High achievement is often worn like a badge of honor, but there is a dark side. Joining us today on the podcast is TEDx speaker and Trauma-Informed Transformative Coach helping High-Achieving and High-Functioning women, Sunitha Sandeep. Today, we dive deeper into the dark side of high achievement, the 5-P Pentagon that women must navigate, and mindset changes to feel less burnout and more peace.


Today we discuss…


  • The dark side of high achievement
  • Can modern women actually have it all?
  • How can you know what “all” means to you
  • Shame, guilt, and comparison with others
  • Shifting from outside focus to internal focus of what you really want
  • The “5-P Pentagon”: Profession, Partner, Parent, Passion, and Purpose
  • Mindset changes that must happen in order to find peace when being pulled in all directions
  • Tapping into your core emotions
  • Not feeling grateful and then feeling guilt and shame about it
  • Giving yourself compassion above all else and getting curious about emotions instead of trying to escape them
  • The pressure to “do” even when trying to cope with burnout, stress, and overwhelm
  • Stuck energy within your body and learning to release it
  • How to use boundaries and practices to develop trust within yourself
