Combining neuroscience, energy, medicine and over two decades in professional leadership roles, I help you transform burnout into sustainable success by honoring your unique energetic design. In today's episode, we're diving into something I see constantly in my work with ambitious women. The hidden traps that keep you stuck in cycles of burnout.

00:00:31 -- 00:01:06
According to McKinsey's latest research, 43% of women leaders report feeling burned out. This isn't just a number. It represents thousands of these brilliant women operating against their natural design. Let me share with you the traps that I see from working with countless women. Trap number one, what I call the misaligned business model.

00:01:07 -- 00:01:45
This first trap emerges when powerful women leaders operate against their energetic blueprint. When we work against our design, our nervous system stays in a constant state of resistance. This manifests uniquely for each type. For projectors like myself, we burn out from initiating rather than waiting for the invitation. Our energy depletes when we try to work like generators and success comes through recognition, not through pushing for generators.

00:01:45 -- 00:02:24
You might feel drained from chasing opportunities instead of responding. Your powerful life force energy gets scattered and your natural satisfaction gets lost in the hustle for manifesting generators. You're pushing through without honoring your vital rest cycles. Your multi passionate nature gets stifled by linear business models and the way you can skip steps gets labeled as inconsistent rather than celebrated for manifestors. You feel constrained by traditional business structures.

00:02:25 -- 00:02:56
Your initiating power gets dampened and your independence gets misinterpreted as being difficult for reflectors. You're making snap decisions without your lunar cycle. Your wisdom gets overlooked in fast paced business environments. Your sensitivity becomes a problem rather than your superpower. Trap number two, the energy management trap.

00:02:57 -- 00:03:42
What we know from neuroscience is that our nervous system responds to how we work and make decisions. When we operate in alignment with our natural rhythms and energy patterns, our cortisol levels regulate, our decision making improves and our stress responses decrease. Human design offers us a framework to understand these natural patterns. Through my experience in professional leadership roles and working with countless clients, I've observed how understanding your design creates a pathway to work with rather than against your natural energy. Let me share with you a powerful example of this.

00:03:42 -- 00:04:24
One of my clients, a successful entrepreneur, came to me exhausted from working 12 hour days, pushing through afternoon crashes with caffeine and forcing herself to network at evening events when her energy was depleted. Through understanding her human design, she discovered she was A projector trying to work like a generator. The transforma
