Back to EpisodesPowerback 246: How Self-Abandonment Shows Up in High Achieving Women
Description
You’re the one people count on. The finisher. The fixer. The high-achieving woman who gets shit done. But underneath the polished surface, are you quietly running on empty?
In this Powerback® episode, LauraAura pulls back the curtain on a powerful (and painful) truth: many high-achieving women are operating from a place of chronic self-abandonment. From overriding your intuition to pushing through exhaustion, people-pleasing, and never celebrating your wins—these patterns might be costing you more than you realize.
This is your wake-up call to stop putting yourself at the end of the line and start reclaiming your connection to you.
What you’ll learn in this episode:
- The 6 most common patterns of self-abandonment among high achievers
- How to recognize and interrupt these cycles in real time
- Why prioritizing yourself isn’t selfish—it’s essential
- A simple shift that can help you build real, sustainable success
You can be the badass, goal-getting woman and deeply care for yourself. It’s not either/or—it’s both.
