What if the key to lasting wellness wasn’t about overhauling your entire life, but returning to simple truths? In this episode, Allie is joined by Rachel Johnson—lawyer, founder of J&O Law and Ah.mi Health, and mom of three—for an honest conversation about ambition, burnout, wellness, and building a life that feels as good as it looks.
Rachel shares how she transitioned from Big Law to entrepreneurship, how a group text about postpartum health blossomed into a community of 2,000+ women, and what she’s learned about honoring your true self even in high-pressure careers. Together, they explore postpartum depression, the joy of doing things just for you, and how to stop chasing someone else’s version of success.
Key Themes:
* Entrepreneurship and life after Big Law
* From burnout to sustainable wellness
* Postpartum depression and recovery
* Letting go of narrow identities and embracing multiplicity
* Starting small and building community without overwhelm
Mantras and Tools:
* Greens. Water. Move. Repeat. (And sleep!)
* Start with the basics, not biohacks
* It’s okay to do something just because you love it
Resources Mentioned:
* Sam Harris’s Waking Up app
* ah.mi health on Substack
* Instagram: @ahmi.health
