core Energy Coaching perspective, including the four key areas that influence burnout and fulfillment—mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual energy—and how small shifts (like movement, boundaries, alone time, and values alignment) can create big change. Blaque Diamond also opens up about her own journey into becoming a certified empowerment coach, the power of finally making your “natural gift” official, and why self-care is so much deeper than spa days.
