In this episode, I get real about the chaos I’ve been facing at home with building work and how it’s tested my motivation. If you’re a pet business owner juggling work, family, and all the demands life throws at you, I want you to know you’re not alone. I talk about how motivation isn’t a constant feeling—it comes and goes—and why taking action often helps me find motivation instead of waiting for motivation to strike first.
I share the practical strategies I use to keep moving forward, even when I don’t feel motivated. From creating business systems that run on autopilot to knowing my non-negotiables and having a “low energy menu” of easy tasks, these tools help me stay on track without burning out. I also talk about why resting without guilt is so important and how I stay focused on the long-term vision when progress feels slow.
If you’re feeling stuck or overwhelmed, or you just need a reminder that you don’t have to be motivated all the time to succeed, this episode is for you.
