Are you caught in the endless loop of doing, achieving, and proving yourself—yet still feeling unfulfilled? You’re not alone.
In this episode of No Cape Required, I sit down with coach and former corporate executive Zerina Derveni to explore a powerful shift: moving from constant performing to simply being.
We talk about why so many high-achieving women burn out chasing external validation—and how aligning with your core values allows you to lead and live with authenticity, confidence, and fulfillment.
Zerina shares her five-phase self-discovery journey that helps women unlearn old patterns, reconnect with their strengths, and step into lasting transformation. Along the way, we dig into:
-Why being yourself often attracts more success than endless doing.
-How EQ (emotional intelligence) creates clarity and deeper connections beyond IQ.
-The role of adaptability (AQ) in navigating change without losing yourself.
-Practical ways to identify your core values and use them as your decision-making compass.
If you’ve ever felt like you’re spinning your wheels, this conversation is your invitation to pause, reflect, and tap into the power of being.
👉 Share this episode with a friend who’s ready to ditch burnout and embrace authenticity—because success isn’t about doing it all, it’s about becoming who you really are.
