Description

Feeling burnt out and drained in your business? Not sure what truly lights you up anymore? You're not alone, and more importantly — you don't have to stay stuck there.

In this powerful follow-up episode, I'm diving deep into the practical strategies that will help you rediscover joy in your entrepreneurial journey. This isn't about toxic positivity or pretending everything is fine — it's about giving yourself permission to explore, create, and experience genuine fulfillment in the work you're building.

After more than a decade of coaching women entrepreneurs, I've learned that joy isn't something you earn after you "make it." Joy is the fuel that gets you there. And if you're feeling like you're just going through the motions or chasing someone else's definition of success, this episode is your wake-up call.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

• Why giving yourself permission to explore new ideas (without implementing them all) can reignite your passion
• The "one or two rule" for pursuing new opportunities without burning out
• How to identify and eliminate the "shoulds" that are draining your energy
• My personal story of recognizing I was the bottleneck in my own business — and how I fixed it
• The question that reveals where your biggest frustrations hold the most potential for joy
• Why delaying joy until you "achieve more" is keeping you stuck
• How to build micro-doses of joy into your daily routine right now
