There’s a belief many accomplished women carry that we rarely say out loud: if it didn’t cost you everything, it doesn’t count.
In this episode, I trace a pattern that followed me from late-night finals in college to leading week-long retreats around the world. The belief that success and depletion are two sides of the same coin. And I share the moment a therapist asked me a question that changed everything.
We explore what happens when accomplished, high-functioning women stop performing leadership and start participating in it, and what becomes possible when you let go of the belief that it all has to cost you everything. If you’ve ever worn your exhaustion as a badge of honor, this is your invitation to set it down.
