Ep. 157 Becoming Who You Were Meant to Be: The Truth About Purpose, Self-Abandonment, and In Pursuit

Today’s episode is a special one. I hand the mic over to my friend Angela for a deep, no-holding-back conversation about my book In Pursuit. We get into the writing process, the messy middle, the self-abandonment patterns we carry, and what it really takes to live a life that feels like home to yourself. 

This isn’t an interview as much as it is a soul-level conversation between two coaches about purpose, discomfort, emotional mastery, and the wild courage required to become who you were meant to be. If you’ve ever felt like you were “living in black and white,” chasing the next achievement, or waiting for the rulebook that everyone else seems to have…this episode is for you.

In This Episode, We Explore:

• The limiting beliefs and inner narratives I had to rewrite in order to write In Pursuit
• What “the prison” looks like and how to know when you’re living in it
• Understanding the Arrival Fallacy and Arrival Addiction
• Why so many of us abandon ourselves on the way to our goals
• The nervous-system side of people-pleasing, boundaries, and emotional discomfort
• How to stop outsourcing your worth and start building self-trust
• What it truly means to succeed without abandoning yourself
• What I’m personally “in pursuit” of right now
• What it means to live an unblocked life
