The Life You Love

What makes a career “successful” is shifting.

The path used to be:

• Get a job
• Work hard
• Get promoted
• Make more money
• Take on more responsibility
• Keep doing that until you retire

Now, there are more ways to have a successful career.

People are building their own careers, consulting, building small businesses, creating content, selling digital products, and more.

Today, we chatted about the new rules of career growth and why it doesn’t have to be linear anymore. We break down some of the ways you can create your own non-linear career.

Ambitious women consistently struggle with finding their identity. Not knowing who they are, what their purpose is, and whether they’ve lost who they once were.

In today’s episode, we’re flipping the script a bit on what it means to find your identity as an ambitious woman.

We covered topics like:

• why we tend to tie so much of our identity to our careers and accomplishments
• how our identity changes as we go through different seasons of life
• why relying on external validation can make it harder to feel confident in who we are
• ways to build a sense of self outside of work and reconnect with parts of ourselves we may have forgotten

If you’ve ever wanted to start something but didn’t feel qualified, this episode is going to shift your perspective.

What does it actually look like to feel fulfilled in your career? Does an entire career overhaul need to happen? Or can you make a few tweaks to what you do now and feel significantly better?

In this week’s episode, we walked through two frameworks for finding fulfillment in your career. Both of these frameworks played crucial roles in our careers, leading us to the fulfilling work we do today.

We covered topics like:

• how to identify your values and make sure your career reflects them
• why work doesn’t HAVE to be something you’re passionate about (and why it often isn’t for people with multiple passions)
• why it’s completely okay to prioritize things like money and balance over passion

We often get asked, “How do you know when you’re ready to take a leap?”

And the truth is - you don’t.

In fact, the ONLY way to know is to start.

In this week’s episode, we brought back clips from 3 of our previous episodes with incredible guests who decided to start before they truly knew what lie ahead.

These guests found the courage to go after their dream life, figure things out along the way, and wound up with the successful lives they dreamt of.

We hope these stories remind you of what’s possible, how girls JUST LIKE YOU are out here creating their dream lives (AKA you can do the dang thing too!!), and how courage is often the missing piece in taking a leap (not more information).

What if accepting support from others became your biggest growth strategy? The thing that propelled you into the exact life you’ve dreamt of?

For some of the most successful women, support is what gives them edge. It’s what allows them to have their hands in multiple things, grow each one with apparent ease, and still show up with their hair brushed and outfit on point.

But what do you do if that’s the life you crave, but you’re stuck in a cycle of hyper-independence? We’re not talking about plain independence, we’re talking about refusing to rely on anyone else.

In this week’s episode, we discussed:

• the difference between independence and hyper independence
• where hyper-independence actually comes from
• how to heal your hyper-independence without forcing you to “just accept help”
• why healing your hyper-independence might be the best thing you can do if you want to grow in your career, finances, and life

We all have something we keep saying, “I’ll do this when…”

• I have more money.
• The time is right.
• My schedule is less busy.

But at what point are we just making excuses? At what point are we just not taking action because that’s the more comfortable thing to do ?

In this week’s episode, we had a candid conversation about why we keep saying things like this and share a quick 3-step framework for kicking your own butt back into action.

What if the financial freedom you crave doesn’t require retiring early?

For many of us, retirement is synonymous with financial freedom. But beneath that goal is often just a desire for freedom itself:

• the ability to do work you enjoy, on your own terms
• having more choice with your finances
• the flexibility to spend your time as you want

All of these things are possible without retiring.

So in this week’s episode, we chatted about what financial freedom can actually look like if you don’t desire retiring early. We covered things like:

• how you can give yourself the feeling of freedom sooner
• what financial milestones to aim for instead of retirement
• what to do with the freedom you’ve already built and will continue to build

We all love a good reset - whether it’s for your routines, your career, or your physical space. But at what point is perpetually resetting your life just a strategy for avoiding the real work? At what point is it a distraction from the things you should ACTUALLY be doing?

In this week’s episode, we broke down why reset culture is so prevalent from a psychological perspective, why resetting your life over and over isn’t as beneficial as you think, and what to do instead.

We’re not saying you should never reset your life, but there IS a way to use resets strategically and NOT as a mechanism for distraction.

Despite what social media tells us, perfectionism isn't something to be proud of - it's actually a protective mechanism we've developed to shield ourselves from failure, judgment, and criticism. In this episode, we're getting vulnerable about our own struggles with perfectionism and breaking down the psychology behind why it's so prevalent among ambitious women.

What we covered:

If you've ever felt like your worth is tied to your performance, struggled to finish projects because they're not "perfect enough," or found yourself paralyzed before hitting publish - this episode is for you.

Being busy isn’t the same as being productive.

Being busy is having your calendar full of things, but never feeling like you’ve made meaningful progress on your goals. Being productive means making real strides further on the things that matter.

It’s easy to stay busy when you’re ambitious, but being TRULY productive can be a struggle.

You toggle between tasks, never quite finish anything, and fear taking the risky steps forward that will make the most progress.

What if losing your sense of purpose isn’t a sign that something’s wrong with you, but a sign that you’ve outgrown this season and something better is about to enter your life?

Today’s episode is for the woman who used to feel really clear on what she was doing and why, and somewhere along the way, that clarity disappeared.

It’s also for the woman who has never felt clear on her purpose and has been quietly wondering if something is wrong with her.

Today, we’re not going to give you a vision board exercise or tell you to just follow your passion. We’re going to dive into the psychology of purpose, why humans need it, and how to actually find it.
