How to Discover Yourself, One Decision at a Time | Sara Kuburic

In this episode, Dr. Sara Kuburic discusses how to discover yourself, one decision at a time. Questions like: Who are you beyond your job, your relationships, and the roles you fill? Drawing from her book, It’s on Me: Accept Hard Truths, Discover Yourself, and Change Your Life, Sara shares how she lost touch with herself while building a life that looked good from the outside. She also explores why understanding your past is only part of creating change, how taking responsibility differs from blaming yourself, and how small, intentional choices can help you build a life that feels like your own.
