What happens when you realize the life you built… isn’t actually yours?In this empowering episode, I sit down with Kathleen Conner, coach and creator of the Box-Breaking Method, to explore the journey of waking up, breaking free, and reclaiming the life you were meant to live.For decades, Kathleen was the reliable one—the fixer, the helper, the woman who carried everyone else’s needs on her shoulders. But at 53, a single moment changed everything: out of breath while rushing to help a neighbor, she realized she had spent a lifetime serving everyone but herself.💡 In this episode, we dive deep into:• How societal labels like “good wife” or “perfect mother” quietly box women into roles that erase their true identity• What happens when you succeed outwardly but feel empty internally• How emotional baselines shape our relationships, reactions, and self-worth• The hidden cost of people-pleasing and seeking validation• Stories of women who transformed their lives with the Box-Breaking Method• Why small daily shifts—just 1% better—create massive long-term change• The importance of boundaries, self-care, and carving out space for your own happiness• Kathleen’s perspective on purpose, legacy, and the self-discovery journey beyond this lifetimeKathleen’s candor is a powerful reminder that it is never too late to choose yourself. Her story invites all of us—especially women who’ve spent years taking care of others—to look inward and ask:“What do I truly want… and when will I allow myself to have it?”If you’ve ever felt trapped in expectations, exhausted from over-giving, or ready to rewrite your story, this conversation will give you the inspiration and tools to begin your own box-breaking journey.#womensempowerment #selfdiscoveryjourney #BreakTheBox #personalgrowthcoach #reclaimyourlife Connect with Kathleeen:Website: www.chasingpurpose.com/Facebook: Connect with us:Website: www.happinessexplored.comInstagram: differentfacetsofhappinessTikTok: Different Facets of HappinessEmail: [email protected]:The content shared on this podcast is for informational and entertainment purposes only and is not intended as a substitute for professional medical, mental health, legal, or financial advice.
