Description

Maya Watson was living the dream—on paper. High-profile roles at Netflix and OWN. A résumé full of wins. But inside? She was exhausted. Burnt out. Out of alignment. So she stepped away.


In this episode, Maya shares what it really took to recover from burnout and rebuild a career rooted in purpose, peace, and personal truth. From major pivots to quiet reflection, this conversation is a powerful reminder that sometimes the most courageous thing you can do is pause.


We talk about:

– Why burnout isn’t just exhaustion—it’s misalignment

– The shift from performance to purpose

– How Maya went from Netflix exec to intention-led coach

– The power of rest, reflection, and letting go

– And how to reconnect with who you’re becoming—not just what you’ve done


Whether you’re in a transition, feeling stuck, or just tired of grinding through—it’s okay to want more and want peace.
