Podcast: EP 17 How to Let Go So You Can Create the Life and Business That Is Truly Destined for You with Ruby Warrington

If you’ve been listening to the show for a bit, you know I feel passionately about burnout at work and learning to play again. I also believe that we each have a unique calling to fulfill in our lives. So when I had the chance to talk to my friend Ruby about both of these topics, it was amazing.

Author of Material Girl, Mystical World (2017), Sober Curious (Jan 2019), and The Numinous Astro Deck (June 2019). Voice behind the term “Now Age.” Founder of The Numinous. With 20 years’ experience as a lifestyle journalist, Ruby is an author, speaker, book doula, curator, brand consultant, copywriter, and thought leader. With her books, her brand work, and her live events and retreats, her mission is to inspire people to see the world through a new lens—inviting them to engage with life on a deeper, more meaningful level.

Ruby shares incredible insights in this conversation about how she has navigated multiple career pivots, learned to rest and play after burnout, and how astrology (one of her zones of genius) can help us plan for the future.

The idea that a brand is for life is very outdated.
