In this raw and empowering episode, I dive deep into a recent therapy breakthrough that made me realize something surprising: even after all my work on boundaries and people-pleasing, there’s still a part of me that questions whether I deserve to protect my time—especially for writing.
This conversation unpacks the difference between knowing what self-worth is and actually believing it. I share why our culture makes self-worth so hard to root in, how high-achieving women are especially vulnerable to tying their value to productivity, and a powerful question that can help anchor you back into your truth.
You’ll also hear the 3 things I deeply value about myself that have nothing to do with being helpful, productive, or perfect—and why identifying your own list could be the most freeing thing you do this week.
