Loneliness is rising, burnout is spreading, and many of us are carrying emotional weight we rarely name. Whether it’s at work, in our relationships, or in the quiet corners of our own minds, people are struggling to stay grounded in a world that keeps pulling them in every direction.
In this episode, I step into the guest seat — joined by host Patrice Bonfiglio of The Burnout Club — to explore the emotional habits and inner narratives that shape how we show up. I share how engineering, theology, sociology, and leadership all converge in my work, and why simplifying the complex matters for people trying to navigate the ring of life.
We talk about workplace loneliness, identity, parenting, relationships, burnout, and the Script–Soul–Story framework that helps you rewrite your inner narrative. We also explore why Gen Z and Gen Alpha are hungry for purpose, why high capacity people burn out quietly, and how reflection helps us see ourselves and others more clearly.
If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure how to stay grounded when life feels heavy, this conversation is for you.
