Listen Later

What if success doesn’t have to cost you everything?

In this weeks episode, Heather sits down with author and entrepreneur Alyson Caffrey to talk about the unseen emotional labor of being "the strong one." From the moment she checked in with clients after giving birth to her first child, Alyson began questioning the cultural narratives that taught her to grind, produce, and prove her worth no matter the cost.

Together, they unpack what it really takes to shift out of burnout and into alignment, create systems that support rest, and redefine success on your own terms.

In this episode, they discuss:

🩶 The hidden cost of tying your self-worth to productivity

🩶 What it really looks like to rest, recover, and still lead powerfully

🩶 How to grieve old identities while raising your standards

If you’re the one everyone leans on but you’re secretly wondering who supports you—this episode will remind you of what you actually deserve.
