This week’s “How She Finds Purpose” insight comes from me. I say – “Success is not the same as fulfillment. And I realized I was not broken. I was misaligned. I was out of alignment with who I really was.” In this solo episode, I open up about a season of my life when everything on the outside looked right—leadership role, title, prestige—but inside, I felt completely out of sync. I share the moment I started asking, “Why do I feel empty?” and how that question led me to the concept of misalignment. If you’ve ever had a quiet sense that something’s off—even when you’re technically successful—this conversation is for you. I’m Dr. Robin, a college professor, author, and purpose coach—and in this podcast, I guide high-achieving women who are looking to align their work with who they truly are. Here are 3 reasons why you should listen to this episode: You’ll learn how to recognize the quiet signs of misalignment—even when your career looks great on paper. You’ll get a simple framework to identify if your “what,” “who,” or “why” is out of sync with your true self. You’ll leave with 4 reflective questions to help you reconnect with your passions, values, and purpose—plus a small, doable homework assignment to get started.
