Ep. 103: How To Find The Courage To Start Over | Brandi Norris

Episode 103: Brandi Norris has lived many lives: accountant, single mom, student, creative, wife, and now Airbnb host and user experience designer. Her personal and professional journeys are proof that reinvention is always possible—and that keeping the right people around you can change everything.


In this heartfelt conversation, Brandi shares how early motherhood shifted her path, how toxic workplaces shaped her courage to stand up for what she believes in, and how rediscovering her creative side transformed her life. She opens up about self-doubt, career pivots, and the lessons she’s passing down to her kids about authenticity, resilience, and finding your tribe.


If you’ve ever felt stuck in the wrong career, pressured to follow a “traditional” path, or afraid that it’s too late to change direction, Brandi’s story will remind you that breakdowns lead to breakthroughs—and that authenticity is always worth the risk.


Tune in now and hear why your people, your passions, and your courage are the most powerful guides on the journey to becoming your true self!
