Episode 10: Toxic Work Culture – Breaking the Hustle Loop

Episode Description In this episode of Standing In Your Truth, we’re unpacking toxic work culture and the quiet ways hustle culture keeps us stuck in survival mode. From being rewarded for overworking to navigating difficult colleagues and unclear boundaries, many of us learn to equate burnout with success. The praise, the promotions, the productivity — they can keep us trapped in a loop that slowly disconnects us from ourselves. We talk about: * The hidden cost of hustle culture * How toxic dynamics show up on teams * Why high performers are often the most vulnerable to burnout * The nervous system impact of chronic overdrive * Practical ways to protect your energy without sacrificing your ambition If you’ve ever felt like you’re succeeding on paper but exhausted underneath — this conversation is for you. Standing in your truth sometimes means redefining what success looks like and choosing sustainability over self-abandonment.

Episode 9 The Fourth Trimester: Becoming Mom (and Dad)

They tell you to get ready for the baby — the nursery, the car seat, the onesies. But no one really tells you to get ready for yourself. For the person you’ll become after the birth. For the tears that come out of nowhere — for both mom and dad. For the loneliness that sneaks in even when you’re surrounded by love. For the pressure to “get back” to your old life when deep down, you know… you’ll never be the same. This podcast is the conversation I wish someone had with me before motherhood — the one that doesn’t sugarcoat the baby blues, the expectations, or the chaos of finding your new rhythm. We’ll talk about birth stories that didn’t go as planned, nights that broke us open, and the slow, sacred rebuilding of who we are now. It’s not all heavy — there’s laughter, hope, and a lot of TMI along the way — because healing happens when we stop pretending and start telling the truth.
