You know that daydream where someone else handles all the big decisions while you sip coffee and plan lunch dates? You're not the only high-achieving mom having this "trophy wife" fantasy.

Two women on recent calls - a CFO and a CEO - both confessed they'd love to give up everything they've built just to have zero responsibilities.

In this episode, you'll learn:

🎯 Why your brain craves the "trophy wife" life - plus the hidden stressors that come with it (financial anxiety, identity loss, boredom)

🎯 What you're actually craving - it's not zero responsibilities, it's choosing responsibilities that feel aligned with who you want to be

🎯 Questions to ask yourself instead of fantasizing about giving it all up

After listening:

You'll stop feeling guilty about wanting to "escape"

• You'll know exactly what support you actually need
• You'll have a framework for choosing stress that aligns with your values
• You'll understand how to create appreciation for what you're already doing

My former stay-at-home client proved even "trophy wives" feel like they have no time. So this isn't about escaping responsibility - it's about choosing responsibilities that fulfill you instead of drain you.
