We’re taught that high-achieving habits mean we’re successful.

Early mornings. Late nights. Full calendars. Constant productivity.

But what if those habits are actually the reason things feel like they’re falling apart?

In this conversation with Registered Nurse and mindset coach Amanda Greening, we challenge the belief that achievement automatically equals success. We talk about why self-care isn’t indulgent, it’s foundational. When we neglect it, everything eventually cracks. When we prioritize it, we work better, think clearer, finish faster, and show up stronger in every area of life.

We also dive into a hard truth: sometimes we spend years climbing a ladder only to realize it was leaning against the wrong building. That’s not failure, it’s feedback. And it might be your invitation to pause, evaluate, and pivot.

If you're new here, this show is about how belief and mindset shape our actions, and how those actions lead to real success in every area of life.

About Amanda:

Your profession is what you do, not who you are. As a Utah-based Registered Nurse with 27 years of healthcare experience, Amanda Greening has seen firsthand the missing piece in traditional medicine: the space for true, whole-person healing. Today, she is bridging that clinical expertise with transformative mindset coaching to help women untangle their identity from their career.

Amanda works with women to uncover exactly where their professional habits betray their personal values. By bridging that gap, she helps them trade constant frustration for genuine inner peace, so they can finally embrace the present and reclaim the moments that matter most.

Currently expanding her impact through board certifications in Nurse Coaching and Health & Wellness Coaching (NC-BC and HWNC-BC), Amanda’s mission is simple: to move beyond the clinical and offer a service-first approach that integrates body, mind, and soul.

When she isn’t helping clients navigate life-level shifts, Amanda is practicing what she preaches—making memories in the mountains, traveling with her husband, or on a quest for the perfect cup of coffee.
