About this listen

I'm about to call out a pattern you've been living your entire life, one that's kept you safe, earned you praise, and slowly stolen your dreams.


You're the one everyone calls. The one who remembers the birthdays, manages the family calendar, organizes the holidays, handles the details, fixes the problems, keeps the peace. You're reliable, dependable, the glue that holds everything together.


And on paper, that sounds amazing, right?


Except here's what nobody tells you about being the responsible one: It's killing your dreams. Slowly, quietly, without you even realizing it's happening.


In this raw, honest episode, I'm naming something you've been living with your entire life but have never had the words for. And more importantly, I'm showing you exactly how to break free from it.


By the end, you'll understand why your dreams feel inconvenient, why you can't take real risks, and you'll walk away with the clarity and tools to reclaim your time, energy, and identity, without blowing up your life or abandoning the people you love.


What You'll Learn:

  • What “the mental load” really is — and why it’s burning out millions of women worldwide
  • The Good Girl Syndrome: how people-pleasing and perfectionism become survival strategies
  • Why your business never seems to grow (and what running on leftovers really costs you)
  • 5 steps to stop being responsible to everyone else and start being responsible for your own life
  • How to set boundaries, protect your time, and build your business like it actually matters
