Am I only worthy when I’m winning?

I had a moment this week.
One of those raw, honest, tearful ones.

After launching my podcast…
After pouring months into coaching, content, and connection...
I crashed.

Emotionally. Physically. Energetically.

My body got sick.
My mind spiralled into doubt.
Podcast interviews got rescheduled, which I was so excited about.

I thought:
“Why can’t I keep going?”
“Why am I feeling so unstable?”

Then, during a call with a phenomenal coach, James, we uncovered something huge 👇

Not a productivity issue.
Not a strategy gap.
Not a mindset block.

But a deep-rooted belief:
➡️ “I’m only worthy when I’m winning.”

That hit like a punch to the chest.

A belief shaped by childhood messages.
A belief that’s been silently driving my every move.
A belief that rewards burnout and punishes rest.

Here’s the truth I’m stepping into now:
✨ My worth is not tied to my wins.
✨ My energy matters more than my effort.
✨ Self-love creates sustainable success.

James reminded me:
“People don’t feel your plan.
They feel your energy.”

That’s the shift.
From fear ➝ to love.
From proving ➝ to trusting.
From pressure ➝ to peace.

And I want to bring you with me on this journey.

Because maybe you’ve felt it too?
The guilt when you rest.
The panic when you pause.
The shame when you’re not “on.”

If any of that resonates, this week’s podcast is for you. 🎧
I’m sharing the full, unfiltered conversation.

There, we explore:
how fear can disguise itself as “logic,”
why your kids don’t need you to be perfect, just present,
and how bravery looks more like messy action than polished plans.

Let this be your permission slip to slow down.
To feel.
To breathe.

You're not behind.
You're healing.
And that's the bravest work of all.
