You Know There’s More for You — But You ...

ERIKA DE PELLEGRIN
About this episode

You can feel it — there’s more for you. More alignment. More purpose. More clarity. But no matter how hard you try… you feel stuck.


In this powerful episode with Rochelle Fox, we unpack what’s really going on when you’re ready for more but can’t seem to move forward.


This isn’t about pushing harder — it’s about finally understanding what’s been blocking you… and unlocking what comes next.


We explore:

🔓 How to move from stuck to self-led


🧭 The mindset shifts that create clarity and momentum


🧠 What your resistance and discomfort are actually trying to show you

✨ How to learn & grow from your triggers

💬 How to reconnect with your inner voice when you feel out of touch


🔥 Why this might be your turning point


If you’ve been craving more but can’t figure out how to get it… this is the unlock you’ve been waiting for.
