What does “home” mean when the things that used to define it change?

Leslie Mizerak sits down with Susan Sjolund, founder of Fully Present Coaching, for a warm and deeply human conversation about burnout, resilience, and the idea of home as an inner experience. Susan shares how her work in consumer marketing led to a level of burnout that became a turning point, and how reconnecting to values and purpose helped her rebuild her life and career.

Throughout the episode, Susan describes a guiding principle that connects her parenting and her coaching: kindness. She invites clients to move through what is holding them back, especially at moments when they feel stuck, at a crossroads, or unsure of what comes next. Together, Leslie and Susan explore how “home” can shift from something external to something internal, and how coaching can help people develop the honesty and self-trust needed to create meaningful change.

This episode includes a powerful story of a client learning to live more authentically and reframe perceived judgment as fear, creating space for healing and connection. If you are navigating transition, reinvention, or simply asking yourself where you belong, this conversation offers both comfort and a clear next step: start with honesty, and do not do it alone.
