Why "Perfect" Lives Feel So Empty (And How to Actually Be Happy) with Jane Garnett

What if the life you've worked so hard to build isn't actually the life that's making you happy? In this episode, I sit down with therapist and former Hollywood producer Jane Garnett to explore the journey from external success to authentic fulfillment. Jane shares how she walked away from Hollywood to become a therapist and why so many of us spend our lives performing instead of truly living. We dive into attachment styles, childhood wounds, confidence, self-worth, healing fantasies, and the hidden patterns that keep us stuck in unhealthy relationships. If you've ever felt like you're doing everything "right" but still don't feel fulfilled, this conversation is for you.
