Episode Description
When was the last time you rewrote an email six times before hitting send?
Or spiraled through a decision long after it needed to be made?
If you've ever been told "you're overthinking it," you're not alone — and you're not failing.
Overthinking at work is often the result of high pressure, perfectionism, and internalized leadership expectations — especially for high-achieving women in male-dominated spaces.
But here's the truth: overthinking isn't helping you get promoted. It's quietly chipping away at your executive presence and leadership impact.
In this episode, I'll walk you through:
✅ How to spot overthinking in real time (vs. strategic thinking)
✅ Why smart women overthink — and how to shift that pattern
✅ The 1-1-1 decision tool to stop spiraling and act with clarity
✅ Executive mindset techniques to build trust in your own decisions
✅ Real stories from my clients who shifted from "perfection mode" to promotion
This is your leadership reset — a tactical, mindset-rich episode to help you step into Q4 with calm, confident clarity.
If you're ready to build a reputation for decisive, strategic leadership — let's dive in.
