from The Woman Empire Project · host Peta-Lea Brenda
If you have ever felt like you are just getting through the day, not really living, just surviving, this episode is going to feel like someone finally put words to what you have been carrying.This week I am sitting down with Pam Espin, licensed therapist, speaker, author, and founder of Beyond Purpose Therapy. Pam has spent eleven years working with women in the mental health space and what she kept seeing was the same pattern — strong, capable, driven women stuck in a cycle of burnout, recovery, and burnout again.So she wrote the book Not Built to Break. And today she is sharing the wisdom from those pages directly with you.In this episode we cover:The unconscious rules that are quietly running your life — and how to recognise themWhy self-sabotage might not actually be about fear of failure at allThe two things every human being craves — and how they create internal conflict in women who want to succeedWhy your calendar and your bank statement are the most honest reflection of your valuesThe four pillars of burnout recovery — nutrition, fitness, sleep and joy — and exactly where to startHow to find your way out when you are at rock bottom and do not have the financial resources for therapy or coachingWhat it was really like to write Not Built to Break — the messy middle, the visibility wounds, and the advice Pam wishes someone had given herThis one is practical, honest, and deeply human. And I promise you will walk away with something you can use today.Connect with Pam:Instagram: @pam_espWebsite: beyondpurposetherapy.comEmail: [email protected]: Not Built to Break by Pam Espin — available on Amazon nowConnect with Peta-Lea Brenda:www.peta-leabrenda.comInstagram: @petaleabrenda @thewomanempireprojectTo join me on my Bali Retreat, message me BALI on instagram.
