Take the High Performer Stress Assessment → higheralignmentconsulting.scoreapp.com In this episode, I open up about my relationship with food, sugar, stress, and burnout in a way I never really have before. I share what life looked like when I was working long hours in the luxury auto industry, constantly living in fight or flight, skipping meals, eating on the go, relying on takeout, and using sugar as a coping mechanism. What I didn't understand at the time was that my body wasn't failing me. It

Take the High Performer Stress Assessment → higheralignmentconsulting.scoreapp.com In this episode, I share a recent experience where unexpected expenses triggered stress and scarcity, even though I was financially okay. I found myself overthinking, trying to control the situation, and creating pressure that did not need to exist. The real issue was not what was happening, but the state I was operating from.

Take the High Performer Stress Assessment → higheralignmentconsulting.scoreapp.com In this episode, I sat down with luxury matchmaker April Davis to unpack one of the biggest questions high-achieving women face in dating: what's the difference between healthy standards and plain old pickiness? We talked about how real standards are rooted in your values, not surface-level preferences, and how so many people unknowingly block love by chasing a fantasy instead of staying open to real connection

2026/03/12

In this episode of the Higher Alignment Podcast, I'm breaking down why change can feel so hard, especially for high performers who know what they "should" be doing but still can't seem to follow through. I unpack the difference between capability and capacity, and why so many resilient, driven people end up sabotaging themselves by expecting their body to perform at a level it simply cannot support right now. I also dive into the nervous system side of change and explain why you cannot think your

In this reintroduction episode, I share the story behind how I became a burnout and nervous system coach for high performers. After returning to Vietnam for the first time since I was 12 or 13, I felt called to reconnect with my roots and explain how my upbringing shaped my drive, resilience, and survival-mode wiring. I talk about my parents' journey from Vietnam to Canada, what it meant to grow up in a hardworking immigrant household, and how performance became my identity through competitive dance

2026/02/12

In this episode, I get really raw about relationships and why they are one of the biggest sources of stress, burnout, and growth in our lives. While I am not a relationship coach, I have learned through my own experiences that the quality of our relationships is directly tied to our ability to navigate conflict and sit in discomfort. I share personal reflections on how high performers often avoid emotional pain by problem-solving, staying busy, or positively bypassing difficult moments. I talk

Why You're Afraid to Change (Even When You're Ready)...

The Higher Alignment Podcast ·

2026/02/05

In this episode, I break down why change can feel so terrifying, even when it is something we deeply want. Using a real client example, I explain how fear is not about logic or readiness, but about the nervous system being stuck in survival mode. When we are dysregulated, the body prioritizes familiarity over growth, even if that familiarity is unhealthy or unfulfilling. This is why big decisions like career changes, relationships, or choosing a more balanced life can feel paralyzing. I share how

The Higher Alignment Podcast ·

2026/01/29

In this episode, I talk about the false sense of optimism that often shows up in January. A new year can feel motivating, but if your patterns and behaviors don't change, neither will your results. I break down how high-functioning burnout often goes unnoticed, why short breaks don't equal recovery, and what it actually takes to create lasting change. This is a reminder that real shifts come from pattern interrupts, simplification, and intentional choices — not the calendar flipping.

Brittany shares what life looked like coming back from maternity leave into a fast-paced corporate banking role while recovering from thyroid surgery, carrying the emotional load at home, and living in constant go-go-go mode. We talk about how high performers often guilt themselves into "just being grateful," even when they're running on fumes, and

Before You Set Your 2026 Goals, Listen to This | EP 67

2026/01/15

In this episode, I'm breaking down why most goals don't stick and it has nothing to do with discipline, motivation, or willpower. What I've seen again and again in my work is that we often chase external outcomes, thinking they'll make us feel a certain way, when what we're actually craving is an internal state. I walk you through the eight core areas of life I use with my clients and show you how to identify both the external goal and the internal feeling attached to it. From there, I explain how

In this episode of the Higher Alignment Podcast, I'm joined by Meaghan Alton for our annual numerology forecast, this time to break down what 2026 holds and how to use it intentionally. We reflect on 2025's "nine year" energy as a cycle of endings, release, and pattern-breaking, and why that can actually become the best year of your life when your nervous system has the capacity to welcome change. Meaghan explains why 2026 is a "one year," meaning it's a fresh start and the beginning of a new

Using December as your "report card," I break down why you ended the year either grounded and present or overwhelmed and crawling toward the finish line.

In this episode, I break down one of the most common stories I hear from high achievers in burnout: "I feel like a bad friend." You're canceling plans, avoiding connection, dreading social commitments, and disconnecting from the people you love and instead of understanding what's happening in your body, you start judging yourself for it. I explain why this has nothing to do with your character and everything to do with capacity, nervous system dysregulation, and the performance-based validation many

Together, we unpack the quiet signs of burnout, the urge to control everything, and the moment tiny shifts (like finally making the bed again) showed her nervous system was healing.
