Pressure Is Not Proof of Purpose | Mostly Together Podcast

What if the very things we're praised for — working hard, taking care of everyone, pushing through, holding it all together — are also the things quietly pulling us away from ourselves?

Carrie Lupoli is a nutritionist, award-winning behavior specialist, international speaker and author of From Corset to Crown. But this conversation goes far beyond food.

Carrie and Nicole talk about the invisible "corsets" women learn to wear: perfectionism, people-pleasing, achievement, comparison, sacrifice and the belief that we have to change ourselves in order to have value.

They explore why pressure isn't proof of purpose, how women can lose themselves while still appearing incredibly capable, why changing a behavior requires understanding what's underneath it, and what happens when the patterns that helped make us successful begin to cost us something.

Plus, Carrie opens up about motherhood, the complicated relationship so many women have with food and their bodies, the pushback that can come when we start making different choices for ourselves — and why becoming the healthiest version of yourself is ultimately a journey of self-discovery.

Because maybe the goal isn't becoming someone better.

Maybe it's remembering you were already worthy.
