EP 63 - EVOLVING WITH PURPOSE FT STAX
In the Season 5 finale of the Where Are We Podcast, the crew sits down with Boston native Stax for an honest and wide ranging conversation about growth, identity, and becoming your highest self.
Growing up in Dorchester as the oldest of four siblings, Stax talks about the pressure of being seen as the example in her family while still figuring life out in real time. She reflects on how her upbringing shaped her discipline early on, from participating in programs like dance, modeling, choir, and violin to developing a strong love for reading and learning that still influences her mindset today.
Throughout the episode, Stax opens up about the evolution of her perspective and the personal work it takes to grow into a new version of yourself. She shares how discovering books like The Four Agreements helped shift the way she looks at life, accountability, and how we interpret the world around us. That shift sparked a deeper journey of self awareness and pushed her to reevaluate relationships, expectations, and how she connects with people from earlier phases of her life.
The conversation also dives into the reality of evolving beyond your past. Stax speaks candidly about how personal growth can sometimes create distance between you and people who knew an older version of you, and how navigating that transition requires patience, reflection, and a willingness to redefine connections. At the same time, she emphasizes the importance of building routines, creating structure in adulthood, and staying intentional about personal development.
From stories about her childhood nickname and the origin of the name Stax to deeper reflections on purpose, identity, and self discovery, this episode blends humor, vulnerability, and real conversation. It’s a reminder that no one has everything figured out and that growth is an ongoing process.
