360. Carrying the Load: What It's Really Like Being the Anchor in a High-Performance Family


Listen Later

It's not always easy…

"How do you do it?" is a question I often get asked. However, the people asking aren't always looking for the same answer. Some want to know how I maintain my identity, while others want to know if my level of success is attainable for everybody. Sometimes, what they're really asking is "what is it like to be the woman behind the man?"

My husband Dan could not have accomplished everything he's done without me. And in that way, I am fundamentally not only his biggest cheerleader, but also a part of his success, which I'm discussing in this episode.

In this episode, you will learn about:

  • My husband's success and how it's influenced our lives together.
  • What preserving my identity means to me and why it comes easily.
  • How we handle power and responsibility in our relationship.
  • How setting boundaries fortifies our relationship and keeps us on the same page.
  • The sacrifices I've made as a partner and mom and why I'm glad in hindsight.
  • How I've come to embrace being seen and what I've learned from it.
  • How we handle hate comments and negativity.
  • The times when I let my ambitions take a back seat and what makes it okay.
