Are you the fixer? The one who always steps up, saves the day, and keeps everything running smoothly? Yeah, that might sound noble, but here’s the truth—you’re not helping. You’re enabling.
Hilary is here to break down why over-functioning is actually a trap—for you and everyone around you.

And let’s be real—you kind of love being the one everyone relies on, don’t you? 👀
Episode Highlights:
Why “helping” is keeping everyone stuck (including you)
How over-functioning leads to exhaustion, resentment, and crappy relationships
The sneaky reason you can’t stop fixing everything
How to back off without guilt and let people handle their own mess
The magic of actually receiving for once (yes, you deserve it)
Episode Breakdown:
00:00 Are You Over-Functioning?
02:00 Five Reasons Over-Functioning is Bad
02:32 Reason 1: Training People to Rely on You

08:08 Reason 4: Hogging the Joy of Giving
09:53 Reason 5: Blocking the Flow of Reciprocity
12:22 The Hard Truth & Simple Fix
It’s time to drop the superhero cape and let people solve their own damn problems. Because the less you do, the more you actually get.

Everything you’ve been told about managing anxiety? It’s probably making it worse. In this episode, Hilary is tearing up the mainstream advice playbook—because counting backwards, meditating through a full-blown panic spiral, or just “getting more sleep” isn’t going to cut it.
Anxiety isn’t the real problem—it’s a symptom. A flashing red warning light. And until you fix what’s actually going on underneath, you’ll be stuck dealing with it forever. The good news? You are both the problem and the solution. Which means you don’t have to keep living with this.
Episode Highlights:
Why symptom-focused anxiety hacks don’t work (and what does)
The real root cause of anxiety that no one talks about
How self-betrayal, avoidance, and ignoring your gut are fueling your anxiety
The mindset shift that will actually eliminate anxiety for good
A simple but powerful way to turn anxiety into self-trust and inner peace
Episode Breakdown:
[00:00] Why Everything You’ve Heard About Anxiety Is Wrong
[04:48] The Real Cause of Anxiety (Hint: It’s Not What You Think)
[09:02] Game-Changing Questions to Calm Anxiety Instantly
[09:55] How to Build Unshakable Self-Trust & End Anxiety for Good
This isn’t about managing anxiety—it’s about eliminating it at the source. No fluff, no gimmicks, just the truth that no one else is telling you.

You want love, success, confidence, the dream body—because obviously. But what if I told you that the way you’re going after it is exactly why it keeps slipping through your fingers? Yeah, it’s not the goal that’s the problem. It’s how you’re wired to chase it.
In this episode, Hilary drops the truth bomb you didn’t know you needed: The constant grind for external validation—whether it’s from a relationship, your bank account, or the number on the scale—only reinforces the idea that you’re not enough without it. And that? That’s keeping you stuck.
Episode Highlights:
Why your biggest desires might be rooted in old insecurities (Hint: Your childhood is probably involved.)
The exhausting cycle of proving your worth (and how to break it)
Why desperate energy pushes away exactly what you want
How shifting your mindset flips the script on love, success, and happiness
The magic of deciding you're already worthy—before you have the “proof”
Episode Breakdown:
[00:00] Introduction
[01:16] The Belief-Proof Paradox
[03:03] The Powerlessness of External Validation
[06:04] The Addiction to External Proof
[07:07] High Achievers and the Need for Approval
[09:03] The Inherent Nature of Self-Worth
[10:06] Choosing to Believe in Yourself
[11:19] Worthiness Precedes Achievement
[12:00] The Importance of Self-Relationship
[12:32] Conclusion
This isn’t about sitting back and manifesting your dream life with good vibes alone. It’s about rewiring your beliefs so that you stop blocking yourself from everything you’re meant to have.
