    Jan 31 2025

    Send us a text

    It's ok to stop pretending all is going well if it's not.
    And I know it's easier said than done when you were raised to suppress your emotions, smile, and do what's expected anyway...

    But it's time to stop using crutches and comforting your pain through addictions, or even never-ending learning and thinking "I'll feel better when..."
    Those are distractions and avoidance strategies. They won't help you put your life back on track and feel in control again.

    So where do you even start?

    Give yourself the permission to not feel ok.
    And tune into this podcast episode so that you know you're not alone, and what's possible once you work through this.

  • Ep 129: So if I don't need to be the "good girl" anymore, who am I?
    Dec 6 2024

    Send us a text

    If you grew up being forced to be a chameleon—to change your personality, hide your emotions, prove you're good enough, not to be criticized and shamed, always under pressure and under a microscope to be perfect, in control...

    Then realizing this is all part of your childhood baggage that needs to be cleaned up, that can feel scary.

    Because the next question is: Well, so who am I then?

    What is the real me? If I don't need to mold and change myself not to trigger people around me for being too much, or not enough.

    And what do I even want for myself?

    Because so often you're spending all your time, energy, and thoughts on helping your kids grow up and live their dreams... But how about you? What would you wish to do, who do wish to be? How are you that living example of "anything is possible" and "dreams come true"?

    How can you do that, even when you have a ton of responsibilities and a lot of people rely on you and your help?

    Dive in with me.

    There are 3 steps you can start taking right NOW. So that you find out who you are, and start making steps in that direction - no more self-sacrificing burned-out victims. You're taking your control back. You're the hero of your story. And you can do that even while taking care of your family. There's nothing selfish about that. On the contrary.

    Let's go!
