We talk a lot about building the life of our dreams but what happens when chasing success leaves us feeling disconnected, exhausted, or lost?
In this vulnerable and deeply honest conversation, I sit down with Tatiana Slezac, intuitive healing practitioner and author of The Power of Surrender, to explore what it really takes to heal from the inside out while still running a business, showing up for others and creating a life that truly feels as good as it looks.
Tatiana opens up about her personal journey with food addiction, the illusion of control and the courage it takes to ask for help when you’ve always been the strong one.
Together, we dive into the mindset shifts behind real success from letting go of perfection to embracing surrender as a superpower.
If you’ve ever pushed yourself to the limit in search of success, this episode will remind you that healing isn’t the opposite of ambition, it’s what makes it sustainable.
✨ In this episode, you’ll learn:
How surrender can lead to clarity, peace and real success
