Description:

What happens when high performers ignore their body, suppress vulnerability, and power through for too long?


In this episode of The Mark Divine Show, entrepreneur and author Melissa Gonzalez shares the pivotal moment that forced her to rethink leadership, success, and wellbeing. After years on Wall Street and building fast-growing companies, her body finally demanded attention—triggering a profound shift in how she leads, lives, and listens.


This conversation explores:

-Why high achievers ignore early warning signs until crisis hits

-The hidden cost of “powering through” in leadership and life

-How intuition and vulnerability become leadership advantages—not liabilities

-Why slowing down actually increases clarity, impact, and performance

-How purpose isn’t something you do—but something you embody


Melissa breaks down the lessons behind her book The Purpose Pivot, revealing how leaders—especially women—can build sustainable success without sacrificing their health, family, or identity.


If you’re leading at a high level but feeling disconnected, depleted, or stuck in constant output mode, this episode will challenge how you define strength—and show you a better way forward.
