207. When Everything Feels Like an Obligation

Do you ever find yourself saying yes to something you don't actually want to do, simply because you feel like you should? That invitation, request, or expectation can quickly feel like a requirement, leaving you exhausted, resentful, and disconnected from what you actually want. Why does this happen, and how can we navigate it without guilt taking over?   In this episode, I explore the difference between invitations, expectations, and obligations, and why so many high-achieving women blur these lines. I share how obligation quietly creeps in, turning optional things into mandatory tasks, and how that affects your time, energy, and peace of mind. This isn't about saying no to everything. It's about making intentional choices that align with your values, rather than defaulting to what you think you should do.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://carriehollandmd.com/207   Follow me on Facebook and Instagram: https://www.facebook.com/carriehollandmd https://www.instagram.com/carriehollandmd/
