When the Life You’re Supposed to Want Isn’t Yours with Baiba Wisse | Episode 63

What happens when the life you worked hard to build pulls you further away from yourself?After 15 years in the corporate world, Baiba Wisse reached a point where continuing on the same path no longer felt possible. Burnout and pain became an invitation to question the life she was living and search for something more aligned with who she had become.Baiba shares how somatic movement and inner work helped her reconnect with her body, intuition, and sense of purpose. We discuss why pain can reveal what is no longer working, how childhood experiences continue to shape our adult lives, and what it means to give ourselves what we did not receive when we were young.We also explore how Baiba understands masculine and feminine energies, the difference between living according to outside expectations and listening to your inner wisdom, and why reconnecting with yourself may require loosening the world’s grip on who you believe you should be.Pain is not automatically meaningful, and it does not always arrive with a clear lesson. But when the life we have built is no longer sustainable, it can become a doorway into an honest examination of what must change.ABOUT BAIBA WISSEBaiba Wisse is a somatic practitioner and host of the Life in Technicolor podcast.
