“Failing at life” & retreating to Italy with Susanne Reichart 06/14/2024

“Failing at life” & retreating to Italy with Susanne Reichart In the last few years my client Susanne went from having a very normal, run-of-the-mill career to relocating to Italy, renovating a beautiful property, and opening a retreat space (she calls it a “thinker’s residence”) for creative people who long for peace and quiet to work on their most important projects. Getting to help Susanne take this dream from vision to reality has been a highlight of my last few years as a coach, and I’m so excited to finally get to share her story with all of you! Listen in to this month’s brand-new interview with a normal person, where Susanne and I get into… How she came up with such a big vision for her life, and how long she marinated on it before taking it seriously Why she blocked herself from acting on what she wanted for many years How she released some of her biggest, most debilitating limitations, and took huge risks (that clearly ended up paying off) The many ups and downs of turning her vision into a reality And what it’s like now, running a property in Italy for creative people (and how you can stay there!) Come after you’ve listened to share how Susanne’s journey resonated with you! MORE ABOUT SUSANNE Spiritually confused, fearful of action and inaction, and utterly confused by life—what it means and how to live it—while maintaining a façade of "functioning" ... this was Susanne’s state of mind a couple of years ago. For way too long she tried to fit in, avoid mistakes, and attempt to act, be, and do what she thought others might find acceptable. Finally, she found the courage to cast off her debilitating fears and pursue what she truly wanted, and go all in on it. She allowed herself to dream—not bigger, but more aligned to who she is. She realized that once she let go of the fear of others' opinions, her life would no longer feel so exhausting. She discovered that she didn’t need to change herself as much as her environment to better suit her, leading her to finally feel happy, fulfilled, and in love with life. Susanne is the owner of , a sanctuary for thinkers, creators, and dreamers who want to rediscover their passion, dive deep into their work, and to emerge with something not just completed, but transformed into a masterpiece. Suflora's fully-equipped apartments are designed as your private think-tank, where you can work, cook, eat, rest, and create at your own pace, surrounded by the inspiring beauty of Umbria, Italy.

Exploring the nervous system with Amanda Johnson 05/31/2024

Exploring the nervous system with Amanda Johnson It’s the fifth Friday of the month, which means this should be a “bonus book club” episode––it isn’t, but it’s also not NOT a book club episode, either. 🙃😂 During our last book club conversation about Attached with Amanda Johnson – our friend, fellow coach, and all-around expert on attachment theory – we said that we wanted to have Amanda back on the podcast to have an episode devoted completely to the nervous system. So, that’s what we did! Amanda is back on the podcast this month to help us explore all facets of the nervous system, using one book in particular to guide the way. Listen in as we get into… What the nervous system actually is, and why it’s SO important to understand your own What’s happening in our bodies when we get triggered/scared/excited How to heal old, stuck issues that have been plaguing you for years (maybe even your entire life!) And soooo much more! We’re convinced that, at this point, there is NOTHING more important than understanding your nervous system. There’s something all of us can learn in this episode! And stay tuned until the end of the episode for a VERY generous offer from Amanda. 👀 after you’ve listened to let us know what resonated most from this conversation. MORE ABOUT AMANDA Amanda Johnson is the owner of Heartspark – a heart-centered life coaching and intuitive energy work practice based outside of Boston. Amanda's passion lies in the idea that each of our hearts is guiding the way to our most expansive lives – but that to live from the heart, we need to first get in touch with who we really are, not who we've been told to be. That requires a deep dive into how our emotions and energy are currently showing up, and identifying what shifts can be made to uncover the magic that exists within each of us. It also requires an understanding of how our bodies and minds work, so that we can bring ourselves into balance. Through Heartspark, Amanda combines her experience, education and interests (she loves an adhd tangent!) to offer a variety of session types – everything from energy-focused coaching to intuitive visioning to workshops on the nervous system. Amanda has an undergraduate degree in journalism, an MBA from Boston College, and is a Reiki Master and iPEC Certified Life Coach. She believes that all of the answers you are looking for are within you, and that having the support to listen to yourself to find your truth is the way to freedom, evolution and fully enjoying your life experience!

Trusting things will work out (even when life goes sideways) with Sarah Tucker 05/10/2024

Trusting things will work out (even when life goes sideways) with Sarah Tucker You 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 after you’ve listened to share how Sarah’s journey resonated with you! MORE ABOUT SARAH Sarah's life story is a rich blend of unexpected twists and turns. Spending many of her formative years overseas as an expat, she developed a love of diverse cultures and people, which led her to seek beauty in the world around her. From immersing herself in the beauty and medical aesthetics industry to creating one-of-a-kind charcuterie boards that she sold in West Elm, and even working in media & public relations, she's embraced creative and diverse paths. Sarah's career journey has taken her from department and specialty store settings to clinical environments, where she's witnessed the transformative power of self-care. Still, despite her past roles in various industries, Sarah's true passion lies in helping others discover their inner and outer beauty while embracing their true identity and living wholeheartedly. With an all-in commitment to relinquishing control and allowing her faith in God to guide her, Sarah's story serves as a beacon of hope for those seeking to navigate life's uncertainties. So, to anyone feeling weary and overwhelmed, take heart—Sarah's experiences demonstrate that with hope, courage and openness, remarkable transformations are within reach. Dream BIG.

Dear Krachel: How do I improve my life without changing jobs again? 05/03/2024

Dear Krachel: How do I improve my life without changing jobs again? Welcome to another episode of Dear Krachel, our monthly 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: Blue Millennial, who is still only just scraping by financially after 10 years in the working world. The hobby that brings her joy is traveling, but she can’t afford it very often. She doesn’t have the energy to take on a side gig for extra income, and she doesn’t want to switch jobs yet again (which never solves her problems, anyway). How can she possibly improve her life under such confining circumstances? Renee, who works in large organization with a pretty rigid hierarchy. Her boss’ boss is rude, condescending, abrasive, and judgmental to almost everyone, Renee included. Except she needs this higher-up to at least kind of like her if she wants to get promoted. How do you build a relationship with someone who wants nothing to do with you? Maddy, who in recent years has worked on developing her intuition and has gotten better at following nudges and signs. But now she’s wondering, does she need to act on every nudge? How do you tell which intuitive hits are worth acting on, and what might just be shiny objects you’re mistaking for intuition? Come after you’ve listened to share how our advice for these listeners resonated with you! LAST DAY TO SIGN UP FOR COACHING! If you’re relating a little too hard to this episode – maybe you’re burned out and need a change but can’t imagine how you’d find the energy or know-how to make it happen on your own –well, that’s what 1:1 coaching is for! It takes you from doubt, confusion, and burnout to confidence, clarity, and fulfillment in a matter of months. And the best part?

What happens when you work against your Passion Profile with Joanna Platt 03/08/2024

What happens when you work against your Passion Profile with Joanna Platt I was on the phone recently with my and Kristen’s friend Joanna (who’s appeared on the podcast a time or two before!), who was telling me about exhausted and demoralized she’s been about her career lately. Joanna’s Passion Profile is Collaborator, which means the thing she values above everything else is connection and, well, collaboration. Except she’s been trying for 5 years to run a business … by herself. It became clear as we were talking that her career woes are almost certainly a result of working out of alignment with her Passion Profile for so long. Before we hung up she said, “If you ever want me to come on the podcast to talk about this, I totally would!” And hey, I’m not one to turn down a good guest! So, listen in to this month’s brand-new episode with a normal person, where Joanna and I get into: How she got tunnel vision around her career, and blocked out signs that the path she was going down might not be right for her Why having the freedom to whatever she wanted, whenever she wanted day after day – a dream come true for some people – actually made her miserable The difference between career problems and “alignment problems,” and how to recognize when you’re out of alignment Come after you’ve listened to share how this conversation resonated with you! MORE ABOUT JOANNA Joanna Platt is the creator of The Joy of Enough Method, a system that helps high-achievers break out of the cycle of burnout so they can have more “life’s good” moments. Joanna coaches high-achievers who are on a never-ending treadmill of obligations and to-dos and burn themselves out again and again. She helps her clients create and implement a Burnout to Balance Blueprint so that they can be present with their people, take care of their health and wellbeing, and be an A-player at work.

Overcoming fear of literally everything with Mary Cardenas 01/19/2024

Overcoming fear of literally everything with Mary Cardenas When I first met Mary, she was at a near-breaking point. She’d pivoted from one industry to the next, over and over again, and was no closer to career satisfaction. She was incredibly burned out from a job that expected her to handle more than one person’s workload in a day (and where she never, EVER took a lunch break). And she was scared of everything, even reasonable things––taking her daily lunch, asking for a work-from-home day (at a company where other people worked remotely), setting boundaries around her time. In this month’s brand-new interview with a normal person, Mary and I get into … Why she ended up so terrified of literally everything How things started to make sense once I told her she was suffering from “vulnerability intolerance” The small shifts she made that helped her go from petrified 24/7 to living a life of ease, peace, and creativity Our shared thoughts about how fear shows up in dating, in particular, and how we both overcome that And SO much more! Come after you’ve listened to share how Mary’s journey resonated with you! APPLY TO WORK WITH US 1:1! If Mary’s journey resonated with you – If you find yourself fearful, stuck, overwhelmed and are SO ready for things to change – then we’ve got good news: We’re CURRENTLY accepting applications for new coaching clients! We officially open doors for new clients just a few times per year, so if now feels like the right time, let’s talk. We have space for maybe 10 clients (and some of those spots are already gone!), so act quickly if you think this could be for you. This is for people interested in getting started ASAP (in January/February). We have both smaller and larger options for 1:1 coaching, and can talk through which one is best for you. You don’t have to know for sure that you want to move ahead with coaching. You just have to be serious enough about it to want to have a conversation. Ready to talk about it? , and one of us will schedule an info session with you! MORE ABOUT MARY Mary Cardenas is a writer, Thriver, and recovering people pleaser. Between turns as a makeup artist and an assistant in LA’s film and television industry, Major League Baseball, and higher education philanthropy… Mary continued to find herself at odds with how she wanted to feel- and actually felt in each new role. A few months in, regardless of how different each landscape or location was- she was inevitably frustrated by each new job. Tired of not feeling like her most-favorite-version of herself all of the time, Mary enrolled in coaching. With Rachel’s guidance, her work-life balance, creative flow, and her authentic self all finally fell into alignment. LINKS /episode/index/show/clarityonfire/id/29544918

From totally shut down to feeling your feelings again with Amanda Johnson 06/09/2023

From totally shut down to feeling your feelings again with Amanda Johnson For most of her life, Amanda Johnson excelled at being “the good girl.” She was a stellar student who knew how to play by the rules, whether that was in school, at church, or with friends or family. She implicitly understood what was acceptable, and what wasn’t, so she followed the prescription for a successful life: Go to college, major in something respectable and useful, get a good job, get married, have 2 children, get an MBA, move up the career ladder. Until one day, almost like coming out of a coma, she said she “woke up in the middle of a life.” She’d built an entire life, and wasn’t sure how she’d done it, or whether she’d truly chosen any of it consciously. And then the real work began. Listen in as Amanda and Rachel get into… What it means to be living a “good girl” kind of life, and what happened when Amanda decided to be “bad,” instead How she started to access her true feelings and opinions again, after a live lived mostly on autopilot Amanda’s 180-degree career pivot, and how she exited the corporate world The incredible gifts she quickly developed once she was free to be herself, and how she’s using them to help herself and others Come after you’ve listened to share how Amanda’s journey resonated with you! MORE ABOUT AMANDA Amanda Johnson is your typical high-energy, over-achieving, perfectionist, people pleaser type who, by all accounts, looked great on paper, but wasn't feeling a whole lot of anything for a long time. After years of building a successful career in the marketing world, Amanda had a wake up call in the form of a full blown spiritual awakening and started questioning pretty much every facet of her life. After coaching with Rachel, and working for the past several years toward calling in more authenticity and alignment, Amanda's gifts came online in a big way. Recently, Amanda made some serious changes to her life, including pivoting away from her corporate life to launch Heartspark, an intuitively based energy work and life purpose coaching business. Amanda is trained in reiki, completed iPEC's coach training program and loves questioning the mysteries of the universe. When Amanda isn't working with clients or chasing her two little boys around, she loves to spend hours talking to her friends and family about signs, dreams and hopeless romantic things, traveling to far off places, reading 1,000 books all at the same time and dipping her toes in the ocean as much as possible (preferably in San Diego!) She's all about living her life with an open heart, and hopes she can inspire you to do the same. You can find her at and on Instagram. And just for Clarity on Fire listeners, Amanda is offering the first 10 people who 20% off (through the end of June, or until all spots are taken, whichever comes first) with code KRACHEL.
