The Corinne Morahan Podcast

EP 64: The CEO Shift

Running a successful business or household means getting clear on what truly needs you and releasing the rest.
 
This episode starts with Corinne Morahan sharing a moment most high achievers dream about: enjoying a vacation in Hawaii while her businesses run without her. How? Systems, delegation, and a willingness to let go. She also shares the story of a client who finally admitted out loud that she didn’t need her business financially and how that one honest sentence opened the door to a completely different way of thinking. If you didn’t have to do all the things, what would you actually want to do?
 
Corinne digs into the shift from doer to leader, and why holding onto every task could be the very thing holding you back. She offers real talk on outsourcing, letting others take ownership (even if they do it differently than you would), and creating success metrics that set your team, and you, up to win. Whether you run a business, manage a household, or both, this episode will challenge you to rethink how you spend your time and who you give your energy to.

EP 63: The Power of Proximity

Your next level of success may have less to do with strategy and more to do with who’s sitting next to you.
 
This week, Corinne Morahan unpacks what happens when you intentionally build relationships that stretch your thinking, raise your standards, and hold you to the version of yourself you’re working toward. Could the fastest path to growth be as simple as being in the right room?
 
Corinne breaks down the three kinds of relationships that can move the needle the most—peers, mentors, and intimate connections—and shares how each one plays a role in both your business and your personal fulfillment. You’ll hear how proximity to high-caliber women sparked more growth for Corinne in five weeks than she had in the entire year before.
 
This episode doesn’t shy away from the tougher side of the conversation either. Corinne offers a thoughtful take on setting boundaries with relationships that no longer align and gives permission to shift those dynamics with grace. If you’ve been feeling ready for a stronger, more aligned circle, this is your invitation to stop waiting and start curating.

EP 62: Productive Distraction

Most high achievers crave clarity but unknowingly crowd out their own intuition with more productivity. If clearing distractions hasn’t brought the insight you expected, maybe the real work isn’t in doing. It’s in listening.
 
In this episode, Corinne Morahan explores why the habit of staying busy can become a barrier to intuition. She shares her own experience of stripping away clutter, only to realize that empty space doesn’t automatically lead to deeper self-trust. Instead of filling every free moment with more tasks, what if the real shift comes from creating room for stillness?
 
Corinne challenges the belief that productivity equals progress. She offers a different approach: one that invites curiosity, quiet, and self-trust. If you’ve ever wondered why clarity still feels out of reach despite all your effort, this episode might change the way you think about success.

EP 61: The Social Media Swap

Your daily habits shape your future. What could change if you swapped mindless scrolling for something that actually fuels your growth?
 
In this episode, Corinne Morahan put this idea to the test with an experiment. For a full month, every time she felt the urge to scroll social media, she chose to engage with something that expanded her thinking whether it was a podcast, a business course, or personal development content. She didn’t quit social media, but she did take control of how she used her time. The result? More mental clarity, better focus, and a sense of ownership over her energy.
 
Corinne didn’t think she needed this experiment. Social media never felt like a huge drain, and she wasn’t spending hours lost in it. But even those quick check-ins added up. By replacing passive consumption with intentional learning, she saw firsthand how small shifts can lead to big changes.
 
This episode challenges you to consider how your inputs affect your creativity, energy, and ability to show up at your best. Corinne shares simple steps to test this approach for yourself and explains why high achievers need to be as intentional with their attention as they are with their goals. If you’re ready to reclaim your time and use it in a way that truly moves you forward, this one’s for you.

EP 60: Part 4: Moving with Certainty & Collapsing Timelines

Success doesn’t happen when you wait. It happens when you decide.
 
In the final part of her four-part series, Corinne Morahan challenges the belief that growth is a slow, step-by-step process. Success isn’t about working harder but about moving with certainty. Corinne shares three key shifts that make all the difference: trusting your decisions, stepping into the mindset of your future self, and letting go of backup plans that quietly hold you back.
 
Corinne gets personal about the safety net she didn’t even realize she was holding onto and how removing it changed everything. She asks listeners to take a hard look at where they might be hesitating, playing it safe, or waiting for the “right time.” Could that hesitation be the thing keeping you stuck?
 
This episode is a wake-up call to commit fully, act with certainty, and stop second-guessing your path. Corinne invites listeners to reflect, take bold action, and share their breakthroughs, because success moves at the speed of your decisions.

EP 59: Part 3: The Power of Structured Freedom: How high-level systems and alignment create more time, money, and ease

Does structure really crush creativity, or is it the key to unlocking it? 
 
In part three of this four-part series, Corinne Morahan challenges the misconception that structure limits freedom, offering her perspective on how intentional systems can create space for creativity, productivity, and ease. Using relatable examples and client experiences, Corinne shows how organizing the small things can dramatically reduce decision fatigue and free your energy for the decisions that truly matter.
 
Could the tasks you avoid systematizing actually be your biggest energy drains? What if the secret to achieving more isn't doing more, but doing things differently? Corinne invites listeners to experiment with batching tasks and setting clear boundaries around focused work. Her insights inspire a shift from reactive multitasking to intentional action, opening the door to higher-level productivity and fulfillment.

EP 58: Part 2: You Are the Asset—And It’s Time You Started Acting Like It

Your business and life will only grow as much as you do.
 
If you’re constantly drained, how can you expect to lead, create, or build anything that lasts? In part two of this four-part series, Corinne Morahan unpacks a truth many high achievers ignore: more work doesn’t equal more success. Pushing harder without protecting your energy leads to burnout, poor decision-making, and stalled growth. But when you prioritize yourself, everything expands—your clarity, your revenue, your impact.
 
Corinne shares a practical exercise to spot hidden energy drains and a simple framework to decide what to do, delete, or delegate. She also challenges you to set one clear boundary this week and stick to it. Because if you don’t protect your time, who will?
 
This episode is a reminder that success isn’t about doing more. It’s about showing up fully for what matters. Next, Corinne dives into the power of structured freedom and why the way you manage your time could be the key to everything you’re working toward.

EP 57: Part 1: Success Isn’t Random

“High achievers don’t wait for success. They create it.”
 
Is success something that happens to you, or something you make happen? Corinne Morahan kicks off a four-part series designed to help you step into your highest potential without waiting for the perfect moment, permission, or a step-by-step guide from someone else.
 
This episode breaks down three key shifts that set high achievers apart. First, define your next level vision. What does success actually look like for you? Too many people chase goals that don’t align with what they truly want, only to feel unfulfilled when they get there. Next, audit your habits. Are you filling your days with busy work, or are you making strategic moves that drive real progress? Finally, step into CEO energy. The most successful people don’t second-guess every decision. They trust themselves, act with certainty, and move forward even when fear is in the mix.
 
Corinne challenges you to take one bold step today: make a decision you’ve been avoiding, without polling others for advice first. This series is all about momentum, and it starts with you taking the lead.

00:00 Introduction 
00:34 Success Isn’t Random

EP 56: On Friendships: Conversations for Good with Briggs Rolfsrud

Letting go of a friendship can be just as tough as holding on to one. So how do you know when to walk away and when to work through it?
 
In this episode, Corinne Morahan and Briggs Rolfsrud talk about the reality of adult friendships—the ones that last, the ones that fade, and the ones that need a hard goodbye. They share personal stories, unpack why friendships shift over time, and explore how to prioritize the relationships that truly matter. Corinne’s four-step organizing framework offers a fresh way to think about friendships, from recognizing when a connection no longer serves you to making time for the people who do.
 
If you’ve ever questioned whether to reach out, step back, or completely move on, Corinne and Briggs’ conversation will give you clarity and maybe even the push you need to nurture the friendships that deserve your energy.
 
Quotes
“It’s so hard to lose a friend, whether by choice or by their omission, right? When they kind of let you go, and you’re left wondering why—should you reach out or not?” (03:07 | Briggs Rolfsrud)
“Two things can be true at once: it can be sad that I have to let this person go or they let me go, and it’s the right thing that had to happen because of where we are in our lives and who we are.” (07:57 | Corinne Morahan)
“It’s okay to just say goodbye to someone for a reason that makes sense to you and maybe not to most of the people that you know.” (12:25 | Briggs Rolfsrud)
“Just because you have the conversation doesn’t mean that you’re gonna choose to salvage it. You may still end up walking away, but at least you’ll know you tried.” (21:00 | Corinne Morahan)
“Compromises can happen within your boundaries. You don’t want to go outside of them, but there’s a lot of wiggle room.” (22:53 | Briggs Rolfsrud)

EP 55: Make ‘Getting Organized’ The Easy Thing To Do

Getting organized shouldn’t feel like a constant struggle. Corinne Morahan breaks down how to set up systems that make organization the easiest option so you’re not relying on willpower to stay on top of things. What if your home worked with you instead of against you? What if small tweaks could eliminate daily frustration and make life run smoother?  
 
Corinne shares simple shifts that transformed her own home, like ditching laundry baskets in her kids’ rooms to cut out an unnecessary step or expanding shoe storage to prevent the daily pileup. She also highlights creative solutions from her friend Briggs, who rethought where her family’s swim gear and socks belong based on how they actually live, not just where things are “supposed” to go.  
 
The biggest takeaway? Organization should fit your life, not the other way around. If something feels like a hassle, it’s a sign the system needs to change. Corinne challenges listeners to spot the friction points in their routines and ask: How could this be easier? Because when the easy thing is the organized thing, staying on top of life stops feeling like a chore.
 
Quotes
“The solutions only need to make sense to you and only need to make your life easier. It doesn’t need to make sense to anyone else.” (14:51 | Corinne Morahan) 
“Staying organized should not feel hard. It does require some maintenance, the Sunday reset or resetting whenever you feel like you need to, but it actually should not feel hard. And so, if you’ve spent the time and energy to get organized and it’s feeling hard, that is an important cue to you that you need to really reassess some of the systems that you’ve set up.” (16:04 | Corinne Morahan)
“When you set up systems that support your lifestyle, you eliminate the necessity for making decisions. You’ve just eliminated the necessity to make them. And that in and of itself makes life easier.” (17:30 | Corinne Morahan)
