Are you climbing higher, or just climbing the wrong mountain? For many leaders, success is supposed to feel like arrival. Instead, it becomes the beginning of a deeper question. What happens when you’ve achieved what you set out to do, but it no longer feels aligned?
In this episode of Reflect Forward, Kerry Siggins sits down with Nathalia Del Moral, co-founder of Next Mountain Life, to explore what it really means to step into your “next mountain.” This is the shift from externally driven success to a more intentional, purpose-driven way of living and leading. They unpack why high performers often feel disoriented after success, the identity shifts that follow, and how ambition evolves from proving to contributing. Nathalia shares insights from her work with executives and entrepreneurs navigating major life and leadership transitions. Kerry also reflects on her own journey, from rebuilding her life after an overdose in her twenties to the evolution she is stepping into now. A chapter defined by one clear decision. She is no longer willing to sacrifice her freedom for ambition, validation, or external expectations. This conversation challenges the traditional narrative of success and offers a more grounded path forward. One where ambition is not eliminated, but refined. One where leaders build without self betrayal. If you are questioning what comes next in your career, leadership, or life, this episode will give you language for what you are feeling and a framework for what to do with it. Connect with Nathalia:
