This Mother Means Business: Strategy, Advice, and Support for Mom Entrepreneurs

Burnout or Breakthrough? What to Do When You Want to Burn Your Business Down


Listen Later

Ever felt like throwing your laptop out the window, quitting your business, and escaping to a Wi-Fi-free cabin in the woods? Yeah, me too. In this episode of This Mother Means Business, I’m getting real with you—no strategy, no fluff, just truth. If you're emotionally drained, overwhelmed, and questioning everything about your business, this one's for you. You're not broken, you're just tired—and it's time to pause before making any drastic moves.

I’ll walk you through the moments when it all feels too heavy—what they really mean, what not to do, and how to get clarity without burning down everything you’ve built. You’ll hear the three powerful questions I come back to every time I'm on the brink and why your luteal phase might be playing a bigger role in your burnout than you think. This is your permission slip to rest, reset, and rebuild from a place of alignment—not pressure. You don’t need a full rebrand—you just need to come home to yourself.


[0:00] - Feeling like lighting your business on fire? You’re not alone.
[1:12] - Why you’re not broken—you’re just carrying too much without a break.
[2:10] - What not to do when burnout hits (and why powering through doesn't work).
[2:58] - The burnout-business cycle connection: Check where you are in your cycle.
[3:40] - The three questions I ask myself when everything feels too heavy.
[4:55] - You probably don’t need a rebrand—just a reset (and maybe a break from your inbox).
[5:47] - Why stepping away from your business is key to finding clarity.
[6:40] - You’re not the only one feeling this way—and here’s your next step.


 If this episode hit home, I’d love for you to share it with a fellow mom in business who needs to hear it. Don’t forget to rate, follow, and leave a review—it helps so much. Until next time, take the pause. You deserve it.
