Are women paying too high a price for success today?

In this honest and eye-opening conversation, I sit down with psychologist Irina Tarasenco to explore what success really costs women - from health struggles and body image, to marriages under strain, children’s mental health, and the deep unhappiness that often sits beneath the desire for outward achievement.

We ask the hard questions:

✨ Is recognition and career success worth it if it costs our wellbeing and relationships?

✨ Should women work and what is the effect it has on society?

✨ What role does the family unit, love, and responsibility play in finding true fulfillment and happiness?

✨ How can women create a life plan that feels balanced - where the “price of success” is chosen, not imposed?

And lots more!

This episode is for every woman striving to “have it all” while wondering if the sacrifices are truly worth it. This was a hard conversation to have but I felt it was needed. You may not agree with everything that is said in this conversation, but at the very least we hope it helps you think about things a bit more. If you’ve ever felt the tension between your career, ambition, love, family, and personal happiness - then this conversation will resonate with you.
