What Burnout Taught Me About Living in Alignment - The Story Behind The Designed Life
In this intimate solo episode, Ameera shares the pivotal moments that led her from a “picture-perfect” life into a health crisis, and ultimately into a deeper, more aligned way of living and leading. From a misdiagnosis that accidentally saved her, to unravelling childhood grief and fear, to rebuilding nervous system safety and self-trust, Ameera walks through the exact inner work that helped her rewrite her life. She now uses that same Aligned Success & Freedom Framework with the women she mentors so they can design and experience lives and businesses by intention not by default.
What You’ll Hear
- The misdiagnosis that became a turning point
- How chronic burnout + unprocessed loss fed a cycle of fear around illness and death.
- Returning to roots in personal development and actually living the work.
- Practical mindset shifts: questioning catastrophic thoughts, choosing solution-focused beliefs.
- Building nervous system safety and self-trust; why symptoms can become “messages.”
- Grieving her brother’s passing and the role of aligned therapy and spiritual curiosity.
- Creating the Clarity → Alignment → Action framework and using it to navigate the path between job loss and entrepreneurship.
- Choosing alignment over certainty: paying down debt, going all-in on business, and mentoring women leaders.
