How eldest daughter energy is causing burnout (and what to do instead)

Описание: If you’re the eldest daughter, the overachiever, or the woman who’s always been “the responsible one,” this video explains why you’re burned out even if you love your job and look successful on paper.

Eldest daughter syndrome is a major but rarely named cause of burnout in high-achieving women. From a young age, eldest daughters are conditioned to over-function, manage emotions, anticipate needs, and carry responsibility that was never theirs. That conditioning doesn’t disappear it follows you into your career, leadership roles, and workplace dynamics, where it’s often rewarded and exploited.

In this episode, I break down how eldest daughter energy shows up as workplace burnout, people-pleasing at work, chronic overworking, hyper-independence, and emotional labor in corporate environments. This isn’t laziness or a lack of boundaries. It’s a nervous system pattern rooted in early responsibility and reinforced by hustle culture.

You’ll learn:
-What eldest daughter syndrome really is and how it leads to burnout
-Why eldest daughters are more prone to emotional exhaustion and career burnout
-How over-responsibility turns into people-pleasing and perfectionism at work
-The difference between healthy leadership and self-abandonment
-How to detach from over-functioning without quitting your job

If you’re constantly tired, mentally overwhelmed, emotionally responsible for everyone else, and questioning why success feels so heavy, this video is for you.

This conversation is especially for corporate women, leaders, mothers, and high performers experiencing burnout, nervous system dysregulation, and chronic stress at work.
