About this episode

Keila Doyle shares her journey of stepping back from a successful tech career to prioritize her mental health and personal well-being.

She had the career. The money. The success. And it was taking her soul. Keila Doyle built and sold a tech company in London, then quietly fell apart. The anxiety crept in, the identity started to unravel, and she had to make a call: keep going, or step back and actually take care of herself. She chose herself. What came next was a move to Dubai, a golf club in her hands for the first time, and a front-row seat to just how intimidating and exclusionary that world can be for beginners. So she decided to change it. This is a conversation about the real cost of success, what it takes to start over, and why sometimes the bravest thing you can do is stop. Take a listen! 🎙️ The Unstoppable 5%
