The Most Dangerous Form of Self-Abandonment Doesn’t Look Like Self-Abandonment

Empowerment

For the high-capacity woman who’s had Enough. You don’t want to override yourself anymore. This ones for you.

Let me explain.

The high-capacity woman doesn’t burn out from lack of drive. She burns out from over-functioning and sacrificing herself for the stability of others.

It looks like being capable. Being the responsible one. The strong one. The one who doesn’t ever ask for help but helps everyone else.

I’ve lived this. I know first hand about being the solid one. And It works, until it doesn’t. Eventually it costs you the person you were meant to be. I realized the only one consistently compromising in my life was me.

Then it hits you!

You’ve mastered being the one everyone relies on, anticipating everyone’s needs and meeting them. But somewhere along the path you left yourself behind.

And that’s when it hits. The realization that you’ve been living responsibly, and for everyone else, but not living authentically.

Can you relate?

The moment you see that the life you’ve built, and the people within it, have been thriving at the cost of your self-abandonment. This is when it all changes because something consequential is at stake—you.

This is the threshold moment that changes everything.

People tend to find me and reach out for private mentoring at thresholds. When something consequential is unfolding. What looks like a single decision is often the culmination of years of overextension finally catching up.

⟶ A health diagnosis.
⟶ A relationship that has reached its expiration.
⟶ The urgency to finally share their story and publish their book.
A career move that could define the next decade.

Ask yourself:

⟶ Do you feel guilty when you prioritize yourself, even when you know it’s necessary?
⟶ Do you instinctively manage everyone else’s comfort before tending to your own?
⟶ Do you feel confident in a decision, only for your self-trust to collapse the moment someone disapproves or shares their point of view?
⟶ Have you built a life that works, yet feel a sense that something essential is missing?

These are the common threads I see in the clients I work with. They come to me when they say:

“Enough. I don’t want to override myself anymore. Show me how to shift it.”

But we go deeper.

Underneath, we identify the inherited patterns and over-functioning that shaped your choices. We uncover why overriding yourself felt protective, and how being dependable, needed, and capable became your measure of worth, and what it’s costing you.

On the surface, it can look like you need more clarity and more courage to decide.

And we restructure and heal it at the root.

Before:

⟶ Prioritizing others’ comfort at the expense of self.
⟶ Overriding yourself to maintain connection and peace.
⟶ Self-trust collapsed under disapproval.
⟶ You felt guilty for self-care and joy.
⟶ Overworked and over-gave to feel valued and needed.
⟶ Pains from the past keep playing out in the present.

After:

⟶ You make choices around alignment.
⟶ Relationships shift. To stand in truth, they become healthier.
⟶ You now make decisions that honor you and uplift others.
⟶ Empowerment and fulfillment lived daily.
⟶ You live on a foundation of love and peace in your heart.
⟶ Hopelessness transforms into hope and excitement.

The results are undeniable. I support and guide you to:

I support and guide you to feel a stronger connection to yourself and trust what you feel and know. You stop second-guessing your decisions. You release responsibility for managing everyone else’s comfort. You set boundaries without spiraling in guilt. You make important decisions from clarity instead of fear and stop choosing from old wiring. Your relationships improve because you show up honestly, and your standards rise across work, health, and partnership.

This is what embodied self-trust looks like in practice. My clients recently have experienced these results firsthand.

Your automatic behaviors are no longer centered around pleasing others or driven by fear of disappointing them. You no longer over-function to maintain stability. Old survival patterns stop dictating your decisions. Relationships feel reciprocal and respectful, and you feel seen and valued. Work feels purposeful and reflects your joy and passion. You gain more energy, focus, confidence, and clarity. Authority becomes internal. You move from survival to sovereignty.

Live in alignment. Leave self-abandonment behind.

ABOUT the Author

Hi, I’m Shannon. What tried to break me built this mission. You're not the problem, and you never were.


As a highly sensitive and empathic woman, I became a target for manipulation, and covert abuse disguised as love, friendship, and mentorship. It took hitting emotional rock bottom, after betrayals, gaslighting, and repeated boundary violations, for me to finally say: enough. I walked away, but the real healing began when I turned inward. This work is the result of that return to self. The She Saves Herself Collective was born from a deep knowing: that healing isn’t about going back, it’s about becoming who we were always meant to be.
