About this episode
What happens when the way we chase success starts to pull us away from ourselves? In this episode of the Get Styled podcast, Elsa sits down with dear friend and client, Amina AlTai to talk about just that! Together, they discuss the health scare that led Amina to rethink how she approaches goals, the idea of “letting someone down” that is so pervasive in society (especially as immigrants), and Amina shares how working with Elsa supports her stepping into the boldest version of herself (so far).Whether you’ve been feeling the pull to redefine success or you’re ready to step into a style that matches who you are becoming, this episode may just be the encouragement you need!Amina AITai (pronounced AH-MIN-UH) is an executive coach and leadership trainer, a proud immigrant, and a chronic illness advocate. A leading coach to notable leaders, executives, and founders—Amina's mastery is in connecting us to our brilliance and teaching us to live and lead from it each day. She is the bestselling author of The Ambition Trap: How to Stop Chasing and Start Living, with Penguin/The Open Field.- - - - - - - - -If you liked this episode of the Get Styled Podcast, tell your friends!
