After nearly three decades in corporate leadership, Ebony Williams found herself at a crossroads. She was successful on the outside, yet internally she felt unfulfilled and misaligned. In this episode, Ebony shares her faith-led journey to leave the perceived safety of her corporate career and launch Alignée Shift, a transformational coaching practice grounded in helping others align with their God-given purpose and identity.

With wisdom rooted in Scripture and her life experiences, Ebony unpacks the spiritual signs of misalignment, the tension between comfort and calling, and the sacred process of discernment. She introduces her powerful A.L.I.G.N. framework: Assess, Liberate, Integrate, Guard, and Navigate. It is a powerful roadmap for those ready to courageously move from burnout to breakthrough and from comfort to calling.

Whether you're feeling stuck, seeking clarity, or simply curious about what it means to live a life truly aligned with God’s purpose, this conversation will encourage and equip you to take your next step with confidence and faith.
