 The "women supporting women" movement started with genuine intention—lifting each other up, creating community, and dismantling systemic barriers. But somewhere along the way, it got twisted into something that can actually damage the very people it's meant to help. In this episode, I break down the five ways this dynamic breaks down in business—and why so many coaches, consultants, and entrepreneurs are burning out trying to "support" each other. What We Cover: The Five Breaking Points:
  • Emotional labor disguised as support (and why holding space became carrying everyone's feelings)
  • Boundary collapse that makes saying "no" feel like betrayal
  • Over-identification and "coaching down" that erases individual context
  • Unspoken expectations that create performative collaboration
  • Validation masquerading as support (the most insidious problem)
What Actually Works:
  • Setting clear boundaries around time, finances, and accessibility
  • Transparent communication without the highlight reel
  • Collaborative clarity that defines expectations upfront
  • Skill sharing instead of saviorism
  • Creating offerings without creating obligations
