This conversation explores what happens when meaningful work starts to disconnect you from yourself.

Brandy Walker shares her journey from service-driven burnout to rebuilding her life through alignment, self-trust, and intentional action.

Key themes:

  • Founder burnout and identity loss
  • Redefining success and “good work”
  • Trusting internal signals over external validation
  • Navigating forced career pivots
  • Building a life that actually feels aligned

This episode is for:

  • Founders feeling drained despite doing meaningful work
  • Anyone navigating a career shift or identity transition
  • Leaders questioning their current path

Why it’s worth listening:

Because sometimes the problem isn’t your work.
It’s that you’ve outgrown the version of yourself doing it.
