In this thoughtful and timely episode of the Self-Care Goddess Podcast, I had the honor of speaking with with Barbara Burgess, author, executive coach, and founder of Corluma.
Barbara joins us for an honest, heart-centered conversation inspired by her book Enough: Finding Peace in a World of Distractions, Hustle, and Expectations. Together, we unpack how comparison, hustle culture, and constant distraction disconnect us from our innate sense of enoughness, and how returning to the body is the key to remembering who we are.
This episode opens with a guided heart-focused breathing practice and weaves together emotional intelligence, embodiment, self-compassion, and practical wisdom for navigating modern life with more grace and self-trust.
✨ Here’s what you’ll learn in this powerful and grounding episode:
✅ Why the belief “I am not enough” is one of the most common core wounds people carry
✅ The difference between understanding self-worth cognitively and experiencing it in the body
✅ What “embodied enoughness” feels like and how to recognize it somatically
✅ How Barbara’s sidewalk chalk moment became a turning point in her healing journey
✅ Why the body receives information faster than the thinking mind
✅ How comparison quietly drains joy, confidence, and vitality
✅ The “ladder of comparison” and why the only way to win is to step off
