Side Chat: Sharing our most cringeworthy career stories
Clarity on Fire
Happy holidays from Krachel! In the spirit of the season—and to bring you a little extra joy and levity—we’re gifting you this very cringeworthy (for us) and hilarious (for you) episode. Listen in as, like the Ghosts of Careers Past, we take you back in time and share some of the top moments we gave ourselves “the ick” in our careers. Stories where one of us... Accidentally created scandal as a substitute teacher Was thrown a themed going-away party after lying about why she was leaving her job Got fired from a part-time job for a very dumb reason Joined...

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...

A cautionary tale about using AI as your therapist with Amanda Johnson & Chelsea Jewel
Clarity on Fire
A curious pattern emerged within the last year: People — usually friends or coaching clients — keep coming to us, almost sheepishly, and “confessing” that they sometimes use AI (particularly ChatGPT) for emotional support. The thing is … we’ve used it for emotional support, too! AI has a lot of qualities that make it less messy than your average human. It’s a great listener, it’s endlessly patient, and it has access to an infinite amount of knowledge and potential solutions. Plus, using it is (sadly) a LOT cheaper than what you’d pay your average therapist or coach. But...

Dear Krachel: How do I believe in a better future when I keep getting rejected and disappointed?
Clarity on Fire
Welcome to another episode of Dear Krachel (our first since June of 2024!), 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 two listeners who are both questioning what went “wrong” in their lives, how to recover from deep disappointment, and how the future can be better: Bottledottle, a medical school student who doesn’t know if she wants to be a doctor anymore, and who is deeply afraid that she wasted...

What if productivity could feel feminine? With Jamie Knight
Clarity on Fire
“If I didn’t love you, I would hate you.” That’s a direct quote that escaped my mouth while recording this episode with my former client, Jamie Knight. 😆 Jamie inspires such intensity because she’s recovering from being that girl. You know, the cheer captain and valedictorian of her high school class. Got a bachelor’s and master’s degree at the same time, and had a 4.0 in both. Had a top-tier job offer before she even started her last semester of college. Ran half marathons, for fun! Excelled in her career and made absurdly good money by anyone’s...

We’re back! And spilling the tea about the last 15 months
Clarity on Fire
Heyyyy! Did you miss us? Or maybe completely forgot we existed and went on with your life? (Valid, if so). Perhaps you felt a small void in your life where conversations between two friends about all things life and career used to be, that you haven’t been able to fill in the last 15 months. If that’s the case, we have GREAT news for you: The Clarity on Fire Podcast is back! If you’ll recall, we went on hiatus back in June of 2024, mostly because life had taken some wild twists and turns. There’s a LOT to share about what’s happened since then. So, listen is...

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!
