We need to talk about the lie a whole generation of women was sold.
You know the one. Do it all. Need no one. Build the business, raise the kids, keep the house together, stay ambitious, stay grateful, never rest, never ask for help and somehow call that “having it all.”
In this episode, I’m officially dropping out of boss babe culture.
Not because I don’t want more. But because I’m done building a life that feels heavy, exhausting, and unsustainable. We’re talking about how “strong woman” quietly became “burned out woman,” how independence turned into isolation, and why so many of us are successful on paper but exhausted in real life.
I share what it looked like when I was doing everything alone, the quiet burnout that followed, and how choosing support, community, and a simpler way of building changed not just my business, but my nervous system, my relationships, and my actual quality of life.
If you’re tired of glorifying exhaustion, tired of carrying everything alone, and ready to build a life that actually feels good instead of just looks good, this one’s for you.
You don’t need a gold star for being tired. You don’t have to do this alone anymore.
And if you want more support, more tools, and more ways to build your life and business without burning yourself into the ground, you can find more with me at Jessicalewan.com.
