✨ What if the real breakthrough isn’t in what you do... but in what you finally stop doing?

Let’s be real — most high-achieving moms aren’t lazy or lost. We’re just stuck in survival mode: over-functioning, over-coping, and emotionally exhausted from trying to be everything for everyone.

We run on guilt. We prove our worth through productivity. And then we wonder why peace, pleasure, and joy feel like a moving target.

In this raw and real episode, I’m sharing 7 powerful things I stopped doing that helped me break free from burnout, end the cycle of self-abandonment, and reclaim my identity as a woman — not just a mom.

These aren’t surface-level productivity hacks. They’re deep identity shifts that will help you feel joy again, reconnect with your body, and finally create space for rest without guilt.

💥 In this episode, you’ll learn:

• The hidden costs of people-pleasing and over-functioning in motherhood

• Why treating rest like a reward is a trap — and how to reclaim it as your right

• How guilt-based decisions keep you stuck in survival mode

• What emotional numbness is really trying to tell you (and how to reconnect with joy)

• The exact questions to ask yourself before saying yes, setting goals, or showing up

If you’ve been surviving instead of thriving, this episode is your call to stop abandoning yourself — and start living again.
