I uncovered a pattern of slowing myself down to avoid making others uncomfortable, only to realise I was actually shrinking my own potential. This moment explores how high-achieving women often temper their natural pace and ambition out of fear of being "too much" or leaving others behind.

• The danger of learning early that moving too fast threatens others around you
• How slowing down can become a form of self-sabotage and protection
• The distinction between moving at your natural pace versus hustling from pressure
• Why adding unnecessary struggle to "earn" success diminishes your natural gifts
• Moving quickly while still bringing others along through clean energy and systems
• Embracing your natural pace without shrinking your dreams or intelligence
• Learning to trust your instincts and make decisions efficiently
