REDEFINING SUCCESS: How to Create a Life That Feels Good, Not Just Looks Good
In this episode of the For Better Days Podcast, we dive deep into the evolving definition of success and what it truly means to thrive in your 20s and 30s. The traditional blueprint for success—graduate, get a stable job, buy a home, and settle down—is no longer the one-size-fits-all formula it once was. We’re in a new era, where success looks different for each of us, shaped by our personal values, goals, and passions.I’ll be sharing my personal journey of leaving the corporate world behind, despite hitting all the conventional milestones, and realizing that what society defines as "successful" didn’t align with how I wanted to live. From the comfort trap of predictable stability to the freedom of creating a life based on purpose and fulfillment, we’ll explore how success isn’t about a title, a salary, or following a traditional path—it’s about living life on your own terms.We’ll discuss how our generation is redefining success, prioritizing flexibility, creativity, and mental well-being over rigid career paths and societal expectations. I’ll also share personal stories from my circle of friends and examples of people who’ve traded traditional definitions of success for lives that bring them true joy and meaning.Whether your version of thriving means climbing the corporate ladder, starting a passion project, or traveling the world, this episode is all about embracing your unique path and learning how to define success for yourself. Let’s explore how you can thrive by aligning your life with your personal values, building a vision that resonates with who you truly are.Tune in to learn how you can redefine success and start thriving on your own terms!SIGN UP FOR THE FOR BETTER DAYS NEWSLETTER!Superhuman Mediation App - use code KEARA at checkout to get 1-month free (on top of the 2-week free trial - thats 6 free weeks)!!Shop my Amazon:  Amazon StorefrontJoin the For Better Days Groupchat!!Get your copy now: Nourished from Sunrise to Sunset Recipe E-book 💕Be sure to share your weekly intentions and you all listening selfies/stories on Instagram and don't forget to tag @forbetterdayspod!I love you all, remember to smile today 🤍↓ STAY CONNECTED↓♡ Personal Instagram♡ For Better Days Instagram♡ YouTube Channel♡ TikTok♡ Pinterest
