77: Over and Under Reacting: Why Your Reactions Might Be Off

Welcome to Inner Work with MaryAnn Walker—the podcast for empaths, highly sensitive women, and recovering people pleasers who are ready to stop living on autopilot and start reconnecting with who they really are. I work with women—often in midlife—who are emotionally exhausted from constantly meeting everyone else’s needs while ignoring their own. They’ve spent years in roles like caretaker, partner, parent, or professional, and now they’re waking up to the truth that they don’t really know themselves outside of those roles. They’re struggling with burnout, people-pleasing, compassion fatigue, unclear boundaries, and the overwhelming pressure to be everything for everyone. If that sounds like you, you’re not broken—and you’re not alone. As a certified life coach who specializes in supporting highly sensitive&nbsp; women, I’ll guide you through tools and practices to help you:<ul><li>Set healthy, sustainable boundaries without guilt</li><li>Reclaim your energy and emotional well-being</li><li>Build deeper, more authentic connections without abandoning yourself</li><li>Learn how to process emotions rather than getting stuck in them</li><li>Remember who you are beneath all the roles you've played</li><li> </li></ul>Every week, I’ll share personal stories, practical strategies, and powerful mindset shifts to help you stop surviving and start living—with clarity, confidence, and compassion. If you're ready to come home to yourself, hit subscribe and let’s begin your inner work.
