Health in Wealth® Ep 14 - Success Is Not Self-Sacrifice: Redesigning a Life...with Jessica Shraybham

Описание: Welcome back to the Health in Wealth® podcast.
I’m Ana Ramos, and I’m grateful to be sharing this space with you today.

Today’s conversation starts with something many high-performing people experience, but rarely pause to examine.

Overwhelm.

Not as a crisis.
Not as failure.
But as a signal.

In a culture that often equates wealth with productivity and resilience with endurance, overwhelm can quietly become the cost of being capable, responsible, and committed.

This episode of Health in Wealth® asks a different question:
What if overwhelm is not a personal weakness, but information — telling us that the way we are living and leading needs to be redesigned?

My guest today is Jessica Shraybman, an attorney, founder, and mother whose professional life reflects this question with remarkable clarity. Jessica built a successful legal practice by being dependable, driven, and available — until the accumulation of responsibility, motherhood, and expectation began to outweigh what one person could sustainably hold.

This is not a conversation about stepping away from ambition. It’s about what happens when success continues to work on paper, but no longer works in the body or in daily life.

We’ll explore how overwhelm shows up, how identity and responsibility intertwine, and how redesigning support systems — including teams — becomes essential to protecting wealth-being over the long term.

So, take a breath.
Settle in.
And let this conversation meet you where you are. Let’s begin.
