How to use AI as your coach (without losing yourself) with R.A. Williams
Clarity on Fire
A few months ago, we released that sparked a LOT of conversation. And many of you admitted (a little sheepishly) that you use AI for emotional processing, brainstorming, or decision-making. So… we’re continuing the conversation. This time, Kristen sits down with returning guest (and Kristen’s client!) R.A. Williams — a London-based coach who has spent the last year building an AI-powered thinking tool based on her own coaching framework. After our previous episode exposed the dangers of using AI like a therapist, this conversation explores something...

Side Chat: Death of the Girlboss
Clarity on Fire
Back in 2016—a full decade ago, somehow—I wrote a blog called . I’m laughing and cringing at the hashtag in the title, but that’s what it was like back then! Everything was made better by a hashtag. And there was a lot to be embarrassed of beyond hashtags, too. In hindsight, the whole girlboss era was pretty cringey. But at the time, it was the height of cool! Which is why I had to “confess” that I didn’t want to actually be a girlboss. So, join us for a brand-new Side Chat where we look back on the 2010s and break down how the entire concept of careers...

Bonus Book Club! All the Way to the River by Elizabeth Gilbert
Clarity on Fire
Calling all fellow bookworms, library nerds, and general lovers of literature — it’s time for another book club episode of the podcast! Whenever there are five Fridays in a month, we devote the extra Friday to a book that we can’t get enough of. And wow, we REALLY cannot get enough — and can’t stop thinking about — All the Way to the River by Elizabeth Gilbert. This book is both incredibly popular and intriguingly divisive. People either love it or hate it, which made us all too curious to dive in. All the Way to the River is a memoir about...

Dear Krachel: Help! I accidentally catfished my employer!
Clarity on Fire
Welcome to another episode of Dear Krachel, our advice segment where we answer listener questions about life, career, relationships, existential angst, and anything that helps you become a more whole, fulfilled version of yourself. This month we answered questions from three listeners, two of which are in what you might call a complete doozy of a situation: Ledger Impostress, who was desperate for a job and applied for a bookkeeping position, thinking she’d never get it. She may have (significantly) exaggerated her experience in the interview, too. And now… oops, she...

Manifesting your ideal life after 40 with Dana Smith
Clarity on Fire
Want to know one of the fears we’ve heard repeated the most in our 13+ years as coaches? “It’s too late for me to make a change.” Sometimes that sounds like, “I’m too old,” or, “I’m afraid I’ve wasted my life,” or, “I’ve invested too much to start over. I have to keep going even though I’m miserable.” One of our favorite parts about coaching is getting to prove those fears wrong, over and over again. Which is why we had to ask Rachel’s client Dana to be our latest “normal person” interviewee. Dana is the living...

info_outlineYou know what I’m tired of?
Neat, tidy stories of success that tie everything in a bow by the end and make life look a little too simple.
To be fair, we’ve published our fair share of stories like that on this podcast! But this year, we’ve made a big effort to showcase “normal person” stories that are very much still unfolding–because when it comes to your actual life, the story is never done. There’s always a new twist, a new drama, or something else you haven’t achieved yet.
Which is why I’m really excited to share my client Sarah’s story with you!
Sarah has been through some major highs and lows in the last year, and the plot twists keep coming. Listen in as Sarah and I get into…
- Working through her fears that she wasn’t capable of making a big career transition
- How we created a list of non-negotiable needs she must get met in a new job (and how she ended up with a job that checked EVERY box)
- How she gave the Universe a deadline about finding a job, and the nail-biting process of trusting that it would come through in time
- The surprise twist that unfolded after she got her ideal job
Come leave a comment after you’ve listened to share how Sarah’s journey resonated with you!
