What happens when a high-achieving leader stops performing and starts returning to herself?

In this powerful episode of Casa De Confidence, Julie sits down with leadership coach, writer, and former Fortune 100 executive Jan Turner for a deeply human conversation about burnout, reinvention, creativity, and what it truly means to live a fierce life.

After spending nearly three decades leading multi-billion-dollar businesses, Jan experienced multiple life-altering burnout moments that forced her to confront patterns of perfectionism, over-responsibility, and self-abandonment. Instead of pushing through, she chose a braver path: slowing down, reconnecting with creativity, and redefining leadership from the inside out.

Together, Julie and Jan explore:

Why burnout is not a badge of honor for high-achieving women
How creativity and play are essential tools for regulation and healing
The hidden leadership patterns that keep women stuck and exhausted
Why vulnerability is not weakness, but a powerful leadership skill
What it means to live and lead fiercely in midlife and beyond

Jan also shares the story behind her mother’s parting message, “Live a Fierce Life,” and how it continues to shape her work today.

Jan is offering listeners her Fierce Weekly Reset, a simple and powerful guide to reset your energy, priorities, and mindset each week.
