Episode 111: Unmute Yourself with Rachel Druckenmiller

Jacklyn Osborne & Erika Brooks Season 1 Episode 111

Do you ever deal with self-doubt, burnout, or a lack of fulfillment in your work and life? So many of us hold ourselves back, silence ourselves, and let doubt dictate what we do, limiting our growth and potential. What if we could tap into greater clarity, confidence, and courage and have a bolder, more intentional, and more fulfilling life and career? That’s what today’s guest is here to help us do.


Rachel Druckenmiller is a keynote speaker, TEDx, and leadership trainer on a mission to help organizations, leaders, and teams unmute themselves. Recognized by The Daily Record as one of Maryland’s Top 100 Women of 2022, Forbes as a Next1000 honoree in 2021, the #1 Health Promotion Professional in the U.S. by the Wellness Council of America in 2015, and a 40 Under 40 Game Changer in 2019, Rachel is a change agent whose refreshing perspective has helped her stand out as a leader in her field. She is also a course instructor for Simon Sinek’s virtual classroom and a singer-songwriter.


Episode highlights: 


  • Burnout and getting mono

The importance of speaking about and addressing well-being in a different, more authentic way. We do not have to be confined to the traditional wellness industry perceptions.

  • Living Unmuted 

The concept of "living unmuted" is about confidently and boldly expressing oneself. Emotional expression, creative expression, and finding the right language are important to describe one's feelings. The use of apps like Mood Meter and techniques such as "pause, breathe, notice, and choose" can help individuals manage their emotions and react more thoughtfully to situations. 

  • Embracing Emotional Intelligence

The idea of embracing emotional intelligence and developing a richer emotional vocabulary. Physiological responses to emotions and how identifying these responses can help individuals recognize and manage their feelings effectively.
