UNMASKED

Olga Karpman

THE SHOW ABOUT WHAT LIES BENEATH Everything can look right on the outside — the life, the roles, the success — and still, something inside shifts. Nothing is obviously wrong, yet something no longer feels true. Unmasked is a podcast by Olga Karpman — entrepreneur, creator, and co-founder of the Dream Big Podcast — exploring what happens beneath it all. After years of building, creating, and speaking with high performers and world-class thinkers, this space turns inward, toward the deeper layers of growth and truth. Each episode moves beyond achievements and into identity, relationships, inner conflict, and the moments that quietly change everything. You’ll hear a mix of conversations with entrepreneurs, creators, and thought leaders, alongside solo episodes — raw, reflective, and personal. If you feel like you’ve outgrown a version of yourself or sense that something in your life is shifting, this space will meet you there. Because what we question, avoid, or don’t yet understand is often where real change begins. Follow Unmasked: Instagram @unmaskedpod YouTube @Unmasked.OlgaKarpman

    004: The Dark Night of the Soul: When Everything You Built Stops Feeling True

    There is a phase in your spiritual journey where you feel the loneliest — where you stop trusting your own voice, your intuition, the people around you, and it feels like everything is quietly collapsing. People call it the dark night of the soul. And almost no one explains it in a way you can actually feel.  In Episode 4 of UNMASKED, Olga Karpman goes beneath the surface of this phase — the one that doesn't arrive all at once, but slowly, like a whisper. The one where the life you built, the roles you play, the identity you wore, suddenly stop feeling true. Where going back no longer works, and there isn't a clear way forward yet. This isn't a quick-fix episode. Olga doesn't promise answers. What she offers is rarer: language for what you're feeling, the reassurance that you are not broken, and one simple practice — observe — that can carry you through the heaviest moments. If you are in this right now, or someone you love is, this episode is a place to stay. To breathe. To remember you're not alone. In this episode: Why the dark night of the soul is so often mistaken for depressionThe caterpillar and the cocoon — why you can only move forwardHow to be with grief, old wounds, and emotions that resurfaceThe ‘observe’ practice — sitting on the mountain above your own feelingsHow to ask the people you love for space without losing themA note: Olga is not a medical professional and this is not medical advice.

    002: I’m Not Who I Was Anymore

    There’s a moment in life that’s hard to explain. Nothing is falling apart, everything still looks good on the outside, but something inside of you quietly shifts. https://www.olgakarpman.com/ In this episode, Olga Karpman opens up about that exact moment — the one where you realize you’re no longer who you used to be, even if your life hasn’t visibly changed. She shares her own experience of walking away from a successful business, letting go of a long-held identity, and entering a space where there were no clear answers, only a quiet inner voice that became impossible to ignore. This is not a conversation about fixing anything. It’s a space to recognize what you might already be feeling but haven’t been able to put into words. If you’ve ever felt like your life still works but no longer feels true, this episode is for you. At the end of this episode, there is a short guided process to help you pause, reconnect, and begin to hear yourself again. Take your time with it. If this episode resonated with you, follow the show so you don’t miss what comes next. This is not a one-time conversation, it’s a process that unfolds over time.
