Have you ever found yourself feeling unfulfilled at work and wondered if it’s really possible to find both purpose and confidence in your career? If so, you’re not alone, and today’s episode of Speaking with Confidence may have the answers you’ve been searching for.

On this episode, I welcome Danielle Droitsch, an executive and leadership coach who helps high-achieving professionals rediscover their superpowers, reclaim well-being, and approach their work with confidence and purpose. Danielle’s story is one so many of us can relate to: after building a successful career as a senior leader at a nonprofit, she experienced burnout that changed her perspective on career satisfaction and life itself. Now, she helps others create the fulfilling work experiences they deserve.

Here’s what we covered in today’s episode:

  • Danielle’s personal journey from burnout to a fulfilling second career
  • The emotional signals (like boredom and irritability) that indicate something deeper is off in your work life
  • How to separate your job from your identity and why that matters
  • The importance of asking “Who am I?” and how to start finding your unique superpower
  • Insights from new research on human flourishing and why young people are struggling
  • The role of real, in-person connection for well-being
  • Practical steps for unplugging, reconnecting with yourself, and finding what truly energizes you
  • Why soft skills (communication, problem-solving, impact) drive both advancement and confidence
  • Common pitfalls for young professionals and students and how to avoid them
  • The link between self-awareness, confidence, and showing up authentically in every aspect of life

Whether you’re in the middle of a career transition, supporting young people, or simply looking to feel more confident at work, this episode offers relatable stories, actionable insights, and the encouragement to step back, reassess, and reconnect with yourself and others.
