Why it’s time to break up with success with Christina Galbato

In this episode, I sit down with my dear friend Christina Galbato—entrepreneur, creator, and host of She’s WELLthy—for an honest and deeply personal conversation about growth, spirituality, and the courage it takes to start over. Christina opens up about walking away from her multi-million dollar online education business to rediscover who she truly is beyond her success and public identity. She shares how hitting rock bottom became the beginning of a profound spiritual awakening that transformed every part of her life—her work, friendships, and sense of peace. We talk about the messy middle of transformation, the beauty of letting go, and what it means to build a life that’s rooted in alignment rather than achievement. Christina also shares the practices that helped her rebuild—like meditation, surrender, and faith—and how she’s now leading with purpose, authenticity, and presence. If you’ve ever felt called to burn it all down and begin again, this episode will remind you that peace, power, and possibility are always waiting on the other side. Liked this episode?

Painting the picture of their life to be perfect and surrounding themselves with people that make them look good or earning a certain amount of money, and just hoping that those external things will soak in and make them happy when really it's about making your internal world aligned, calm, present joy within yourself, so that no matter what happens outside of you, you still remain in that state.” - Christina Galbato GUEST RESOURCES: IG: www.instagram.com/christinagalbato website: www.christinagalbato.com RESOURCES: 💡Just Launched: The Growth Collective: Monthly Coaching With Me—for just $1 Your content deserves to convert, not just be seen.
