When you self-neglect, you suffer. Making Space for Me is for women who do everything for everyone, yet rarely have space for themselves. This personal growth and wellness podcast explores emotional load, burnout, self-neglect, and the invisible pressures that make it hard to choose yourself. Through short, reflective episodes, each conversation offers practical insight, mindset shifts, and permission to slow down, honor your needs, and reconnect with yourself. Hosted by Nurse Practitioner and Wellness Educator Otanthia Williams-Brady. At the heart of this work is a simple truth: self-priority isn’t selfish—it’s stewardship. This podcast is an invitation to make space for yourself in a life that never slows down and to live in a way that supports your well-being—not just the roles and responsibilities you hold—because your needs matter too!

    The Invisible Pressure Women Carry (And How to Release It)

    In this episode of Making Space for Me, we talk about the internal pressures women carry to be everything for everyone.  The pressure to keep the house running, show up for family, hold it all together, and never slow down. Over time, these expectations become internalized, shaping how we see ourselves and what we believe we “should” do, even when we’re exhausted.  We explore the internal standards many women live under, how they quietly fuel burnout, and gentle ways to begin releasing expectations that no longer serve you. If you’re ready to put some of the weight down and breathe a little easier, this episode is for you.
