The Unraveling Achiever

27. being you in all you do I tuned in and the topic that came through is: Being you in all you do. This episode is about why we dim ourselves, what's keeping us disconnected, and what opens up when we finally choose to be ourselves. --- Full Notes: I tuned in to receive the topic for this week's episode. And what came through is: Being you in all you do. Now, I want to be clear about some...

26. your next chapter won't write itself A listener asked: What lesson do I need to learn? Will my next chapter write itself? I tuned into their Akashic Records and pulled two cards to deliver a reading that's for them, but is also for all of us. What's clear is this: Your next chapter won't write itself. You write it. --- Full Notes: Today's episode is different. I posted on I...

25. stop forcing, start softening When you're a high achiever, pushing, forcing, and producing are prevalent. You've lost touch with intuition, receptivity, and flow. There's a harsh edge to how you're moving through the world. And underneath it, there's a part of you aching to soften. In this episode, I share three messages: let go of control and trust the unfolding, soften an...

24. when your career is built on proving yourself When your career is built on proving yourself, you're chasing external validation, addicted to achievement, and your worth is tied to your performance and productivity. You need the recognition, the praise, people to see how good you are. Because without that external validation, you're not sure you're enough. In this episode, I share t...

23. if you've been in a mood lately If you've been feeling impatient, easy to agitate, irritated, resentful, weighed down – this episode is for you. You've noticed an uptick in these feelings. It doesn't feel like you. You don't want to be this way, but you're having a hard time not being that way. In this episode, I share three messages: you're trying to do too much (t...

22. what to know about money Money is on a lot of our minds. It's tangled up with our work, our worth, our security. For some, it feels like never enough. For others, it slips too easily through their hands. In this episode, I share three practical messages: address the extremes you're living in (overindulgence or over-restriction – both block abundance), look up and around (you have more...

21. how to stay true to yourself For high achievers, staying true to yourself is one of the hardest things to do. You've spent so much time doing for others, doing for appearance, following prescribed paths, meeting expectations. Somewhere along the way, staying true to yourself got buried. It takes real intention to pause and ask: Is this actually me? In this episode, I share three messages:...

20. what you need to let go of If you want to move forward, you can't bring everything with you. You have to make space for what you want to come in. In this quick-moving season (spring, Aries energy), I'm sharing three messages about what you need to let go of to move forward in an aligned way: let go of the "shoulds" and the "I'll just do it myself" mentality, let...

19. the truth about purpose "I'm trying to find my purpose." I heard this at least three times last week. The truth is that you're not going to find your purpose "out there." Your purpose isn't something external you need to discover. It's not a career path, a job title, or a specific thing you're meant to do. Your purpose is something you're born with -...

18. between you and what you want What's between you and what you want? If you've built a great life but can't shake the feeling you want something different - and you feel guilty for wanting more - this episode is for you. Three messages came through about rest and downtime (step off the churning wheel), doing things other than your responsibilities (tap back into the whole person you...

17. the direction you're going The actions of today are building your future. Whether you feel like you're moving toward something you want, something you don't want, or you're not sure where you're going - there's always a direction. In this episode, I tune into the energy of the direction you're going and share three messages: build confidence that it will be okay (no...

16. the "I'll just do it myself" trap "I know how to do this, so I'll just do it." "I want to make sure it gets done right, so I'll do it myself." Sound familiar? This is hyper-independence - self-reliance to an unhealthy extent. In this episode, I tune into the energy of hyper-independence and share three messages: what independence actually means (doing...

15. believing in your dream You have a dream. Even if you can't see it clearly. Even if it feels like you're making it up. In this episode, I tune into the energy of your dream itself and ask: What does it need you to know? Three messages came through about why it feels like a dream (and why that's okay), how to create space to connect with it, and how to take it seriously without suff...

14. from hr to intuitive coaching: my story You've heard me guide others through their unraveling, but you might not know my story. How did I go from SVP of HR to intuitive career coach? In this episode, I share the full journey - the disconnection I felt, the simple exercise that changed everything, the slow build while staying employed, the self-awareness work that transformed me, and the in...

13. your idea wants to be born You have an idea. And it's stuck. You've been keeping it stuck. The business you've been "working on" for two years. The book you're "going to write." The career pivot you've been "getting ready for." In this episode, I tune into the energy of the idea itself - the one that's been sitting in your head, your notebo...

12. messages from your future self What if you could hear from the version of you who has already built the life you want? In this episode, I tune into a future version of you - someone who has built something successful that gives them stability, security, comfort, and the ability to enjoy life. I'm asking her what she wants you to know right now. What came through are three powerful messages...

11. when you're stuck in a decision There's a decision you're trying to make and you're feeling really stuck. You can see the pros and cons from every side. You've weighed it logically, practically - but still, it's weighing on you. When you keep approaching a decision logically and you still can't choose, it means your intuition is asking for space. In this episode, I...

10. stop chasing what isn't for you You're driven. You're capable. You're achieving. But are you chasing what YOU actually want? Or are you chasing what looks good, what's impressive, what's expected? High-achievers are really good at the chase - but we're not always good at pausing to ask: Do I actually want this? In this episode, I pull three tarot cards with messages...

9. what the Sunday scaries are trying to reveal The Sunday Scaries. That anxiety for Monday that creeps in on the weekend. I've been seeing this come up everywhere lately - commercials for sleep aids, online posts about weekend dread, people caught between needing rest and not being able to rest. At the root is usually some kind of misalignment - not necessarily with your role, but with your a...

8. navigating work and life with clarity How can you be more discerning in your actions? Less quick to react? How can you work with your emotions so they don't get in the way of your interactions or decisions? In this episode, I use tarot to explore the energy of the Queen of Swords and share three messages about navigating work and life with more clarity. Whether it's emotional reactivity...

7.​ messages for December This episode is a little different. I'm tuning into the month of December specifically and bringing forth the messages most needed for high-achievers right now. I pulled the Book of December 2025 for High Achievers from the Akashic Records - mid-month - as a reflection, recalibration, and pivot point. Five messages came through about simplicity, connection, being pres...

6. creating your aligned vision Having an aligned vision gives you something to work toward - so you can point your energy and actions toward what you truly want to build rather than defaulting or taking a back seat to the creation of your life. In this episode, Angela tunes into the energy of an aligned vision for the high-achiever and shares five intuitively received messages about creating a vi...

5. messages about rest that actually restores You know that feeling when you've had a full night's sleep but still wake up exhausted? When you take a day off but still feel depleted? Rest doesn't always restore. In this episode, I tune into the energy of restorative rest for the high-achiever and share three messages about the kind of rest that actually replenishes you - not just keeps...

4. messages to ease holiday anxiety The holidays are supposed to be joyful. So why do so many of us feel anxious instead? For some, it's the pressure to create the perfect holiday. For others, it's dreading family time. For me, it's the gifts - the coordinating, the planning, the mental load of it all. In this episode, I tune into the energy of holiday anxiety and share three messages...

3. when did you stop having fun? High-achievers are out there optimizing joy… out of their lives. We've made everything transactional - even fun has to count for something or it feels like a waste of time. In this episode, I tune into the energy of fun, joy, and play and share three messages about reconnecting with what makes you happy. If you've forgotten what you actually enjoy (or feel...
