Gen X Career Reinvention: Quiet Grief, Identity Shifts & Practical Next Steps with Shelley McIntyre

Sunday Oct 12, 2025

Sunday Oct 12, 2025

On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Aanya sits down with Shelley McIntyre, reinvention partner for Gen X professionals and creator of Burn the Map, to unpack the often unseen emotional cost of leaving a long-held role. Shelley names career transition as a form of quiet grief—a loss of identity, status, routine, and social anchors—and offers a clear, practical path forward grounded in Self-Determination Theory (competence, autonomy, connection). We talk corporate disillusionment, whether reinvention must happen outside the system, how to avoid “productivity panic” after an exit, and the risk of spiritual atrophy when you’ve outgrown a role. If you’re mid-career, burned out, or just questioning the ladder you’re climbing, this conversation gives you a direct framework to stabilize first and then move with intent.

 

About the Guest  :

Shelley McIntyre is a certified coach and the creator of Burn the Map, guiding Gen X professionals to release outdated roles and design work and lives aligned with clarity, creativity, and purpose.

 

Key Takeaways:

  • Name the loss: Career transition can mirror grief—loss of identity, status, routine, and community. Allow space before leaping.

  • Stabilize your “CAC” triangle: Build Competence, Autonomy, and Connection outside the job (learn a skill, make real choices, invest in friendships).

  • Don’t rush into “productivity panic”: Immediate job-searching without clarity often recreates the same misfit elsewhere.

  • Do a skills inventory: List what you’re great at—and which skills you never want to sell again. Stop leading with the latter.

  • Network for weak ties: Warm, lightweight connections often outperform mass applications in a tight market.

  • Reinvention can be internal: “Quiet quitting” only works if life outside work meets your psychological needs and performance remains solid.

  • Watch for spiritual atrophy: When your identity outgrows your title, ignoring the creative self breeds bitterness that spills into relationships.

  • Create a soft landing: Start CAC habits and relationships before you exit; don’t assume work friends will remain your primary support.

  • See the system clearly: Corporate structures optimize for the business; design your path with that reality in mind.

  • Small tweaks vs. a new path: Tweaks help—until they don’t. Have a plan for a bigger move when the inner signal is unmistakable.

Transforming the Inner Narrative: How Healing Self-Talk Drives Real Leadership Change — Mayor Teresa Thomas-Smith

Sunday Oct 12, 2025

Sunday Oct 12, 2025

On this Healthy Mind, Healthy Life episode, Mayor Teresa Thomas-Smith shares a direct, practical lens on leadership: your inner voice sets the ceiling for your strategy, culture, and impact. We dig into stripping away the “best self” mask, why vulnerability is a leadership asset (not a weakness), and simple practices to rewrite self-talk so results shift—at work and at home. Expect grounded examples, a real story of reframing under pressure, and clear steps to build an authentic, values-led leadership presence. Search-friendly themes: leadership mindset, authentic leadership, inner narrative, self-talk, mental fitness for leaders, emotional resilience, boundaries, trauma-informed growth.

 

About the Guest  :

Teresa Thomas-Smith is the first African American and first female Mayor of Palmetto, Georgia. A global speaker and transformational strategist, she champions “lead her ship”—leading from essence, not titles—through radical authenticity, compassion, and practical inner work.

 

Key Takeaways:

  • Authenticity is whole-self leadership: stop performing a “best self” and lead as a full human so others feel safe to do the same.

  • Self-talk is the foundation: strategy and skills are only as strong as the inner voice driving them.

  • Name the ego, don’t obey it: acknowledge the loud, critical voice and consciously choose the truer one.

  • Give yourself grace: change happens “right now,” one choice at a time—especially when you feel stuck.

  • Write your story: put the desired outcome on paper; clarity + intention reduce fear and organize action.

  • Release what no longer serves: notice old vows, roles, or narratives and consciously let them go.

  • Your energy leads the room: remembered essence creates lightness, connection, and trust in teams.

  • Practical starter: when negative self-talk spikes, pause, name it, thank it for trying to protect you, and release it; then speak a truer sentence aloud.

Success Is a VIBE: How Vision, Intention, Belief, and Execution Rewrote a Life with E.A. Johnson

Saturday Oct 11, 2025

Saturday Oct 11, 2025

On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, Avik speaks with E.A. Johnson—award-winning sales professional and speaker—about rebuilding from anxiety, insomnia, and pain-pill addiction without rehab. Johnson breaks down his VIBE framework—Vision, Intention, Belief, Execution—and how mindfulness (on his terms, out in nature) helped stabilize his nervous system and clarify purpose. This direct, practical conversation challenges “mindset alone” clichés while showing how vision plus disciplined action creates measurable outcomes in career, health, and family. If you want grounded steps to reset your trajectory, this episode gives you a clear playbook you can start today.

 

About the guest  :

E.A. Johnson is a sales award-winner, motivational speaker, husband, and father. His story moves from early trauma and substance dependence to sustained recovery, career excellence, and service. He teaches a simple, operational system—VIBE—that pairs inner work with real-world execution.

 

Key takeaways :

  • VIBE is a system, not a slogan: Define a specific Vision, write dated Intentions, anchor Belief for hard days, and Execute even when it’s uncomfortable.

  • Vision first: Without a destination, you loop in circles. A clear vision simplifies choices and boundaries.

  • Exposure builds belief: Put yourself physically near the outcomes you want (people, places, roles) to make them feel possible.

  • Intentions must be on a calendar: Plans live in writing with dates, times, and micro-actions you can measure.

  • Mindfulness can be mobile: If traditional meditation isn’t working, practice awareness in nature, on walks, or during quiet drives.

  • Language matters: Shift identity talk from “I am broken” to “I experienced X” to avoid fusing with trauma.

  • Faith and supports help: Therapy and a higher-power belief can sustain change when motivation dips.

Execution loops back to vision: When fatigue or doubt hits, revisit the why, then act.

Mindful Living, Vegan Wisdom, and Everyday Spirituality with Dr. Will Tuttle & Dr. Crystal T. Harrell

Saturday Oct 11, 2025

Saturday Oct 11, 2025

A grounded conversation on practical mindfulness, plant-based living, and the inner work that sustains holistic health. Dr. Will Tuttle—author of The World Peace Diet and former Zen monk—connects compassion, food choices, and creative practice to personal and planetary well-being. Dr. Crystal T. Harrell—resilience expert and Yale-trained public health scholar—traces her path from early loss and anxiety to mindful embodiment through walking meditation, presence, and self-knowledge. We keep it pragmatic: how to make consciousness visible in daily routines (even dishwashing), why “inner authority” matters more than external voices, and what one principle can reset your health today.

 

About the Guests:  

Dr. Will Tuttle — Visionary pianist, former Zen monk, and bestselling author of The World Peace Diet. Five decades teaching compassion, vegan ethics, and creative spirituality.

Dr. Crystal T. Harrell — #1 bestselling author, resilience expert, and PhD in Public Health (Yale). Advocates mindfulness-based stress reduction, self-discovery, and accessible, embodied practices.

 

Key Takeaways:

  • Mindfulness is the lever: bring awareness to food, thoughts, speech, purchases, and relationships to reduce harm and increase health.

  • Plant-based living is framed as compassion in action—benefiting animals, ecosystems, and often human health—while challenging waste in industrial food systems.

  • Meditation is not only seated stillness; walking, washing dishes, and careful movement can all be effective mindfulness practices.

  • “Inner authority” beats outside noise: cultivate discernment through consistent practice rather than outsourcing well-being to trends.

  • Creativity (music, writing) can be a contemplative path that integrates purpose with daily life.

  • Trauma-informed mindfulness matters: gentle practices (e.g., walking without devices, sensory noticing) help re-inhabit the body.

  • Self-knowledge is non-negotiable; choose practices that align with you (journaling, movement, silence) and do them with intention.

  • Love is experiential: feeling loved grows as we practice being loving—even toward simple tasks and objects—training attention toward gratitude.

  • One-principle reset: practice mindful attention today (to your meal, breath, or next conversation) and let every action radiate fewer harmful ripples.

  • Holistic health is a way of being, not a checklist; it’s how we relate to self, others, nature, and the unseen.

Health & the Sober-Curious Shift with Michelle Houston (To Be Honest Bev)

Saturday Oct 11, 2025

Saturday Oct 11, 2025

On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty digs into the choice to stop drinking—not from pressure, but from self-awareness, mental health, and intentional living. Founder Michelle Houston of To Be Honest Beverage Company breaks down the sober-curious movement, social dynamics of not drinking, and why flavor + function (including CBD, 0% THC) are redefining adult beverages. We cover anxiety, habit design, navigating pushback, and building a sophisticated alcohol-free ritual that doesn’t sacrifice connection—or sleep.

About the guest  :

Michelle Houston is the founder of To Be Honest Beverage Company, a U.S.-based brand creating mindful, non-alcoholic functional spirits designed for sophisticated, cocktail-like experiences—without alcohol or THC. Her personal pause from alcohol to manage anxiety led to a purpose-driven product line focused on taste, calm, and presence.

 

Key takeaways:

  • The real turning point: Anxiety and low-level depression exposed how alcohol was borrowing from tomorrow—hurting sleep, energy, and focus.

  • Mindset shift: Don’t make it about deprivation; add in enjoyable alcohol-free rituals to replace default drinking.

  • Culture is changing: Not drinking is now a spectrum (Dry January, drink less, or 0%)—choose what fits your season.

  • Social navigation: Lead with a simple, confident “I’m not drinking tonight.” You don’t owe explanations; sharing your “why” can open real dialogue.

  • Flavor + function win: Adults want taste and a subtle benefit; TBH uses CBD with 0% THC to support calm without intoxication.

  • Design the environment: Align friends, home setup, and work habits to support your intention; remove default triggers.

  • No hard ultimatums: Avoid rigid timelines (“never again”/“30 days or bust”); instead, practice mindful choice every time.

  • Unexpected gift:Time—no more lost mornings, compromised workouts, or decision fatigue from hangovers.

Career Transitions That Protect Your Mental Health: Keys to Fulfillment, Courageous Manager Conversations, and Job-Search Mindset with Michelle Schafer

Saturday Oct 11, 2025

Saturday Oct 11, 2025

On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with Michelle Schafer—a two-time restructuring survivor and career coach—to break down a practical playbook for navigating career transitions without burning out. We cover Michelle’s three keys to career fulfillment (work that gives you energy, aligned company values, and non-negotiables), how to initiate effective career-development talks with your manager (even if support feels low), and realistic strategies to stabilize your mindset in a tough job market. If you’re facing layoffs, quiet quitting, or decision fatigue, this episode gives you actionable, mental-health-aware steps you can use today.

 

About the guest  :

Michelle Schafer is a career coach with 25+ years across HR, L&D, and community engagement. A two-time restructuring survivor, she’s coached nearly 1,000 professionals to pivot into work they actually want, and she’s the author of the upcoming Cultivating Career Growth: Navigating Transitions with Purpose (Feb 2025).

 

Key takeaways:

  • The 3 keys to fulfillment: prioritize work that energizes you, company values that match yours (as demonstrated, not just stated), and personal non-negotiables like location flexibility.

  • Energy is data: consistent end-of-day exhaustion signals misalignment—use it as an early warning to course-correct rather than push harder.

  • Values in practice: assess how an organization shows its values with employees, customers, and partners; misalignment drives tension and disengagement.

  • Own your growth: don’t wait for annual reviews—book a 30-minute, stand-alone career conversation with an agenda (what you love, what drains you, where you want to grow, the support you need).

  • When leadership isn’t supportive:network internally (coffee chats, org charts, warm intros) and treat resistance as a values signal that it may be time to transition.

  • Quiet quitting/quiet cracking: disengagement is a red flag for both employee and organization; psychologically safe dialogue can re-engage—or confirm it’s time to move.

  • Mindset in hard markets: job loss impacts mental health; separate hope from “toxic positivity.” Pair supportive self-talk with action (80% networking, 20% applying).

  • The “Something Plan”: when stuck, do five minutes of something (walk, sunlight, read) to rebuild momentum.

  • Take short, intentional breaks from the search and commit to a restart date to avoid losing traction.
