Imagine allowing yourself to stop producing, proving, and hustling long enough to ask who you are without your work or title. In this episode, I’m joined by Goli Kalkhoran, creator of ‘ Lessons from a Quitter’ , to explore what it means to press pause on a successful business and sit with uncertainty to uncover what’s next. She illuminates how: Success and alignment are not the same. Productivity and hustle culture are deeply tied to identity, especially for high-achieving women and lawyers. Growth requires stopping, stillness, and trust. Listen in as Goli offers a compassionate and honest perspective on evolving beyond fixed identities, and trusting what’s next. About Goli Goli Kalkhoran is a Master Certified Life Coach, and former attorney, who helps unfulfilled professionals create a career (and life) they actually like. She is the host of the Lessons from a Quitter podcast where she uses her platform to de-stigmatize quitting and provide resources and inspiration to individuals looking to pivot in their established careers. She challenges people to exceed their own expectations and guides them through the initial steps of starting over in order to build a more intentional, fulfilling life. At the time of recording this podcast, Goli had pressed pause on “Lessons from a Quitter” for an indefinite sabbatical.
