What's new?

Let me guess.
You’re tired, but you still get up.
You’re overwhelmed, but you keep pushing.
You’re “fine” because stopping feels worse than continuing.

I know this space well. Most of us do.

Burnout rarely shows up with flashing lights and a formal introduction. It sneaks in quietly. First as exha...

I remember the first time a client said to me,
“I left. Why does it feel worse now?”

Manipulation Has a Way of Sneaking In

Here’s the thing about manipulation. It rarely kicks the door down and announces itself.
