Episode 96 | How to Rebuild Your Self Worth Brick by Brick | Jarek Tadla

What happens when you achieve everything you thought would make you happy and still feel empty inside?

In this episode of Wisdom Stripes, Meg Tuohey sits down with entrepreneur, real estate investor, Ironman athlete, author, and speaker Jarek Tadla for a deeply personal conversation about success, identity, vulnerability, and what it really means to come home to yourself.

Jarek shares his journey from immigrating to the United States at 21 and washing dishes to building one of the largest privately held real estate portfolios in the country. But behind the financial freedom, accomplishments, and outward success was a growing disconnect from himself. After years of pushing harder, building walls, and using achievement as proof that he was “enough,” Jarek reached a breaking point that forced him to completely rethink the way he was living.

Together, Meg and Jarek explore how our inner critic can become our identity, why the relationship we have with ourselves shapes every other relationship in our lives, and what happens when our outer success no longer matches our inner world. Jarek opens up about depression, his 44 days of darkness, and the slow process of rebuilding his life—not by returning to who he had been, but by creating a new relationship with himself one small win at a time.

They also discuss vulnerability, generational programming, self-worth, faith, stillness, emotional resilience, and why healing sometimes requires letting go of the standards that once drove us.

This conversation is a reminder that true wealth isn’t only about what you build around you. It’s about what you build within you.

Episode 95 | Why Curiosity Might Be the Most Important Skill You'll Ever Build | Rene Laacad

"People think success comes from having the perfect plan. Rene Laacad thinks it comes from asking better questions."

In this thoughtful and unexpectedly philosophical episode of Wisdom Stripes, Meg Tuohey sits down with entrepreneur Rene Laacad, who went from college dropout to building multiple seven-figure businesses through marketing, content creation, and relentless experimentation. But this conversation isn't really about making money. It's about curiosity, exploration, finding your people, and creating a life that feels genuinely yours.

Together, they explore why so many of us commit to a future before we truly know ourselves, why community is one of the greatest advantages in both business and life, and why technology may be making us more connected while leaving us feeling more isolated than ever.

🎧 Tune in and learn:

Why following curiosity often leads to better outcomes than following a predetermined career path

The surprising connection between play, learning, and building valuable skills

How finding the right community changes the way you see yourself—and what's possible

Why AI should never replace real relationships and honest feedback

The simple shift that helped Rene build successful businesses while keeping family at the center of his life

You don't have to have your whole life figured out. Sometimes the next step only becomes visible once you start exploring.
