What up, Beasts. Welcome back to the show! Today’s guest, Emily Hawkins, brought the absolute fire. She’s a fractional COO for small businesses across the U.S.. She’s basically the go-to person when your business feels like a colander leaking pasta (her metaphor, not mine, and I’m obsessed). Emily doesn’t just fix operations, she fixes people. She helps business owners stop bleeding money, reclaim their time, and ultimately, take better care of themselves. What struck me most is how she sees health not as a side effect of success, but as a core part of it. She’s watched corporate execs literally drop dead from burnout, and she’s on a mission to rewrite that script, one smart system and one gym session at a time.
Emily and I went deep into the ripple effect of a regulated, supported business owner, how reclaiming time and letting go of assumptions can improve not just profit margins but sleep, relationships, parenting, even blood pressure. I mean, this woman had hypertension under a toxic boss and dead-person vitals once she left. That’s not just business consulting. That’s liberation. Our convo reinforced what I teach in health coaching every day: everything is connected. Your chaos isn’t just in your calendar or your body. It’s in your systems, your beliefs, your nervous system, and your leadership style. And the good news? If you’re the problem, you’re also the solution.

What if health wasn’t about rules or restriction?What if it felt more like trust, ease, and actually liking the person in the mirror?
I help people rebuild their relationship with food, movement, and themselves, so health becomes something you live, not something you chase.
