Feeling stuck in a post-coffee slump? Running on autopilot through your afternoons? Or do you believe you don’t have time for a real lunch? This episode of This Is Woman’s Work is here to change all that.

Our guest, Cheryl K. Johnson, brings us back to basics in the most energizing way possible. Cheryl is a researcher by profession and a long-time food and fitness enthusiast at heart. She knows firsthand the push and pull between career and self-care and how often we sacrifice the latter for the former. When Cheryl realized her own career was no longer feeding her (pun fully intended), she developed a revolutionary approach to reclaiming a mindful lunch break: Box Lunch Lifestyle.

Cheryl’s method isn’t just about eating—it’s about carving out time to fuel your body, reset your mind, and honor your energy. Her book Box Lunch Lifestyle lays out how a simple, intentional lunch can transform your day—and she’s here to teach us how to make it happen.

Key Takeaways:

Why lunch might be the most impactful change you can make to your day.
How to reclaim a lunch break that fuels your energy and focus.
Practical tips for building a lunch routine that works for you.

Let’s stop settling for whatever’s closest or easiest and start feeding ourselves in ways that fuel not just our bodies but our lives.

Maria Shriver, who has been dear friends with Oprah since they met nearly 50 years ago, joins the Podcast to talk about her new book of poetry titled I AM MARIA: My Reflections and Poems on Heartbreak, Healing, and Finding Your Way Home. After reading the breathtaking book, Oprah said Maria Shriver “has Americans reading poetry again!” And she called it “raw and soul-baring… My jaw was on the floor!” Through poetry, Maria Shriver, who was born into American political royalty and public tragedy, shares never-before-heard intimate stories from her childhood including what it was like growing up with her mother, Eunice Kennedy Shriver, and her father, Sargent Shriver, as well as being the only girl in a household of brothers she calls “chaotic” and “terrifying.” Maria candidly talks about her 25-year marriage to Arnold Schwarzenegger and what happened the moment she found out her marriage was over. Maria shares lessons on what the betrayal and heartbreak of her divorce taught her about her past traumas and how she’s been able to find forgiveness. Maria writes about raising her four children, her favorite role of all – grandmother to Chris Pratt and Katherine Schwarzenegger’s three children (they call her Mama G) - and how she’s finally found peace. Maria says, “I never imagined writing poetry would help me embark on a journey deep into myself. I never imagined that everything I sought or thought I needed was within me all along.” Oprah tells viewers and listeners she sees this book of poetry as an invitation for anyone who is ready to create an authentic and meaningful life for themselves.

The Broken Rung: When The Career Ladder Breaks For Women with Kweilin Ellingrud | 291 35:12

9 days ago35:12

35:12

Women excel in school—higher GPAs, more degrees, more advanced education—yet the moment they enter the workforce, the advantage disappears. And when it comes time for promotions, the numbers tell a stark truth: for every 100 men promoted to manager, only 81 women make the jump. This gap compounds over time, keeping women from reaching senior leadership long before they ever get a shot at the top. This is what our guest today, Kweilin Ellingrud, calls The Broken Rung—the single biggest obstacle preventing women from advancing in their careers. As a McKinsey senior partner, researcher, and co-author of The Broken Rung: When the Career Ladder Breaks for Women—and How They Can Succeed in Spite of It , Kweilin has spent years studying this issue and developing actionable strategies to help women navigate and overcome these barriers—regardless of whether their companies are ready to fix the system. No one’s saying you have to climb the corporate ladder. If you want to build your own, take a completely different route, or burn the whole damn thing down—I support you. But if you do want to climb, the bare minimum should be that your ladder is as solid, as high-reaching, and as accessible as anyone else’s. So climb. We’ll be holding the ladder for you.

Ever caught yourself thinking, Why am I like this? Maybe you wish you were more outgoing, less anxious, better at setting boundaries, or just less awkward at small talk (or maybe that’s just me). But this episode isn’t about forcing you to become someone you’re not. It’s about understanding how personality works, what’s actually within our control, and whether we can tweak the internal settings to become a version of ourselves we actually like being. And that’s exactly what our guest set out to prove—through science and a little self-experimentation. Olga Hazan is an award-winning journalist, staff writer for The Atlantic, and the author of Me, But Better , where she explores the science of personality change. But she didn’t just research it—she spent a year experimenting on herself, testing whether she could intentionally reshape key aspects of her personality. Because why just write about something when you can live it? The truth is, whether you like it or not, you are changing. The question is: do you want to have a say in how?

How Is Your Spiritual Health? with Dr. Lisa Miller | 287 28:01

21 days ago28:01

Spiritual health isn’t about following a specific religion, meditating on a mountaintop, or taking the sacrament (unless you want to do those things). It’s about something deeper—our connection to something greater than ourselves, our capacity for faith, and the hope that carries us through life’s challenges. Dr. Lisa Miller is a New York Times bestselling author of The Spiritual Child and The Awakened Brain . She’s a professor in the Clinical Psychology Program at Teachers College, Columbia University, and the founder of the Spirituality Mind Body Institute—the first Ivy League graduate program dedicated to the study of spirituality and psychology. Her groundbreaking research has been published in over 100 peer-reviewed articles, and she’s a sought-after speaker, working with the U.S. military, Fortune 500 companies, schools, and healthcare organizations to integrate spirituality into mental health and leadership. Spirituality isn’t just a belief system—it’s a proven driver of resilience, purpose, and well-being. In this episode, we dive into: ✔️ How spiritual health impacts mental resilience and emotional well-being ✔️ The neuroscience behind spirituality and how it physically changes the brain ✔️ Why faith—whether in God, the universe, or your inner wisdom—makes you stronger ✔️ Practical ways to nurture your spiritual health (without needing a formal practice) Because here’s the truth: Whatever created you, lives within you—and that alone makes you inherently valuable, worthy, and powerful.

🤔What does it truly mean to belong at work? 💭How do we create workplaces where people can thrive without sacrificing who they are? ❓And what happens when belonging feels out of reach? If you’ve ever felt like an outsider in your workplace or wondered how to cultivate a culture of true inclusion, this episode is for you. Dr. Beth Kaplan is a leading expert in workplace resilience and belonging. As a sought-after consultant, speaker, and author of Braving the Workplace: Belonging at the Breaking Point , she has spent decades redefining what it means to belong in professional environments. She’s currently pioneering a groundbreaking belonging measurement tool with the University of Pennsylvania—one that predicts the likelihood of thriving in the workplace. Belonging isn’t just about feeling good at work—it’s about knowing you’re in the right place to thrive, contribute, and grow. It’s a foundation that fuels everything from innovation to resilience. And when we recognize our own value and claim spaces where we can show up authentically, we make room for others to do the same. That’s how we transform workplaces into communities. Because here’s the truth: When you feel valued, you show up, speak up, and make the impact only you can.

QUALIFIED: How Competency Checking and Race Collide at Work with Shari Dunn | 284 33:58

28 days ago33:58

33:58

In this episode, we delve into the concept of being "qualified" in the workplace, examining who gets labeled as such, who doesn't, and the underlying reasons. We explore "competency checking"—the practice of scrutinizing individuals' abilities—and how it disproportionately affects underrepresented groups, often going unnoticed or unchallenged. Our discussion aims to redefine qualifications in a fair, equitable, and actionable manner. Our guest, Shari Dunn , is an accomplished journalist, former attorney, news anchor, CEO, university professor, and sought-after speaker. She has been recognized as Executive of the Year and a Woman of Influence, with her work appearing in Fortune Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, Ad Age, and more. Her new book, Qualified: How Competency Checking and Race Collide at Work , unpacks what it truly means to be deserving and capable—and why systemic barriers, not personal deficits, are often the real problem. Her insights challenge the narratives that hold so many of us back and offer practical solutions for building a more equitable future. Together, we can build workplaces and communities that don’t just reflect the world we live in, but the one we want to create. A world where being qualified is about recognizing the talent and potential that’s been overlooked for far too long. It’s not just about getting a seat at the table—it’s about building an entirely new table, one designed with space for all of us.

In our fast-paced world, we often equate success with relentless effort, sharpening our edges to navigate life's challenges. But what if embracing gentleness could lead to a different kind of strength—one that fosters rest, compassion, and grace? In this episode, we explore the transformative power of gentleness toward ourselves and others. Our guest, Courtney Carver , is a renowned advocate for simplicity and minimalism. She is the creator of Be More with Less and the innovative Project 333, a minimalist fashion challenge that has inspired many to declutter their lives. Her latest book, Gentle: Rest More, Stress Less, and Live the Life You Actually Want , serves as a permission slip to stop pushing so hard and start embracing a gentler approach to life. Courtney has been featured in publications like O, The Oprah Magazine, Vogue, and The New York Times. She also co-hosts the Soul & Wit Podcast with her daughter, Bailey, highlighting that gentleness can indeed be a family affair. In this conversation, Courtney shares insights on how softening our approach doesn't equate to weakness but rather leads to wisdom, resilience, and deeper connections with what truly matters. She discusses practical steps to incorporate gentleness into daily life, emphasizing that being tough may have gotten us here, but being gentle might be what leads us to where we truly want to go.
