The Sledgehammer of the Universe: When Stress Forces the Truth with Carole Murko

The Sledgehammer of the Universe: When Stress Forces the Truth with Carole Murko This season, we’re rewriting the rules. And today’s rule is simple: trust yourself before it costs you. In this episode of Corporate F*ckery: Stories of Survival, Psychological Warfare, and Choosing What’s Best for You*, Lauren sits down with Carole Murko, founder of Love. Eat. Heal. and certified consultant with NeuroChangeSolutions. Carole shares how decades in finance and corporate leadership, combined with suppressed anger, people-pleasing, and chronic stress, culminated in a rare eye disease that threatened her vision. The wake-up call? What she calls the “sledgehammer of the universe.” Together, Lauren and Carole unpack: How corporate conditioning teaches women to override their intuition Why unprocessed emotion doesn’t disappear — it stores The difference between external achievement and self-mastery How to observe the signals your body is giving you before they escalate Why you don’t have to burn your life down to start telling the truth This conversation isn’t about quitting your job. It’s about reclaiming your authority, internally first. Because sometimes stress isn’t random. It’s redirection.
