Not one appointment for my dreams.Sound familiar?In this episode, I'm walking you through what I call Identity Archaeology — the three layers of self that women like us build over decades: the Survival Self (the brilliant manager who never stops managing), the Achieving Self (the optimizer who forgot what she was optimizing for), and buried underneath it all, your Original Self (the dreame...
