Let’s be real—hustle culture isn’t working. Ready to trade burnout for balance? If you’re nodding along, this episode is for you!

I recently had the chance to sit down with Cathy Heller for a live interview on Fishbowl Live, and it has so many good nuggets that they agreed to let me share it with you here!

Cathy has this amazing ability to challenge how we think about success and abundance, and as she's also been an incredible mentor for me, I’m thrilled to bring this conversation to the podcast.

In this episode, we talk about letting go of the hustle and embracing a more intentional, aligned way of living. Cathy shares so much wisdom from her book, Abundant Ever After, and we dig into how releasing control and staying authentic can unlock creativity, fulfillment, and opportunities you never expected.

This conversation is a powerful reminder that success isn’t about striving, trying, impressing, or grinding harder—it’s about trusting yourself, staying present, and building a life that feels meaningful and abundant.
