Therapy vs. Coaching, Leadership, and the Inner Work of Work

What separates great leaders from ones who quietly destroy their teams? And when you're the one burning out at the top — do you stay or go? Kealy Spring, licensed therapist and executive coach in the San Francisco Bay Area, breaks down the inner psychology of leadership, what executive coaching actually is, and why most people calling themselves coaches probably aren't.   In This Episode * Therapy vs. coaching — where they overlap and where the line actually is * The energy audit: a practical tool for diagnosing burnout before deciding to stay or quit * Golden handcuffs — how to think through ambivalence when the pay is great but you're miserable * The 3-step cognitive reframe for catching distorted thinking at work (mind reading, personalization, and more) * Imposter syndrome across career stages — and why it hits differently for women * The double bind for women in leadership: likable vs. competent, and how to navigate it * Why less than 10% of coaches are actually thriving — and what the unregulated industry gets wrong Key Takeaways 🔑 The energy audit isn't about adding to your plate — it's about gathering data so you know where to work the edges. 🔑 Cognitive distortions don't stay home when you go to work. Name it → check your evidence → reframe. 🔑 Coaching is strategic and time-limited. Therapy goes deeper into patterns and history. You may need both.

Conflict Is the Symptom, Not the Problem: Couples Therapy, Intensives, and the Power of Experiential Connection with Carole Cullen

What if the problem in your relationship isn’t the argument you keep having—but the pattern underneath it? Therapist Carole Cullen explores how couples can move from disconnection to deeper intimacy using a mix of structured tools, emotional processing, and experiential learning. Carole shares how she integrates the John Gottman Method and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), why traditional 50-minute sessions often fall short, and how immersive couples intensives can create breakthroughs in just a few days. We also dive into her innovative membership model, The Work of Us, which combines therapy, community, and real-life experiences—from Pilates to equine-assisted learning—to help couples reconnect outside the therapy room. If you’ve ever felt stuck in the same conflict loop, this episode will help you understand why—and what actually creates change.   Carole's Resources: Website: https://mytherapistnc.org/ Couples Workshops: https://www.couplesworkshopsnc.com/   Brittani's Resources Website: ⁠https://www.brittaniprocknow.com/⁠ [https://www.brittaniprocknow.com/] IG: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/brittani_procknow⁠ [https://www.instagram.com/brittani_procknow] Intimacy Workbook: ⁠https://howtorelate.kit.com/b956780219⁠ [https://howtorelate.kit.com/b956780219] Newsletter: ⁠https://howtorelate.kit.com/e9f87bb2dc⁠ [https://howtorelate.kit.com/e9f87bb2dc]   Support the show and drink coffee!
