In this episode, I speak about the importance of saying no—not just to others, but also to myself and my own ideas. I reflect on feeling overwhelmed by work and the many projects that compete for my attention, and I realize the need to prioritize tasks that directly contribute to my business’s financial success. I question the role of this podcast in that equation and consider whether I should continue it, make it more sustainable, or shift focus. I share honest thoughts on burnout, the pursuit of financial freedom, and the risk of becoming a slave to my own ambitions. I also reach out to you for feedback on supporting the show, perhaps with a Buy Me a Coffee page, or whether you’d like to hear more interviews and guest episodes. Let me know what resonates with you and how you deal with these challenges as an entrepreneur!
