Ditch the Struggle with Alana Ruoso
If you’ve ever felt lost and trapped in your career, frustrated with the life you’re living, stuck in a state of struggle and maybe even–like me–haunted by the fear of unfulfilled potential, then you’re definitely in the right place. Been there, done that, bought the T-shirt and then burned it–a few times over.
Hi! I'm Alana. I'm a certified Career & Success Coach and Graphic Designer in Canada. I can’t wait to share stories from my deep dive into personal development work, careers, coaching, energy healing, waking up to toxic societal programming (yes, I’m going there) and the path back to my intuition, the place I desperately needed to be but, of course, resisted.
Ditch the Struggle with Alana Ruoso
EP50: The Courage to Ditch Self-Sabotage [Personal Story & Inspo]
In this episode of Ditch the Struggle we dive into:
- That time in college (Ontario College of Art & Design) that I dug deep to create a "win" for myself--despite wanting to curl up in a ball and hide from the world forever
- Low self-esteem, self-sabotage, panic attacks and migraines
- Navigating my parent's nasty divorce (that took 15 years)
- Getting triggered by my packaging design teacher and feeling like a failure
- The trauma of being a student of a very famous Canadian graphic designer instructor (he designed the CBC logo)
- Not quitting when you really, really want something
- The courage to finally admit to yourself that you DO want to achieve a goal at all costs
