This week, we’re joined by Sarah Bonello, a remarkable guest who took the leap from a well-trodden corporate path to adventure and fulfillment on a Hawaiian farm. Ever wondered what it’s like to walk away from the “safe” route of a consulting career, sell your car, and drop the cubicle life for organic macadamia nuts on the Big Island? Sarah shares her refreshingly honest journey, including the unexpected twists that led her to Hawaii, the moment she faced her own fears head-on, and the powerful conversations that transformed her perspective on risk and bravery.
You’ll hear what happens when the loudest resistance comes from your own inner voice, how digitizing childhood videos brought Sarah back to her authentic self, and why the “gap” between where you are now and where you want to be is the creative playground every career transitioner faces. We unpack the lessons Sarah had to unlearn—like waiting for clarity, letting fear of failure dictate decisions, and redefining what it means to succeed—and explore how embracing action and imperfection can create a fulfilling new chapter.
If you’re feeling stuck or dreaming of something different, this episode is your nudge to go for it, even if your path feels uncertain.
