Show Notes

You shouldn't have to choose between career, happiness, and good health  - all three should go hand-in-hand. It takes a lot of courage to pull yourself out of a situation that isn't serving you, but the moment you prioritize your well-being above all else, you will achieve true success. 

In this episode, I am joined by Becca Powers, a motivational speaker, executive life coach, and author of the best-selling book Harness Your Inner CEO. Listen to our conversation, where she discusses her journey of valuing her self-worth and well-being while pursuing her passions. She shares her inspiring story of when she realized she was her own EO, as well as what motivated her to pursue entrepreneurship while balancing corporate life.

We also touch on the following: 

  • Taking a step back and reconsidering your career path and your passions
  • Asking “what if” questions that support your well-being and decision-making
  • Evolving while celebrating the achievements of the person you used to be
  • Kundalini yoga - the yoga of self-awareness
  • The inspiration behind the book Harness Your Inner CEO
  • Tips on how you can harness your inner CEO
