Wherever You Go, There You Are

“Changing jobs or zip codes won’t fix a soul-level misalignment.” In this episode of Business is Human, Rebecca Fleetwood Hession shares a heartfelt and energized reflection on how true transformation doesn’t come from external changes, but from doing the inner work of aligning with your authentic identity. From prayerful moments on her patio to spontaneous blessings and first-class upgrades, Rebecca’s recent experience planning a trip to Italy becomes a metaphor for how peace, joy, and clarity follow when you stop striving and start thriving. Through stories, scripture, and soulful questions, she invites listeners to move beyond burnout, fear, and false metrics of success by getting quiet, tuning into their nervous system, and reconnecting with God-given identity. In this episode, you’ll learn:Why burnout often signals striving, not alignmentWhy the “Sunday scaries” might be more about identity than employmentThe difference between “thriving tired” and “striving tired” Things to listen for: (00:00) Intro (00:43) Excitement and nervous system activation (01:04) Vacation mindset shift (02:58) The Italy trip blessing (04:51) The story of the birthday boots (05:54) The illusion of escape (07:41) Finding your true identity (13:36) The power of prayer (17:34) Leadership and nervous system regulation Connect with Rebecca: https://www.rebeccafleetwoodhession.com/
