What does it take to create a life that feels as good on the inside as it looks on the outside?
In this episode, Erin welcomes business strategist and mother of three, Kelsea Koenreich for a deeply honest conversation about healing, survival patterns, and the courage it takes to begin again. Kelsea recounts her upbringing in chaos, her years in addiction, and the pivotal moment in a jail cell that forced her to choose a different life.
Kelsea explains why so many high-achieving women hit emotional burnout, how to build a business that fuels rather than drains you, and why personal responsibility and emotional intelligence are the real keys to sustainable success.
