The Hidden Cost of Toxic Workplaces

A powerful episode for the high-achieving woman who's done the work—but still feels afraid to be seen. This isn’t about mindset. It’s about your nervous system remembering what the world made you forget.

Have you ever fought to be heard in toxic workplaces or draining relationships—only to leave feeling small, silenced, and burnt out?

Maybe you've started a business, launched a creative dream, or tried to show up online… but something in your body just shuts down.

That’s not failure.
That’s a nervous system running on survival.

In this raw, emotional episode, Samantha J Rix shares the hidden cost of being the “strong one,” her personal story of navigating workplace trauma, family court, and burnout—and how somatic healing, self-forgiveness, and co-regulation became her path home.

💡You’ll learn:

  • Why success still feels unsafe, even when you’ve done “the work”

  • How fight/freeze/fawn show up long after the trauma is over

  • Why you might be hoarding your brilliance in silence—and how to shift it

🌀 If this feels close to home, know this: You’re not broken. You’re just patterned. And it’s safe to change the pattern now.
