Wake Up Call

038: Permission to Leave the Path That No Longer Serves You with Lauren Ansley


Listen Later

Are you on a path that doesn’t align with what you want anymore? So many of us are action-takers in pursuit of our dreams, but we don’t always have grace with ourselves when that dream changes.

In today’s episode, Lauren Ansley is here to share her journey of selling her home to pursue full-time entrepreneurship as a comedian, accidentally building a business she didn’t enjoy, and now finding an exciting new job that lights her up. Lauren is a stand-up comedian, emcee, show producer, speaker, and entrepreneur with 15+ years of event planning and marketing experience. She is based in Charlotte, North Carolina.

  • 3 Key takeaways from Lauren’s story:

    • Take small steps to build your self-worth in the pursuit of what you love. This might look like steadily increasing your prices, or going all in to launch something new.
    • Don’t put a strict timeline on yourself. Pursuing your passion and achieving your definition of success can take longer than you might think.
    • Passion projects do not have to become full time jobs. They can stay as a hobby or side hustle. You are not a failure if you don’t turn your passion projects into your full time job.
    • Welcome to the Wake Up Call Podcast with Alicia Hopkins (that’s me!). I work in corporate sales by day and am a personal development guru and Life Coach by night. My goal in this podcast is to share valuable and actionable tips on what I call the “Core Four” - mindfulness, movement, habits, and growth - so you can build a life that feels true to you. I will be interviewing people who have had a “wake up call” that their good-on-paper life wasn’t lighting them up, and what they did to change that. Join us every week for a new episode of the Wake Up Call Podcast with Alicia Hopkins!
