The four side effects of being an ambitious woman that no one warns you about. Female friendship loneliness. When you're constantly growing and changing enough leveling, you lose friends more often. Sometimes your paths just divert or your success starts to change the dynamic or you just stop feeling understood. You experience more friendship breakups than anyone else and that can feel so lonely. The dating competence gap. Dating becomes way harder because a lot of men are intimidated by your ambition or they just become competitive and resentful when you pursue your own career and dreams. You need someone who doesn't require you to shrink and whose life and emotions you don't have to manage. And that can be really hard to find recovery guilt. You have so much to do that you literally never best, even though you know logically that recovery is necessary. The second that you stop working, you feel guilty and anxious, and you think about all the things you could be doing. Your body might be resting, but your mind never gets a chance to recover. The main finish line. You accomplish something you once dreamed about, but instead of celebrating, your brain turns it to the new minimum. You can look so incredibly successful, but never actually feel successful and proud of yourself. But here's the truth. It's always worth it. And when you become aware of these patterns and learn how to manage it, the journey at the top becomes much more enjoyable. And the journey is the part that makes any of this matter. If you're building a big life and you don't wanna lose yourself in the process, follow me. That's exactly what I talk about here.
