Have you ever pursued something you thought was the answer to the curiosity you carried inside, only to discover it wasn't meant for you? That's the journey I explored and share in this deeply personal episode of Unbreakable Mind & Body.

After putting my online fitness brand to sleep, I dove headfirst into construction—an industry I'd always been fascinated by. Three jobs and 16 months later, I found myself processing the disappointment of multiple career setbacks. From hellish commutes to toxic environments and misleading job descriptions that promised "flexibility" but delivered 24/7 expectation, these experiences confirmed what was NOT right for me.

Some of my most valuable discoveries came to me through elimination. Summer of 2024 was a summer of uncertainty, and it became my sanctuary—bartending at a friend's restaurant, lounging by the pool, and giving myself permission to grieve a career path that didn't work out. This breathing room allowed me to reconnect with what truly brings me joy: in-person fitness and nutrition coaching.

This podcast itself represents this philosophy of authentic exploration. Unlike most content today, I'm not creating in an effort to inundate you with marketing. The Unbreakable Mind & Body podcast is simply a space for genuine connection and conversation.

Whether you're contemplating a creative project or considering returning to a previous industry, remember: if you have an itch, scratch it. If it disappoints, let it go. If it's amazing, keep going. Our paths aren't meant to be perfect—they're meant to lead us exactly where we need to be. What, if any, unexpected direction is calling to you?
