What if burnout was never the problem—but the signal?
In this episode, Jessica Rice sits down with Vicky Daugvilavičiūtė, founder of Just Be Better, to explore how ambition without alignment leads to burnout—and how restoring humanity to the way we work and hire can change everything.
Together, they unpack how leaders can hire with heart, how AI is reshaping trust, and why redefining success starts with rebuilding self-trust.
Whether you’re leading teams, launching something new, or leaving toxic success behind, this conversation will remind you:
Belonging Beats Burnout.
Humanity Empowers Metrics.
🧭 In this episode:
The hidden cost of overachievement and toxic alignment
How AI and automation impact human connection at work
Redefining success in leadership, hiring, and purpose-driven work
Why empathy is a leadership advantage, not a liability
How to build systems that protect your peace and your purpose

We glorify leadership as the ultimate solution to everything—career stagnation, burnout, purpose, even fulfillment. But what if leadership isn’t the cure?
In this raw and reflective episode, Jessica Rice, Legacy Leadership & Brand Coach, shares her story of leaving a toxic corporate culture, walking away from the “golden child” title, and realizing that leadership alone can’t heal what’s broken inside.
She unpacks what happens when your success looks great on paper but feels hollow in your heart—and why alignment, conviction, and calling must come before leadership.
💡 You’ll Learn:
Why “leadership” can become a mask for burnout and misalignment
The hidden cost of corporate golden handcuffs
How conviction and calling redefine success
What fulfillment really looks like beyond the next title or promotion

Faith-driven women entrepreneurs: If you're feeling trapped by the shiny success that looks good on paper but quietly strangles your peace—this episode will give you permission to trust what you already know.
I left a successful corporate career not as an escape, but as an evolution. And I'm sharing the neuroscience, the faith, and the framework that made it possible.
In this episode, you'll learn:
• The "certainty trap": Why your brain keeps you stuck in familiar patterns
• How cortisol (stress hormone) numbs your creativity and dulls decision-making
• The difference between working hard and working disconnected
• How to rewire hustle by activating self-generated dopamine (fulfillment that sustains itself)
• Why freedom isn't a lack of structure—it's choosing the right ones
• How to build from alignment, not adrenaline
This is for you if you're:
✓ A high-achieving woman ready to leave corporate for purpose
✓ Feeling burnt out from chasing productivity for validation
✓ Craving peace, alignment, and meaningful work
✓ Building a faith-driven, legacy-focused business
Golden handcuffs still leave marks. They just shimmer under better lighting. But when you finally set them down, the silence that follows isn't loss—it's freedom arriving.
YOUR MOMENT OF REFLECTION:
What's the badge you're still wearing even though it no longer fits who you're becoming?

Are you showing up in your business as the real you—or just the version you think people expect?

If you're in a pivot, stepping into visibility, or craving a brand that feels more like you... this one is for you.
We’re asking:

Going through a difficult season? You're not alone. In this vulnerable episode, I share my journey of spiritual recalibration and how challenging times can actually draw us closer to our true calling.
WHAT YOU'LL DISCOVER:
✨ Why difficult seasons are actually spiritual recalibration periods
✨ How to distinguish between authenticity and attention-seeking behavior
✨ The biblical foundation for trusting your calling (Romans 8:28-30)
✨ Why it's never too late to align with your deeper purpose
✨ How to embrace imperfection while building your iconic legacy
KEY INSIGHTS:
"Authenticity is lonely. It's not loud, it's not jarring or brazen. That's attention seeking."
"God gave you a calling. It's not about ease, it's about flow. Flow in the ups and the downs."
This isn't about perfection - it's about alignment. If you're questioning your path, feeling judged, or wondering if it's too late to change direction, this episode is for you.
