Episode Details

In this episode, I sit down with keynote speaker and singer-songwriter Rachel Druckenmiller to unpack what it really means to get unmuted - at work, in life, and within yourself. 

Rachel shares the five reasons people silence themselves, from fear and self-doubt to imposter syndrome and perfectionism, and why so many of us are living dimmed-down versions of who we're meant to be. We get into her personal story of burning out as a corporate well-being director, getting hit by a truck mid-run and sustaining a spinal fracture, and how both of those blindside moments became catalysts for her biggest transformations. We also go deep on why struggle is often the doorway to meaning, how to borrow other people's belief in you when you've lost your own, and the one question her father taught her that can shift everything when you're feeling stuck. 

This is one of the most raw and honest conversations I've had on this show, and I think it'll hit home for anyone who's been holding themselves back and wondering when they're finally going to show up fully.

What's one area of your life where you know you've been muting yourself, and what's the fear that's been keeping you quiet?
