Today's episode is for every high-achieving woman who has ever felt torn between doing all the things and deeply wanting transformation. If that's you, then big hug. You are not alone.

I am beyond thrilled to welcome my friend Dr. Judith Borger to the podcast. From the emergency room to empowerment coaching, Judith knows firsthand what it's like to look like you have it all together while feeling that something deeper is calling you. Together, we dive into what happens when women create intentional space for healing, connection, and true growth.

In this episode, we explore:

• Why healing in community is so powerful, and how women rising together has always been the way.

• How high-achievers can break free from burnout and create a life of intention, not just obligation.

• The magic of retreats and why stepping away from the daily grind is sometimes the only way to find clarity.

• The role of nervous system regulation in transformation—because you cannot create lasting change from a state of overwhelm.

• Why joy is an act of resistance and how reclaiming what lights you up is more important now than ever.

We also talk about the Women's Empowerment and Leadership Retreat happening this April at Miraval (aka the most magical healing vortex of a place), where Judith and I will be leading transformational workshops together! But even if you can't join us in person, this episode is an invitation to ask yourself:

• When was the last time I prioritized my own healing and joy?

• What does my soul truly want, separate from what the world expects of me?

• Who are the women who make me feel seen, safe, and strong?
