Presenting: The Breakout

Season 3

I’m excited to introduce you to The Breakout podcast, a show that’s all about incredible stories of personal growth and breaking through boundaries.


Hosted by Dr. Keri Ohlrich and Kelly Guenther, The Breakout is packed with conversations that dive into how we can move beyond the limits we put on ourselves and embrace bold new directions.


Each episode comes with lessons on living courageously, with topics on self-help, leadership, personal development, building success, setting personal boundaries, growing your confidence, overcoming self doubt, and knowing your self worth. From huge transformations to quiet shifts, The Breakout highlights why every change matters.

Today’s episode features a powerful interview with Celeste Headlee, award-winning journalist and author of Do Nothing: How to Break Away from Overworking, Overdoing, and Underliving. Celeste is asking out loud the question we’ve likely all been wondering: Why are we so obsessed with productivity and efficiency? Even when it's making us miserable?


Keri and Kelly’s new book Whatever the Hell You Want – An Escape Plan to Break Out of Life’s Little Boxes and Live Free From Expectations, is out now. Find it on Amazon!Dr. Keri Ohlrich’s book The Way of the HR Warrior is also available now.
