đź”® THE TRANCE OF NEVER ENOUGH

How the Extractive Mindset Is Draining Brilliant Women—and What We Can Do About It
Lately, I’ve been coaching many brilliant, high-achieving women who—by all external measures—have made it. They are powerful, polished, deeply capable. And yet, over and over again, they confess something haunting:

“I feel like I should be doing more.”
”If I could just accomplish _______________
“I’m scared I’m going to lose it all.”

This is not ambition speaking.
This is ego exhaustion masked as purpose.
This is the extractive mindset at work.

And it is costing us our peace, our health, and our relationships.

“Waiting on a future success to feel true joy is like holding your breath until someone else says you can breathe.” —Jennifer Freed Read the rest of this article for free at drjenniferfreed on substack

A LETTER TO THE WOMEN WHO COULD SAVE DEMOCRACY

Some extraordinary women possess impactful wealth and are already quite philanthropic.

What if these women joined together and invested in public broadcasting and factual news?

Dear Women of Extraordinary Means and Influence,

We are at a defining crossroads in history, where disinformation proliferates and trusted journalism is eroded.

But what if you—the most powerful, visionary women of our time—came together to preserve the soul of democracy?

What if you joined forces to ensure the survival of NPR, PBS, and local public media for the next ten years?

Imagine the Impact:

A country where facts still matter.
A nation where civic trust is restored.
A world where girls grow up seeing women lead in truth, equity, and vision.
And what if…

You launched a groundbreaking show on public broadcasting that elevates women shaping the future—healers, artists, scientists, teachers, freedom fighters, and bridge builders? It would be a showcase of all the courage and competence required at this time.

This could be the new suffragette movement—one that not only protects the right to vote but defends the voice of democracy itself: a free and balanced press.

We are calling on you to invest—not just in media, but in the future we all deserve.

With admiration and urgency,
Dr Jennifer Freed

SHATTER WELL
Just as the body decomposes
to rejoin the ever-present molecules of life,
our hearts break—
like a thousand shards of glass scattering.

Don’t rush to pick up the pieces
or glue them back together.
What was lost and broken
can never return the same.

It is in the utter breaking,
the full and helpless scattering,
that we connect beyond ourselves—
the pain that ensouls us together,
the anguish that softens the edges
of our fixed thoughts and lives.

Shattering is the invitation
to know ourselves anew.

Spread out like a spattered blanket of stars,
our love can reach beyond the doors of familiarity.
The old path, completely undone,
gives us permission
to create from a different,
less programmed beginning.

The programming failed us.
But we are not forever lost.

Shatter well—
and find the other millions
of tiny fractured lights
to chart the new course—
the one not bound by rust.
