Carrie Green: Finding Joy Again After Burnout

"I Don't Think I Can Do This Anymore"


In this beautifully revealing, intimate conversation, Carrie Green opens up about the darkest period of her business journey. In this episode Carrie shares with us the most generous and honest reflection on entrepreneurial burnout that I've ever heard.


Having founded the Female Entrepreneur Association (FEA) in 2011 (which she grew into 7-figure business with a network of almost 1 million women) Carrie is an international bestselling author (She Means Business, Hay House) and an online business trailblazer. But today we're stepping back from the shiny stuff in her list of incredible achievements to talk burnout, motherhood, and the darker sides of business success.


"I'd be getting home from work every night saying to my husband, I don't think I can do this anymore," she reveals. "I felt so trapped by it all."


While Carrie's body was screaming at her to slow down... she pushed on through... until she physically, mentally and emotionally could not go on. But that's not the end of our story: we discover that Carrie's just closed out her best launch of all time, after slowly having found her way back to her health, wellbeing and magic.


In this episode we explore the complex reality of managing a team for a multi-million pound online business, the weight of avoiding difficult conversations, and how hiring full-time "experts" to solve your problems can backfire spectacularly. Carrie's brutal honesty about the real challenges she's faced as a leader and the emotional toll of getting some of it wrong, is so wildly refreshing.


If you've ever felt trapped by your success, questioned whether you're cut out for leadership, or wondered how to rebuild when everything feels broken, this conversation is for you!



What You'll Learn:

  • The physical warning signs Carrie ignored before her body forced her to pay attention
  • Why hiring "experts" to solve your problems often creates more chaos than clarity
  • How avoiding difficult conversations with team members nearly destroyed her business
  • The specific work and practices that helped her rebuild
  • How energy and frequency directly impact business results
  • Why Carrie believes success should equal joy and what happens when it doesn't

  • Female Entrepreneur Association
  • Patrick Lencioni's leadership books (especially "The Motive")
  • Her podcast (recently hit #59 in Apple's business charts!)
