The Journey Back to Self, Revealing U with Elise Russ
In this deeply reflective episode of Enterprise Confessional, Deshea sits down with Elise Russ, founder and creator of Enchanted with GLU, for a conversation that moves beyond business strategy and into the heart of personal rebirth. This episode is a pause—a moment of honesty about what happens when growth requires letting go, when healing becomes non-negotiable, and when success can no longer come at the cost of self-abandonment.
Together, Deshea and Elise explore the quiet ways burnout shows up through people-pleasing, overcommitment, and the inability to set boundaries. They share personal experiences of transitioning from constantly showing up for others to learning how to protect their energy, trust their intuition, and honor discomfort as part of the healing process. This conversation acknowledges that boundaries are not walls—they are acts of self-love, self-preservation, and self-respect.
Elise opens up about her journey through deep personal healing, loss, and self-discovery, describing a season of transformation where identity is shed and rebuilt—much like a butterfly emerging into a new phase of life. She speaks candidly about recognizing her spiritual gifts, learning to trust her inner voice, and embracing a path that no longer fits inside boxes or external expectations. Deshea mirrors this experience by sharing her own evolution, including unlearning people-pleasing, reclaiming autonomy, and redefining success from the inside out.
This episode also explores how personal healing directly impacts professional growth. From managing energy and preventing creative burnout to releasing perfectionism and learning how to create from a genuine, unfiltered place, Deshea and Elise unpack what it truly means to build a life and business that feel aligned. They touch on intuition, self-discipline, emotional honesty, and the courage it takes to say “no” without guilt.
This episode is for founders, creatives, and leaders who are in a season of becoming—who are learning that inner work is the foundation for sustainable success, and that honoring yourself is not a setback, but a breakthrough.
