If you’ve ever caught yourself thinking, “How did I end up responsible for all of this?”—this episode is for you.

Today, executive coach Shelisa Bainbridge is sharing the coaching conversation she’s been having over and over again—with women who don’t even know each other but sound like they work at the same company.

They’re high-performing leaders, getting results, and burning out quietly under the weight of invisible expectations.

In this powerful episode of Go Off Script, Shelisa shares:

• The personal story that helped her realize she never struggled with saying no (and why)
• Why boundaries don’t make you less of a team player—they make you a better one
• The three emotional blocks that make it hard to say no
• What to do if you’re losing clarity and focus under the weight of too much

You’ll leave this episode with practical strategies to protect your time, realign to your purpose, and lead on your own terms.

Because when you’re clear on what matters most—you create the space and energy to show up fully for your team.
