Designing a Life That Feels Worth Living

Moving Beyond Autopilot with Dr. Wendy O’Connor (EPI. #257)

There’s something we don’t talk about enough.

You can be successful.
Disciplined.
Highly capable.

And still feel quietly unfulfilled.

Not because something is wrong with you —
but because you may be living inside a definition of success you never consciously chose.

In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Wendy O’Connor — Stanford-trained positive psychologist and success coach for female entrepreneurs — to explore what positive psychology calls languishing:

That in-between space where life works… but doesn’t feel meaningful.

This conversation is especially for high-achieving women who’ve done everything “right,” yet sense there’s something more aligned waiting beneath the surface.

✨ Inside This Episode

Why languishing isn’t failure — it’s a signal
Why awareness is the first step toward intentional living
How inherited scripts keep us productive but disconnected

A question to sit with as you listen:
Where in my life am I following a script that no longer reflects who I am becoming?

✨ Deeper Support Spotlight

🌿 Meet Nourishment Warrior - Amy

If February’s conversations around alignment, nervous system awareness, and conscious choice are resonating with you — this may be a nourishing next step.

If you've ever felt exhausted by the pressure to fix yourself — this one's for you.

Amy Beauchemin Toscano, RDN, founder of Lioness Wellness, offers an intimate wellness experience designed for women navigating stress, transition, or burnout. Through personalized 1:1 nutrition and wellness sessions — with the option for gentle group support — Amy creates a space rooted in deep, attuned listening. There are no rigid rules here, no one-size-fits-all plans. Just a quiet invitation to slow down and reconnect with what your body already knows.

Her approach is simple: restore trust in yourself, and respond with compassion rather than control.

What makes Amy's approach different

Amy's work is guided by her 7 Pillars of Protection — nourishment, movement, rest, and daily rhythms — creating a framework that feels less like a program and more like a gentle return to yourself.

🌿 Guided by intuition and the body's wisdom 🛡️ Grounded in her 7 Pillars of Protection ✨ Designed to help you notice what your body is asking for — and meet it without pressure

This is support that honors presence over performance — and alignment over control.

This spring, instead of pushing for change, you’re invited to support it from the inside out.

Amy’s upcoming cohort opens soon, and space is intentionally limited.

🧭 Early Access: Founder’s Compass App

This is an app I wish had existed when I was navigating my own pivots. What I needed wasn’t another tool to optimize my output.

I needed a way to remember my why — consistently — as life evolved.

So I built the app I wish I’d had.

As I moved through 20+ years in technology, user experience, marketing, and social media, and later deepened into mindfulness and AI, I kept noticing the same quiet pattern — in myself and in other founders:

  • 🔁 FOUNDATION — Remembering what already exists
    Realizing I did have a foundation — values, experiences, motivations — but often dismissed it as “the past” instead of treating it as something I could return to, reflect on, and build from with intention.
  • 🧭 TRANSITION — Having a place to think, feel, and listen
    During pivots, I didn’t need more advice — I needed a mirror.
    A space to reflect with guided prompts that helped me explore my why not just mentally, but through headspace, heart space, and the signals from my body — the somatic wisdom we often ignore when decisions feel urgent.
  • 🌫️ VISION — Holding alignment beyond goals and vision boards
    Recognizing that true vision isn’t just future-thinking — it’s holistic coherence.
    Staying aligned across mind, heart, and body, grounded in neuroscience and spirituality, so the direction I was moving in actually felt true — not just impressive.

What I needed wasn’t another productivity tool.
I needed a way to return to my why — repeatedly — as I evolved.

Founder’s Why Compass™ is a guided reflection app designed for founders (and becoming-founders) who want to:

  • Reconnect with the deeper why behind what they’re building
  • Make decisions from presence — not pressure
  • Stay anchored when identity, direction, or confidence feels uncertain

Guided prompts
🧭 Designed for real-life pivots
🧠 Not just coaching — where mindfulness meets neuroscience, metaphysics, and spirituality, grounded in real-world business insight

🌱 Founding Fee (limited time) — one-year access at an early supporter rate as the app continues to evolve.
