Soul Expression: The Path Back to You
In this episode of Wild Enthusiasm for Living, I sit down with bestselling author, speaker, and executive coach James Robbins for a raw, heartfelt conversation about waking up, burning out, and finally listening to the voice inside you that’s been asking for more.
We talk about the difference between the life that looks good and the one that feels true, the soul's quiet nudges (and loud wake-up calls), and the radical power of choosing your own path, even if it means letting go of success as the world defines it.
If you’ve ever felt stuck, numb, or like you’re checking boxes in a life you don’t fully recognize… this episode will hit home. James shares his own breakdown-to-breakthrough story, the moment his body said “no more,” and how nature, reflection, and soul-listening brought him back to life.
This isn’t about hustle. It’s about coming home to yourself.
The invitation? Slow down. Get quiet. Get honest. And ask: am I living my life, or someone else’s?
