After My Day Job

This episode isn’t about losing a job. It’s about losing an identity, an ego, and a sense of control. I went from leading multi-million dollar creative teams to making $63 a night bartending, and in that fall, I found something I’d been missing: clarity.“Starting Over” is about the mentality it takes to let go of denial, accept defeat without seeing yourself as a failure, and shift your vision toward redirection. It’s about building something new from the ground up, without the safety net of titles, salaries, or validation.If you’ve ever felt like life pressed reset on you, whether you were ready or not, this one’s for you.
