The Cost of Doing It All with Dot Rock

What does it actually cost us to be the person who handles everything? In this episode, I'm talking with Dot Rock — HR strategist, CFO, pilot, single mom, and host of The Power of Oxygen First podcast. Dot shares the story of nearly crashing a plane while running on empty, the lessons she learned about asking for help after major surgery, and why she no longer believes in overwhelm. We talk about hyper-responsibility, burnout, self-care, and what happens when we stop waiting for permission to do the things that bring us alive. We talk about: • Where the pattern of hyper-responsibility comes from • What burnout can look like when it isn't dramatic exhaustion • Why asking for help is often harder than doing it all yourself • The morning practices that help Dot stay grounded • Why Dot no longer believes in overwhelm • The power of doing the thing your heart is calling you toward Connect with Dot: Website: dotrockconsulting.com Podcast: The Power of Oxygen First Connect with me: Website: groundingwithruth.com Instagram, Facebook & LinkedIn: Grounding with Ruth Free resource: Not Broken, Buried — a free guide and grounding meditation for women who are tired of pushing harder and want to start uncovering who they already are beneath the layers.
