Episode 116: If you feel behind, unmotivated, or like your “old dream” stopped fitting—this episode will help you reframe the identity panic and keep showing up without pretending you’re fine.

Amanda Powers shares a raw solo update on the millennial career crisis, identity loss, and what happens when the life you built stops fitting. From feeling behind (tech issues, family stress, work overload) to the reframe that changed everything: "when the path you fought so hard for becomes more of a cage than a calling, it’s not failure—it’s growth ."

If you’re navigating a career pivot, burnout, or a “who am I now?” season, this episode is your reminder: you don’t have to be perfect to keep going.
