30 Jul 2025
What if success doesn't have to cost you everything? In this weeks episode, Heather sits down with author and entrepreneur Alyson Caffrey to talk about the unseen emotional labor of being "the strong one."

Together, they unpack what it really takes to shift out of burnout and into alignment, create systems that support rest, and redefine success on your own terms. In this episode, they discuss: 🩶 The hidden cost of tying your self-worth to productivity 🩶 What it really looks like to rest, recover, and still lead powerfully 🩶 How to grieve old identities while raising your standards If you're the one everyone leans on but you're secretly wondering who supports you—this episode will remind you of what you actually deserve.
