Success should not require you to override your body, ignore your values, or push past your limits just to prove you’re capable.

In this solo episode, we challenge hustle culture without swinging into passivity or guilt. Because success isn’t just something you achieve — it’s something you have to sustain.

We’re unpacking:

• How ambition quietly turns into self-betrayal
• The hidden cost of always “pushing through”
• Why consistency should feel like integrity, not exhaustion
• What aligned effort actually feels like in real life

This conversation is especially for high-achieving women and entrepreneurs who feel the pressure to keep going… even when their nervous system, capacity, and values are asking for something different.

There comes a point where holding it together becomes heavier than letting it out.

In this solo episode, I’m sharing a moment from a recent mentorship space where the room was filled with unspoken weight — women carrying responsibilities, expectations, grief, pressure… and trying to keep smiling through it.

Then something shifted.

A simple prayer gave us permission to release — to cry, to exhale, to admit we’re tired of being strong all the time.

This episode is for the woman who keeps pushing, keeps producing, keeps showing up… while quietly holding everything in.

You don’t have to carry it alone.

And sometimes the most healing thing you can do… is let it out.

We talk about:

• Why high-functioning women suppress emotion

• What happens in the body when we don’t release

• The spiritual + emotional permission to cry

• How release creates regulation and clarity

• Why tears are not weakness — they’re processing

If you’ve been holding it in… this is your permission moment.

This isn’t a restart. It’s a return on purpose and on my own timing. In this welcome back episode, I share why I stepped away, what rest taught me, and how I’m choosing to show up differently in this next season.

This episode is a gentle welcome back, not an apology and not an explanation, but a reflection.

After taking time to slow down, reset, and recalibrate, I’m returning to the podcast with more clarity, intention, and grounded wisdom. In this episode, I talk about why rest can look like inconsistency to others, how pressure and productivity culture can distort our pace, and why choosing your own timing is an act of self-respect.

If you’ve ever felt guilty for slowing down, questioned your motivation, or felt rushed to show up before you were ready, this episode is for you.

This season isn’t about doing more. It’s about doing what matters on purpose.

🎧 New episodes are coming with deeper conversations around rest, boundaries, nervous system regulation, and sustainable success.

What if burnout was the beginning of your breakthrough?

In this episode of The Self-Care SHE-EO Podcast, we sit down with the founder of Sun of a Vegan — a restaurant owner whose journey started with exhaustion from social work and a simple vegan fast that changed her life.

What began as a way to reset turned into a raw-food journey, a surge of creativity, and a series of divine opportunities that led to her first vendor event and eventually her thriving restaurant. She also opens up about learning to set boundaries, release perfectionism, and find freedom through rest, faith, and food.

✨ Tune in to hear how burnout, boundaries, and a bold step of faith became the recipe for purpose and success.

Why do so many women struggle to name their strengths? It’s not because we don’t have them—it’s because somewhere along the way, we were taught to downplay them. Maybe you were told being outspoken made you “bossy.” Maybe being detail-oriented meant you were “too picky.” Or maybe shame crept in and whispered, “Don’t brag. Don’t shine too bright.”

In this solo episode, I’m breaking down:

✨ The root causes that keep women from owning their strengths

✨ How shame and fear block us from embracing our true identity

✨ Practical tools to help you identify and reclaim your strengths

✨ Why naming your strength is not arrogance—it’s assignment

If you can’t name your strength, you can’t use it. And the world needs you using it.
