If choosing yourself still feels selfish or unsafe, it's not a mindset issue—it's an identity one. In this episode, we unpack why first-gen, high-achieving women often stall not because they lack clarity—but because they're unconsciously disqualifying themselves from the life they deeply desire. If you've ever felt resistance toward making big, aligned decisions, this episode is the permission slip and reframe you've been craving.

Why you should listen: • Shift from Survival to Self-Trust: Understand why your nervous system resists ease and joy—and how to move from self-sacrifice to self-leadership. • Heal Identity Conflicts: Learn how internalized roles (like the "good daughter" or "the strong one") sabotage your next-level decisions and growth. • Normalize Your Evolution: Discover why choosing alignment may look like rebellion in your family or culture—and why that's part of your healing. • Implement Practical Identity Anchoring: Walk away with 3 powerful tools to help you embody your future self in real time.

If you're stuck between the life you have and the one you can't stop dreaming about, this episode will help you see that your vision isn't just possible—it's already yours. You just need to start identifying as her.
