407 - Energy Drains Aren’t a Time Problem — They’re a Boundary Problem
Description
If you’ve been feeling stretched thin, constantly “on,” or quietly resentful even while doing everything “right”… this episode is going to land.
Because here’s the truth most high-capacity women were never taught:
You can’t honor your energy without boundaries — and every time you override your limits, your nervous system pays the price.
We’re dismantling the modern myth that energy is a mindset problem… and revealing the real reason you feel depleted, overwhelmed, or numb:
nervous-system-based boundary collapse.
Whether it shows up as people-pleasing, chronic overfunctioning, emotional caretaking, guilt when resting, or simply the inability to say no… your body keeps the score long before you mentally “notice” you’re burned out.
Inside this conversation, you’ll learn:
✔️ The neuroscience of energy leaks
How fawning, over-giving, and constant striving keep your body in chronic fight-or-flight — and why shutdown, numbness, and exhaustion often follow.
✔️ What boundary collapse really looks like in high-achieving women
The subtle signs you’ve normalized (resentment, irritability, over-responsibility, low bandwidth, self-abandonment) — and how your body interprets them as danger cues.
✔️ Why your limits aren’t flaws — they’re design features
How honoring your God-given capacity actually expands your ability to show up with clarity, purpose, and peace.
✔️ Why honoring your energy is impossible without nervous-system alignment
And why no planner, routine, or productivity hack will give you the bandwidth your body doesn’t have.
