199: When the Dream Job Becomes Too Much with Betty Fotofili

Lights, camera… burnout. After years of working on The Matrix Reloaded and Crazy Rich Asians, the relentless grind of 60-hour weeks and constant travel took its toll. The dream career wasn’t so dreamy anymore—it was exhausting. Walking away wasn’t easy, but staying was no longer an option.

In this episode, Betty Fotofili shares how she broke free from the chaos of Hollywood, found purpose beyond the film set, and built a business that finally gave her the freedom she craved. If you’re stuck in a cycle that no longer serves you, her story might be the wake-up call you need.
