Here’s what no one tells you about creating a meaningful life and career: it’s never as straightforward as it seems. A great life means following the breadcrumbs of what you love, staying curious, and being willing to fail, looking a little flaky, and staying true to yourself -- even when it all feels a little bit scary. Because when you’re brave enough to let go of old dreams and what’s no longer aligned, you make room for something even better.

High functioning anxiety and the power of a pivot with Alyssa Cotten

Join Stacie as she interviews Alyssa Cotten, who pivoted from being a business/finance undergrad to becoming a mental health counselor in what she thought was her “dream job” to then becoming her own boss – where she combined her business degree with her counseling degree to create her own private practice.

In 2020, the pandemic hit, and she then pivoted yet again. She didn’t have ANY social media for a decade up to this point, but she started her online business in 2020 and went all in on creating an online presence on Instagram and YouTube.

We also talk about high functioning anxiety, what it looks like, how it can keep you from creating your most meaningful work and life – and how to begin to heal it.
