“I didn’t just take off a mask - I had to question everything I thought was me.” ~ Miranda Lievers
In this bold and beautiful episode, Miranda Lievers, tech co-founder, systems thinker, and midlife reinventor, shares the story of what happens when you realize the life you've built wasn’t truly yours.
After co-founding a multi-million dollar tech company and spending decades in a monogamous marriage, Miranda stepped away from it all and began the long journey home to herself. That journey led to an adult autism diagnosis, coming out as queer, exploring polyamory and kink, and rediscovering her deepest truths. One unraveling at a time.
This episode is a masterclass in reinvention, radical honesty, and the power of choosing yourself again and again.
