#51 Why You Always Have to Go-Go-go with Executive Consultant Brooke Dukes

Be The Wolf

I’ve heard all the reasons why women are driven to succeed. And one I hear over and over again is, “I don’t want to feel trapped like my mother was. Stuck in a terrible marriage with no way to leave or support herself.”

And so these women work their butts off to get degrees and climb the corporate ladder.

And they go go go. And go go go. And go go go. Never once slowing down to check in and see if they’re actually happy. Just one foot in front of the other. Keep going!

Most of these women have no idea they’re riding the edge of burnout.

Sure they know they are stressed and overloaded with work. Yes, they know their boss is an egomaniac and their coworkers are cold and unsupportive.

But it’s always been that way. They don’t know anything different.

They will put the safety and security of having a job ahead of EVERYTHING else. And they don’t even realize they’re doing it. Until they lose (or almost lose) what’s most important to them.

I’ve saved many of my clients from the fate of loss. And I’ve helped them pick up the pieces after they lost it all. I don’t want that for you.

That’s why I share other people’s stories on my podcast. So you can learn from their experience and avoid making the same mistakes.

This week’s guest is Brooke Dukes. She is a powerful woman who had all the measures of success - a nice home, husband, family, great salary, and promising career. But she had no idea she was riding that edge of burnout. And it wasn’t until she was given an ultimatum that would change her life, that she’d realize how much her over-the-top drive was costing her.
