Is it really possible to have it all — success, rest, creativity, and joy — without burning out? What if the secret to sustainable success isn't doing more — but giving yourself permission to do less?

In this deeply candid episode of the LifePilot Podcast, I sit down with my friend and money mentor Denise Duffield-Thomas for one of the most honest conversations we've ever had about business, burnout, and the courage to completely redesign your life.

Denise shares her vulnerable journey from peak earning (and peak exhaustion) to taking an 18-month sabbatical, selling million-dollar properties, and rediscovering joy through ballet and cross-stitch. We explore the seasons of entrepreneurship, the art of asking for help, and why giving yourself permission to change your mind might be the most radical act of self-care.

This episode is for every woman who's ever felt guilty for slowing down, struggled to ask for support, or wondered if there's more to success than constant achievement.

What You’ll Learn:

• Why “having it all” means redefining what all looks like for you
• The hidden costs of people-pleasing and over-functioning
• How to set better boundaries — in business, life, and motherhood
• The power of creating support (even when you think you "should" do it all)
• Why Denise took an 18-month sabbatical — and what she learned
• How to let go of what no longer serves you (even if it was once your dream)
• The importance of seasonal living and adapting your business model accordingly
