Most of us have figured out how to hold it all together when things feel heavy, but what about when life feels good? Corinne Morahan opens up about a quiet tension that many high-achieving women experience: the discomfort that comes with ease. She shares how years of stress, pressure, and responsibility can condition us to feel safer in chaos than in calm, and how that pattern can quietly limit the good we allow in whether it’s love, rest, success, or connection. If joy feels unfamiliar or fleeting, there’s probably a reason.
Corinne talks about her own process of learning to receive and hold more of the good stuff. She breaks down the nervous system’s role in this work, offers practical tools like EFT tapping, and challenges the idea that happiness needs to be earned through struggle. Have you ever caught yourself downplaying something great? Do you feel more equipped to survive than to celebrate? This episode invites you to notice those patterns and gently create space for more ease, more peace, and more of what you’ve always wanted.
