Summary

**TOP 5% globally ranked podcast — the go-to podcast for high-achieving corporate women ready to set boundaries and finally achieve work-life balance.

You hit every target. You lead the team, carry the household, answer the late-night email — and everyone thinks you've got it handled.

They don't see the part where you're disappearing.

Somewhere between every "yes," every "I've got it," every "sure, I can take that on" — you traded pieces of yourself away until you barely recognize the woman running your life.

You feel it at 10pm, when the house finally goes quiet and one question slips out before you can stop it — is this all there is?

I'm so glad you're here, friend.

This podcast will help you create boundaries, restore your energy, and find clarity so you can pursue your passions without sacrificing yourself. Together, we'll explore practical systems, leadership strategies, and resilience tools to help you thrive in both business and life.

Hey, I'm Raquel Ita — a corporate leader, a woman of faith, and someone who gave herself away one yes at a time until she barely recognized her own life. I learned the difference between giving yourself away and giving on purpose — and that's the work we do here.

I ran on empty for years, overextended and stretched thin, until I realized the cost of "having it all" was losing myself. What changed? I learned that with the right values, boundaries, and systems, you can build a life of impact without burning out. Now I help burned-out, high-achieving corporate women set boundaries, reclaim their time, and lead from intention instead of fear.

If you're ready to finally reclaim your time, restore your energy, and step into your true identity as a leader at home and at work — this podcast is for you. You'll hear stories, strategies, and encouragement designed for women like you: high achievers, visionaries, and leaders who want freedom, recognition, and legacy.

You don't lose yourself by giving too much — you lose yourself by giving for the wrong reasons. Getting yourself back means learning to say yes on purpose.

You don't have to figure it out alone anymore.

    28: Don’t Quit Cold Turkey: Healing Your Identity Before You Leave Corporate with Holly Powell (Part 2)
    3 Nov 2026

    Thinking about leaving corporate? Don't quit cold turkey. In Part 2 of this conversation, Holly Powell shares the text message that showed up two months after her "meets expectations" review, the rock bottom she hit three months after leaving her corporate job, and what she wishes she'd done before she made the move: get clear on what's calling you, prepare, put God at the center, and find your people. Whether you're leaving or staying, you'll walk away with one question to answer this week. If this helped, hit follow, share it with a friend, and leave a written review.

    27: Coping Isn’t the Answer: How to Know If You Need Rest or a New Career w/ Holly Powell (Part 1)
    27 Oct 2026

    Have you ever given everything to your job and still been told you were just "fine"? Holly Powell spent more than twenty years in corporate leadership with Home Depot and Lowe's. Her boss told her she was next in line for promotion, then her annual review came back "meets expectations." In Part 1 of this two-part conversation, Holly shares the moment she realized she didn't know who she was outside her job, why working harder didn't matter, and three clues for telling whether you need rest, a boundary, or a whole new path. Part 2 drops next Tuesday, so hit follow, and if this helped, share it with a friend and leave a written review.

    26: Stress Is Why You’re Stuck: The 2-Minute Test That Shows What Actually Calms Your Body with Alexis Read
    20 Oct 2026

    Ever feel like you’re running on empty, foggy, tense, and short with the people you love, even though “nothing is really wrong”? Your body may be setting a boundary you haven’t set yet.

    In this episode, I sit down with Alexis Read, a former dancer and owner of a strength training studio in Oakland, California. She has spent 30+ years helping women rebuild strength and trust in their bodies. Alexis explains how everyday stress (back-to-back meetings, time pressure, poor sleep, endless scrolling) quietly pushes your nervous system into “war mode,” and why that makes change feel impossible no matter how hard you try.

    Then she walks us through two tools, live, that you can use between meetings:

    ✨ The Pause Breath: a simple breathing reset that’s gentler than box breathing ✨ The 20/20/20 Vision Reset: look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds to calm your whole system

    In this episode:

    • Why brain fog can be a sign you’re stuck in fight-or-flight
    • How small daily stresses add up until your body treats them like real danger
    • Why guilt about “not doing enough” is a nervous system issue, not a willpower issue
    • Alexis’s “test, don’t guess” method for checking whether a tool actually works for YOUR body
    • A 2-minute reset you can do at your desk
