In this episode, we sit down with Vanessa Cornell, a Harvard graduate, former Goldman Sachs professional, and founder of NUSHU, a transformative women’s community. Vanessa’s journey from high-achieving professional to mother of five and then to her own personal awakening has shaped her mission of empowering women to reconnect with their power, purpose, and joy.

Vanessa dives into the concept of The Selfish Mom and why prioritizing yourself is not only necessary but transformative. We explore the cultural conditioning that leads to guilt and overgiving, the importance of setting boundaries, and how reconnecting with yourself can unlock a deeper connection to your family and community. Vanessa shares powerful insights from her retreats, including how to hold space, embrace imperfection, and create a life rooted in authenticity and purpose.

Whether you’re a mother feeling overwhelmed or a woman seeking to reconnect with your true self, this episode will leave you inspired to embrace the idea that self-prioritization is the key to living a life of fulfillment.
