What if the life you've been chasing isn't actually the life you want?

In this episode of At the Table, Dr. Megan Epps and Dr. Skylar explore what it really means to build a rich life—and it has nothing to do with your bank account. They unpack how social media, culture, and outside expectations quietly shape our definition of success, and why so many high-achieving women reach their goals only to realize they still feel burned out and unfulfilled.

Together, they discuss how to identify your core values, perform a life audit, and create a vision that's actually your own. You'll learn why money is a tool rather than the destination, how to reclaim your time, and why you're probably much closer to your dream life than you realize.

Whether you're an entrepreneur, leader, parent, or simply someone who feels pulled toward something more, this conversation will help you stop chasing someone else's definition of success and start intentionally creating a life built around purpose, freedom, health, relationships, and adventure.

In this episode, you'll learn:

• Why defining your values changes every major decision you make
• How to create your own version of a "rich life"
• The hidden cost of hustle culture and burnout
• Why time—not money—is often your most valuable resource
• How to perform a simple life audit that reveals what really matters
• Practical ways to align your finances, calendar, and goals with your priorities
• Why fulfillment comes from living intentionally, not impressing others

What if the secret to becoming more resilient isn't avoiding hardship, but intentionally embracing it?

In this episode of At the Table, an Innate Women podcast, Dr. Megan Epps and Dr. Skylar explore why choosing difficult things can transform the way we respond to life's inevitable challenges. While we can't control everything that happens to us, we always have a choice in how we respond—and that choice shapes the person we become.

Together, they discuss the difference between chosen discomfort and unexpected suffering, why building resilience before life demands it matters, and how intentionally stepping outside your comfort zone strengthens your confidence, emotional regulation, and ability to navigate adversity.

Whether you're facing a difficult season, striving for personal growth, or simply wanting to become mentally stronger, this conversation will challenge the way you think about hardship and empower you to see it as an opportunity for growth rather than something to avoid.

In this episode, you'll learn:

• Why choosing hard things builds grit and resilience
• The difference between chosen discomfort and unavoidable suffering
• How your response—not your circumstances—shapes your future
• Why resilience is built long before you need it
• Practical ways to develop mental toughness without becoming emotionally hardened
• How embracing challenge can lead to greater confidence, purpose, and fulfillment

At Innate Women, we believe growth doesn't happen by accident. It happens through intentional choices that shape who you're becoming. Our mission is to help women cultivate lives of purpose, resilience, adventure, and authentic leadership—one intentional decision at a time.
