The conversation dives into the cultural expectations that lead to overfunctioning, how these beliefs impact relationships and why over-working becomes a stress management tool you probably don't even notice you're using.
• Discussing the overwhelming mental load women carry
• Societal expectations and the "good wife" stereotype
• The correlation between overfunctioning and self-worth
• Unpacking overfunctioning as a coping strategy for stress
• Challenging fears of being seen as demanding in relationships
• Introducing the Reset and Reconnect Program to help shift dynamics
Come check out Reset and Reconnect and see if this program feels right for you.
