From Corporate Ladder To True Fulfillment: Redefining Success And Starting Over | With Karm Fung

from Think Unbroken with Michael Unbroken | Childhood Trauma, CPTSD, and Mental Health Recovery · host Michael Anthony

In this episode, Michael Unbroken sits down with coach and former accountant Karms Fung, who spent 15 years climbing the corporate ladder, chasing titles, respect, and external validation before realizing that “success without fulfillment is the ultimate failure,” a lesson she took to heart after a Tony Robbins event. You will hear how she went from feeling second best in her family, overworking to prove her worth, moving to Australia, excelling at math and accounting, and then finally admitting, “I don’t want to do this until I’m 65.”Karms shares the honest truth about:Growing up feeling unwanted as a girl in a traditional Asian culture and deciding to outwork everyone.Building a 15–year corporate accounting career for status, security, and approval, only to end up burned out and empty.Hitting a breaking point, drifting, binging Netflix, and realizing that going back to a “safe” job might be worse than feeling lost.Her rule for only applying to jobs she would do even without getting paid, and how that led to a stepping stone role that unlocked her passion.Discovering her love for teaching growth mindset, leading teams, and ultimately leaving corporate to start a coaching business and build real community.If you feel stuck in a job you hate, scared to walk away from the salary, title, and identity you have built, this video will give you the mindset shifts, questions, and real stories you need to start moving toward a life that actually feels meaningful.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
