Over the past year, I’ve been hearing the same thing from women entrepreneurs:
😩 The mental load feels heavier than ever
😩 You’re running a business and running a household
😩 Your body is tired, your brain is full… and you’re wondering if it’s just you
If that sounds familiar, you’re definitely not alone.
And it’s not a personal failing — it’s the reality of what women are being asked to hold.
That’s why I teamed up with trauma-informed health expert Parijat Deshpande and career + identity coach Karen Ozeri for a live Purposeful Business Roundtable: an honest conversation about the invisible load women carry — and how to lighten it without doing MORE.
In this roundtable, you’ll hear:
- Why so many women feel overloaded right now (and why it makes perfect sense)
- The identity shifts of motherhood no one prepares us for
- How cultural expectations + systemic gaps shape stress and capacity
- What chronic busyness does to the nervous system
- Small, doable shifts that help you reclaim energy and agency — in business and in life
