In this episode, I’m joined by Julie Ciardi - founder of Ignite Her, author of 50 Not Finished, Human Design for Business expert and a woman who wakes up at 4 a.m. on purpose!

We talk about the moment she realised she couldn’t keep living a life that looked perfect on the outside but felt wrong on the inside and how she moved from guilt and external validation to true freedom and self-responsibility.

This episode is for the woman who is tired, overwhelmed or quietly falling apart… and needs hope, compassion and a path forward.

We explore:

• Why women outsource their happiness (and how to stop)
• How Julie navigated guilt, financial strain and staying true to her vision
• What self-responsibility actually means and how to avoid turning it into self-blame
• Discovering Human Design and moving from “this is nonsense” to “this is my work”
• How courage feels before it looks
• What “raising your frequency” means in real life, not woo woo
• Redefining success in the Era of the Individual
• And the one thing future-you will thank you for starting today
