In this deeply honest and empowering episode of She Can Humanise Business, Kiani Mills is joined by LinkedIn expert, former advertising executive, and coach Rachel Lounds for a powerful conversation about identity, burnout, reinvention, and the courage to step fully into yourself.
Rachel shares her journey from a 20-year corporate career in the advertising industry, where she struggled with confidence, imposter syndrome, and toxic workplace environments, to rebuilding her life and business from rock bottom. After experiencing redundancy, burnout, IVF loss, and the breakdown of a relationship all at once, she was forced to confront her identity, worthiness, and the path she truly wanted to take.
Through personal development, coaching, faith, and deep inner work, Rachel rebuilt her confidence and found the courage to show up authentically in the world. She now helps professionals and founders use LinkedIn as a platform to express their voice, build meaningful relationships, and create opportunities aligned with who they truly are.
Together, Kiani and Rachel explore the power of self-belief, authenticity, and connection, and how the relationships we build, both online and offline, can fundamentally change the trajectory of our lives.
This episode is a reminder that your lowest moments can become the foundation for your greatest transformation, and that when you stop trying to fit in and start trusting yourself, entirely new opportunities begin to emerge.
