In this episode of Mindset Mastery, Julissa sits down with retired Air Force veteran and career ownership coach Todd Bigney for a deeply honest conversation about fulfillment, freedom, and redefining what success actually looks like.

After spending 20 years in the Air Force and another 12 in corporate America, Todd found himself financially secure but emotionally unfulfilled. What followed was a powerful pivot into entrepreneurship and career ownership coaching, where he now helps people explore business ownership as a pathway to alignment, autonomy, and long-term satisfaction.

This episode is for anyone who feels stuck, burned out, or quietly wondering if there’s more available to them.


Talked about in this episode:

  • Why corporate stability no longer equals security
  • The emotional cost of staying in unfulfilling careers
  • Entrepreneurship vs. traditional career coaching
  • Fear as “false evidence appearing real”
  • The importance of education before making big career moves
  • Why support systems make or break entrepreneurs
  • Mental health, mindset, and resilience in business ownership
  • Financial realities of the first year in business
  • Redefining success beyond money and titles
  • How freedom impacts family, faith, and personal fulfillment
