Addicted to Chaos: Why High Achievers Struggle to Slow Down


Listen Later

What if your drive wasn’t ambition—but addiction?

In this raw and revelatory episode, Gia sits down with keynote speaker, business coach, and bestselling author Kim Rogne to unpack the hidden reason so many high-achieving women can’t slow down—even when they know they need to. From CEO of a multi-million-dollar real estate brokerage to founder of For the Love Of, Kim shares how a ski accident forced her to finally pause—and face the identity she'd been performing for decades.

Together, they explore:

  • The “fixer” identity and why so many women can’t stop rescuing

  • How busyness becomes a coping mechanism—and an addiction

  • The lie of balance and what it really means to live in alignment

  • What it takes to rewrite your success story after burnout

  • Kim’s bold move from hustle to harmony—and how you can make the shift too

    If you’ve been moving at full speed and still feel like it’s never enough, this conversation will stop you in your tracks—in the best way.
