Broken to Brave | Guiding you to heal & break free from anxiety
On the outside you look like you have it all together. On the inside you feel anxious, overwhelmed, stressed, or stuck in survival mode. Broken to BRAVE is where high-achieving women learn they’re not failing and finally find the calm, confidence, and freedom they’ve been craving.
I’m Dr. Steph, a former NASA psychologist turned healing coach. In this podcast, I’ll walk with you through the patterns that keep you over-functioning, people-pleasing, and second-guessing yourself, and I’ll show you how to break free. You’ll hear real stories, simple steps, and the brave questions that change everything.
You don’t need another set of coping tools. What you need is a way back to yourself.
Week by week, I will help you calm your nervous system, build self-trust, and see yourself in a new way….not as failing, not as too much. Instead, as a woman who is capable of peace, presence, and joy.

When You Carry What Isn’t Yours
Have you ever walked away from a conversation feeling responsible for someone else's mood? Like it's your job to fix their disappointment, even when you did nothing wrong? I’ve been there too. In this episode, I’m unpacking the emotional weight we carry when we confuse empathy with responsibility, and how that pattern quietly disconnects us from ourselves.
I’ll walk you through how this shows up in everyday life, what it’s actually rooted in, and what healing can look like when you stop carrying what was never yours to begin with.
In This Episode, I Cover:
- How codependency can hide inside empathy and over-functioning
- Why your nervous system may be confusing discomfort with danger
- What it feels like to set down emotional weight that doesn’t belong to you
