What if the life you were chasing was never actually your dream to begin with?
In this powerful episode of Glass Ceilings & Sticky Floors, I sit down with Adriana D’Onofrio—a life and business coach for dreamers, doers, and trailblazers—who left behind the corporate hustle to build a soul-aligned life on her own terms. From designing couture gowns in Rome to running a hospitality division in NYC, Adriana’s story is a whirlwind of ambition, burnout, and radical realignment.
We talk about:
💥 How burnout cracked open her path to entrepreneurship
💥 The power of feminine energy and redefining ambition
💥 Why your "dream job" might just be a sticky floor in disguise
💥 How to ask the real questions that lead to lasting fulfillment
💥 The journal prompts that changed her life (and can change yours too)
Whether you're climbing the ladder or building your own, this episode will challenge you to rethink what success really means—and how to get there without losing yourself in the process.
