The Cost of Becoming: The Side of Success No One Sees

In episode six of The HERIS Edit, Brittany and Kristen talk about the cost of becoming — the unseen tradeoffs that come with growth, success, authenticity, entrepreneurship, relationships, and choosing a life that feels more aligned. They unpack the freedom and pressure of entrepreneurship, the security and limitations of corporate life, the loneliness behind building something meaningful, and the relationships, habits, and identities that sometimes have to shift as you become someone new. This episode is a real conversation about making space, knowing your why, choosing your hard, and remembering that growth may cost you something — but it can also give you yourself back.
