Kim Costa built a life that looked exactly right — and then had to admit it wasn't hers. In this episode, she shares how a quiet internal discomfort, ignored for years, became the signal that changed everything.

Kim is the creator of the Wheelhouse Method, an author, speaker, and top-performing realtor serving North America. Her framework treats your life like a house: four foundational pillars, eight areas of alignment, and the honest question of whether the space you're living in — literally and figuratively — still fits who you are.

We talk about twenty-seven years in a career she was competent at but never built for. A broken back that forced her still long enough to start writing again. A decision to walk away from an Oprah opportunity because she couldn't stand in front of an audience and claim a life she hadn't actually chosen. And the fifteen years of real, unglamorous, one-step-at-a-time movement it took to get to the other side.

What surprised her most after the pivot wasn't income or recognition. It was joy. Not the performed kind — the accessed kind. The feeling of doing work that draws on what you actually are.

If there's a flat tire you've been driving on, this conversation is worth your time.
