In this episode, hosts Lala and Brian are joined by their brilliant friend and business partner, April Wu, founder of InSphere Consulting. April shares her transformative journey from navigating strict cultural expectations and career burnout to finding her voice and launching her own company. She opens up about the immense pressure of a score-based definition of success she experienced growing up in China and how that mindset followed her to the United States.

April reveals how a near-breaking point in a high-pressure corporate job became the catalyst for her to redefine success on her own terms. This raw and honest conversation explores the importance of self-trust, honoring your ambition, and making your own path. It’s a powerful story of survival, hope, and discovering that the most important blueprint is the one you create for yourself.
