Description

What happens when your identity is tied to your performance—and life forces you to stop performing?

In this powerful episode, Elyssa sits down with Rebecca Lomax, a wealth relationship manager, speaker, and former dance artist whose journey from the stage to the financial world will move and inspire you. After a concussion forced her to rethink everything she knew about herself, Rebecca had to rebuild not only her career, but her sense of self-worth.

Together, they explore the intersection of adversity, authenticity, and empowerment—and what it truly means to rise after a fall. Rebecca shares the messy middle of her transformation, from battling imposter syndrome to trusting that she is worthy just as she is. This is a must-listen for any woman learning to show up fully, even when life doesn’t go according to plan.
