Beyond the Hustle: How to Build a Business Aligned with Your Soul

Founders Future

In this episode of Founders Future, host Ammar Elm sits down with Gina DiStefano, President of DiStefano Group, to explore her transformative journey from corporate life to building a performance coaching firm that helps professionals unlock their full potential. Gina shares her powerful story of self-discovery—how she left a Fortune 500 career to start her own business, only to face deep personal challenges that reshaped her approach to coaching. She reveals her proprietary Revitalized System, designed to help Gen Xers and high achievers break free from limiting beliefs, align with their purpose, and create fulfilling lives beyond societal expectations.

Gina dives into the core of her coaching philosophy—why true transformation requires radical self-awareness, confronting subconscious programming, and rewriting personal narratives. She discusses the importance of intentionality, energetic alignment, and building authentic relationships in business, rather than relying solely on transactional marketing. With raw honesty, she explains how her own struggles with self-worth and identity led her to develop a coaching framework that empowers clients to alchemize pain into power and step into their divine potential. Whether you're an entrepreneur, leader, or someone seeking deeper fulfillment, Gina’s insights offer a roadmap for personal and professional reinvention.
