What if the reason you’re exhausted isn’t because there’s too much to do… but because you’re carrying things that were never yours to hold?
In this interview, I join Rachel Green on the Keep the Kids in Mind podcast to talk about the pattern of overfunctioning and why so many women feel responsible for everyone and everything around them.
We explore how these patterns develop, how they show up in relationships, and why trying to do it all often creates the very dynamics we’re frustrated by.
We also discuss:
- what overfunctioning actually is (and why it’s so common among women)
- how childhood conditioning shapes our sense of responsibility
- the connection between self-worth and doing
- why resentment builds in relationships
- how overfunctioning can unintentionally encourage underfunctioning in others
- receiving support and letting people show up for you
- why criticism can feel so activating when your worth is tied to being responsible
- how Human Design helps us reconnect with our authentic selves
- practical ways to start breaking the pattern
If you’ve ever felt like everything falls on you, this conversation will help you understand why—and what it looks like to create a different experience.
