In this episode, I talk with Michelle Niemeyer—speaker, coach, and former attorney—about how high achievers can work with their energy instead of against it. After more than 30 years in law, running her own firm, and serving in public office, Michelle faced a rare autoimmune diagnosis that forced her to slow down and rethink everything about success, productivity, and well-being.
That turning point led her to create The Art of Bending Time, a framework that helps professionals stay sharp and successful without sacrificing their health or joy. Michelle now helps leaders and teams prevent burnout, strengthen focus, and find sustainable ways to thrive.
In this conversation, we get real about what burnout actually is (and isn't), why overworking isn't the same as achieving, and how to shift from constant doing to intentional, energized flow.
What You'll Learn:
How to recognize burnout before it breaks you – The subtle signs high performers often miss, like losing joy in your work, feeling detached, or resenting what once lit you up.
How to make flow your time multiplier – The health, rest, and mindset shifts that help you do in two focused hours what used to take two distracted days.
How to protect your focus and your hours – Simple, realistic ways to eliminate distractions, reduce "time sucks," and reclaim your creative or billable energy.
How to rebuild joy on purpose – Using Michelle's clarity exercise and daily "wins" practice to retrain your mind to notice what's good, fuel motivation, and reconnect with what makes you feel alive.
If you are a lawyer at a law firm or a professional in a very high pressure environment, please pay close attention to what Michelle shares. Listen twice if you need to. Here is my conversation with Michelle
