How High-Achieving Moms Can Cure Burnout & Stop "Should-ing" Themselves | Dr. Colleen | Ep 13
Are you a high-achieving woman stuck in the "perfectionism trap"? In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Colleen Georges, psychologist, Rutgers professor, and TEDx speaker, to uncover why so many moms and entrepreneurs are burning out.
We dive deep into the toxic culture of the "shoulds," the fear of saying no, and the exact daily habits you need to reclaim your time. From dealing with identity crises to the power of time-blocking, Dr. Colleen provides a masterclass on how to "rescript" the stories holding you back. If you feel overwhelmed, this is your permission slip to let go of control and remember: it’s okay not to be okay.
