Show Notes
Ep 537. This week, Renee chats with Carla Ondrasik, former music publishing executive turned mentor and author, about success, identity, and why sometimes the best thing you can do is stop trying. Carla shares stories from her career developing chart-topping artists like Barbra Streisand, Mariah Carey, and Christina Aguilera — and what walking away from the industry taught her about worth, balance, and family.
They dive into the pressure so many women feel to prove themselves, the danger of tying identity to achievement, and the freedom that comes from redefining success on your own terms. Carla’s upcoming book Stop Trying! is both her story and a guide for anyone ready to let go of constant striving and finally start living.
