From Burnout to Courage with Owen Reader

From Burnout to Courage

Rebuilding after losing everything

 What happens when the drive that built your career is the same force that nearly breaks your life?

 In this episode, I sit down with Owen Reader, founder of Indelible, to talk about burnout, bankruptcy, identity collapse, and what it really takes to rebuild when everything falls apart.

 Owen shares how chasing impact and legacy led to exhaustion and disruption — and how hitting bottom forced a complete reset. We explore the uncomfortable truth about fear, why most of what we’re afraid of never materializes, and how courage isn’t a personality trait — it’s a practice.

 In this conversation, we unpack:

  •  What burnout actually reveals about your priorities

  • How to rebuild after financial and relational collapse

  • Why fear can become a compass, not a stop sign

  • The discipline of taking one step forward when hope feels thin

  • How to live “all in” instead of circling the life you want

If you’re a leader at a crossroads, quietly questioning your direction, or rebuilding after a setback, this episode will resonate.

You’re not alone in the collapse.

And you’re not stuck there either.
