Ep 4: In the Funk: Stay in Corporate or Start Your Own Business?

September 24, 2025 • Molly Smith • Season 1 • Episode 4

This episode is different—it’s our very first In the Funk coaching session. Instead of reflecting on a funk from the past, we’re working through one in real time.

My guest, Kacy Turner, has spent over 15 years as a Life Care Planner and Vocational Expert, contributing her expertise to more than 1,000 cases as a sought-after expert witness in Texas. But right now, she’s in her own work funk: deciding whether to stay in the safety of corporate life or take the leap into starting her own business.

In this episode, we:

Get clear on Kacy’s current reality
Explore the fear of losing a “safety net” paycheck and benefits
Talk about nervous system safety when making bold moves
Identify what support she’ll need to stay in her lane
Land on a clear Next Best Step forward

If you’ve ever been torn between comfort and calling, this conversation will give you tools and perspective to help you move forward too.
