How High Achievers Find Their Purpose Fast and Break Free From Self Doubt Now. Life coach Zerina Derveni joins Janice Becker, to share strategies for self-discovery, emotional intelligence, and overcoming self-doubt.

Zerina shares her journey from climbing the corporate ladder to creating her boutique coaching practice, guiding women through the four stages of self-discovery: awareness, discovery, self-love, and mastery. Together, we discuss how to prioritize self-care without guilt, why clarity comes from action instead of overthinking, and how emotional intelligence (EQ) and adaptability (AQ) transform leadership and relationships.

If you’ve ever felt stuck or held back by self-doubt, this episode will give you the strategies and encouragement to break free and step into your highest potential.

Topics we cover in this episode:

The awakening that shifted Zerina’s career path

Overcoming fear and limiting beliefs

Journaling, gratitude, and self-care as daily tools

Building a value system as your compass

The power of emotional intelligence (EQ) in leadership and relationships
