273: Is This Sustainable? A Conversation on Ambition, Identity & Doing Life Differently


Listen Later

Leaving a stable career to start your own business? Terrifying. Doing it while raising kids, managing a household, and trying to keep your sanity? Even scarier.

Anita Tulsiani and Helena Kelly, co-founders of Sagely & Co., know that struggle first hand. They left corporate jobs, took a leap into entrepreneurship, and redefined what success looks like—on their terms. In this episode, they open up about:

  • How they tested their partnership before officially going all in
  • The financial realities of leaving a steady paycheck for business ownership
  • Why work-life balance isn’t about doing it all—it’s about doing what actually matters
  • How they overcame fear, uncertainty, and the pressure to “prove” themselves

If you’re feeling stuck in a job that no longer fits—or just wondering if you can really have both ambition and family—this episode is for you.
