Summary
She spent years building a record-breaking, multi-million dollar business while the man she trusted most was quietly poisoning her. The world saw the awards, the income, the beautiful home. What it didn't see was 80 pounds of unprocessed grief, a staph infection eating away her legs, and a truth she wasn't allowed to say out loud. What she rebuilt after that truth finally broke open will change how you think about faith, ego, and what you're actually carrying for other people. Dana Grant is the bestselling author of Truth Within the Lie and co-founder of Cauliflower Foods, where she set unbreakable sales records and built a multi-million dollar business — all while privately battling addiction, medical betrayal, and a marriage built on a hidden truth. After her world collapsed in public, she did the deepest healing work of her life, rebuilt her relationship with her daughters, and now teaches leaders how to operate from soul instead of ego. This conversation is about what happens when the life you built on the outside stops matching what's true on the inside, and what it actually takes to let the mask down. In this episode: Why so many faith-led leaders perform integrity instead of living it, and how to spot it in yourself The difference between being married to the process and married to the outcome How imposter syndrome can build a record-breaking business and still leave you feeling like a fraud Why self-sabotage is often anger at yourself wearing someone else's name The real difference between ego and soul, and why most leaders confuse the two Why you don't need anyone else's blueprint, only your own How to rebuild trust with the people you love after years of hiding the truth Connect with Dana Grant: Website: https://danagrant.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram…
