We've all heard the word burnout, but what if what you're actually experiencing is something deeper—like betrayal?

In this episode, I sit down with Lora Cheadle, attorney, speaker, and transformational coach, to talk about what's really going on when we hit emotional and energetic walls in business. Lora's own journey through multiple career pivots and life-altering experiences led her to discover that many of the feelings we label as burnout are actually rooted in unmet expectations and a ruptured sense of identity—what she calls betrayal.

Blending legal strategy with soul-level healing, Lora shares her revolutionary framework, FUEL UP, for recovering from burnout and betrayal so you can reclaim your identity, confidence, and power. Whether you've been feeling resentful, exhausted, or just plain stuck, this conversation is the reframe you didn't know you needed.
