Self-doubt in business
You know what you're doing.
You've built a business. You've made things happen. You've navigated challenges, taken risks, solved problems and probably achieved things that the younger version of you could only have imagined.
From the outside, you're capable. Resourceful. Driven. The woman people turn to when something needs sorting.
But inside?
It's a rather different story.
Productivity, Anxiety & Somatics:
Why High Performers Struggle to Switch Off
There’s a version of anxiety that gets rewarded constantly.
It looks productive.
Capable.
Reliable.
Driven.
It’s the person who always gets things done.
Always pushing through.
Always “handling” the pressure.
And because it works externally, nobody questions it - including the person living it.
Sound familiar?
But eventually, a lot of high-performing people hit the same wall:
“Why can’t I relax?”
“Why do I feel anxious when I stop?”
“Why does rest not actually make me feel rested?”
“Why am I exhausted but still unable to switch off?”
And this is where productivity, burnout, nervous system regulation, and somatics all start overlapping.
