Lena shares her journey from a high-performing career in tech to a deeper understanding of how her drive was shaped by early life experiences. Raised in a difficult environment, she learned to excel as a way to gain control, validation, and safety. This conversation is especially important for women in business, midlife women, leaders, and high achievers who may not realize the emotional cost of constantly striving. We talk about what happens when success becomes a coping mechanism, why so many women struggle to slow down, and what it really takes to redefine success later in life. * How perfectionism and high achievement can be survival strategies * The hidden emotional cost of overperformance * Why high-achieving women often feel pressure, even after success * The connection between trauma, control, and productivity * How to begin redefining success in midlife * What it means to reconnect with who you are beyond your accomplishments If you are a woman who has always pushed yourself to succeed, this episode may change how you see your journey.
