S1 EP16: Dying in the Driveway

What it means when you cannot bring yourself to walk inside

Imagine sitting in your car long after pulling into the driveway. Engine off. Dashboard clock ticking. Minutes passing by while the weight of stepping inside feels heavier than the day itself.

If you have ever found yourself frozen in your car, bracing for the walk through the front door, this episode is for you.

I share the real story of someone close to me who felt suffocated in the one place that should have been a refuge. You will hear why the driveway pause is more than procrastination. It is a messenger. A cry for mercy. And I walk you through three steps to begin shifting the weight so you can breathe again in the life you worked so hard to build.

Key Takeaways:

✨ Why the driveway pause is a sign your nervous system is waving a white flag

✨ How to begin tending to your mental health before you step inside

✨ The importance of a calm and honest state of the union conversation with your partner

✨ Why bringing in a counselor can shift the dynamic when asking for help alone is not enough

You worked too hard to create a life that leaves you gasping for air outside your own front door. You deserve to walk inside and feel safe and whole.

✨ Rewrite. Reclaim. Reinvent. ✨Because you are not meant to die in the driveway every night before starting on dinner.
