EP001 | The Problem with Being the Capable One


Listen Later

I spent over a decade being the one everyone counted on. Climbed from temp scanner to VP of Operations by saying yes to every problem, every late night, every request. I wore "hardest working girl in the room" like a badge of honor.

And it worked. Until it didn't.

This is my Day 1. A re-introduction after stepping away for almost two years because I realized I couldn't keep coaching business in a silo when the real work was the whole person.

In this episode I'm getting into:

  • Why being the capable one eventually becomes a trap - the better you perform, the more gets piled on
  • The moment I realized I was hanging on a Kobe quote just to get through my day
  • 4 questions I started asking myself before committing to anything - these changed everything for my boundaries
  • Why you don't need more effort, you need to upgrade your operating system

You haven't lost your edge. You've outgrown the way you've been operating. That's not a character flaw. That's a logistics problem.
