In this episode, I sit down with Owen Reader, founder of Indelible, to talk about burnout, bankruptcy, identity collapse, and what it really takes to rebuild when everything falls apart. Owen shares how chasing impact and legacy led to exhaustion and disruption — and how hitting bottom forced a complete reset.
