What if the job that once made you proud is now the thing slowly draining your soul?

In this powerful episode of Grow With Kepo, Olivia Westley, founder of Redefine Fertility, shares her remarkable transformation from mechanical engineer to functional health practitioner helping women heal their hormones and get pregnant naturally. After a devastating miscarriage and years of misalignment in her 9-5, Olivia found clarity in the chaos and turned pain into purpose. We go deep on motherhood, ego, burnout, support systems, and why your first step never needs to be perfect, it just needs to be bold.

If you're a high achiever feeling stuck or secretly suffocating in a “successful” life, this is your wake-up call.

KEY TAKEAWAYS'

• Mechanical engineering doesn't define your destiny
• Miscarriage became the catalyst for purpose
• First steps are always messy and necessary
• Fitness coaching was a stepping stone, not the endgame
• Functional health was her aligned path all along
• Support systems don’t have to understand you to back you
• Trading ego boosts for inner peace is worth it
• Building something of your own takes sacrifice and self-trust

What if the reason you’re stuck isn’t laziness, but misalignment? In this fiery solo episode, I pull back the curtain on the quiet misery so many high performers live in. From the soul-crushing routine of corporate life to the wake-up call that changed everything, I’m sharing the raw truth about why I had to break free. If you’ve ever felt like you were made for more, this episode will hit deep.

Let me remind you who you really are, and why you can’t keep waiting. It’s time to stop swimming when you were made to fly.

KEY TAKEAWAYS:
• You’re not lazy, you’re misaligned
• Quiet misery is not a life sentence
• Starting and stopping is a form of self-sabotage
• Why your 9 to 5 isn’t “secure”
• The mental and physical toll of misalignment
• The cost of outsourcing your creativity
• Reclaiming time and agency as a high performer
• Every excuse is hiding a deeper fear
• If you're made to fly, stop trying to swim
• Building your dream is urgent AND important

BEST MOMENTS:
00:00:29. “Here is something you need to hear. You're not lazy. You're just misaligned.”
00:01:02. “Today I want to talk about why I started this podcast, why I am now coaching people and helping them to get out of their life of quiet misery.”
00:02:17. “I have had it up to here of trying to swim like a great white when I'm actually an eagle and I want to soar.”
00:04:06. “I don't care if XYZ company loses $10 million or gains $10 million, it does nothing for my soul.”
00:06:33. “If you are in the same boat and doing nothing about getting out, you are crazy.”
00:09:18. “The only thing that is secure is the bet that you make on yourself.”
00:13:01. “You have two good reasons why you need to start. Number one, your job is not secure. Number two, you are made for something greater.”
00:17:11. “How long do you want to take permission for to do life?”
00:21:19. “All these sacrifices that you are making, it is all for nothing if it is not what you are called to do.”
00:32:56. “Because you are an eagle, you will fly. You will not swim.”

In this raw, transformative episode of Grow With Kepo, we take a powerful detour, inviting listener and multi-passionate creative Olaora into a real-time coaching session. She’s a singer, songwriter, marketing strategist, and mom with a dream to build the “Sony of Africa.” But self-doubt, inconsistent action, and fear of failure keep getting in the way.

This is more than a session, it’s a mirror for anyone stuck at the intersection of ambition and alignment. Through deeply personal truths, mindset breakthroughs, and tactical next steps, Olaora peels back the layers of resistance we all carry. You’ll walk away challenged, inspired, and ready to get out of your own way.

Welcome to the Grow With Kepo podcast, where transformation begins with clarity.

• Stop comparing your chapter 1 to someone else’s chapter 42
• Execution unlocks clarity, thinking isn’t enough

• Ideas leave when not executed, take bold action now
• Your next chapter won’t start by itself, you have to choose it
• Reaching out opens doors, don’t reject yourself first
• Intentional use of 10-minute windows builds consistency
• Stop over-indexing on ideal conditions, start where you are
• Your belief has to lead your behavior, not the other way around
