When Success Isn’t Enough: The Turning Point That Sparked a Corporate Exit (#107)

Have you ever reached the top of your career and thought, “Is this really it?” You’re not alone. We’re joined by former HR executive turned entrepreneur, Brittany Martin, Founder of BeKindWorks. She shares the pivotal moment she realized success in corporate wasn’t enough, how she got herself laid off, and the steps she took to design a business that aligned with her values.

We dive into how overachievement can both fuel and sabotage your growth, what it really takes to prepare financially for your corporate exit, and how kindness in the workplace can transform culture and results.

If you’ve been craving more purpose, freedom, and fulfillment in your work, this episode will inspire you to stop settling and start building the career and life you actually want.

We discuss:

✅ The mindset shift that helped Brittany finally make her corporate exit and what it means to truly be content in life 
✅ How to balance ambition and self-compassion as an entrepreneur
✅ How she got her support system on board with her corporate exit
✅ The financial and emotional prep that made her leap possible 
✅ Why kindness is a powerful driver of culture and performance (If you’re not working in a kind environment, this is a reminder that sometimes the grass is greener elsewhere.)
