Chapter 9: From Alignment to Self-Love with Kian Alberto (Part 2)

What does it mean to truly align with yourself? In this transformative episode, Kian Alberto returns to explore the deep connections between self-love, alignment, and the pursuit of purpose. Together, we unravel how life’s unexpected detours—whether a job you loathe or a path you never planned to take—can become your greatest blessings.

From reframing failures as opportunities to finding clarity in discomfort, Kian shares his personal journey and offers practical steps for embracing challenges, cultivating a positive mindset, and unlocking your potential. We discuss startups as a playground for self-discovery, the power of sobriety from personal vices, and why spirituality might just be the missing piece in your journey toward alignment.

If you’ve ever waited for the “perfect moment” to start something new, this episode will nudge you to stop waiting and start doing. Because, as Kian puts it, the best superpower you can have, is being fully aligned with yourself.

Tune in, reflect, and take the first step toward the life you deserve.

Featuring Kian Alberto, entrepreneur and founder of Nurses to Nannies
