I'm a writer, entrepreneur, business advisor, and former teen mom who built a 7-figure business by dreaming through chaos.
Ambitious and Exhausted is my newsletter for Millennials and Xennials who did all the things, got the degrees, built the careers, hit the goals, and still can't chill. Each week I work through the things we're all working through: leading, creating, living, building businesses, and stepping into what's next.

Trudi Lebron is Ambitious and Exhausted is a podcast for millennial entrepreneurs, leaders, and creatives who are finally asking hard questions out loud... you built the thing, you hit the goals, you did everything you were supposed to do.
Why does is feel like... this?
Each season features honest conversations with entrepreneurs who have done it, burned out, burnt it down, and are building differently.
We get into the mindset shifts, the family dynamics, the body stuff, the business decisions, and the research and data that explains why so many of us are running on empty, and what it actually takes to change that.
This isn't a hustle podcast. And it's not a wellness podcast either. It's somewhere in between, for the ones who are still ambitious and finally willing to admit they're exhausted.

For more than two decades, I’ve been designing transformational experiences across education, business, personal development, and culture, all with the goal of shifting how we live, learn, work, and lead.
That perspective is grounded in my own story. I was a teen mom and high school dropout who homeschooled myself back into college at 16. By 32, I was a college professor in Human Services, and by 40, I had built multi–seven–figure businesses, written an award-winning book (The Antiracist Business Book), co-hosted a top-ranked podcast, and advised clients ranging from eight-figure business owners and entire school districts to nonprofit leaders, doctors, therapists, journalists, and authors.
I’ve trained thousands of coaches, teachers, social workers, and entrepreneurs, spoken on TEDx stages, and built a career at the intersection of psychology, equity, and cultural transformation.
Along the way, I’ve also navigated ADHD, perimenopause, and the realities of capacity, experiences that shape not just what I teach but also how I design the spaces where change happens.
Today, my focus is on transformational leadership and creating experiences that shift how leaders live, work, lead, and build community, so that our ambition doesn't cost us our health, capacity, or joy.
