Is your work ethic secretly working against you?
When you're the person everyone relies on, it can feel impossible to say No — especially when it feels like your career, reputation, or relationships are on the line.

You take pride in being dependable and driven. But when that strength turns into an unspoken agreement to always do more, it can leave you overworked, under-appreciated, and resentful.

If you're tired of feeling stretched too thin — and ready to stop being the "go-to" person for everyone else’s workload — this episode is your turning point.

I’m sharing The Power Shift, a simple yet powerful technique to help you:

  • Recognize when your work ethic is being used against you
  • Set boundaries without guilt, fear, or confrontation
  • Reclaim your time, energy, and confidence — without risking your career

 Try The Power Shift Today:
Ask yourself these two transformational questions:

  1. Where have I been using my power to avoid conflict?
  2. How can I use that same power to take care of myself instead?

The Power Shift can create big results, but knowing how to apply it is key.
🎧 Tune in to hear how my client Lisa used this exact practice to break free from years of being overworked and undervalued, and how you can start doing the same thing.

✅ The hidden reason you keep getting more work (and how to change it)
 ✅ Why high-achievers and people pleasers struggle to set boundaries — especially after trauma
