EP106: I Got Robbed — and it Gave Me Back My Business

Episode Summary:

In this raw and revelatory episode, I share how getting literally robbed in Barcelona led to the most honest business clarity I’ve had in years. Stripped of my phone, my routines, and my digital reflexes, I was forced to sit with my own thoughts — and what came up wasn’t just discomfort, but truth.

I unpack the toxic grip of “pics or it didn’t happen” culture, the myth of clarity through consumption, and why most ambitious women are chasing goals they didn’t even choose.

If you’ve been feeling disconnected from your own ambition, this one will hit hard, and leave you asking better questions.

Quotable Quotes:

  • “If you don’t trust yourself to know what you want, someone can always sell you what they think you need.”
  • “How much of your business are you enjoying second hand? Waiting for someone’s else’s approval to make it feel real?”
  • “We’re so consumed with doing the ‘right’ things, we never stop to ask if they’re right for us.”
  • “The biggest problem? We tend to seek answers to questions we haven’t even articulated clearly for ourselves. So what happens? The marketers, content creators, coaches, and gurus articulate those questions for us. Then they work so hard to sell us the answer to that question.”
