SW 4 | Escape Burnout + World Record Holder Squash Falconer

/

Burnout Isn’t a Weakness. It’s a Misalignment

Your Spark Isn’t Gone. It’s Buried. Let’s Bring It Back.

In Part 1 I’m serving up your Burnout Escape Protocol. The exact 4-step method I use with my private clients — women who are leading, performing and achieving at a high level, but who are tired of running on adrenaline, caffeine, self-doubt, and to-do lists that never end.

Burnout doesn’t always look like lying on the floor crying (though sometimes it does).

More often, it’s showing up as the leader, the athlete, the high-performer, hitting goals, making moves, all while secretly feeling drained, foggy, and like success is costing you more than it gives.

You’re “doing everything right” — the habits, the routines, the mindset hacks.

So why does it still feel… off? Let’s find out in today’s episode ;)

In Part 2, my guest is none other than the fabulous badass Squash Falconer! Everest summiteer, world record holder, adventurer, speaker, and full-blown force of nature.

We talk about what it really takes to live life on your own terms, the joy in the grind, and how to follow your soul to become who you’re meant to be.

This episode is for you if:

  • You're tired of feeling tired, and are wondering, is this it?

  • You know you're made for more, but can't access it through the usual hustle

  • You want clarity, power, joy and career growth without sacrificing your soul and sanity

  • You need real tools, not another self-care Sunday

  • You want real inspiration — not fluff or click bait — from someone who’s actually walked the wild path. Who’s followed their soul, faced life’s curveballs head-on, and built success unapologetically, on their terms.

We go deep into what burnout really is (hint: not just overwork), why surface-level fixes don’t cut it anymore, and how to reset with radical clarity and energy that actually sustains you.

You don’t need fixing.
You need realignment.
Let’s make your success feel as wild and good as it looks.

Stay Wild,

Masterclass | The 4-Step Burnout Escape Protocol

This isn’t about slowing down your ambition. It’s about reclaiming the energy and clarity to go bigger, without burning out in the process.

Here’s a taste of what I walk you through:

🔥 Step 1: Lock in Your Power Moves
Define your 3–8 non-negotiables. The skills, habits and strategies that actually move the needle for your career growth.

🔥 Step 2: Precision Performance Analysis
Rate your current state. What’s working? What’s draining you silently behind the scenes?

🔥 Step 3: Time Allocation Check
Burnout is often not from doing too much, but doing too much of the wrong things. We check where your energy’s leaking.

🔥 Step 4: Clarity Checkpoint
What’s your next level? And what do you need to cut, shift, and commit to in order to rise into it with confidence?

This episode is a field note for the woman who:

  • Has climbed the ladder and still feels unfulfilled

  • Is quietly questioning if she’s “lost her spark”

  • Is ready to build a life and career that feels as good as it looks

  • Craves clarity, energy, and impact, without self-sacrifice

Whether you’re listening on a hot girl walk, a summer hike, or from your car between meetings, this one’s designed to light a fire in your gut and remind you who the hell you are.

Wild Episode: Lost in the Wild, Loneliness, & Meltdowns

/

This week’s Wild Episode takes us deep into the Norwegian mountains, and even deeper into the messy beauty of being human.

What starts as a dreamy coffee-fueled hike turns into a soul-cracking solo meltdown, a surprising twist of divine timing, and a hard-hitting realization about loneliness, and friendships.

Here’s what’s packed into today’s bonus episode:

🌿 What “following your wild” really means, influenced by a DNT cabin and a glacier trail that took an unexpected emotional turn.

🌿Mountain Meltdown, navigating isolation, the longing for deep connections, and the exhaustion of always adventuring alone. And a reminder: the divine is always listening.

🌿 Why accepting our feelings (even the ugly ones) is the real power move

🌿 Listener Q&A #1: “Have I lost my empathy?” – unpacking emotional detachment, nervous system fatigue, and how to lead with boundaries and heart.

🌿 Listener Q&A #2: “Why do I keep burning out, even though I’ve tried everything?” – why surface-level fixes don’t work, and what’s really keeping you stuck.

🌿Listener Q&A #3:  “What if slowing down means I fall behind?” –we unpack the real fear behind the question, and flip the script: how to ask a more powerful question that doesn't shrink you, but unlocks the breakthrough you're actually craving.

For anyone who’s ever felt alone in their wilderness, or like the universe just isn’t listening—this episode is for you.

Staying Wild Episode 3 | Becoming Unapologetically You + Ex-England Rugby Player Shaunagh Brown

/

This episode is your Good Girl Exit Plan. A strategic guide to becoming unapologetically you, reclaiming your power, and living life on your own terms.

Part 1 is a deep dive into the mindset shift required to ditch the "nice girl" conditioning, stop people-pleasing, and step into who you truly are, unapologetically.

If you've been achieving on paper but burning out behind the scenes or wanting to get off the hamster wheel, this one’s your call to burn the rulebook and build a life that actually fits. We’re not here to shrink, we’re here to take up space.

Part 2 brings in the firepower: a fierce conversation with Shaunagh Brown, ex-England rugby player, changemaker, and unapologetic force of nature. At the age of 25, Shaunagh thought, “Let’s have a go at rugby.”, and 2 years later she was representing England. Shaunagh shares how she carved her own path by backing herself, embracing fear, and following her passion.

This one’s for the wild women, the quiet rebels, and anyone ready to play a bolder game.

Let's get unapologetically wild :)

Masterclass | Good Girl Exit Plan: How to Be Unapologetically You

If you’ve ever found yourself holding your breath in a boardroom, saying yes when you wanted to say hell no, or downplaying your brilliance so you wouldn’t be “too much”… this masterclass is for you.

This week, we tackled the Good Girl Mask and how to break free of it–for good. Because it’s not just harmless politeness… it’s a performance that’s costing you your power, your peace, and your potential.

What is Good Girl Conditioning?

It’s the invisible rulebook telling women to be:

  • Polite over powerful

  • Nice over honest

  • Smiling while shrinking

It shows up in ways we’ve normalized: over-apologizing, people-pleasing, emotional suppression, avoiding visibility, seeking permission, and never saying no—even when you're at capacity.

It’s often why ambitious women end up burnt out, undervalued, and second-guessing themselves… all while appearing “successful.”

The Cost of the Mask

This conditioning hits hard across:

  1. Decision-Making: You say yes to everything, avoid delegation, and lose clarity on your real strengths.

  2. Leadership Presence: You downplay your opinions to avoid being “difficult,” and behave in a certain way to be seen as ‘nice’ to work with – not impactful, or powerful.

  3. Nervous System Patterns: If you grew up walking on eggshells, you might still be doing it at work, just in heels.

What protected you in the past is now preventing your growth. But here’s the good news: you get to choose who you become next.

The Shift: From Shrinking to Standing In Your Power

We revisited the Triangle of Transformation from Masterclass 1, mapping out how your beliefs, thoughts, and energy shape your identity, and therefore your reality (and results).

The current you might be living in fear, resistance, or hyper-responsibility.
But your unapologetic self? She’s clear. She’s calm. She’s powerful.

Start there:
✨ Who is she?
✨ How does she think, speak, lead, move?
✨ What energy does she bring into a room?
✨ How does she respond to fear, triggers, or resistance?

Even a 1% micro-shift a day creates exponential change. That’s not just theory. It’s math: 1% better daily = 3,778% improvement in a year. Wild, right?

Fear, Resistance & Rewiring

Fear will try to keep you small. But you can meet resistance with curiosity, not self-judgment. Use tools like the 5 Whys to get to the root of your fear, and have a plan in place for when it inevitably shows up.

Because the more you honour your knowing and act from your power, the more everything around you starts to shift. Your career. Your confidence. Your relationships. Your results.

Your Wild Invitation

It’s time to retire the role of “the good girl” and rise as the leader you were born to be.

Not polite. Not palatable. Not perfect. Unapologetic. Unstoppable. Unleashed.

Now tell me, who are you without the mask?

Key Episode Takeaways:

  • Why “being nice” is often a trauma response, not a leadership style or way to live your life on your terms

  • How to stop outsourcing your confidence

  • What it really takes to back yourself (even when you’re the underdog)

  • Why chasing perfection is safer than owning your power—and how to flip that

  • Shaunagh’s journey from athletics to elite sport, and the self-belief it required

  • The role of identity, fear, and tiny brave steps in building unstoppable momentum

  • Incremental growth > instant mastery

  • Fear is a compass, not a stop sign

  • You don’t need to be “ready”—you need to decide

  • Knowing your strengths is good. Owning them is game-changing

  • If you won’t back yourself, why should anyone else?

Wild (Bonus): The Raw, Real, and Slightly Unhinged One

/

Welcome to the very first Wild Episode! This is the slightly chaotic, completely unfiltered corner of the Staying Wild Podcast.

Wolfie (my husky and reluctant co-host) is here, shedding fur and throwing side-eye, as always, while we dive into what it really means to stay wild in a high-achieving, hustle-obsessed world.

In this episode, I break down:

  • How I stayed Wild this week

  • The art of following your wild (even if it makes zero sense on paper).

  • My favourite segment, Unhinged Moments

  • Listener Dilemmas Answered Off-the-Cuff:

  • → How can I keep performing at a high level without burning out?

  • → What if I’ve outgrown my current path... but have no idea what’s next?

  • → How do I stop being “the strong one” for everyone else and finally prioritise me?

Staying Wild Episode 2 | Who Are You Without the Hustle? + Prof Skier Madison Rose

/

Welcome to the Staying Wild podcast!

We’re kicking off with a powerful masterclass: Who Are You Without The Hustle? A bold unpacking of burnout, identity, and the propaganda we're all ready to unsubscribe from. (Featuring a guest appearance from my reluctant, but beautiful, Husky co-host, Woolfie.)

Then, I’m joined by professional skier and mountain maven Madison Rose for a fire-side chat on trusting your wild, skiing through hormonal shifts, and what it really takes to elevate your performance—on the slopes and in life.

This episode is equal parts soul reset and alpine adrenaline.

You're going to love it! :)

Masterclass | Who are you without the hustle?

Welcome to the first ever Staying Wild masterclass on the pod. We’re diving deep into a question that stops ambitious women in their tracks:

In this solo masterclass (with a special cameo from my Husky co-host Woolfie), we’re unsubscribing from the toxic propaganda tying your self-worth to your job title, your earnings, or how much you're grinding.

This episode is a permission slip to opt out of burnout, self-sabotaging autopilot, and sacrificing your sanity for success.

Let’s start living your life on your own unapologetic terms.

We explore:

  • The propaganda high-achieving women are finally ditching

  • The identity crisis that hits when the hustle stops

  • The “triangle of transformation” (doing, being, and belief systems)

  • Why your results aren’t changing — even with new habits

  • The invisible architecture underneath your burnout: beliefs + identities

  • The one belief or identity you can shift today to step into your Wild Self

This is for the outwardly successful woman, but who’s inwardly burning out.

It’s time to stop outsourcing your worth to your performance and success. Let’s unlearn the hustle, reclaim your wild.

Key Takeaways:

  • Your beliefs are not facts. Start choosing ones that serve your future.

  • Burnout isn’t always fixed with habits. Identity and belief shifts drive true change.

  • You are not the crazy one. You’re just awake in a system built on over-functioning.

  • You can change your life faster than you think. Neuroplasticity is real and powerful.

  • One belief, one shift, one breath — that’s all it takes to begin.

🐺 Final Note from Wolfie:

“I already know I’m enough by being. Try to keep up, humans.”

Welcome to Staying Wild: The Podcast That’s Here to Rewrite the Rules

/

Hello Wild Ones, and welcome to the very first podcast episode of Staying Wild!

Hosted by Adelaide Goodeve (and occasionally co-hosted by her sassy husky, Wolfie), this podcast is for anyone who's ever been told to "tone it down," "follow the rules," or "settle for a life that doesn’t light you up." Spoiler: we’re not doing that here.

This episode lays the foundation for what’s to come. You’ll hear why Staying Wild was born, who it’s for, and how this show might just be the spark that changes your life.

Why This Podcast Exists

Adelaide’s mission is personal. After being diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) as a teenager, she was told—by the best doctors in London—that she’d be bedridden for life. She didn’t accept that.

Instead, she tapped into something deeper: a wild inner voice that insisted more was possible. This show is an invitation to listen to your wild voice—the part of you that doesn’t settle, doesn’t play small, and isn’t here to live a life of “shoulds.”

What to Expect Each Week

  • Masterclasses: Solo episodes where Adelaide dives into a high-impact mindset or nervous system strategy (10–20 mins).

  • Guest Interviews: 30+ minute conversations with inspiring leaders, coaches, creatives, and athletes who are living their wild life.

  • Wild Dilemmas: Your chance to submit questions or sticky situations—Adelaide will help you untangle them, Bond-glam style.

  • Bonus “Wild Thursday” Episodes: A more unfiltered, behind-the-scenes riff. Think: voice notes from the heart, vulnerable shares, and possibly some Wolfie howls.

The Origin Story

Adelaide shares her raw, powerful journey from being too weak to brush her teeth… to completing Ironmans, becoming a high-performance coach, and skiing the fjords of Norway.

She talks about the life-changing moment she discovered neuroplasticity—the science of how we can rewire our brains—and how tools like the Lightning Process helped her reclaim her health and identity.

But it wasn’t a straight line. Adelaide also opens up about her battle with PMDD—a hormonal condition that hijacked her mind, body, and nearly her will to live. It's vulnerable. It's real. And it’s a masterclass in resilience.

Why "Staying Wild"?

Because staying wild means:

  • Listening to the voice within, not the noise around you

  • Choosing aligned action over fear-based comfort

  • Living a life rooted in freedom, fun, and unapologetic truth

You’ll hear stories of transformation from people who’ve done the impossible and you’ll get the tools to do it yourself. Whether you’re a burnt-out high achiever, an adventurer in disguise, or someone quietly craving more, Staying Wild is your permission slip to come home to yourself.
