Today’s episode is a masterclass in courage, reinvention, and the kind of faith-fueled trust it takes to leap into the unknown.

I’m joined by Monica Dressler, owner of Burn Boot Camp Northville, former 25-year law partner, and a woman who proves it is never too late to rewrite your story.

After decades in a successful legal career, Monica felt the unmistakable pull toward something that lit her up: building a community where women feel strong, confident, supported, and unstoppable.

With nothing but passion, a willingness to experiment, and a deep belief in God’s plan for her life, Monica made a radical career pivot, draining her 401(k), stepping into small business ownership, and trusting that the spark inside her would guide the way.

Today, she leads one of the most empowering fitness communities in Michigan, helping women discover the strongest versions of themselves, inside and out.

In this conversation, Monica opens up about:
✨ The Intensity Point that made staying in her old career harder than taking the leap
✨ How passion became her only “qualified” skill and why it was enough
✨ The identity shift from law partner to community leader
✨ The fears that almost stopped her and the belief that was louder
✨ What reinventing yourself really looks like at midlife
✨ Why preparation, purpose, and prayer are the foundation of every next chapter
✨ How Burn Boot Camp is transforming women’s lives daily
✨ What she teaches her teen daughters about confidence, empathy, and standing strong

Monica’s story is a reminder that your life is yours to live: boldly, authentically, and in alignment with what sets your soul on fire.

If you’re standing at the edge of a leap…this episode is your sign!

What happens when a high-achieving partner at a global consulting firm hits pause—and rebuilds her life from the inside out—and now helps others do the same?

In this episode of Bring Your Big Energy, Stacey sits down with leadership and life coach Suzanne Roske, Founder of Vamonos Executive Coaching and author of I’m Supposed to Be Doing This.
