Today I talk about my journey of healing from codependency and people-pleasing through leaving the 9-5 system and starting to work for myself.
I never, NEVER desired to be an entrepreneur or to work for myself, but in my late 30s, after 4 corporate jobs, I realized... this ain't ever gonna change.
At the same time I was beginning my codependency and people-pleasing recovery journey, and realized that my codependency and low self-worth had THRIVED in the hierarchal, permission-based, patriarchal, rule-following world of the 9-5 and I truly had to begin to reckon with the depths of my people-pleasing if I wanted to ever be able to work for myself.
In today's episode, I talk about how I began to do that, and how you can too.
