Drawing from his own turning point in his late 30s, and a powerful conversation with a long-term client. Ian unpacks why so many high performers drift into dissatisfaction, even when life looks “fine” from the outside. He explores the frustration of directionless work, the emotional hangover that comes from repeating the same cycles, and the moment of self-awareness that sparks real change. Ian breaks down why reinvention doesn’t need to be dramatic or reckless. Instead, he shares the practical path he used to rebuild purpose in his own life: clarity, gradual change, and reconnecting with the parts of your work that actually light you up. He explains how identity, natural strengths, and the “value you can’t see in yourself” all play a massive role in finding direction. Through personal stories and coaching insights, Ian offers a grounded roadmap for anyone ready to step out of autopilot and into a life that feels meaningful again. If you’ve ever felt stuck, restless, or uncertain about the road ahead, this episode shows you how to break the loop, rediscover your strengths, and start shaping a future that actually excites you.
