About this episode
The episode discusses emotional outsourcing and its impact on women's mental health and drinking habits.
If you’re the woman who holds everything together, manages everyone else’s needs, and still ends the day overwhelmed, resentful, and reaching for wine, this episode is for you. In this conversation, I’m talking with Beatriz Victoria Albina about a pattern that quietly drives so much stress, anxiety, overgiving, and overdrinking: emotional outsourcing. Bea is a UCSF-trained Family Nurse Practitioner, Somatic Experiencing practitioner, Master Certified Somatic Life Coach, and author of End Emotional Outsourcing. Together, we talk about why so many women end up stuck in people-pleasing, perfectionism, and self-abandonment — and how to begin breaking that cycle without shame.
