Stop Wasting Years on the Wrong Person: 3 Signs You're Settling | Julie Piatt (Fan Fav)

This is a Fan Favorite episode. What up, homies! It's your girl Lisa Bilyeu, and welcome back to another fire episode of Women of Impact! Today I am beyond pumped to bring you a conversation with someone I have been dying to sit down with—spiritual mentor, artist, entrepreneur, the incredible founder of Shrimu, AND the phenomenal partner to Rich Roll, the one and only Julie Piatt! Girl, if you've ever wondered how to find your soul’s purpose in love, business, and life, or if you’ve struggled to balance being a freaking badass independent woman while in a relationship with another powerhouse, this episode is for you! Julie and I get REAL on what it means to grow through relationships (even the hard, failed ones!), how to truly own your path, and the deep spiritual work that actually creates transformation—not just in your marriage, but inside of YOU. Julie doesn’t hold back, sharing her journey through three marriages, including one that was abusive, and exactly how she turned those painful chapters into the raw fuel for her mastery and spiritual growth. We talk self-love, boundaries, deep partnership, how to communicate when things are messy, AND how the feminine can finally step INTO her sacred, powerful role. Plus, we geek out on how to build a mission-driven company like Shrimu without losing yourself. You do not want to miss these wisdom bombs. So get comfy, grab your journal (and maybe some vegan cheese, just sayin’!), and get ready for some truth that will absolutely shake up your perspective!
