Do It for the Plot: How to Find More Meaning in Your Career (and Life)

Amber Deibert

July 14, 2025




You hit six figures. You got the job.

You did everything you thought would finally make you feel successful… and yet, you still feel stuck.

In this episode, I’m naming something most high performers are too busy (or too proud) to admit: that outward success doesn’t always equal inner satisfaction.

I share how I built a career chasing milestones, and how it left me feeling disconnected, directionless, and emotionally flat. That’s when I found the “Hero on a Mission” framework. And it changed everything.

In this episode, I riff on:

↠ Why reaching your goals doesn’t guarantee fulfillment

↠ The trap of moving mile markers and chasing the next high

↠ A narrative shift: what if you’re the hero of a story?

↠ The “Will the hero…” question that rewires how you live

↠ How writing your eulogy creates instant clarity

↠ Breaking generational patterns, healing self-worth, and finding joy

You’ll walk away with a powerful mindset shift that turns everyday decisions into plot-building moments, and your life into a meaningful story.

Hi, I’m Amber, the go-to performance coach for enterprise tech sellers looking to ditch mindset trash, streamline their workday, and get more done with less friction. 

I’ve been coaching full-time for over 6 years, and with hundreds of sellers (1000+ sessions and counting!) under my belt. 

I know what it takes to help high performers reach new heights—and still have time to be present with your family + personal life.


I spent years in tech, myself. In roles like Learning & Development, Leadership, Sales Enablement, and System Administration. 


I know what it’s like to manage a mile-long to-do list and the pressure of being a top performer at a rocketship startup. 


I’ve also been where my clients are: overwhelmed, unsure of myself, and thinking everyone around me was naturally more confident and driven. 


But here's the thing—confidence isn’t about being born with it. It’s about having the right mindset and habits to back yourself up. 


That’s where I come in.
