163. From Burnout to Alignment: Inner Child Healing with Adrienne Leigh
What happens when the business you worked so hard to build no longer feels like the life you want to live?In this episode of Alignment Academy, Kristen sits down with Adrienne Leigh, a serial entrepreneur, business coach, and host of Authentically Human, for an honest conversation about burnout, inner child healing, and finding the courage to choose a different path.After building a successful beauty business in Texas, Adrienne found herself overwhelmed, disconnected, and dreading the very thing she had created. She shares how a retreat in Costa Rica, consistent inner work, and learning to trust herself helped her release external validation, sell her business, and create a life with more freedom and fulfillment.Together, Kristen and Adrienne explore the fear of rejection, judgment, and being seen, including that familiar worry that showing up and promoting yourself makes you “annoying.” They share what self-soothing looks like in practice and why healing doesn’t mean waiting for fear to disappear before taking action.This episode is a reminder that you can feel the fear without letting it take the steering wheel. Sometimes, the next chapter begins when you stop proving yourself and start listening to yourself.In this episode, we explore:Why a successful business can still feel out of alignment.Releasing the need for approval and external validation.Inner child wounds around rejection, judgment, and visibility.Meditation, journaling, and self-soothing as everyday practices.Taking action before you feel completely ready.Choosing freedom, community, and a life that feels good to live.If this conversation resonates, follow Alignment Academy, leave a rating, and share it with someone navigating their own next chapter.✨ New episodes every Monday.🌟 WORK WITH KRISTEN 💫💫 Join Alignment Academy the Membershiphttps://alignmentacademy.my.canva.site/alignment-academy-the-membership🌴 Join Kristen and Daniela in PeruA retreat in the Sacred Valley from February 22 to March 1, 2027.https://www.danielagil.love/peru-with-kristen-such🧘 MEDITATIONS & HEALING RESOURCES🌿 Calling in Clients & Abundance Meditationhttps://stan.store/kristensuch💫 Healing Your Inner Child Meditationhttps://adept-composer-890.kit.com/products/inner-child-meditation-3-0✨ Discover Your Inner Child Block (Quiz)https://quiz.tryinteract.com/#/685efd5911f6a55d4d7bc74cABOUT THE GUESTAdrienne Leigh is a serial entrepreneur and business coach who helps service-based entrepreneurs launch and grow their businesses.
