Episode 5: In this episode, Dr. Lea takes a deep dive into the idea of success—who defines it, and more importantly, are you living by your own definition or someone else’s? She unpacks the invisible scripts that shape our goals, the pressure to measure up to society’s expectations, and the toll it takes when we chase a version of success that doesn’t truly fulfill us. Through personal reflections and real-life examples, Lea explores how to break free from outdated narratives, redefine success on your own terms, and start crafting a life that actually feels right for you. If you've ever felt like you're living a life you didn’t sign up for, this episode is for you.

Takeaways

Are you truly living out your purpose or did you settle?
Most of us are following a script that we didn't write.
Just because something's handed to you doesn't mean it's the right script for your life.
A script written by someone else won't always fit.
If you're feeling unfulfilled, it's time to edit the script.
When we blindly follow the traditional success script, we experience voids.
You have to define success for you.
Surround yourself with expanders who inspire you.
It's never too late to pursue your dreams.
Journal your desires as if everything is possible.
