In this powerful episode of Monday Morning Mojo, we explore what happens after the shedding season, and how to step boldly into your next level without waiting for perfect clarity.

In this powerful and personal conversation, Anna sits down with her colleague and friend Dana Gentry to explore what it really means to grow with intention — in business, leadership, faith, and life.

Dana shares her 20-year journey in real estate and leadership, revealing the pivotal moments that taught her growth isn’t just about scale or success, but about alignment. Together, Anna and Dana unpack the cost of burnout, the danger of comparison, and the freedom that comes from learning to run your own race.

This episode dives deep into intentional leadership, stewarding people well, setting boundaries with your time, and why restoration — not hustle — is often the next level of growth. Dana also opens up about the defining moment that inspired her new book RESTORE, and why living intentionally can transform not just your work, but your entire life.

If you’ve ever felt successful on paper but disconnected on the inside, this conversation will meet you right where you are.

• Growth without alignment leads to burnout and drift
• Intentional living starts with how you steward your time, talent, and treasures
• Proximity matters — who you surround yourself with shapes who you become
• Comparison steals focus; running your own race creates peace and momentum
• Leadership is stewardship, not management
• You can be successful and feel restored — but it requires courage, boundaries, and daily intention

• Why success alone doesn’t guarantee fulfillment
• The four pillars that shaped Dana’s growth journey
• The power of proximity and mentorship
• Letting go of comparison in a social-media-driven world
• Burnout, boundaries, and learning when to say no
• The inspiration behind RESTORE: 90 Days of Intentional Living
• Faith, leadership, and bringing purpose into the business space

Dana’s new book, RESTORE: 90 Days of Intentional Living in Life, Faith, and Business, is a daily reader designed to help leaders stop drifting and start living on purpose — one day at a time.
