Summary

Hey, Heal Squad! We’re back with Brooke Tyalor, author of the new book,Healing the Success Wound, and while yesterday was the diagnosis, today's episode is the prescription. Brooke is giving us the actual framework to heal our success wounds, the 4 levels you have to work through (emotional, mental, behavioral, and spiritual) and the 3 pillars to redefine success on YOUR terms instead of the world's scoreboard. We get into the fascinating science of why women's nervous systems run on oxytocin and men's run on dopamine, and how we’re literally not wired for hustle culture the same way. Maria gets vulnerable about becoming a "human doing" instead of a "human being," and Brooke drops the line that's going to live in your head rent-free: "My value comes from my being and not my doing!” So, so good! This episode is a roadmap. Save it, screenshot it, send it to your group chat. Enjoy HEALERS & HEAL LINERS Healing a success wound happens on 4 levels. Brooke breaks it down: emotional (feel what you've been outrunning), mental (rewire the story that worth = output), behavioral (change how you actually show up day-to-day), and spiritual (reconnect to something bigger than your résumé). Redefine success on your terms by your values, your core states of being, and your purpose. Stop using the world's scoreboard. Brooke's 3 pillars give you a new one: what you value, how you want to feel (peace, joy, presence — not just "successful"), and what you believe you're here for. You can still be ambitious — just from wholeness, not wounding. This isn't about quitting your dreams. As Brooke says, "our ambition has two power sources — our wounding and our wholeness." Same drive, completely different fuel. One burns you out. The other fills you up. You get to choose which one you're running on.

0:05.7	If cost is the reason, here's an idea. While you're away, you could be listing your space on Airbnb.
0:11.6	I've seen friends do it. I've seen people I've met out here in El Salvador do it, turning an empty home into extra income and using that money to support the very trips they've been dreaming about, like a
0:20.9	swap. And now with Airbnb's co-host network, hosting is easier than ever. You can hire a vetted
0:25.9	local co-host to handle all the behind-the-scenes details, like guest communication and on-site

0:37.3	Heal Squad, you probably heard me talking about
0:38.9	planning a summer trip from my family to the Grand Canyon. And let me tell you, with a big family, I have to be very intentional when I'm looking on Airbnb to find the right set up. Because there's so many of us, I already know I want everyone in the same area, but still have their own space. And Honestly, that's exactly why a home on Airbnb worked so well for big group trips.
0:56.5	Instead of cramming in a hotel rooms, you're going to be... area but still have their own space. And honestly, that's exactly why a home on Airbnb worked so well
0:55.0	for big group trips. Instead of cramming in a hotel rooms, you can book multiple homes close together.
1:00.6	Everyone has room to breathe and you still have spots where everyone can come together.
1:05.0	I love finding a home with a big kitchen for meals because we all get to be in one place cooking
1:09.3	and catching up. So good for the soul.
1:11.4	Here's something else to think about. While you're away, your own place could be doing something
1:15.1	for you, too, instead of sitting empty. You can list your space on Airbnb and earn some extra cash,
