In this first part of an expansive and soul-nourishing conversation, I sit down with Kristin Vierra—a Lifestyle Design and Career Fulfillment Coach—to unpack the winding path of building a fulfilling life and career. Kristin shares her powerful journey from public accounting and burnout to becoming a coach who empowers others to live with clarity, courage, and curiosity.
We explore what it really means to live authentically—from shedding roles that no longer serve us to embracing a more fluid, evolving approach to lifestyle and career design. Together, we challenge the perfection myth, the social media comparison trap, and the idea that fulfillment comes from one final destination. Instead, Kristin offers a refreshing lens: fulfillment is found in the journey, in honoring your unique timeline, and in celebrating every step—big or small.
Key Takeaways:
- Your career isn’t a fixed destination—it’s an evolving design
- Comparison is inevitable—but it can be reframed as inspiration
- Fulfillment isn’t found by doing more—it’s found by doing what matters
- Letting go isn’t failing—it’s freeing
Whether you’re navigating a career shift, feeling misaligned in your current path, or simply craving more intentionality in your day-to-day, this episode is packed with wisdom, honesty, and hope.
