What if the dream of “having it all” is quietly destroying women’s health?

In this brutally honest episode of hol+, Dr. Taz MD sits down with economist and Wharton professor Dr. Corinne Low to reveal the invisible forces behind the burnout epidemic affecting ambitious, high-achieving women. From breastfeeding in Amtrak bathrooms to chasing tenure while shouldering 100% of the household load, Dr. Low shares her personal crash—and the data that proves she’s not alone.

While society celebrates the superwoman myth, the reality is far more dangerous: women are breaking down emotionally, physically, and hormonally under impossible expectations. Dr. Low dismantles the cultural fantasy of balance and exposes the economic and biological math that simply doesn’t add up.

This episode is for every woman who’s ever felt exhausted, stuck, and silently wondered, “Is this it?”

Whether you’re navigating career, family, fertility, or all of the above, this conversation will shift how you see success, partnership, and your own worth.
