You’re great at your job, but your paycheck doesn’t reflect it.


Sound familiar?

In this episode Sharon dives into why so many midlife women are overworked, underpaid, and stuck in cycles of burnout - even when they’re excelling at work.

Drawing on research and lived experience, Sharon unpacks the hidden traps that keep women stuck: being valued for loyalty instead of growth, mistaking exhaustion for worth, and carrying invisible work that rarely gets rewarded.

✨ What you’ll hear in this episode:

  • Why being “needed” isn’t the same as being valued
  • How loyalty and invisible work quietly hold you back
  • The link between burnout, boundaries, and underpayment
  • Practical ways to say no without burning bridges

If you’re ready to stop proving and start choosing, this conversation will give you tools to reclaim your value, visibility, and future.
