You can want an extraordinary career and an extraordinary life.

Picture this:

You get an email at night, think "I'll handle that tomorrow," and then actually don't think about it again. (And it was totally fine to wait)
You take the vacation and you're not secretly working from the pool. (I know I'm not alone)
Someone brings you a problem and you don't immediately make it yours.
You have things on your calendar that matter to you, and you don't move them every time work asks for the space.

And you're still ambitious. Still making money. Still doing excellent work. You just have more of yourself left when the workday is over.

That's what I want more women to see is possible.

New episode out today!

I made a quiz for the high achievers.

Seven questions. About three minutes. You score it yourself, because of course you do.

Four types: the Always-On, the Yes-First, the Do-It-Myself, and the Prove-It.

No wrong answers, and no grade. There is extra credit, though. 😉

And I already know some of you are going to retake it to get a better result. Good luck with that. 😂

Take it, then tell me your type.

You’re good at handling everything.

But does that mean everything is yours to handle? 👀

Being the first to jump in.
Fixing things before anyone asks.
Saying yes because “it’s just easier if I do it.”
Then thinking about work long after the workday ends.

That can look like high performance. And in sales—especially medical device—it often gets rewarded.

But being great at your job and making yourself responsible for everything are two different things.

You can care about your results, support your team, and be ambitious without being everyone’s backup plan.

In episode 399 of It’s Your Time, I’m talking about high performance vs. overfunctioning—and how to recognize when doing more has become your default.

"Right now isn't a good time."

Kelly Killen says that's the sentence she hears most from the women she coaches. And I recognized myself in it right away.

Kelly is a board certified behavior analyst and wellness coach. She works with capable, disciplined women who put their work, their clients and their families first, and their own health somewhere near the bottom of the list.

Her observation is that most of us don't have a knowledge problem. We know what to do. We're waiting for a window where it will be easier. After the busy season. After the project wraps.

The window rarely comes. Kelly's point is that change happens in the middle of real life: while you're traveling, hosting, or running at full speed. And doing 30 or 40% of the plan is better than doing zero while you wait for the perfect time.

This applies well beyond health. It's how a lot of us handle the career move, the conversation, the boundary we keep postponing.

Check out my conversations with Kelly in Episode 403 of It's Your Time, including hormones, self-advocacy, and the First Annual KK Wellness Consulting Women's Wellness Conference she's hosting in Palm Beach this November.

What's one thing you've been waiting for the "right time" to start? 🤔

Your title is not your identity.

Your title is not proof of your worth.

And leadership? That was never about the title either.

Leadership is influence.

It’s how you show up.
What you model.
The conversations you’re willing to have.
The way people feel and think differently because you were in the room.

Titles change. Roles change. Careers change.

Who you are goes with you.

That’s the work we’re doing inside Performance Rewritten™ — separating your success from your worth, so you can lead from who you are instead of constantly proving what you can do.

There's a moment in this episode that gave me chills.

Katie's son Jackson asked her: "Mom, why did you leave? You never complained. You loved it so much."

And she said: "You're right. But people loved what I was building more than I could possibly love where I was."

How many of us are waiting for something to go wrong before we give ourselves permission to go after something more? We think we need the burning platform. The bad boss. The terrible quarter. The reason.

Katie didn't wait for that. She built in the margins, proved it could work, and made the move from a place of vision — not desperation.

Her mom Muriel, who won the region's top chowder competition three years in a row until they retired her recipe, would be so proud.
The ripple effect of how we live our lives is real, friends.

Your personal brand isn’t built by working harder.

It’s built by knowing what you stand for, advocating for yourself, and letting people see the value you already bring.

You don’t need to be the one doing the most to be the one making an impact.

That’s a big part of what we’re rewriting inside Performance Rewritten™ — success without all the proving.

Ready for a different way? Performance Rewritten™ is open now. ✨

What if the best thing you could do for your career right now wasn't work harder — but think differently about what's possible?

Kelly Hiller, CMO at Purdue University, has spent 22 years at the same institution. Not because she ran out of ambition — but because she kept reimagining what the next chapter could look like and kept saying yes to it.

She led the alumni association. She led the 150th anniversary on a fixed-term contract that was supposed to end with her role. She came back to central marketing when the whole operation was being rebuilt from scratch. And each time, she asked: what could I contribute here that hasn't been done yet?

We talk about all of it in Episode 401 of It's Your Time — including the Taylor Swift STEM activation her team created that welcomed 10,000 people into an Indianapolis mall for free, what personal branding really means when you build it on core values instead of a polished image, how to lead people who used to be your peers, and the "make them jealous" approach she's using to get her team genuinely excited about AI.

But the thread running through the whole conversation is the one I keep thinking about: reimagining what's possible is not a one-time decision. It's something you choose to do over and over — in small moments and big ones — throughout the whole arc of a career.

I started this podcast from a closet. Literally — Marc's closet. With a completely different name and a completely different mission.

The early episodes were about why high-achieving women were reaching for w**e at the end of the night. I thought I was talking about the w**e. What I was actually uncovering was the exhaustion underneath it. The going and going and going all day with nowhere to finally land.

I knew that woman well — because I was her.

Four hundred episodes later, I'm recording from Florida. I've left a 20-year career in my best financial year. And I'm launching something I could not have pictured when I pressed record the first time.

But here's the thing I want you to hear: the external life only changed because the internal work happened first. That's the whole story.
