289: What if success isn't about climbing higher, but about getting closer to yourself?

In this episode, I sit down with Daria Burke-former CMO, writer, and possibility model-to talk about choosing alignment over ambition, creating space to heal, and honoring your gifts even when they don't align with the highest accolades.

We talk about her bold decision to step away from high-powered titles, how somatic practices helped her reconnect with herself, and why radical honesty became the foundation of her memoir Of My Own Making.

We Also Talk About…

Why Daria chose to step away from high-powered roles to focus on healing and storytelling
What it means to give yourself permission not to want certain accolades
How to meet high expectations while giving yourself grace
How somatic practices can help your healing
Why being unrelatable is a good thing
