Delusional! Big Dreams, Real Stories with Michelle Coyle
Delusional! Big Dreams, Real Stories with Michelle Coyle (formerly known as Seekers and Shifters) is a podcast about the blurry line between dreaming big and losing your mind. (Spoiler: anyone who has ever achieved anything probably did a little of both.)
We sit down with founders, creatives, and visionaries who bet on themselves—often when no one else would. These are the behind-the-scenes stories of people who went for it anyway. The goal? To remind you that the path to something extraordinary almost always looks “delusional” at the start.
Delusional! Big Dreams, Real Stories with Michelle Coyle
From Broken Marriage to Brand Empire
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Divorce can break your sense of identity or become the moment you finally see yourself clearly.
In this episode of Delusional!, Michelle Coyle talks with Christene Marie, Founder & CEO of The Knowing Agency, who explains what it takes to rebuild after separation. Christene speaks to the quiet patterns that shape relationships, the pressure to control outcomes, and the pain of feeling unseen. More importantly, she shows how awareness shifts everything.
Christene connects emotional healing with leadership. She highlights how past experiences influence present decisions, and why self-responsibility is the turning point for growth in business, relationships, and life. Her insights challenge high performers to look inward, recalibrate, and lead from a place of clarity instead of reaction.
Face the version of you that’s been waiting for you to step up. Tune in to this episode of From Broken Marriage to Brand Empire.
