I’m Dr. Kate Rodriguez a licensed professional counselor supervisor, forensic evaluator, and founder of My Healing Center in Corpus Christi, Texas. With a doctorate in counseling education and supervision and over 15 years in the mental health field, I’ve built a career helping people untangle their inner chaos, navigate trauma, and reclaim their peace.

But here’s the truth: even with all my training, I wasn’t immune to burnout. I want everybody here to shine their light and not burnout!

As a business owner, professor, mother of two, and Latina professional raised in a high-achieving household, I wore a lot of hats and almost lost myself under the weight of it all. I saw the same pattern in my clients: smart, driven women doing everything right, yet still feeling depleted, unseen, and stuck.

That’s what led me to the stage and the podcast.

I am an overachiever but I am a total S*#TSHOW. I never have it all together and people who truly know me are sometimes baffled at how much I still get done. I started the podcast to show the real stories behind other high achievers success stories. I pull the curtain back so other high achievers can see that none of us really have it together.

I speak to rooms full of lawyers, therapists, educators, and leaders who are tired of white-knuckling their way through success. My talks are part education, part truth-telling, and part call to action. I offer research-backed tools infused with humor, cultural insight, and hard-earned wisdom. Because burnout doesn’t just affect our work, it steals our joy, our relationships, and our sense of self.

If you're ready for honest conversations that spark real change, I’m ready to book a speech or workshop for you.
