In today’s episode, I’m joined by Susan Gates, transformation and soul purpose coach, breathwork facilitator, and host of Avoiding Average Podcast. She helps high-achieving women reconnect with their joy, purpose, and true self—especially after burnout.

We talk about her personal journey from corporate engineering to soul coaching, and how practices like breathwork, hiking, and astrology helped her come back to life. Susan shares how happiness became less about achieving and more about being—and how presence itself can be the portal to joy.
