Are you?

  • Underpricing your products/services
  • Feeling undervalued in your family and wonder “what about me”
  • Being overlooked for promotions/opportunities even though you are the BEST at what you do
  • Overgiving and oversharing resulting in dissatisfaction
  • Not asking for what you want/need and feeling alone
  • Feeling exhausted at the end of the day and wondering what you actually did and dreading doing it all again tomorrow
