Burned and Better™

Today I’m sitting down with Maggie Hilpisch, a human design guide who blends spiritual wisdom with real-world change. We explore what it means to trust your inner authority, especially after burnout, overgiving, and years of pushing through life on sheer willpower. I share my own initial skepticism in learning about human design, the resistance I carried, and the surprising permission slip that cr...

Today’s guest is my better half, Tristan Weber. We’ve been married for 22 years, which is longer than we spent solo before that. For the past few years, we’ve made it a point to take an anniversary trip together. We design this trip to facilitate a reflection on our previous year and time to build a vision together for the next. This past year, we also brought in a human design expert to do a coup...

I just came back from an intimate group gathering at Ed Mylett’s house, so today I’m letting you in on what this amazing experience was like. This event brought people together for so many different reasons, but we all walked out feeling a significant shift in our lives and businesses. Through discussions about mindset, visualization, and faith, I had so many takeaways from this day that I hope wi...

I recently attended Codie Sanchez’s event, Main Street Over Wall Street 2025, and my mind is still racing from the experience. We heard from so many amazing speakers over just a couple of days. I plugged in, got to know a few people, and I’m so glad that I invested in this event. I had so many takeaways, and in this episode I’m letting you in on the biggest ones. In this episode we’ll explore… Wha...

Stepping away from the daily grind can really open your eyes to new possibilities. I recently attended an Expanders Retreat (hosted by Dr. Stephanie Wigner) with my husband Tristan. It provided a fantastic blend of learning and leisure, offering a refreshing break from the hustle and bustle of daily life. Surrounded by creative and inspiring entrepreneurs, I found myself exploring new possibilitie...

We’re always told to wait on the Lord, but let’s be honest: waiting isn’t always easy. Recently, after I was gifted a book on this subject, my perspective shifted, as you’ll hear in this episode. Waiting isn’t a passive process (like I once believed), but an active one. To wait is to expect; to know and trust something is coming without doubt. It can take time to train your brain towards this pers...

Our community has been going through some intense struggles recently. I’m reflecting on one of these today, specifically through the lens of protecting ourselves against unhelpful voices—including the voice we all have inside. It’s so important for us to guard our minds and hearts, as well as to remember what God says about us, because that’s what really matters. Be selective about the messages yo...

There have been some absolutely crazy things that have earned their way on paper (as in, I’ve had to explicitly state them in employee agreements, terms of care, etc) in my practice. In this episode, I’m sharing what they are and the shocking stories behind how they earned their spot on paper. I’m also revealing real-life examples that led to me having to outline specific expectations that you mig...

Today our guest is entrepreneur, business coach, podcast host, chiropractor, and sought-after speaker Dr. Lauryn Brunclik. In 2010, she founded Blue Hills Chiropractic, but after years of hustle, she craved more freedom. This led her down the path of learning how to reclaim her time without sacrificing income. Now, she helps other professionals do the same so they can build financial and life free...

Today I’m sharing a story that changed the way I lead. Leaders, especially those in the healing arts and healthcare space, tend to be givers. There was a time when I gave from an unhealthy place, and eventually I learned this lesson the hard way. I’ve since taught myself to set boundaries that allowed me to give gifts from a healthier and more productive place. In this episode we’ll explore… The h...

We’re joined by Dr. Stephanie Wigner today, who is a multi-passionate entrepreneur, investor, and mentor who created a seven-figure empire by scaling her brick-and-mortar clinics.

This episode is a continuation of my conversation with Dr. Elise Rigney. Last time, we talked about female competitiveness and how I moved past it to reach out to her for help. In this part 2, we’re talking about the many ways you can show integrity as a leader, including taking accountability for your team and company culture, practicing what you preach about health to your patients, and creating...

Launching this podcast has been an incredible experience so far. Starting a podcast was not on my radar, but in this episode, I’m sharing what inspired me to take the leap into podcasting. I once thought my mistakes as a leader made me a not-so-great candidate for podcasting, until I realized it actually qualified me to be one. We need more leaders talking about their mistakes and pivotal moments....

I’m discussing what happens when the leadership pendulum swings; when you go from no leadership at all to complete micromanagement. I’ve been through this myself. I went from being an absent leader to going scorched earth and fully micromanaging my team. I have experienced what happens when you lead from wounds instead of wisdom, and I can also tell you how I found a more balanced place to lead fr...

Welcome to the Burned and Better podcast. In the first episode, I’m sharing what happened when I lost my entire team (assistants, a doctor, and a nanny) when they resigned within weeks of each other. I’ll tell you all about the type of leader I was before they left, what I learned from the experience, and how I’ve evolved as a leader since.   In this episode we’ll explore… How most leaders have a...
