Break Free from People-Pleasing & Burnout: Béa Victoria Albina
4/28/202652 min
“Calm down.”
“You’re overreacting.”
“You’re too much.”
Women hear it everywhere—but what if the truth is this: you’re not too much… you’re carrying too much.
On Women Road Warriors, Shelley Johnson and Kathy Tuccaro welcome Beatriz (Béa) Victoria Albina, a UCSF-trained Family Nurse Practitioner, Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, and author of End Emotional Outsourcing™. This conversation dives deep into women’s mental health, burnout recovery, boundaries, self-worth, and nervous system regulation—giving you practical tools to reclaim your energy and identity.
After years of overachieving, overgiving, and burning out, Béa uncovered a powerful truth:
Overfunctioning isn’t strength—it’s survival mode.
She now helps women break free from people-pleasing, perfectionism, and codependency by combining neuroscience, somatic healing, and polyvagal theory to retrain the nervous system and rebuild self-trust.
Featured by Cosmopolitan, Goop, MindBodyGreen, Betches, and Oprah Daily, Béa is a leading voice helping women stop outsourcing their safety, belonging, and worth—and finally come home to themselves.
In this episode, you’ll learn how to:
- Reclaim your energy and stop overgiving
- Release guilt and set clear, healthy boundaries
- Reconnect with your body and inner voice
- Break lifelong patterns of emotional outsourcing
🎧 If you’ve been carrying too much for too long—this conversation will help you put it down.
