Discipline isn’t about hustle or perfection—it’s a form of self-care. It’s believing in where you’re going, even when no one else sees it.

In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on a business moment that broke my heart—one of my most anticipated classes flopped due to a major tech fail (thank you, AWS 😅). After weeks of preparation, thousands of registrations, and a heart-driven message I couldn’t wait to share… hardly anyone could access it.

It was devastating.

But it became a powerful lesson in letting go of control and focusing on what really matters: effort over outcome.

If you’ve ever asked, “Why is this happening?”—this episode is for you.

Because yes, things will go wrong in business. And yes, you’ll still be okay.
