What if the path you thought was the dream… no longer fit who you’re becoming?
In this powerful episode, I sit down with Dr. Jessica Day, a passionate chiropractor and purpose-led business owner, to talk about the pivots she didn’t plan for — and the resilience it took to stay true to herself through every twist.
From leaving a secure practice, to launching a partnership, and then making the bold move to go fully solo — all while planning her wedding — Jess shares how she stayed grounded in her deeper “why” and built a business aligned with her heart, not just her head.
This conversation is for the woman standing at a crossroads, feeling the nudge to pivot, but afraid to let go of what’s “safe.” It’s proof that the most aligned version of your life often comes after the unexpected detours.
We talk about:
Why success doesn’t always feel fulfilling
What it’s like to pivot a business — more than once
The mindset that helped her keep going through uncertainty
Balancing entrepreneurship, big life changes, and personal growth
Redefining alignment and building a purpose-led practice
Encouragement for any woman who’s scared to let go and start again
