In this heart-opening conversation, Diana is joined once again by transformational life coach and writer Carolina Sizemore to explore the inner work required to move beyond perfectionism and reconnect with self-worth.

Together, they unpack the hidden impact of childhood expectations, nervous system dysregulation, and self-sabotage—and how high-achieving women can begin to release the pressure to prove themselves. If you've ever struggled to feel proud of yourself unless you're performing or achieving, this episode is a loving invitation to rewrite the story.

* How high performers abandon themselves in pursuit of external validation
