Are you basing life decisions on what YOU want or what someone else expects of you?

In this ep, Caitlin chats with Trang Nova, a former physio turned speaker and coach, about the messy, emotional, and liberating journey of walking away from a career that no longer fits.

Trang shares how one rainy run, and one very unlucky snail, sparked her quarter-life crisis. She opens up about why speaking became her most powerful healing tool, and how she navigated family expectations, rejection, and fear to leave the “safety” of a stable career, and step into something far more true.

If you've ever felt the pull to do something wildly different, but fear what others might say, this one's for you!

Tune in to learn:

• The snail moment that sparked Trang’s pivot from physio to personal development
• Why losing your professional identity can feel like grief—and how to move through it
• What she told her parents when they didn’t understand her career change
• The power of following your gut (even when it makes zero logical sense)
• The question she now asks to reframe fear before every keynote
• How she’s redefined “success” outside of job titles and degrees
• What one audience member said mid-keynote that nearly made Trang walk off stage (and what she did instead)
• The belief Trang leans on to show up online (even when she doesn’t feel ready)
• What she's learned about visibility, vulnerability, and being seen
• How Trang built a practice of being visible, even when vulnerability felt risky
