Use This as a Cautionary Tale: Over-Giving, Stress, and Crawling Out of the Lows EP 45
This episode is a vulnerable reflection on one of the lowest chapters of my life—2017 through 2019—when over-giving, over-doing, and self-abandonment left me exhausted, lonely, and numbing with wine.
I unpack the limiting beliefs and stress responses that kept me stuck, and share the small but powerful steps that helped me crawl out of the lows: therapy, quitting drinking, movement, journaling, and curiosity.
If you’ve ever felt like you’re drowning under expectations or coping patterns, use this story as a cautionary tale—and as proof that it’s possible to reclaim self-trust, resilience, and peace
