Cycle Breakers & Money Makers

74: When protecting success becomes the thing that blocks growth


Listen Later

What if the very strategies that made you successful are now the ones holding you back?

This episode is for the high-achieving First Gen entrepreneur who's already “made it” in many ways—but now finds themselves plateauing, second-guessing, or quietly pulling back.

Whether you’re sitting in a season of capacity or questioning how to evolve what’s already working, you’re not alone.

I’m walking you through what I see over and over again in clients—especially daughters of immigrants who are learning to grow beyond just enough.

This episode will help you identify the internal shifts that keep you from sustaining success peacefully… and show you how to grow without abandoning what matters most.

What I cover in the episode:

  • What it really means to “protect success” and how it subtly blocks growth
  • Two distinct patterns that keep you stuck: the Survivor Cycle and the Vice Grip Cycle
  • Why many First Gen leaders pull back after their biggest financial wins
  • How ease can feel unsafe to the nervous system (and what to do about it)
  • What it’s already costing you when you stay in maintenance mode
  • A real client example of going from 150K → 300K with more ease, not more effort
  • Five steps I walk clients through to realign their offers, marketing, and identity with their next level

This episode blends nervous system safety with strategic clarity—and it’s a must-listen if you’ve been feeling misaligned, unmotivated, or unsure about how to grow from here.
