Starting over isn’t easy — whether it’s a career shift, a life transition, or rediscovering who you are after change. It takes courage, vulnerability, and a whole lot of self-compassion.

In this heartfelt conversation, I chat with coach and global citizen Alessia Gandolfo about what it really looks like to begin again — one small, brave step at a time. We talk about embracing uncertainty, trusting your own pace, and how to find purpose when the path ahead feels unclear.

If you’ve ever wondered whether it’s too late to start over (or if you’re strong enough to try), this episode will remind you that courage doesn’t always roar — sometimes, it’s simply the quiet decision to take the next step forward.

In this conversation, Alessia and I discussed:

• Alessia’s bold move to Australia — and what called her back home
• The power of taking “one brave baby step” each day, and what she learned from finding work, making new friends and dating Australian men
• Why starting over can feel harder when you’re surrounded by familiarity
• How clarity in business often begins with reconnecting to your message and finding what lights you up
• Finding purpose through alignment, intuition, and soft self-leadership - having a go and then evolving as we go
