In this special episode of The Alchemy Lab, I’m sharing something really close to my heart—a live webinar I hosted called How I Went from Capable (but Exhausted) to the Main Character of My Life. This one is for every woman who’s ever said “It’s fine, I’ve got it” while secretly running on empty.

I open up about my personal journey from burnout and hustle culture to redefining success on my own terms. If you've ever felt stuck in the loop of perfectionism, people-pleasing, and chasing a version of success that doesn’t feel like your own, this episode is your permission slip to break free.

Here's what we dive into:

• The Capable One Trap: Why doing it all doesn't mean doing what’s right for you—and how to start letting go of the pressure to be everything to everyone.

• Signs You’re the Supporting Character in Your Own Life: From burnout to brute-forcing your way through the day, how to spot when it’s time to shift.

• What Main Character Energy Really Means: It’s not about being in the spotlight—it’s about being seen, heard, and aligned with what you truly want.

• My Four-Phase Framework for Transformation: I break down my signature method—Burn It Down, The Messy Middle, Create Rituals, and Activate Main Character Energy—to help you build a life you actually want to live.

And yes, I talk about my new six-week one-on-one offer that’s all about helping you embody this shift. If you’re ready to stop white-knuckling your way through the day and start living with intention, this one’s for you.

Let’s start showing up as the version of ourselves we’re proud of—not the one we think the world expects.

In today’s episode, I’m diving into the topic of breaking free from the "capable one" trap. I’m sharing my own journey of learning that just because I can do it all doesn’t mean I should. This shift has been transformational in my personal and professional life, and I know it can be for you too. If you're someone who's always been praised for being the one who "does it all," it’s time to redefine what success and productivity mean.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why being the “capable one” can be a trap – I share my personal experience of feeling overwhelmed despite being praised for being able to do everything.

• How hyper-independence is sabotaging your happiness – We dive into the psychology behind why many of us struggle to ask for help and how that leads to burnout.

• 5 actionable tips to start letting go of the “do it all” mindset – From taking an inventory of what you’re carrying to setting boundaries and learning to say no without guilt, I’ve got practical steps to help you release the weight.

• How to rebuild your identity beyond “doing it all” – Discover how to live a life that’s grounded in who you are, not just what you can handle.

• Free Workshop on July 15th – How I went from being the “capable but exhausted” one to the main character of my life.

In today’s episode of The Alchemy Lab, I’m share what it’s like to live two different lives—working a full-time job while building my dream business. If you're juggling your 9-5 job and a side hustle (or trying to grow your business while being a mom), this episode is for you. I’ll share my personal journey, the challenges I face, and how I’m managing to stay aligned with my vision for my business, even while working a full-time job.

I talk about how I sometimes feel like two different people, trying to balance my professional self with my entrepreneurial self, and how I’m trying to live a “softer life” with fewer boxes to check, but still show up in a way that’s aligned with my long-term goals.

In this episode, I cover:

• The emotional and mental challenges of balancing a 9-5 job with running a business

• How I’m navigating the tension between working for someone else and building my own dream

• Why I’m grateful for my full-time job, despite my dream to go full-time in my business

• The struggle of imposter syndrome when you’re building a business while working a 9-5

• How I’m learning to embrace a life with fewer pressures and fewer “boxes” to check, while still showing up for both my job and my business

I’ll also share some actionable tips and mindset shifts I’ve been using to stay focused, aligned with my vision, and motivated while working a 9-5 and building my dream business on the side.
