The shift that completely changed Dasha's life and mental health: learning to feel disappointed without letting it wreck you.
If you're a high-achieving woman who's been conditioned to think your worth equals your output, this episode is for you. Dasha breaks down how she moved from brutal self-criticism (replaying mistakes over and over, apologizing too much, spiraling into shame) to genuine self-acceptance - even when she messes up.
She shares the cringe-worthy story of being completely wrong in a meeting with a senior partner and how that one moment haunted her for years. Now? It's just a memory without emotions attached because she's learned the difference between disappointment and shame.
Key insights:
This isn't about becoming sloppy - it's about putting yourself in spaces that give you leeway to be excellent AND human.
