Episode Notes:
✨ Waitlist for 2027 Immersions
What happens when the identity you worked so hard to build no longer fits?
In this episode, Emily and Bree talk about:
→the “quantum leap of self-trust” that came with leaving the law
→how small “pebble” decisions built the capacity for one huge leap
→walking away from a career, identity, and law firm she had invested years into
→the difference between confidence and trusting yourself to figure it out
→why irritation and agitation can be important information instead of something to regulate away
→separating your worth from your work
→the grief that can come with making the right decision
→letting go of a professional identity without immediately replacing it with another label
→work wounds and why they follow us if we don’t tend to them
→what it means to ask, “How good can it get?” instead of only focusing on what could go wrong
→starting a podcast, giving a TEDx talk, and continuing to stretch into greater visibility
→the next dream Bree is finally ready to say out loud
This is a conversation about career identity, self-trust, work wounds, and having the courage to listen when the life you built starts whispering that it’s time for something else.
