Episode 229: What's Working Mid-2025, Part 4 – Mindset (Part 1)

"My Dad Died and It Sucked, But It's Also Been the Most Beautiful Thing That's Happened in My Life"


Episode Description

In this deeply personal episode, Molly Pittman reflects on the sudden loss of her father, and the powerful lessons it's taught her about life, business, and what truly matters. If you're navigating grief, burnout, or just feeling disconnected from your purpose, this raw and reflective solo episode will meet you where you are.

"Our only sole purpose here on Earth is to be ourselves and to give and receive love." – Molly Pittman

From presence to portals, Molly shares six transformative insights that have shifted how she leads, lives, and loves.


You Will Learn:

  • Why presence is the most powerful leadership tool

  • How grief rewires your understanding of time and energy

  • Why emotional and physical wellbeing must come first

  • A new lens on purpose (and why you can stop searching for it)

  • How to resolve regret before it owns you

  • Why travel isn't indulgent, it's medicine for your creativity
