She calls herself the “Queen of Pivots” (unofficial title, but fitting). Today, Laura Dionisio gets real about why change has shaped every bold move in her career and how embracing pivots turned into her life’s calling. In this deeply personal solo episode of The Pivot Point, Laura pulls back the curtain on her own career journey, from a cha-cha childhood that taught her change is inevitable, to high-achieving control-freak tendencies, to the New York assignment that cracked her wide open.

What started as a career curveball became a doorway into inner joy, personal development, and the boldest pivot of all: choosing a heart-led career.

She shares the messy middles, the panic attacks no one saw coming, and the surprising ways surrendering control led to greater alignment. Most importantly, she reveals how the frameworks she now teaches were born out of her own pivots and why she believes every ambitious high-achiever must see themselves as the leader of their own life.

If you’ve ever been “successful on paper” but quietly misaligned in your soul, this episode will light a fire under you to stop settling and start leading your life with heart.

What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

✔️ How Laura’s childhood shaped her fearless relationship with change

✔️ The double-edged sword of being “the planner” and why control can backfire

✔️ The messy New York assignment that forced her into presence (and joy)

✔️ The panic attacks that signaled it was time for inner work

✔️ Why personal development cracked open her career path to coaching

✔️ The three components of becoming the leader of your life “Proceed as if success is inevitable, because it is.

Ever felt like you’re doing everything “right” and still wondering, why does this feel so wrong? This week, I sat down with my dear friend Jenny Jansen to talk about the messy pivots that actually bring you back to yourself.

Jenny’s story is one for the books: she started out teaching fifth graders, realized the real work she loved was those heart-to-heart recess talks, and then walked straight into a full-on quarter-life crisis. We’re talking Starbucks mornings, late-night shifts, ugly cries on the couch, and a whole lot of surrender.

But here’s the thing, those two years of chaos became the foundation for everything she does now as a therapist and master coach. Jenny and I dive into what it actually looks like to choose yourself over and over again, even when your brain is screaming bad idea, and why asking for help is the most adult thing you can do.

This conversation is funny, raw, and packed with mic-drop wisdom about trusting your nudges, rewriting your “shoulds,” and pivoting into a life that feels not just aligned, but actually alive.

What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

✔️The real story behind Jenny quitting teaching with no Plan B

✔️How surrendering timing (again and again) changed everything

✔️Why following a “tiny nudge” (like a free podcast membership) can blow open your whole career

✔️The Adult Chair model, what it is, and why it matters if you’re pivoting

✔️How to know if you’re half-assing two things instead of full-assing one

✔️Why “should” is a dirtier word than the F-bomb“Every single minute we’re alive is an opportunity to pivot. You don’t have to wait for the universe’s permission slip.”

You’re not stuck because you don’t know what you want, you’re stuck because you won’t admit it out loud. The moment you do? Game-changer.

In this episode of The Pivot Point, I’m letting you in on the exact sliding-doors moment that shifted my life, from overthinking my way through spreadsheets (hi, Laura A) to flowing toward my dream life in New York City (hey, Laura B). Spoiler: I didn’t choose one path. I lived both.

We’re talking about the difference between circling the runway for two years versus getting crystal-clear and in motion in just a few months. If you’ve ever delayed a big career decision because you “needed a plan,” this one’s going to hit close to home.

This isn’t just a story about moving cities. It’s about learning to trust yourself without seeing the entire staircase. It’s about dropping the need to control every step and leaning into what your body, and your life, are already telling you.

Because success should feel good. What the hell is the point otherwise?

What You’ll Hear:

✔️How admitting what you want fast-tracks the path to getting it

✔️The difference between “Laura A” over-engineering life and “Laura B” going with the flow (and why you might be both)

✔️Three ways to cut through decision fatigue: trusted-friend reflection, the coin flip test, and body wisdom

✔️Why waiting until you know how is the number-one way to keep yourself stuck

✔️The sneaky ways fear dresses itself up as “responsibility” or “logic”

✔️How to take the first step even when you don’t have a five-step plan

“The fastest way to get what you want is to admit that you want it. Then? Let the plan go.”

Ever hit that point where you’re doing all the things, career, family, checklists on checklists, and still feel like something’s missing? That was Theresa. She was the glue holding everyone else together… until she realized she was unraveling.

In this episode, I sit down with empowerment coach Theresa Steighner, one of the OG inspirations for this podcast, who shares the real story behind her quiet unraveling and how one bold decision (hello, random retreat Google search) sparked a complete inner and outer life shift.

We go deep on what happens when you finally listen to that nudge that says, “There has to be more than this,” how healing your inner world changes everything in your outer world, and why self-care is not selfish, it’s strategic. If you’ve been asking yourself “What’s next?” but feel too depleted to even dream bigger, this episode is your warm wake-up call.

And yes, successful career pivots don’t start with a resume update. They start with self-care. This is your proof.

🎧 What You’ll Hear:

• ✔️How Theresa went from anxious autopilot to aligned and empowered (hint: it started with a yoga mat)
  he exact moment she knew something had to change, and why it felt “intolerable”

  
  What to do when guilt tries to block your self-care (yep, it will)
  

• ✔️How one retreat snowballed into a whole new career (and life)
  

• ✔️The game-changing question she used to make a major career decision (no spreadsheet required)
  

• ✔️Why your feelings, not just your 401(k), should shape your next move
  

• 💬 Quote to Remember: “I made the choice from a solid knowing. I knew where I felt valued. I knew where I felt like myself. And that’s where I stayed.”

Trying to pivot but low-key packing fear, guilt, and a spreadsheet for the ride? Yeah… let’s unpack that.

In this solo episode, I’m taking you behind the scenes of a real-life pivot moment, when I had to decide between a familiar job that made sense… and a terrifying, thrilling opportunity in New York that lit me up and freaked me out.

Spoiler: I tried to logic my way through it. Spreadsheets. Trade studies. Asking everyone but myself. And it didn’t work.

What I eventually realized? You can’t pack for a heart-led career pivot with tools designed to keep you safe. You need something deeper, tools that honor your inner leader. Tools like pause, discernment, faith… and maybe a good outfit or two.

If you loved Episode 3 – You Got the Dream Job… So Why Are You Still Anxious?, this one goes even deeper. Because naming the misalignment is one thing, moving through it takes a whole new set of tools.

📌 I also share more about that magical year in New York in Episode 2 – How to Make Life Feel Magical—Without Quitting Your Job or Moving to Bali.

This one’s for the high-achievers making all the “right” moves, and realizing they’re still stuck. If you’ve been spinning in indecision, this episode is the reset you didn’t know you needed.

One day I woke up and realized, I can’t do this anymore. Three days later, I quit. No safety net, no “perfect plan.” Just a deep knowing that it was time.

This episode is about that terrifying, exhilarating moment when the plan you thought you needed collides with the truth you can’t ignore. I always believed I’d have seven months of savings, a tidy business plan, and all the safety nets in place before leaving corporate. But real life? Real pivots? They don’t usually wait for perfect timing.

Here’s the messy, raw truth: the money wasn’t all there, the plan wasn’t polished, and my head was still yelling “you’re not ready.” But my body and my soul said otherwise. And when I finally stopped fighting myself and listened, I remembered that success doesn’t come from spreadsheets or timelines. It comes from betting on you.

What You’ll Hear

✔️ Why waiting for the “perfect plan” keeps you stuck

✔️ The sneaky signs your career is misaligned, like fatigue, disinterest, and dreading Mondays.

✔️ How investing in yourself builds the only real safety net you’ll ever need: belief in you.

✔️ The truth about making bold decisions without guarantees, and why it’s the powerful move.

✔️ A reminder that every major pivot starts with one simple, radical act: saying yes to you.

This isn’t just a pivot. It’s a reclamation.

If this episode hit you right in the gut, don’t just sit with it, act on it. Share it with a friend who’s secretly wondering if there’s more to life than their current job.
