Ep. 7 Sustainable Success vs. Shiny Object Syndrome: Navigating the Starry Eyed Hustler Phase of Entrepreneurship
š« Ever feel like you're doing all the things in your businessā¦ but somehow not gaining real traction?
If you're in that phase of entrepreneurship where you're full of ideas, lit up with passion, and constantly pivoting from one strategy to the next (sound familiar?), this episode is for you. I call it the Starry Eyed Hustler phase ā where your passion is on fire, but your systems are, well, nonexistent.
If you're in this phase right now, you might be experiencing:
- The Canva obsession
- The endless tweaks to your launch plan
- The late-night Google rabbit holes about ābest email funnelsā
Iāve been there too... And while that excitement is real, it can also keep you spinning if youāre not careful. So in todayās episode, Iām helping you shift from scattered doing to sustainable leadingāwithout losing your creativity or joy in the process.
Hereās what weāll explore:
š The surprising leadership lesson I learned from a 75-day health challenge with my husband
š§ What āshiny object syndromeā really reveals about your leadership fears
š¦ How setting boundaries (just like Trader Joe's does with limited options!) actually creates more freedom and creativity in your zone of genius
šæļø Why "squirrel brain" might feel thrilling at first but ultimately prevents you from creating lasting impact
Whether you're currently in the Starry Eyed Hustler phase or have moved beyond it, this conversation will help you reconcile your fear of āgetting it wrongā with the deeper calling to lead ethically and intentionally.
The truth is, sustainable success doesnāt come from constant pivotingāit comes from creating frameworks that allow your creativity to flourish in focused ways.
š„ Letās make sure your creativity fuels your mission, not your burnout š„
š Want help creating systems that actually support your zone of genius? Book a 1:1 call with me to identify your specific needle movers and create a positive ripple effect in your business. Iād love to walk alongside you.
