Dear boss babe — you made it through 2025!!

This episode is the reminder your nervous system has been asking for.

This is not a lecture. This is a pep talk — the kind you listen to when you’re ambitious, tired, emotionally aware, and done pretending hustle culture is sustainable.

I’m speaking directly to the high achiever who’s been pushing through burnout, ignoring her body, and second-guessing herself even while making progress. I’m sharing the mindset shifts I learned while juggling a nine-to-five, building a brand, growing a team, fundraising, and protecting my mental health in the middle of it all.

This episode is about real self care, listening to your energy, and allowing yourself to evolve without guilt.

Why you can’t outwork a disregulated nervous system

How burnout shows up as information — not failure

Why rest is a system and a strategy, not something you earn

The truth about boundaries, delegation, and self-respect

Why wanting more doesn’t make you ungrateful

How reinvention doesn’t require permission — only a decision

And why small, imperfect steps matter more than drastic changes

✨ If this pep talk hit home, share it with a fellow boss babe who needs encouragement
