My Laptop Didn’t Come To Lunch, And Neither Did The Guilt

Send us Fan MailUnleash Her: The Next Chapter BeginsWhat happens when the habit everyone applauds slowly empties you out? We open up about growing up with a self-sacrifice script, chasing a career while raising kids, and the silent resentment that builds when rest is always last on the list. The story moves from the 9-to-5-to-2 a.m. grind to a gentle, grounded reset: morning rituals that actually stick, boundaries that protect both family and focus, and one surprisingly luxurious act of self-care that cost nothing but time.You’ll hear the honest timeline of burnout—how “doing it all” became doing too much—and why sustainable ambition asks for seasons, support, and clear limits. We talk about redefining progress beyond hours worked, trading performative productivity for presence, and learning to trust your value without midnight emails. There’s also a behind-the-scenes look at Unleash Her, the anthology featuring powerful stories from women who chose a different path, and how those voices helped build Still Roses and its mission to elevate women’s experiences.If you’ve ever felt guilty for resting or felt praised for running on empty, this conversation offers a practical path back to yourself. Expect real-life tools: a simple morning routine, permission to drop or delegate, and language for setting expectations at work and at home. Plus, a listener giveaway for the first five who message us for a copy of the book. If this resonates, share it with a friend who needs the reminder, tap follow to stay close to the journey, and leave a review to help more women find their way back to time that truly feeds the soul.Support the showLove this content?
