*What does it take to build a career that truly feels good—especially when you’re burned out, navigating language bias, and constantly trying to prove your worth?*
In this episode, I’m joined by Kax U., a former tech leader turned founder and coach for women in tech. We talk about:
– Why burnout isn’t just about overwork—it’s about misalignment
– How internalized perfectionism and cultural pressure shape our careers
– The unspoken rules of English-first workplaces
– Language bias, immigrant narratives, and the myth of “perfect fluency”
– What it means to reframe success from the inside out
✨ Whether you’re multilingual, managing a global team, or just trying to stay grounded in a shifting world, this conversation is a must.
