That feeling when you've finished a 12-hour day, your to-do list is somehow longer than when you started, and there's still this gnawing feeling that you should be doing more? Let's talk about what's really driving that. In this final episode of 2024, I'm sharing a profound realization: that drive to work harder, longer, better isn't actually your ambition speaking - it's an old wound trying to keep you safe. Whether you're the business owner checking Slack at midnight, overdelivering until exhaustion, or creating endless new offers "just to be safe," this episode explores why these patterns exist and how to break free from them.

In this episode, I share:

  • The moment my body forced me to recognise my overworking pattern
  • How different childhood experiences shape our relationship with work and achievement
  • Why overworking feels like safety (and what's actually creating your results)
  • A powerful framework for releasing this pattern while honouring your younger self
  • My personal letter from 2025 and the profound shift it revealed
