In this episode of my show Through a Trauma-Informed Lens: Soma, Psyche and Soul, I explore what it really means to grow a thriving business without falling into hustle, striving, or burnout. So many of the women I mentor and train are deeply caring, skilled, and passionate about their work - yet they often struggle with visibility, marketing, and promotion. Words like these can feel alien or even threatening to the nervous system. But building a sustainable business is possible - without sacrificing your health, values or joy. In this episode I share my own story of moving from Social Care into running my own business, and the lessons I’ve learned about creating a soulful, profitable, and impactful practice on your own terms. Together, we’ll reflect on what it looks like to build a business that is aligned, embodied, and sustainable - especially if you are in the early Autumn of your life.
In this episode I talk about:
Why hustle-culture success stories (like Alex Hormozi’s) don’t work for many women - and what to do instead.
How burnout shapes our relationship to business and why “more” isn’t always the answer.
Why words like marketing and promotion feel triggering - and how to shift your perspective.
The reality that business skills are learned, not innate, and how to give yourself permission to be a learner.
Simple ways to take aligned, nervous-system-friendly steps toward your dream business.
As we move into Autumn, I invite you to pause and reflect: What do you want to focus on in the last months of the year? What support do you need to move forward with ease, trust, and alignment? The answers to those questions will guide you to take your next aligned step.
