If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, stretched too thin, or questioning if you’re even cut out for this—this episode is for you.

In this solo episode, I’m sharing my personal story of hitting a full-blown mental health crisis in 2023, what it looked like to shut my business down for six months, and how I slowly rebuilt everything around ease, joy, and honoring my actual energy (not what hustle culture told me I should be able to handle).

You’ll also hear real quotes from 100+ business owners I’ve surveyed this year about how they’re really doing behind the scenes—because spoiler: burnout is way more common than we like to admit.

Inside, we’ll talk about:
✨ How to recognize the signs of burnout before they hit crisis level
✨ What your body might be trying to tell you (and how to listen)
✨ How to build your calendar around your actual capacity
✨ The boundaries that help me feel energized instead of depleted
✨ Why joy and rest are not rewards—they’re requirements

This episode is part story, part reflection, and part practical support to help you start building a business that works for you. Not one that drains you.

And if you’re ready for more support in doing this work, I’d love to have you inside The Dream Biz Lab—my cozy coaching community for creative and neurodivergent entrepreneurs who are done with the hustle and ready to grow sustainably, on their terms.
