About this episode
In this very candid episode, I sit down with Janine Mitchell, the founder of Change for Success, whose life journey is a remarkable story of transformation. From working as a flight attendant to managing high-risk offenders as a UK probation officer, Janine battled burnout, abuse, and emotional trauma. She opens up about surviving an abusive marriage, the wake-up call that changed everything, and how tapping (EFT) and therapy led her to rebuild her life and career, and later move to Thailand.Now a mindset and wellbeing coach helping overwhelmed professionals, Janine shares insight on resilience, self-belief, emotional healing, and the power of changing your inner story.Key TakeawaysBurnout doesn’t always look like collapse. It can show up as constant pressure, emotional exhaustion, and disconnection from purpose.Helping others won’t heal your own wounds. Janine worked with victims and offenders daily—while struggling in silence at home.Emotional abuse isn’t always visible. Coercion, gaslighting, and charm can hide years of control and harm.Therapy can be the turning point. One conversation helped Janine begin separating her identity from her trauma.Language reflects our mindset. Noticing how often she said “try” helped Janine uncover deep-rooted self-doubt.EFT (tapping) is a powerful self-regulation tool. Learning this simple method helped Janine manage stress, triggers, and anxiety.Travel created space to think clearly. Stepping away physically helped her access the clarity she couldn’t find at home.Healing is non-linear but possible. Change came through small daily decisions, not overnight breakthroughs.Your story doesn’t define your future. Janine rewrote her life from the inside out—personally and professionally.Wellbeing isn’t a luxury—it’s a necessity. And now, it’s the foundation of her work with professionals facing similar overwhelm.About: Janine Mitchell is the founder of Change for Success.
