In this episode, I break down the real reason you feel confused in dating and relationships: capacity. Not chemistry, not intensity — capacity. We talk regulation, consistency, repair, and how to tell if someone can actually hold you on their average days, not just their best ones.

In this episode, Christina is breaking down why high achievers struggle to be present and how constantly rushing into the future keeps us from experiencing the life we’re actually building. If you’ve been feeling stuck in “what’s next,” this is your reminder to slow down, appreciate what is, and create space to actually feel your life again.

If grabbing your phone the moment you start driving has become second nature, you might be avoiding something important.

In this episode of Mindset Bytes, therapist & high-achiever coach Christina Rogers explores what happens when people label your standards as “too high” — and why they’re probably wrong.

We talk about the difference between unrealistic expectations and refusing to settle. As high achievers, we’re told to lower our standards to avoid disappointment — in love, business, friendships, and life decisions.

But what if your “high standards” are actually self-respect, clarity, and alignment?

Inside, we explore:

• The myth of “you're being too picky”

• Why high-achievers experience more friction when they hold boundaries

• How to know whether a “no” is actually protecting your future

• Why patience, alignment, and full-body yes decisions matter

• Filtering advice based on who it's coming from

If you've ever wondered whether you’re asking for too much — this episode reminds you:

You’re not asking for too much. You're asking the wrong people.

• The nervous system’s role in your craving for real presence
