Tune in to episode 225 of Joy Found Here as executive coach and author Barbara Burgess shares how lowering the bar creates freedom and joy. Learn how her concept of “Enough” and the power of boundaries can transform how you define success.
In this episode, I’m joined by Barbara Burgess, an executive coach, author, and speaker helping leaders and individuals embrace authenticity and redefine success. After over 20 years in corporate leadership, she founded Corluma, a consultancy for heart-centered transformation. She is the author of Enough: Finding Peace in a World of Distractions, Hustle, and Expectations, which invites readers to let go of comparison and embrace their worth. Barbara has also brought her message to the stage with a one-woman show exploring identity, boundaries, and grace. A late-in-life mother of two, she blends personal insight with professional expertise to empower others with confidence, purpose, and joy.
Throughout this episode, Barbara speaks candidly about leaving corporate life for a more authentic and creative path. She highlights the value of honesty over small talk, the courage to admit struggles, and the deeper connections that follow. She explores the toxic pull of comparison, explains how “Enough” emerged as both a felt sense of peace and the foundation of her book, and shows how dropping expectations creates freedom and possibility. Barbara also stresses unapologetic boundaries, shares lessons from her one-woman show, and champions permission and choice as the true starting points for fulfillment. Her message is clear: you are already enough—and from that truth, everything becomes possible.
