More clients than you can handle sounds like a dream—until you're doing the work of four people.

In this episode, Casey sits down with Lauren Bordon, founder of Your Trilingual Support, a company that offers fractional executive assistant services to international CEOs and high-net-worth individuals in three languages: English, French, and Spanish. Lauren shares her journey from working until 9 p.m. on Friday nights, doing the work of four people, to finally building a team and reclaiming her life.

This is a conversation about moving beyond the hustle and into sustainable success. Lauren opens up about the challenges of building a team when you're already overwhelmed, the process of finding the right people, and what shifted when she finally had space to breathe again. They explore the double roller coaster of entrepreneurship and international relocation, why every founder needs three key people from the start (accountant, tech support, and executive assistant), and the power of being vulnerable enough to let people know you're drowning.

"I think that burnout provides that door back to self." - Mónica Pina Alzugaray

In this episode, Casey sits down with Mónica Pina Alzugaray, the first woman who responded to Casey's call for conversations about change, burnout, and transformation when she first arrived in Barcelona. A year later, they reflect on Mónica's journey from burnout to vitality—and what's changed.

This is a conversation about moving beyond doing things because they look good and into doing things because they feel aligned. Mónica shares the moment on her beautiful couch with her cashmere sweater when everything looked perfect but felt empty, the pattern of performing through burnout recovery the same way she performed at work, and what shifted when she finally connected back to her soul. They explore how asking for help creates real relationships, why discomfort is the pathway to connection, and how burnout became a portal to a deeper, more authentic way of living.

Sometimes growth doesn't look like the next big adventure—it looks like finally planting roots.

In this episode of The Purpose Map™️ with Casey Berglund, Casey sits down with Debbie Rocket, Online Business Manager and creator of Rocket VA Academy—a training school for virtual assistants all around the world.

Debbie has been living her dream life in Barcelona for four and a half years. But as friends started leaving Spain and returning home, Debbie found herself at a crossroads: “should I stay or should I go?”

Debbie shares how she navigated the "five-year itch," the pull to chase something new, and the deeper truth that emerged—what she really wants is to plant roots, learn Spanish, call in her soulmate, and build a family in Barcelona.

This is a conversation about growth, maturity, knowing your worth, and the courage it takes to say: I'm staying. I'm watering my grass here. And I’m calling in my person for this next chapter.

What if AI isn't here to make you do more, but to help you remember who you are?

In this episode, Casey sits down with Stephany Oliveros, a researcher at the intersection of AI and psychology and co-founder of SheAI, a United Nations-supported initiative bringing women and diverse voices into AI development.

This conversation goes deep. Stephany shares why current AI is "pretty dumb" compared to the super intelligence coming our way, how to use AI for introspection without outsourcing your inner authority, and why real creativity means going beyond the first output. They explore the mental health upside and risks of AI companionship, the ways bias shows up in models (from medicine to disaster response), and why women must shape the data. Most importantly: knowledge about AI starts with knowledge about yourself.

Your Gentle Homework:

Notice when you reach for AI. Are you using it to avoid yourself or to arrive at your own conclusions? This week, try asking AI what perspectives you're missing instead of asking for the answer. Balance your AI use with moments in nature, in your body, and with the humans you love.

What if the thing you loved most about starting your business is the very thing you've delegated away?

In this episode, Casey sits down with Jane Scroggs, founder of two virtual assistant agencies supporting the property management industry. Jane brings her signature warmth and curiosity to a conversation about what happens when business growth pulls you away from the work that lights you up—and how to find your way back.

Jane is asking the questions so many entrepreneurs ask: "Am I still in alignment? What brings me joy now? How much of my day actually feels purposeful?" And instead of burning it all down (a temptation she admits to), she's learning to find the magic within the business she's already built.

This conversation is deeply reflective, practical, and full of "aha" moments. Casey guides Jane through a powerful exercise—recalling a childhood memory of flow—that reveals the golden thread running through her life and work: connection, curiosity, partnership, and creating "clubs" where people belong.

In this grounded conversation, we explore:

This episode is for any business owner who's wondering if they've lost themselves in the growth, who's feeling the weight of team management, or who's simply asking, "What now?" It's a reminder that sometimes the answer isn't out there—it's in remembering who you were when you started.

What if the wave realized it was always the ocean?

In this episode, Casey sits down with Chus Cartes for one of the most philosophical, raw, and grounding conversations of the series. This isn't your typical self-development talk—it's a gentle dismantling of everything we think we need to do in order to be okay.

Chus speaks from a place of deep remembering. She's walked through the fire of her own suffering—narcissism, competition, depression, isolation—and emerged on the other side not with answers, but with an embodied knowing that changes everything. Now, she guides women back to the truth that we are already whole, that nothing is broken, and that the very act of trying to control the ocean as a single wave is what creates our deepest pain.

This conversation will challenge you. It will slow you down. And if you let it, it will remind you that beneath all the striving, the tools, the journaling, the healing—you are already complete.

In this profound conversation, we explore:

This episode is for anyone who feels exhausted by trying to fix themselves. For anyone who's read all the books, done all the practices, and still feels like something is missing. For anyone ready to stop being the wave trying to control the ocean—and finally remember they are the water itself.

Content note: This episode includes discussion of depression, disordered eating patterns, and deep suffering. Please take care of yourself while listening.

What happens when ambition meets burnout—and what becomes possible on the other side?

In this episode, Casey sits down with Emmelin Boixareu, a Barcelona native, interior designer, and entrepreneur who turned her breaking point into a blueprint for building businesses that actually support life instead of consuming it.

Emmelin's story is one many high-achieving women will recognize: saying yes to every opportunity, tying her worth to her work, and pushing through until her body literally couldn't anymore. But what makes this conversation so valuable is what happened next—how she learned to set boundaries, honor her nervous system, and identify the real problems in her industry that she was uniquely positioned to solve.

Now running two successful businesses—La Troupe and Gigson Solutions—Emmelin has become what Casey calls "a bridge builder," connecting people, systems, and solutions in ways that create efficiency, humanity, and sustainable success.

In this honest conversation, we explore:

This episode is for anyone who has ever felt trapped in the loop of overworking, anyone recovering from burnout, or anyone wondering how to build a business that doesn't require you to sacrifice your well-being.

If you're ready to stop proving your worth through exhaustion and start building something sustainable, this conversation will light the way.

What if the path through grief could also be the path to flourishing?

In this episode, Casey sits down with Dr. Nicole Andreatta—psychologist, positive psychology expert, and fellow member of what they lovingly call "the dead parents club." Their conversation begins where many of the deepest connections do: in shared loss. But what unfolds is far from what you might expect from a conversation about grief.

Dr. A brings decades of research and personal experience to illuminate how we can honor our pain while still reaching toward joy, meaning, and authentic living. This isn't about bypassing the hard stuff or slapping on a gratitude practice when life feels impossible. It's about understanding the science of human flourishing—and discovering that your greatest strengths might be the very things that feel most effortless to you.

In this heartfelt conversation, we explore:

This episode is wise, grounding, and full of practical ways to remember that you are wired to flourish – even in the hardest of times.

If you're at a crossroads, give yourself permission to pause. To listen. To feel. To remember that you are not alone.

Meet our guest this week on The Purpose Map™️ with Casey Berglund — Liana Grieg.

Liana may joke about being in her “big country bumpkin era,” but beneath that playfulness lies a return to what matters — a reconnection in this slower season of life. As co-founder of Juno House Club in Barcelona, she’s been part of building more than just a space — it’s a sanctuary for women, weaving together wellness, creativity, and community. And now, her role is shifting.

Her story isn’t just about smoothie bowls, yoga, or the creation of Juno House Club. It’s about the bigger evolution of entrepreneurship. About how food, philosophy, and the spaces we choose to belong to can transform not only our bodies and businesses, but our very way of being.

In this conversation, we explore:

This episode is a gentle yet potent reminder that the way we live, nourish ourselves, and create space — physically and energetically — matters. Liana’s grounded wisdom and lived experience will leave you reflecting on your own rhythms, rituals, and what it means to belong.

Take a moment, settle in, and enjoy this beautiful conversation.

Healing is definitely NOT about pushing harder, cracking through tension, or forcing pain out. Healing begins with listening—listening to the body’s whispers, to the stories held in our nervous system, to the stillness before transformation.

Today’s guest, Dr. Teri Meyer, is more than a chiropractor with a master’s in neuroscience. She is a healer attuned to the subtle language of the body—a quiet revolutionary who bridges science and soul, helping people move from pain into harmony, from contraction into expansion.

In this conversation, you’ll hear how pain and posture reveal hidden stories, how the nervous system carries both trauma and possibility, and how opening the body expands our capacity to receive life itself.

We talk about:

This is not a conversation about fixing. It’s more about gently unfolding. It’s about remembering that our bodies know, even when our minds resist. For anyone “walking through the fog,” this episode offers not a quick answer, but gentle companionship on the path back home to yourself.

As you listen, notice what lands in your own body. Where do you feel contraction? Where is there space? Stay with it. Healing begins here.
