Show Notes
Overcommitment isn’t just a time issue — it’s a self-trust and worthiness issue. In this episode, I share how women, especially in midlife, find themselves stretched thin trying to be everything to everyone… and end up feeling invisible.
We’ll talk about:
- The sneaky ways we abandon ourselves in the name of being "helpful"
- Why dropping a commitment isn’t failure, it's listening to your inner guidance of what's really right for you
- How Human Design helps us know what to hold and what to release
- And a practice that became a non-negotiable for me
If you’re putting on everyone else’s oxygen mask first. This is your reminder to come back to yourself.
