I Had The Title, The Paycheck… But No Purpose With Eric Sardina

 Disruptor Nation, this one's for anyone who's ever felt trapped in success. I had the pleasure of talking with Eric Sardina, former C-suite exec, global consultant, marathon runner, and now purpose-driven coach about what it really means to win in life. After three decades in high-powered corporate roles at firms like Deloitte and EY, Eric made a radical pivot. He left the suit-and-tie world behind to live a life of alignment and to help others do the same through his platform Return to Authenticity. In this episode, we unpack: What climbing the corporate ladder really cost him and why he eventually walked away Why today's work culture is broken, and how loyalty and job security are now myths The power of goal-setting and how it changed his identity, purpose, and relationships How fear of failure held him back for years and the mindset shift that finally set him free The life lessons he learned while running marathons and how they apply to business, marriage, and purpose His powerful journey in Italy, and how travel cracked open clarity in unexpected ways How he and his wife maintain a thriving partnership by regularly reflecting on their purpose and alignment This isn't another corporate burnout story. It's a blueprint for intentional living one small win at a time.
