Recovering overachiever? (Me too, friend.)

This episode is for you.


In today's episode, we speak to Sara Powell. Sara is the founder of Impactury, a company that provides career fulfillment coaching for women executives, who are seeking more purpose and less stress at work. Prior to Impactury, she worked in consulting (Accenture), serving mission-based organizations globally, and co-founded a clean water social enterprise. Over the past 6 years, she has guest lectured executive MBAs at IE University in Spain. Sara has a bachelor in industrial engineering from the US, an MBA from IE Business School in Spain, and is a certified mindset coach.


We talk about:


  • Going from 'shiny office' consulting in the US to wanting to start social enterprises
  • Listening to that voice inside your head when it says you are meant to do something different
  • Being a recovering overachiever, and how doing all the things can lead to burnout and health repercussions
  • Living in Spain and India as an American, and why travelling to different parts of the world can be so powerful to bring perspective
  • Sara's favourite Michael Jordan quote.
