70. Why High-Achieving Women Fear Their Desire
from The Balanced Leader: Merging Logic and Heart in Women's Leadership
What if the reason nothing is changing isn’t because you lack discipline, but because you’ve treated desire like it’s an optional nice-to-have? So many high-achieving women want more space, more influence, more alignment, more ease. And yet they postpone what they want, waiting for a crisis, a breakdown, or external pressure to justify change. We were taught to change when something is wrong, not because something inside of us wants more. But desire isn’t indulgent. It’s information. Tune in this week as I break down the difference between change driven by disgust or demand and change driven by desire. You’ll hear why desire is not a feeling but a decision, why high-achieving women often dampen their desire, and how to turn desire into a decision that reshapes your identity and your leadership.
