What if the problem isn’t that you’re not a high achiever, but that you’ve never learned to recognize yourself as one?

In this episode, we unpack a question that quietly devastates many high-performing women: “What if I’m not actually doing enough?” Through real clinical moments, shared personal insight, and a metaphor you won’t forget, we explore how anxiety, attachment, and identity distort self-perception—and why so many women settle for survival instead of nourishment.

We talk about:

• Why high-achieving women don’t see their own competence

• How anxiety convinces you to stay invisible and over-function

• The mental load women carry that goes unseen and uncelebrated

• Why meaningful healing requires openness, trust, and real investment

This episode also offers a candid look at what actually happens in restorative retreats, intensive therapy, and transformational spaces—and why they work when nothing else has.

And yes—the wine metaphor is real. During this conversation, Heidi was sipping on a tasteful glass of: Dog Point Section 94 Sauvignon Blanc (New Zealand): intentional, layered, and meant to be savored—not chugged. A reminder that your nervous system, your healing, and your life deserve more than the boxed version.

If you’re leading, building, caring deeply, and quietly exhausted—this conversation is your invitation to stop settling and start choosing what actually changes your life.

Come curious. Leave grounded. Stay a little sassy.
