90 | From Floor to Freedom: How Rachael Reclaimed Her Life After Collapse
What happens when mindset strategies are no longer enough and the body forces a full stop?
In this compelling episode of The Executive Exhale Podcast, leadership psychology expert and health coach, Rachael Edmondson-Clarke shares the moment she collapsed in her office and how that experience changed everything. With over two decades of experience supporting senior leaders and Fortune 500 companies, Rachael brings powerful insights into sustainable high performance, burnout recovery, and the courage required to realign with purpose.
This conversation explores the warning signs many leaders ignore, the limits of mental toughness, and the role of nature, nourishment, and nervous system regulation in healing. Rachael and I unpack what it takes to shift from over-functioning to grounded leadership, and how to find clarity when the path ahead is still unclear.
Listeners will learn:
- Why powering through can become a dangerous cycle
- How to recognize the physical signs of burnout
- What it means to rewire identity after collapse
- The importance of nature, rest, and somatic practices in recovery
- How to take the first step when only one stepping stone is visible
This episode is for anyone navigating exhaustion, uncertainty, or the early stages of a career or life reinvention. It offers both inspiration and practical tools to help leaders reconnect with what truly matters.
