In this reflective, deeply empowering episode, Evie shares the story of how taking a full year away from engineering helped her dismantle toxic productivity beliefs, heal generational trauma, and rebuild her self-worth — all of which ultimately led to negotiating a $27K salary increase, a $15K sign-on bonus, and a job aligned with her values. Evie discusses quitting her engineering role in 2021, navigating burnout from the pandemic, building two businesses, unpacking childhood trauma, and redefining her identity outside of productivity. She opens up about reclaiming her boundaries, raising her salary standards, and learning to say no to misaligned job offers — even after a full year off work. This episode is a powerful reminder that your worth is not measured by your output. You do not need to prove anything through overworking, perfectionism, or constant achievement. Worthiness is inherent — and when you believe that, negotiating becomes an act of self-respect rather than fear.Episode Timestamps00:01 — Why a year off was the catalyst for healing & clarity 00:52 — Leaving engineering during the pandemic & feeling unfulfilled01:44 — Building two businesses during her “year off”02:25 — Unpacking childhood trauma & limiting beliefs03:42 — Why negotiation requires deep self-belief04:51 — Re-entering the workforce with higher standards06:15 — Saying no to misaligned offers after a year of unemployment07:12 — Embracing boundaries, red flags, & non-negotiables08:36 — How Evie negotiated a $27K increase + $15K sign-on bonus10:06 — Feminine energy & the truth about effective negotiation10:58 — Five income streams & hitting her Coast FI number12:27 — Celebrating small wins without waiting for milestones14:39 — “I relinquish the belief that I need to be productive to deserve wealth or love.”16:40 — Releasing survival mode & embracing inherent worth17:55 — Leaving the engineer identity & reclaiming self-respect18:59 — Helping clients shift their beliefs & negotiate from abundance19:19 — Final reflections: stepping into your authentic, wealth-worthy selfWant support in raising your career and salary standards?
