Stop Forcing It: Redefining Success on Your Terms

from V.I.B.E. Living Podcast · host Lynnis Woods-Mullins

Sometimes the deadlines we set for ourselves don’t feel motivating… they feel heavy.In this episode, I’m sitting down with Sunaina Mehta, founder of Design Your Next, and we’re having a real conversation about what success actually looks like when your life—and your energy—starts to shift.We talk about that space so many women find themselves in… where you know something needs to change, but you’re not quite sure what the next step is. And here’s the truth we get into: clarity by itself won’t move your life forward. It’s the small, consistent actions that start to rebuild your confidence.We also dive into what’s really going on when you feel stuck, out of alignment, or second-guessing yourself. And one of my favorite parts of this conversation? Rethinking imposter syndrome—not as something wrong with you, but possibly as your intuition trying to get your attention.If you’ve been feeling stretched, tired, or quietly craving something more… this episode will meet you right where you are.Take a listen, share it with someone who needs it, and if it resonates, make sure you’re subscribed so you don’t miss what’s next.BioSunaina Mehta is the founder of Design Your Next, a strategic direction practice for enterprising women clarifying who they are becoming and structuring what comes next. Born in America and uprooted to India at twelve, she rebuilt her footing more than once — across two cultures, two continents, and a life lived on her own terms. With 25 years of global leadership across brand strategy, innovation, and human insight — including as VP Global Head of Insights at HP — she left a powerhouse career at 50 to build something she wished had existed earlier. Today she helps women move from restlessness to purposeful direction — from wondering to creating.Choosing yourself, she believes, is the most graceful act of rebellion.Website https://www.designyournext.studio/Social MediaLinked In FacebookInstagramPlease Patronize Our Sponsors  Healthy aging starts from the inside out.
