Описание: Send us a text (https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/tex...)


What happens when you finally “get there”… and it feels like nothing?


In this episode of Hopeful and Wholesome, Hope is joined by fulfillment mentor, coach, and strategist Annie Adragna, host of The Luminous Life Podcast (top 10%). We’re talking about the moment so many ambitious women secretly experience: the outer success is real,  the business, the responsibilities, the image, the achievements, but the inner fulfillment is missing.


They unpack why high-achieving Type-A women disconnect from joy, presence, and self-trust, and what it actually looks like to come back into alignment without burning your whole life down overnight. Annie shares her story of pushing through, people-pleasing, adrenal burnout, anxiety, and the body’s wake-up calls,  and the spiritual “nudges” that started chasing her down until she listened.


This conversation is your permission slip to stop “should-ing” all over yourself, trust your inner wisdom again, and create a version of success that feels as good as it looks.


What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

• The real reason success can feel empty (even when you’re doing “everything right”)
• How hustle culture trains women to disconnect from intuition, joy, and inner guidance
• The hidden signs you’re overextended and out of alignment (body symptoms + emotional patterns)
• Why unworthiness can show up after you achieve the thing you wanted
• How comparison and “shoulds” hijack your nervous system and decision-making
• What it means to become the observer instead of living on autopilot
• Annie’s True Alignment Pathway (a practical framework to move from restless → clear → confident)
• Why aligned action matters (and how to take it without forcing a timeline)
• How to use seasons (and your authority, if you’re in Human Design) to reassess what still fits
• Why “convenience” isn’t love — and what happens when you stop being the convenient version of you
• The shift from holding tightly → living in flow (and why flow expands your capacity)
