Coming from Corporate America and The Walt Disney Studios, I believed serious hustle was just how business worked. But once I stepped off the treadmill and chose to restructure my consulting practice around a sustainable business mindset of clarity, boundaries, and joy—everything changed.

In this episode, I share the reframe that's helped me triple my revenue while working fewer, more fulfilling hours, and why putting FUN FIRST isn’t just possible, it’s profitable.

You’ll hear practical shifts you can try this week to get out of overwork and back into the work you love!

🎯 You’ll Discover:

• How I designed my 3-day workweek with simple systems
• What a “No Meeting Monday” and my famous Batch December sabbatical really look like
• Why fun is a strategic filter—and how to use it to protect your energy

• A mindset shift to help you confidently turn down misaligned clients
