I Can't Do This Anymore: Navigating Entrepreneur Burnout [new podcast episode]


Hello Reader,

In today's episode, I'm getting real about something we all face but rarely talk about: those moments when we feel like we just can't handle being an entrepreneur anymore.

You know those days - when a contractor quits unexpectedly, you're working around the clock, your kid gets sick right before an important meeting, or a big client jumps ship. I've been there, and as you know, it's rough.

In this episode, I'm opening up about:

  • My personal experiences with entrepreneurial burnout (yes, I have those "I want to burn it all down" moments!)
  • Why it's totally normal to feel overwhelmed sometimes (hint: it's not just you)
  • Practical strategies you can use to get through those "I can't do this anymore" phases

I'll share some eye-opening questions we can ask ourselves when we're at our wit's end.

Plus, I'll share some gentle reminders.

Remember, acknowledging that you're struggling isn't a sign of weakness - it's the first step to reclaiming your power as a business owner.

If you've ever felt like you're on an emotional rollercoaster (and let's face it, who hasn't?), this episode is for you. Listen in here.

Gratefully,

In this episode, I talk about: The common ups and downs of being an entrepreneur (spoiler: business ownership is not always Instagram-worthy)...

Hello Reader, I was so excited to talk to Mariah Scrivens, host of the Make it Happen podcast, because: 1) She's actually local to me!! (I live in a rural area in southeastern Ontario so most of the biz folks I meet online are far from me) 2) I felt so validated!! It's rare that I feel validated! I'm usually the one doing the validating. You have to listen in because this two-part conversation is just so delicious. Part 1 (20 minutes) :...

Hello Reader, If you're a night owl or a sleepless entrepreneur, today's episode is for you. I'm talking about something that's kept me up nights: how to actually get some sleep when your brain refuses to power down. As business owners, our minds are our superpowers. But sometimes, that superpower goes into overdrive, leaving us staring at the ceiling at 2 AM, wondering, "Why can't I sleep even though I'm exhausted?!" In this episode, I'm sharing: My personal struggles with insomnia and what...
