On MASTERS by Winn Claybaugh Podcast, Tina Shrader Offers Hope for Burnout and Emotional Drain

SANDY, Utah - Jan. 6, 2026 - PRLog -- Tina Shrader is a licensed marriage and family therapist, communication strategist, and founder of Empower Family Therapy and Tina Power™, a brand dedicated to building emotionally sustainable people, workplaces, and service careers. She is known for her signature frameworks that help people understand not just what they said but what the other person heard, felt, and made it mean.

As a 20-something crisis worker in Chicago, Tina supported families in their hardest moments. She quickly learned how to stay grounded in chaos, bring calm to dysregulated people, and help families access logic and connection when emotions were spiraling.

Tina realized that no one gets formal communication training, yet those are the skills that make or break marriages, teams, staff retention, leadership, and client relationships—so she decided to bring those tools into the world. Her mission today is simple: Make communication skills accessible. Make mental health tools normal. And make emotionally sustainable work the new standard.

Interviewed by Winn Claybaugh, Tina is passionate about working with people in hospitality industries—those who serve others for a living and face customer after customer throughout the day. She believes communication—not technical skill—is the real differentiator in both relationships and careers. The "secret sauce" she shares is self-regulation, which includes how you speak to yourself and how you hold space for others. During this interview, Tina presents a real-life example of the acronym CALM in action, which can be a powerful conversation, training, and exercise for you and your team. You'll also love her message about why "family time shouldn't suck." This interview delivers hope for those who feel tired, burnt out, or emotionally drained.
