You are allowed to want more

Hi {{ first_name | default: "there" }},

There’s something I wish someone had told me earlier.

You are allowed to want more.

Even if your life is good.
Even if you love your family.
Even if you worked hard to build it.

Wanting more doesn’t make you ungrateful.
It makes you awake.

A lot of high-achieving women silence their desire because it feels selfish.

So they shrink it.
Postpone it.
Explain it away.

But desire is data.

It tells you where you’re meant to grow.

Let me ask you a deep question.

Is there something you want right now that you’ve been pretending not to want?

You don’t have to justify it.
Just acknowledge it.

If you feel safe sharing, hit reply and tell me what it is.

Dr. Leen

What would you create if you knew you ...
The 4 questions I ask before saying yes to anything
Hi {{ first_name | default: "there" }}, One of the biggest parts of designing my life was learning how to say no. I used to say yes to everything. Then I burned out. I realized I had no boundaries. So I created a framework. Before I say yes to anything, I ask myself 4 questions. Is this a hell yes or a no? If it's not a hell yes, it's a no. Does this align with my core values? If it doesn't...
I stopped optimizing my life and started designing it.
Hi {{ first_name | default: "there" }}, For years, I tried to optimize my life. More productivity. More efficiency. More output. But optimization is about doing more. And I was already doing too much. Then I realized something: Optimization assumes the life you're living is the right one. It just needs to be more efficient. But what if the life you're living isn't the one you want? What if you ...
