Have you ever done all the healing—therapy, journaling, self-care—and still felt like no one truly sees you? Like you’re holding everyone else together… but no one’s holding you?
In today’s episode, I’m sharing a deeply personal (and very common) pattern that so many high-achieving moms fall into without even realizing it. It’s the hidden loop of over-functioning, people-pleasing, and emotional self-abandonment that creates chronic stress, burnout, and even physical illness—even when you’re doing the mindset work and trying to “take care of yourself.”
We talk about the exact belief that was driving my own burnout, how I realized I was rejecting help while crying out for support, and what it really takes to rewire the nervous system so you can stop operating from survival and start living from a place of receiving.
If you’ve ever felt like your body is shutting down, like no one shows up for you the way you show up for them, or like your worth is tied to how much you do… this episode will hit home.
Tune in to hear:
The subconscious belief that keeps high-achieving moms stuck in burnout

How to shift from self-sacrifice to self-trust (without burning it all down)
