Episode Synopsis
🎙️ Episode 10: The Weight We Carry – Why Defeat Hits Different at Forty
In this heartfelt episode, we get real about the emotional toll of juggling it all—especially when you're deep in your 40s and still trying to be everything for everyone.
What we talk about:
💔 Doing It All, Yet Still Not Enough
We dive into the invisible weight so many women carry—doing all the things and still wondering, “Am I doing enough?” That nagging guilt and self-doubt hit different in this season of life.
⏩ From Pause to Warp Speed: Post-Pandemic Whiplash
Remember the calm (and chaos) of the Covid slowdown? We talk about the jarring shift from stillness to being back in full-throttle mode—and how exhausting that transition has been physically and emotionally.
