About... Why Burnout Hits First Generation Women So Hard (with Dr. Phebe Brako)

What happens when you stop and ask yourself, "Who is this all for?"

Friend this one is a THERAPY SESSION with Dr. Phebe Brako, a licensed therapist supporting immigrants and individuals of the Global Majority to heal, grow, and build homes away from home.

We Chat About: The difference between stress, burnout, and actual trauma Why so many high-achieving women feel unsafe slowing down How immigrant and first-generation women learn to over-perform for survival Parenting differently than you were parented and the emotions that come with it The guilt many women feel around rest, pleasure, and spending money on themselves

We also get into the emotional reality of being “the strong one,” the accidental breadwinner, the high performer everyone depends on… while secretly feeling exhausted, anxious, and terrified of slowing down.

And honestly? This chat challenged me personally in ways I WASN'T expecting.

If you’ve ever felt like you had to earn your place in every room you walk into… If resting makes you uncomfortable… If success still somehow doesn’t feel like enough… ... This chat is going to hit hard in the best possible way.
