In this episode, Rachel Burr shares her journey from nearly becoming a clinical psychologist to discovering her passion as an executive and team coach. You'll hear Rachel open up about the struggles of realizing she was on the wrong career path, how she made the difficult decision to leave her PhD program, and what happened when her personal life was turned upside down. She discusses the powerful lessons she learned about self-awareness, navigating uncertainty, and dealing with fear—key experiences every entrepreneur, small business owner, and founder can relate to.

Rachel breaks down the realities of building a coaching practice from scratch, moving through the messy middle of starting over, and finding true alignment between your talents and your work. She reveals how her setbacks became the foundation for her successful business, and why listening, adaptability, and genuine connection matter more than ever in entrepreneurship. Rachel also talks about her book, “Butterfly Goo,” which is packed with practical exercises for business owners going through big transitions.

If you’re searching for real-world strategies from successful entrepreneurs, stories of resilience, and actionable insights to apply to your own business, this episode will inspire and guide your next steps.
