We explore the influence of patriarchy, the rat race for success, weaponized incompetence, self-worth, and the relentless pressure to “do it all”. We’ll also tackle the cultural conditioning that reinforces self-doubt, comparison, and the myth of the “superwoman.” Together, we examine these harmful narratives and discuss how we can break free from the cycle of self-doubt, competition, perfection and burnout.
