Hard Lessons, New Beginnings, and UNBLOCKED Confidence: Finding Clarity in Career Paths and Career Pivots

Welcome to the very first episode of the UNBLOCK Yourself Podcast.

We are kicking things off by sharing a little more about who we are, where we have been, and why we care so much about helping people live and work with more intention.

In this episode, Greg interviews Whitney about her journey — growing up with a lot of change and challenge, building a career as a young single mom, and spending years chasing success. 

We talk about survival mode, work, identity, and the hard (but good) decision to stop living on autopilot and start making choices that feel real and meaningful.

We believe you can get UNBLOCKED. We believe you can create a life and career that actually feels like yours.

And it starts by getting honest about where you are, and what you really want.

In this conversation, Whitney shares:

• Growing up fast and learning to survive
• Building a career without a real sense of "why"
• The cost of being valued for the wrong things
• What it takes to step out of autopilot and into something real

This is Whitney's story. Thanks for being here for it.

Every other Thursday, we talk to people who got UNBLOCKED. You'll hear stories about finding clarity, career paths, career pivots and living with intention. Our guests tell us how they realized something had to change, made bold moves, and built lives that feel more aligned, more alive, and more intentional. We’ll share some of our own stories too, because we’re right here, figuring it out like everyone else.
