How do you get out of your own way and live a life you love, no matter what you've been through? How do you stop merely surviving and start truly enjoying life? Welcome to Get Out and Live—a space that goes deeper than the usual "build your dream life" conversation. The reality is that self-development doesn't happen in a bubble, and we can't talk about personal growth without discussing the real-world obstacles, systems, and cultures that shape our journeys.

    From Ironman to Entrepreneur: Trusting Your Gut & Building an Aligned Life w/ Hassan Esufally

    What does it really take to build an extraordinary life when you are still in the messy, uncertain beginning of it? In this episode of Get Out and Live, I’m joined by my former Cambridge classmate Hassan Esufally: an Ironman, the first Sri Lankan to complete a marathon on every continent, a traveler who has visited more than 90 countries, and now the founder of Abracadabra Adventures. But this conversation is not just a highlight reel. It’s about the build phase: that in-between season where you are trying to create something meaningful, taking action before you have all the proof, and figuring out how to trust yourself when the path ahead is not completely clear. Hassan shares the mindset and practices that helped him achieve five major goals in five years—and how he is now applying those same lessons to building a heart-centered travel company from the ground up. We talk about visualization, mentors, persistence, listening to your gut, and why some of the choices that looked random or even backwards at the time ended up becoming the exact breadcrumbs that prepared him for the life and business he is creating now. We also get into the deeper side of achievement: what happens when you have spent years trying to prove yourself, why external success cannot be the whole foundation, and how to keep moving toward big dreams without losing yourself along the way. If you are in a season of building, pivoting, starting over, or trying to trust that the small steps you are taking will eventually add up to something bigger, I think you will really love this one.

    Breaking Free from Societal Expectations, Turning 30, and Creating a Life You Truly Love with Jules Wright

    What does it actually take to stop living according to everyone else’s timeline and start creating a life that feels true to you? In this first guest episode of Get Out and Live, I’m joined by Jules K. Wright: a life coach, surfer, yoga teacher, digital nomad, and all-around inspiring human who helps women in their late twenties and thirties unravel the pressure of what life “should” look like and reconnect with what they actually want. Jules has spent the last decade breaking away from conventional expectations and building a life around freedom, travel, and purpose  — and helps other women do the same. In this conversation, we talk about everything from the pressures around turning 30, to choosing a non-linear path, to the fear of being seen online, to what surfing can teach us about confidence, resilience, and surrender. We also get into what it looks like figuring out your purpose when you don’t have the answers yet, when you’re trying different things, and when you’re wondering whether you’re behind. Jules shares how to get quiet and tune into you, and what questions to ask to reconnect with yourself and begin uncovering the next steps. If you’ve always felt like there was something more out there for you, like you weren’t meant for the conventional path but you’re not quite sure how to get there and need a bit of inspiration, this episode is here to help. In this episode, we dive deep into: Jules’ story and how she built her business and unique path, step by stepEmbracing a non-traditional path and overcoming societal pressuresNavigating the “turning 30 freakout”Choice Paralysis: Releasing the pressure to have all the answersClimbing "Cringe Mountain": Overcoming the fear of being seen and posting onlineBuilding a coaching business and creating a sense of purpose in your workThe importance of clarity and aligned actionJules’ final advice on how to get out of your own way and live a life you love CONNECT WITH JULES: Instagram - @juleskwright Website - juleskwright.com Sign up to the email list to get the free self-guided workbook, meditations, and journal prompts mentioned in the episode!

    Finding My Way After Trauma: The Reality of Healing, Feeling Behind, and Creating My Dream Life

    In the first ever episode of Get Out and Live, I’m sharing the story behind why this podcast exists and what it has looked like for me to find my way after trauma, depression, PTSD, self-doubt, and years of feeling behind. This episode is about the reality of healing, the shame of not being where you thought you’d be, and the long, nonlinear process of coming back to yourself. I talk about the ways I coped, the moments that changed everything, and what happened when I stopped trying to skip straight to my dream life and started learning how to actually live again. Because healing matters. But there is more beyond healing, too. If you’ve ever felt behind, lost, disconnected from yourself, or like life took you off the path you thought you were on, I hope this episode reminds you that there is nothing wrong with you — and that it’s never too late to start again. Content note: This episode includes discussion of sexual assault, trauma, depression, PTSD, and toxic relationships. Please take care of yourself while listening. In this episode, I talk about: Responding to trauma through overachieving, numbing, and chasing big goalsFeeling behind while struggling with depression and PTSDWhy there is no “right” way to respond to traumaHow I found my way back to myself after years of feeling disconnectedLearning to receive support instead of doing everything aloneBreathwork, parts work, and the tools that helped me through depressionHow last year’s “failed” experiment became the beginning of living againCreating new goals based on alignment and joy rather than external validationBuilding my dream life from a stronger, more grounded foundation FOLLOW MILLY & THE PODCAST: Milly - https://www.instagram.com/emilystuebing/ Podcast - https://www.instagram.com/getoutandlivepodcast/ APPLY TO BE A GUEST: https://forms.gle/9Xa7B3hgCRtKgwNaA Mentioned in the episode: Last year’s dream life experiment (watch on YouTube)

    Day 1 of the dream life experiment | my story & how I set up the experiment

    After years of depression and trauma, I got to the point where I was done getting in my own way and playing small when I knew there was a bigger life waiting for me if I just went for it already. So, I decided to turn my life into a one-year experiment and go after my biggest goals to see what would happen when I stopped holding myself back. This episode is where it all began — how I set it up, what I was struggling with, and the imperfect path that led me here.… plus a quick update from me now that it’s six months later. So much has already changed (new home base, new business, new mindset) and I’m finally launching this podcast to share the full story. If you’ve ever felt stuck, behind, or like you just can’t get out of your own way, this one’s for you. You’re not behind, and you can change your life.
