Breaking Free from Overachieving and People-Pleasing with Kimberly Benjamin

What if everything you've been taught about success is actually keeping you trapped? What if the very traits that make you a high achiever are the same ones stealing your joy and creativity?

Today we sit down with Kimberly Benjamin, emotional intelligence coach and founder of the Alchemy Room, who's building a revolution one woman at a time. Kim combines human design with somatic healing to support women break free from the exhausting cycle of overachieving and people-pleasing.

We're diving into why your nervous system might be keeping you stuck in old patterns even when you think you're healing, how understanding your unique energetic blueprint through human design can support you to attract the right people and opportunities, and why self-love isn't just feel-good fluff - it's the foundation for everything else.

This conversation will show you how to build a legacy rooted in joy, tap into your body's incredible wisdom, and finally create the meaningful impact you've always wanted without sacrificing yourself in the process.
