Meet my guest, former COO of the mega-brand Bossbabe and my past client, Marissa Liesenfelt. She shares her incredible journey from corporate success to finding her clear vision.

She shares her journey of stepping away from structured corporate roles, facing the unknown, and discovering a life aligned with her true vision. Key Insights for Entrepreneurs: Finding and Trusting Your Clear Vision: How Marissa recognized that a successful career on paper wasn’t fulfilling her in real life and the steps she took to clarify her true purpose.

In this episode, I’m diving into the journey from self-gaslighting to building new patterns of positivity through powerful affirmations. After last week’s episode, your responses blew me away, and it’s clear that more of us need these tools in our everyday lives.

In this deeply personal episode, I dive into a raw and honest exploration of a year marked by setbacks, self-discovery, and the struggle to find my way back to clarity. As a mindset coach, it’s ironic to admit that I struggled with mental health, but it’s important to share my truth, vulnerabilities, and the lessons learned along the way. Today I talk about: The irony of losing clarity as a mindset coach and the journey to regain it. How the sudden closure of a PR campaign led to unexpected emotional and financial setbacks. The importance of self-care rituals and routines in healing from depression. A raw and honest reading from my journal, where I visualize and describe what depression looked like for me. Join me as I share my story, my struggles, and the steps I took to reconnect with myself, hoping it resonates with those navigating similar paths.
