Coach on Call: When Perfectionism and Burnout Collide - Learning to Lead Yourself with Permission, Not Pressure
Description
In this Coach on Call episode of Boss Yourself First, Robyn invites listeners into two powerful, true-to-life coaching sessions that many high achievers will recognize.
Meet Elena, a perfection-driven project manager who believes “flawless equals worthy,” and Marcus, a burned-out executive who fears everything will fall apart if he slows down. Through reflective storytelling, Robyn models how to coach beyond performance into belief, balance, and permission.
You’ll learn why perfectionism and burnout are two sides of the same self-leadership coin and how to reclaim your energy, update unhelpful beliefs, and lead yourself with compassion instead of criticism. Along the way, Robyn shares evidence-based insights from neuroscience and leadership research on why rest fuels creativity and why beliefs, once examined, can literally reshape your brain.
If you’ve ever chased “good enough” that never arrives or worn exhaustion like a badge of honor, this episode is your gentle invitation to lead differently - with permission, not pressure.
