In Soul Sparks, hosted by Archita, Karen Ann Bulluck shares what happens when success looks right—but feels off. That quiet “something’s missing” can be the start of soul work, not a breakdown.
This episode is for leaders, builders, and high-achievers navigating pressure, burnout, or trust fractures. You’ll hear how spirituality can live inside the boardroom, why self-trust erodes through small compromises, and how to rebuild trust with presence—not performance.
About the Guest:
Karen Ann Bulluck is an author and former corporate executive exploring the inner life of leadership. She’s written the Ascending Ladder series (including Discovering Power) and her new book, Embracing Trust.
Episode Chapter:
- 00:00 — When success stops feeling like alignment
- 04:00 — The first quiet signal: unease that builds over time
- 08:00 — Spirituality inside the boardroom (not outside it)
- 13:00 — How trust erodes: profits vs values, words vs actions
- 18:00 — Rebuilding trust without bypassing the pain
- 23:00 — Daily grounding practices that prevent relapse into defenses
- 27:00 — Where to find Karen + closing reflection
Key Takeaways:
- Notice “unease” early—it’s data, not weakness.
- Use 2–5 minutes of grounding before hard meetings.
- Track where actions drift from values; repair fast and clearly.
- Rebuild trust with apology + a forward plan, not quick reassurance.
- Treat spirituality as a daily practice, not a crisis tool.
