How to Make More Money, Find Your Purpose, and Beat Burnout TODAY

Are you stuck in the hustle cycle and calling it ambition? In this powerful conversation, Lucie is joined by Amina AlTai, an executive coach, speaker, and author, to reframe everything you think you know about success, burnout, and self-worth. They dive into the roots of hustle culture, how childhood core wounds shape our work lives, and why marginalized communities face a different kind of pressure when it comes to “doing it all.” This episode covers: - The real difference between painful and purposeful ambition - How imposter syndrome is a systemic issue, not a personal one - Why your paycheck doesn’t define your purpose - The “zone of genius” framework—and how to work in yours - Amina’s Nourishment Meter: a tool for rebalancing work and life - How to make more money without losing your mind (or your health) Whether you're rethinking your career, struggling with burnout, or trying to find a deeper sense of alignment, this episode offers a compassionate, actionable roadmap to redefine ambition on your own terms. The Ambition Trap is available now wherever books are sold.
