Ever step out of a case feeling like you just survived a pressure cooker then forget to celebrate the fact that you crushed it?

In this episode, Lisa and Cindy break down the truth high performers often miss: pressure isn’t punishment. It’s proof you’re trusted. They unpack the mindset shift that turns anxiety into adrenaline, stress into strategy, and responsibility into fuel for career growth.

If you’ve ever felt the weight of expectations, this one reframes it as the privilege it truly is and shows you how to step into pressure instead of shrinking from it.
