EP30 Positional Power vs True Power with Runa Bouius

What if burnout isn’t just caused by stress or overwork… but by disconnection from your own personal power? In this deeply thought-provoking episode, Sophie sits down with Rúna Bouius spiritual leadership mentor and founder of the True Power Institute, to unpack the difference between positional power and personal power, and why so many high achievers burn out despite outward success. Together, they explore how modern society teaches people to achieve, perform, and climb but rarely teaches emotional awareness, nervous system regulation, authenticity, or connection to self. This episode is powerful, reflective, and deeply relevant for leaders, founders, and ambitious people navigating modern work and identity. Because burnout isn’t always about doing too much. Sometimes it’s about becoming someone you no longer recognize. 🎙️ Guest: Rúna Bouius, Spiritual Leadership Mentor & Founder of True Power Institute 📍 Hosted by Sophie Theen If this episode moved something in you, please follow, rate, or share the show.
