Update: 2025-08-05
Description
Success on paper doesn't always mean alignment in life. So what happens when you're done pretending everything’s fine?
In this episode, Ashlei Rolloff sits down with Kate Ferrian, a former corporate ops leader who now helps high-performing women reconnect to purpose, rebuild confidence, and redefine success on their terms.
They cover:
- How Kate rebuilt her identity after leaving a toxic relationship—and a successful career
- Why traditional leadership models miss the mark for ambitious women
- Three tools that help reveal your true leadership strengths: Human Design, Enneagram, Myers-Briggs
- The truth about burnout, boundaries, and being “seen” as a woman in leadership
- How five minutes a day can radically shift your self-awareness and impact
For HVAC leaders balancing growth with real life, this episode is a permission slip to stop performing and start aligning.
