Your job title can disappear overnight—who you are can’t.

In this episode, Travis opens up about walking away from corporate life and into strategic advisory work—and the identity shift that comes with it.

We talk midlife reinvention, the quiet fear (and freedom) of starting over, and why startup communities feel so different from traditional careers. Travis shares how risk-taking led to self-discovery, how shared stories create momentum, and why finding community matters just as much as finding clarity.

This conversation isn’t about quitting your job—it’s about reclaiming who you are beyond it.

If you’re questioning your next chapter, craving deeper alignment, or learning to build without a title—this episode will resonate.
