227 | The Invisible Corset: Releasing the Pressure to Be Perfect, Polished, and Palatable

Have you ever felt like you're holding your breath in your business—striving to be more polished, more perfect, more palatable?

In this deeply personal episode, I share a dream that became a metaphor for something I've seen in countless women entrepreneurs: the invisible corset—the internalized pressure to shrink, perform, and self-contain.

You'll learn how this unconscious tightening cuts off your creative flow, silences your intuition, and leaves you feeling breathless in your business and life—and how to begin loosening its grip.

If you've ever felt exhausted by the weight of expectations or unsure how to lead with your full feminine power, this episode is your invitation to pause, breathe, and reclaim the space your soul has been craving.

This is more than a podcast. It's a permission slip. Let's unlace the corset. Together.
