I blew up my life so I could finally live it.
I was stuck. Burnt out. People-pleasing. Over-functioning. Under-acknowledged. So I stopped everything. I walked away from the job, the marriage, the version of me that kept everyone else comfortable.
Now I’m here—still healing, still leading, and telling the truth about what it really takes to get free. This show isn’t about surface-level hacks. It’s about the big work: healing your patterns, finding your voice, and choosing yourself—again and again—until your life finally feels like it’s yours.
You’re not broken. You’re at the edge of something real. And this show will help you come home to yourself—because this is your life, and you deserve to feel proud on your deathbed.

#45 - Why High Achievers Still Feel Empty (And How To Fix It) feat. Joseph Logan
This one’s personal. I’m joined by executive coach and friend, Joseph Logan, and we’re diving deep into the emotional side of success. What happens after you’ve “made it” but something still feels… off?
We talk about identity, leadership, and the moments that crack us open (in a good way). This episode literally sparked my own rebrand. If you’re a high performer who’s hit the top and asked, “Now what?”, this one’s for you.
Key Themes:
- Success isn’t always what it seems
- Navigating identity beyond achievement
- Coaching high-performers through transitions
- Embracing moments of emotional clarity
- Rebranding when your purpose evolves
