1 hour 5 minutes

Have you ever felt like you were doing all the “right things” in your business or career but still weren’t seeing the growth, fulfillment, or balance you longed for? Do you sometimes wonder if success means sacrificing your health, relationships, or peace of mind? What if the problem isn’t that you’re not working hard enough—but that you’re working out of alignment with your true purpose?

In this episode, Taylor Quigg, knows that struggle all too well. After climbing the corporate ladder and checking all the boxes of conventional success, she realized something was missing: authentic alignment between her work, her values, and the life she wanted to live. That discovery fueled her mission to help others break free from the cycles of burnout, overachievement, and chasing external validation.

Taylor is more than just a coach—she’s a guide who blends personal experience, professional insight, and a deep passion for helping people live lives of clarity, confidence, and purpose. Through her work, she empowers others to stop outsourcing their worth, reconnect with what truly matters, and build businesses and lives that feel as good on the inside as they look on the outside.

In this conversation, Taylor shares her own journey of transformation, the lessons she’s learned about aligning ambition with authenticity, and practical strategies for anyone who feels stuck in the tension between success and fulfillment.

Get ready for a powerful discussion that will challenge you to rethink what achievement really means—and inspire you to design a life and business that are truly your own.

Quotes:

“You can really do whatever you want to do, and you can change the course of your life with just a simple yes in one direction.”
“We think we have to have, with social media, this huge following to have an influence. But you can have an influence in your community. You have an influence in your house.”
“There’s so much to learn just hanging out and doing life together. I guess I’ve taken more of an unschooling approach without even realizing it.”

Takeaways:

Reevaluate your approach to education and parenting: Are you allowing your children to pursue their interests and thrive outside of traditional academic expectations?

Practice vulnerability and seek community: If you’re facing a challenge, consider sharing your story to connect with others and reduce feelings of isolation.

Teach and model empathy: Look for opportunities to help your children (or yourself) understand and support others, especially those facing visible or invisible challenges.

Conclusion:

In this episode, Taylor’s story reminds us of the power of resilience, the importance of community, and the value of forging our own paths—whether in education, business, or personal growth. By embracing vulnerability, advocating for ourselves and others, and nurturing empathy in our families, we can create lives filled with purpose and connection. Taylor’s journey is a testament to the fact that, no matter the challenges we face, we have the ability to adapt, inspire, and make a meaningful impact on those around us.
