🎙️ Episode 5: The Cost of Corporate F*ckery
Welcome to Corporate F*ckery stories of survival, psychological warfare, and choosing what’s best for you. I’m Lauren DeGolia; certified success coach, subconscious strategist, astrologer, and former corporate insider turned truth-teller.
This episode is for the high-achieving woman who’s starting to wonder if the life she built… is actually costing her the one she wants.
We’re talking about the hidden cost of corporate life, not just your time, but your presence, your peace, your power.
In this episode:
A powerful listener story that exposes the guilt of slowing down
Survival mode vs. burnout and how we confuse the two
What your 6-figure salary is really worth (and what it’s stealing)
The soul cost of pinky promises and self-abandonment
Why mindset isn’t enough when your nervous system is in survival
10+ tools to untangle your calendar from your conditioning
This isn’t about quitting your job.
It’s about waking up to what’s no longer sustainable and choosing something better.
Because when you choose what’s best for you,
you don’t just change your life, you change the whole damn system.
🔧 The Untangling Toolkit: 10 Tools to Reclaim Your Time, Energy & Peace
1. Track your hours
Start auditing your reality. Where is your time actually going? Awareness is step one.
2. Micro-sabotage the machine
End meetings 10 minutes early. Don’t answer that Slack immediately. Disrupt the default patterns you’ve been trained into.
3. Rebellious rest
Put “nervous system reset” in your calendar and treat it like it’s your boss’s birthday. Rest on purpose.
4. Flip your calendar
Schedule your life first. Then fit work around it. Even if it’s just one personal thing per week, start there.
5. Reverse ROI
Ask: “Is this giving me peace or points? Presence or panic?” Let that guide your yeses and nos.
6. The Jane Protocol
Before saying yes, ask: If I just received a life-altering diagnosis, would this still matter?
7. 5-minute ritual break
Music. Movement. Breath. Clear your energy like you clear your inbox. Try EFT tapping, a walk, or a guided meditation.
8. Don’t let this harden you
Let it show you where your choices need to change. Self-preservation is leadership.
9. Fantasize on repeat
Imagine how you’d love your day to feel, from start to finish. Then gamify it. Practice living it, not just surviving it.
10. Talk to your future self
She already figured this out. Ask her what she knows. Need help connecting? That’s my specialty.
