Deeply Rested: Anti-Capitalist Conversations for Entrepreneurs

Contraction vs. Constriction: What Winter Trees Teach Us About Business Growth


Listen Later

What if slowing down is exactly what your business needs right now? In this debut episode of Let's Go Outside, entrepreneur coach Maegan Megginson takes you into the winter woods to explore one of the most misunderstood dynamics in business ownership: the difference between contraction and constriction.

Drawing parallels between winter trees pulling energy into their roots and the natural cycles of running a business, Maegan reframes what it means to step back and go inward. Contraction isn't failure. It's essential preparation for growth.

In this episode, you'll learn:

  • Why a slow season in your business might be exactly what you need
  • How to tell whether you're in a healthy contraction or a fear-based state of constriction
  • How to nurture the stirrings of new growth as you move into a new season

Let's Go Outside is a series for entrepreneurs and solopreneurs who are tired of sourcing all their wisdom from Google searches and endless Instagram scrolling. Nature has been running sustainable, resilient systems for millions of years. It's time we paid attention.

As spring approaches, Maegan invites you to reflect on where you're ready to bloom, and how to support that growth in your life and business.
