Ep. 6 - Boobs, Besties, And The “Who Am I” Spiral

When was the last time you described something you did with the word "just" in front of it?I just raised my kids. I just managed the house. I just got through a really hard season.That word. That tiny, sneaky, completely devastating word. It's doing so much damage and I don't think you even notice when you're saying it anymore.Because here's the truth: you didn't just do anything. You have been building something for decades. You've been accumulating experience, resilience, wisdom, and perspective that most people would pay anything to have. And you've been treating it like a footnote.Not anymore. That's what today is about.In this episode we talk about:The voice that says who are you to be doing this — and why it's lying to you even when it sounds completely reasonableWhy wanting more for yourself is not selfish — and why that question underneath so much of what midlife women carry needs to be answered out loud once and for allThe real story behind "you can't pour from an empty vessel" — and why it's not just a coffee mug quoteWhat you've actually been building for the last 20 years that you've been completely dismissingThe specific skills you have right now that a 30-year-old literally cannot buy, borrow, or shortcut her way toThe who are you not to reframe — and why it changes everythingWhat happens in Not Done Yet Sessions when a woman finally hears someone say wait, can we go back to that — because what you just described is not a footnoteThe homework that's going to make you uncomfortable in the best possible wayCome hang out with me on Substack: https://substack.com/@rachelaperryGrab your free Not Done Yet Reset: rachelaperry.com/notdoneyetConnect with Rachel: Instagram — @rachelaperry TikTok — @rachelaperry Website — rachelaperry.comIf this episode hit home, share it with a midlife woman in your life who needs to hear it.
