Welcome back to Unstuck Career! This week, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Dr. Lori McDowell—bestselling author, transformative coach, and someone who truly knows how to challenge the status quo around “success.” If you’ve ever found yourself ticking all the boxes on paper but still feeling like something’s missing, you’re going to want to hear this conversation.

Lori opens up about why so many of us—especially women—get caught chasing a version of success that isn’t really our own, and how those invisible “rules” we follow can quietly drain meaning and fulfillment from our lives. We dive deep into what it takes to break out of those outdated patterns, how to reconnect with what you actually want, and why your own definition of success might surprise you.

From real talk about leaving a career after 30 years to the hidden resistance that comes from others (and ourselves!), Lori shares not just her story, but practical insights you can start using right away.

Curious about what it would feel like to wake up excited for your day, instead of just checking off boxes? Wondering if it’s really possible to write your own rules for success—and actually believe you deserve it? Dive into this episode. Your extraordinary life might be closer than you think.
