Have you ever reached the top of the ladder only to wonder if it was against the wrong wall? 


In this episode, I talk with Cortney McDermott about transforming a life of "miserable success" into one of true fulfillment. Cortney shares her journey from living a life that checked all the societal boxes to realizing it left her feeling empty. We explore how she transitioned from corporate success to authentic living by releasing societal constructs and embracing inner intelligence. We discuss the challenges of letting go, the power of intuition, and practical ways to disrupt limiting patterns. Cortney also explains the science behind deep listening and how to work with your body and mind to uncover fulfillment.


Dive into Cortney’s transformative insights and discover how to tune into your inner intelligence.
