In this clarity moment, Sam and I unpack the quiet but constant pressure of comparing ourselves to others — especially our friends — and how it feeds into the expectations we silently carry.

We also talk about what helped her let go of the need to have it all figured out in her 20s, and how shifting her focus gave her permission to follow a path that actually fits.

What does success actually look like? Not the Instagram highlight reel. Not the six-figure salary or the flashy milestones. But the kind of success that feels like peace — like coming home.

In this raw and vulnerable conversation, I sit down with my friend Ken — a father, husband, and business owner — who opens up about what it really took to build a life he's proud of.

From a self-described “knucklehead” in his 20s to someone who's now steady, grounded, and grateful, Ken shares his journey plus the lessons he’s learned along the way.

We talk about shame, starting small, dealing with failure, the fear of success, and why true success isn’t about having more.

If you’re in the thick of figuring it all out — career, identity, relationships — this one’s for you.

If you’ve ever felt stuck, confused, or like you’re living someone else’s dream… this is for you.
