Sacred & Sovereign

Why You’re Exhausted Even Though You Have Everything You Wanted

Elizabeth Brett

You’ve checked all the boxes. The beautiful home, the great partner, the healthy kids. On paper, your life looks amazing. So why do you feel so exhausted, depleted, and disconnected?

If you've ever found yourself thinking:

  • I should be happy… so why do I feel so drained?
  • I love my life, but I also feel so trapped in it.
  • I have no reason to complain, but something still feels off…

Then this episode of Sacred & Sovereign is for you.

I’m breaking down:

  • Why having everything you thought you wanted doesn’t always feel fulfilling
  • The invisible exhaustion that’s running your life (without you realizing it)
  • How to shift from depletion to overflow—without burning everything down

We’re diving into the mental load of modern women, the nervous system’s role in exhaustion, and the cultural conditioning that tells us self-sacrifice equals love. But here’s the truth:

A depleted woman is not a more loving woman.
A burned-out mother is not a better mother.
A woman who never prioritizes herself is not more worthy than one who does.

Tune in to hear:

  • the myth of "having it all"—and why it’s leaving women more exhausted than ever
  • why we can’t feel joy, even when we have everything we thought we wanted
  • the cultural conditioning that makes women feel guilty for prioritizing themselves
  • simple, doable shifts to move from exhaustion to deep, sustainable nourishment

If you’ve been feeling like something is missing, this conversation will help you reclaim your energy, redefine success, and step into a version of your life that actually feels good.
