  • STP 122 | How to Navigate Change By being True to Yourself with Steve Bisson
    Jun 30 2025

    In this episode, I sit down with my good friend and fellow podcaster, Steve Bisson, to talk about something that hits close to home—navigating change and knowing when it’s time to rebrand. Steve gets real about the moment he realized his podcast, Finding Your Way Through Therapy, was no longer aligned with what energized him. We talk about what it takes to pivot after four years of hard work, why niching down actually gave him more freedom, and how he built a new brand—Resilience Development in Action—that speaks directly to his heart and his audience.

    If you’re a therapist, coach, or creative who’s feeling stuck or burned out by what you’ve built, this conversation will give you permission and practical insights to move forward. You’ll hear how Steve used feedback, life experience, and even a little help from AI to guide his transition. It’s honest, encouraging, and filled with tips for anyone rethinking what’s next.
