Episode 11: How Victoria Built Products People Love, Burned Out and Turned That Into Her Life's Work

Victoria Colombato left home at 18. No plan. Just courage. What followed was a decade across 6 continents - leading growth teams at Mercado Libre and MURAL, learning how to build products people genuinely love by understanding not just systems, but people. Then burnout hit. And the version of success she'd built stopped feeling like her own. She tried everything. Therapy. Journaling. Breathwork. Nothing stuck. Then she found hypnotherapy - and for the first time, something actually shifted. In this episode we learn how Victoria rebuilt her identity from the inside out, what burnout really looks like when you're winning on paper, and how that journey became Tabula Rasa; a business helping high-achievers navigate their own moments of transition. This one went places we didn't expect.
