In this unscripted and unfiltered episode, I speak from the edge—where burnout ends and awakening begins.

This isn’t just a rant. It’s a reckoning.

I explore the deep discontent that comes from spending decades doing work that doesn’t challenge or honor me, and the painful realization that I’ve been hiding behind the dreams of others while abandoning my own. I unpack the shame of staying too long, the weight of unspoken expectations, and the quiet voice that keeps asking: Isn’t there more than this?

This is for anyone who's ever felt overqualified, underused, or invisible in the roles they’ve mastered. Anyone who’s tired of managing chaos they didn’t create. Anyone who’s afraid to step away—but even more afraid of staying the same.

Maybe this isn’t a breakdown.
Maybe it’s a vow to rise.
