n this episode, Rosemary sits down with Justin Breen, visionary entrepreneur, former journalist, and author of the upcoming book Epic Journey, to explore what it truly means to live an epic life—beyond money, titles, and external success.
Justin shares his journey from two decades as a journalist to building companies and writing books that focus on purpose, intuition, and the rise of the divine feminine. He reflects on the pivotal moments that shaped his path, including a profound shift in how he views leadership, success, and the human constructs—like business and sales—that often keep people trapped in anxiety and ego.
Throughout the conversation, Justin introduces his four-part pattern for identifying visionaries, discusses the role of trauma as fuel rather than excuse, and explains how tools like human design and numerology helped him understand his own rare 11 life path. He also offers a candid look at the dynamics between masculine and feminine energy, the importance of embracing both, and why so many high-performing women leaders are overcompensating in ways that leave them disconnected from what truly matters.
This episode is a thoughtful and deeply human conversation about purpose, relationships, and the courage it takes to unlearn old definitions of success in order to build something that lasts.

The Real Cost of Hiring Cheap
“If you think it’s expensive to hire a professional to do the job, wait until you hire an amateur.”
—Red Adair
Every time I see this quote, I’m reminded of how true it is in hiring. The cheapest option almost always turns out to be the most expensive.
Expertise saves you money, time, and headaches, always. The hard lesson is this: what looks like a good deal usually isn’t.
Quality has its price.

The Hire That Looked Perfect
The Hire That Looked Perfect
It looked like the perfect hire.
Strong resume.
Confident in the interview.
Great culture fit.Three months later, I was back in every decision.
Client approvals.
Team clarifications.
Budget adjustments.Nothing moved without me.
The problem wasn’t the person.
It was the role.
We hired talent.
But we never defined ownership.No clear decision rights.
No protected authority.
No metric that was fully theirs.So every issue climbed back up the ladder.
Here’s what founders miss:
If authority isn’t explicitly transferred, it defaults back to you.
Hiring didn’t fail.
Role design did.Growth adds people.
Scale redistributes control.Quick question:
What decisions are still coming back to you that shouldn’t be?

What It Takes to Scale with Purpose
What It Takes to Scale with Purpose
Grateful for an incredibly insightful conversation today with Mely Torres,
Founder of On Point Strategy (OPS), on my podcast The Hiring Conversation.
We talked about what it really takes to build and scale a mission-driven business, including remote team management, hiring high-performing talent, and how to create strong systems and accountability when your team isn’t all in the same place.
Mely shared such thoughtful perspective on leadership, growth, and building a team that can truly execute.
Thank you again, Mely, I loved the conversation and can’t wait to share this episode soon!
