Doing meaningful work shouldn’t cost you everything else.

Welcome to The Modern High Performer — the podcast for ambitious professionals who want to do meaningful work and have energy left for the people and priorities that matter most.

I’m Molly Asplin, founder and CEO of The Modern High Performance Group. With my experience in corporate finance and years coaching high-achieving men and women, I’ve seen how easy it is to get stuck in autopilot — chasing success but feeling misaligned, burnt out, or depleted for the people who matter most.

I see a workplace culture that’s become noisy, reactive, and draining — full of people who aren’t burnt out enough to stop, but not energized enough to thrive. It’s the quiet crisis of modern work. And it’s time for a better way. We deserve environments where focus is protected, people are valued, and leaders care about the humans behind the output. That’s the shift I’m here to help create. This show is about changing that.
Every week, we’ll talk about what it really means to thrive in today’s work environment. I’ll share practical strategies, honest stories, and fresh leadership insights to help you grow your career without sacrificing your life outside of it.

Whether you’re navigating a big pivot, leading a team, or simply trying to manage the mental load of work and home, you’ll find encouragement, clarity, and new ways to think about high performance in a sustainable way.

Let’s lead differently. Let’s work better. Let’s live more fully.

Episode 68: Seasons for Rest and Seasons for Hustle Sep 26, 2022

Show notes

I believe there are seasons for rest and seasons for hustle.

You have to slow down to go fast, and rest + recovery goes hand in hand with being a high performer. Knowing when to be intentional about flipping the switch is important!

I also believe that there are seasons/moments that require rolling up our sleeves and getting the hard work accomplished. These are the seasons that can be uncomfortable, but they're also the ones that set us up for growth.

The yin and the yang of rest & hustle.

Episode 65: How To Go From Burnout to Breakthrough Sep 06, 2022

Show notes

Have you ever felt like the activites you're dedicating your time to don't match your interests or your sense of purpose? Or, that you're giving more than you're getting?

3 out of 4 Americans have reported feeling burned out and 70% of American workers aren't passionate about their jobs.

When we dedicate so much time and energy with low passion, it causes exhaustion, disengagement, and productivity suffers.

I have experienced burnout a few different times and in this episode, I break down 5 strategies that helped me overcome it and make a breakthrough on the other side.

The best part about burnout (if you do something about it) is that it can lead to breakthrough - it has for me, and I know it can for you too! There can actually be something really good on the other side of the burnout.

The book I referenced is called Sustain Your Game by Alan Stein Jr. I highly recommend it!

Take a listen and share your biggest takeaway on social media and tag me @molly.asplin so that I can shout you out!

Episode 63: Stop Managing Time, Start Prioritizing Attention with Richie Norton Aug 16, 2022

Show notes

In this episode, I had the honor to interview someone whose work has truly been an inspiration to me, Richie Norton. I came across Richie's content just this past year, and it struck me differently… gave me new perspectives and encouraged me to think in ways I haven't before.

We dive into the problem with "balance", assigning meaning to life experiences, and building your castle (your priorities) and THEN building your moat around it (your work).

Richie is releasing his new book, Anti Time Management, and this episode is a great precursor to the actionable concepts he teaches in the book.
