The Brave Move That Changes Everything: Stepping Outside Your Comfort Zone to Unlock Your Purpose

What if the thing you have been searching for is not ahead of you, but already inside you, waiting to be seen?

In this episode of the ChangeMaker Leader Podcast, host Leigh Mitchell sits down with Jill Valentine, founder of Ugo Impact and creator of the Ugo Triple Change Effect Model, for a conversation about purpose, identity, and what it really means to do brave things before you know where they will lead.

About This Episode

Leigh shares her personal story of joining a transformational trip to Costa Rica nearly a decade ago, not fully knowing what she was looking for, and walking away with the discovery that would reshape her entire career. Jill walks us through the three pillars of her framework and explains why transformation is less about changing who you are and more about returning to who you have always been.

What You Will Walk Away With

• A new understanding of why stepping away from the familiar is often the fastest path to clarity
• The three pillars of the Ugo Triple Change Effect Model: Change Yourself, Change Your Community, and Change Your World
• How purpose evolves across the decades of a woman's life and why that shift is something to lean into
• Why ego-driven ambition eventually gives way to something more meaningful, and what to do when it does
• How clarity about your values can reveal misalignments in your work and relationships you did not even know were there

Leigh Also Opens Up About

• Her personal experience on a Ugo transformational trip and what it unlocked in her
• Perimenopause, brain rewiring, and the science behind why midlife can feel like a turning point
• Releasing shame around failure and learning to roll with it
• Rebuilding Women in Biz Network on her own terms and what that taught her about owning her imprint

This Episode Is For You If

• You feel like you have drifted from yourself
• You are successful on paper but quietly wondering if there is more
• You need permission to say yes to yourself for once
