Summary
Why do so many ambitious women still feel like they’re behind… even when they’re doing everything “right”? In this episode, I’m opening up about ambition, perfectionism, self-worth, productivity, purpose, burnout, and the pressure to constantly become “more.” After one very honest conversation sent me into a spiral about fulfillment and identity, I started questioning pretty much everything. Remy (my podcast engineer and beautiful friend) joins me to chat about the psychology behind high achievement, the emotional weight of never feeling like you’ve done enough, and where I might be looking for bandaids instead of going deeper. I also talk about: • perfectionism & fear of failure• burnout, ambition & identity• wanting more purpose & meaningful work• self-worth tied to achievement• the pressure to constantly be productive• taking action before feeling ready• building a life that actually feels fulfilling & more. I hope there’s something in this episode you needed (and if you feel identified, DM so we can chat. I’d literally love that). See you next week. xx SAY HI: follow Lisa on Instagram follow Lisa on TikTok follow Remy on Instagram listen to our confidence episode follow Unwineding on Instagram follow Unwineding on TikTok subscribe to Unwineding on Youtube shop Unwineding’s storefront Learn more about your ad choices.
