We spend almost 90,000 hours of our lives working. Why wouldn’t we want those hours to feel meaningful? Spacious? Even joyful?

If your definition of success is shifting, you’re not alone. You’re not losing ambition. You’re refining it.

That’s the conversation we’re having in Reinvention Roadmap Part 2 — what success looks like when it’s built from the inside out. 🤍

Key Takeaways from Today’s Episode

Once you start questioning corporate life—or step away from it entirely—the definition of success you inherited often stops working.

Titles, metrics, and external validation no longer tell the story.

In this conversation, Jen and I discuss…
+ How success begins to shift toward energy, values, joy, and sustainability—and why that redefinition rarely happens alone
+ The moment our values came into focus, and how creativity and spaciousness became signals
+ The role community played in reflecting back on who we were becoming

From relationships to letting go of old scorecards, this episode is about success that feels aligned, human, and authentic.
