In this powerful solo episode, I get raw and honest about why I stepped away from a thriving 20k/month business. I share the messy, emotional journey behind that decision, including the grief, identity crisis, and inner transformation that pushed me to create something more aligned, soulful, and sustainable. This is not just a story of business evolution - it's a story of personal awakening, healing, and redefining success on my own terms.

Here’s what you’ll hear in this episode:

• Why I left a wildly successful business that "worked on paper" but felt wrong in my body
• How performance, people-pleasing, and trauma fueled my high-achieving patterns
• The turning point that cracked me open: grief, motherhood, and meeting my truth
• The real reason traditional strategies stopped working for me
• My new approach to business that prioritizes intuition, depth, and impact over hustle
• What it actually looks like to build a business that aligns with your soul
•
