1. The Funeral: The Day I Decided Corporate Was Dead to Me ☠️

In the opening episode of Corporate Girl Funeral, Estelle Polevoy pulls back the curtain on the identities women wear to survive; and succeed; inside the corporate system… and why keeping them on is often the very thing holding them back.Estelle shares the real behind-the-scenes of exiting her 9–5 and matching her corporate income within months, while working significantly less and becoming more present with her children. No burn-out hustle. No perfect plan. Just full commitment, clean boundaries, aligned strategy and a refusal to keep performing a version of success that felt hollow.This episode names the most common masks high-achieving women unconsciously adopt; the Superwoman, the Corporate Clone, the Perfectionist, and the Dabbler and exposes how each one quietly kills creativity, self-trust, and momentum, even while it looks “successful” on paper.With her signature blend of strategy, identity work, and straight-talk, Estelle reframes rest as a rebellion, boundaries as non-negotiable, and clarity as something you earn through movement; not overthinking.If you’re still playing the role of the “good corporate girl,” building something on the side but never fully backing yourself, or feeling the quiet pull toward more this episode is the beginning of the funeral.This episode marks the end of self-abandonment. And the beginning of building life on your own terms.
