Real Talk Real Women Breaking The Silence Around Abuse

Stepping away from a twenty-year-long career in corporate America to a life of adventure and personal fulfillment isn't a story you hear every day. Yet, this is the bold path Sara from Emboldened Adventures has taken, bravely sharing her journey with us. She recounts the tipping point that compelled her to put her well-being above all else, an inspiring decision sparked by a disheartening interaction that many of us have faced in our own careers. Through this narrative, we witness the incredible transformation of a seasoned professional into a passionate explorer and storyteller, redefining what it means to live a life that truly resonates with one's heart.

Sara's tale recounts her own revelation during a serene vacation, where the hush of nature spoke louder than the hustle of Wall Street, urging a profound shift in her career trajectory amidst the pandemic's uncertainty. We both reflect on the powerful lessons learned from nature's embrace and shamanic healing — how they can ignite courage and lead to significant life changes. It's a discussion that traverses the globe, from Moroccan sands to Amazonian jungles, culminating in the bold decisions that follow when one recognizes the chains of the "golden handcuffs" and the courage required to break free.

In this heart-to-heart conversation, we also explore the pivotal role of community and connections. Sara highlights how venturing out of her comfort zone and into new circles has been instrumental in her growth as a public speaker and advocate for personal transformation. Her gratitude towards the supportive tribe she's discovered serves as a powerful reminder of the endless possibilities that await when we open ourselves to new experiences and perspectives. Sara's journey is a universal call to action for anyone seeking to embark on a path of self-discovery and fulfillment.
