“I gave literally $73,000 to tell me how to masturbate my way to millions.”

Topics Discussed:

• Letting go of unrealistic goals and embracing the ebb and flow of life
• The concept of "having it all" in business and motherhood
• The pressures of success and societal expectations
• The connection between narcissism and extreme success
• Personal struggles of balancing work, family, and health
• Taylor Swift's career and behind-the-scenes influences
• The spiritual journey of surrendering control
• Reflections on billionaires, abundance, and what it costs to succeed
• The importance of focusing on gains instead of gaps in personal growth

“I personally think now, listening to like spiritual content creators, entrepreneurs, moms, all that, the definition of all has to be changed because you cannot have it all on this physical planet we're living on.”

Hello beautiful Monica Cox here, the voice that’s probably saying out loud what you’ve only whispered to yourself. Buckle up because this episode is an all-out, no-BS dive into the myth of “having it all.” Spoiler: It’s just as real as that diet you started last Monday.

Let’s get real for a second – whether you're juggling a business, a family, or just trying not to lose your mind in this chaotic world, the pressure to be everything is everywhere. And guess what? None of us are nailing it, not even close. We’re over here talking about billionaires, burnout, and the idea that if you’re not waking up at 4 AM to meditate while doing yoga and simultaneously crushing your 7-figure business goals, you’re failing. Newsflash: no one really has it all, and chasing that fantasy is just another way to drive yourself crazy.

We’ll also dish on how much of that “success” is just good PR, like Taylor Swift being America’s sweetheart when, surprise, her dad owned a chunk of her career from day one. Trust me, it’s not all as glittery as it seems. So, pour yourself that drink (yes, it's 5 o’clock somewhere), sit back, and let’s laugh about how none of us have it together. Enjoy the ride, because pretending otherwise is just too exhausting.

“Fundamental belief that a lot of people who have it all in the definition you were just talking about are fucking narcissists.”
