TEDx speaker. Ex-Apple exec. Former director at Europe's largest private equity fund. 

Lamiaa Laurène Daif has walked away from more dream jobs than most of us will ever have — and she can help you figure out when it's time.

If you've ever thought "I should be happy, but I'm just not" — this one's for you.

Lamiaa's first shift was forced: burnout, a health crisis, a life that looked perfect and felt awful. Her second was completely different. After five years leading global strategy at Apple, she left at her peak — on her own terms. Now she's a pivot expert and executive coach helping high achievers do the same, without waiting for the breaking point.

We unpack the three limiting beliefs that keep successful people stuck (sunk cost, the "when-then" trap, and fear of other people's opinions), the question her coach asked that changed everything, her three-stage process for making a shift without blowing up your life, what staying too long actually costs you, and how to find a coach who's worth it.
