Behind My Hiatus: Real Talk About Growth
Are you really living at your highest potential or just coasting in the illusion of “busy”?
After a six-month hiatus, I’m pulling back the curtain on why I stepped away from the mic, the hard lessons I learned about business, identity, and alignment, and how those shifts have redefined the way I coach high-performing men and women. In this episode, I share the messy reality behind the scenes on why I hit pause, what it taught me about serving the right people, and what’s ahead as we rebuild with more clarity, impact, and purpose.
If you’re driven to rise above mediocrity in health, business, and life, this episode will reframe how you think about success, structure, and lasting transformation.
