Description

In this episode, I’m talking directly to the women who feel like they are always on.


The ones carrying the entire mental load.

The ones who can’t rest, even when they want to.

The ones who are holding everything together at home, at work, in their marriage


…and are secretly burning out under the weight of it all.


You’ll learn:


- How being a high-functioning woman can create emotional distance in your marriage

- The impact of constantly “performing” and how it drains intimacy and connection

- Why rest isn’t laziness and how your refusal to rest is sabotaging your relationship

- What it looks like to *just be* in your marriage, not do

- How to stop picking the mental load back up when you’ve asked for help


Whether you’re craving support, deeper intimacy, or just a moment to breathe, this one’s for you.


If you’ve been carrying the weight of your marriage, your home, your career, and more… you don’t have to anymore. Listen in.
