The Reinvention Era

You look fine. You look like you’ve got it all handled.

But underneath? You’re running on grit, caffeine, and dry shampoo.

This episode is for the high-functioning, high-achieving woman who’s secretly f*cking exhausted from performing strength.

We’re talking about the “survival scripts” that get you praised, promoted, and depended on… but keep you playing small. The ones that look like power but quietly cost you your peace, your joy, and your freedom.

Inside, I break down….

• Overfunctioning: when carrying everything feels like worth
  
  
• Productivity addiction: why you can’t stop, even when you’re bone-deep tired
  
  
• Perfectionism: fear disguised as “high standards”
  
  
• Emotional detachment: the fortress that keeps you safe (and lonely)
  
  
• Silence: the sparkly disguise for self-abandonment
  
  

And I don’t just call them out… I give you the flips. The messy, human, doable ways to trade those outdated coping patterns for something that actually supports your reinvention.

If you’ve ever thought, “I should be fine, so why do I feel like this?”…
If you’ve ever worn your burnout like a badge…
If you’ve ever wanted to smash the invisible glass ceiling you built for yourself…

This one will light a fire in your gut.
