Let’s cut the fluff: this episode is a behind-the-scenes reality check from someone who's done pretending everything’s fine.

From burnout I saw coming (and ignored anyway) to undercharging, red-flag clients, messy backend systems, and the pressure to be perfect online. I’m sharing the real, unfiltered lessons that built up until I had to deal with them.

This isn’t about shame. It’s about clarity. Boundaries. Choosing yourself and your business over people-pleasing and chaos.

Inside:

• The burnout that finally made me pause

• The client decisions I regret (and how I’m doing it differently)

• Systems I avoided that would’ve saved me

• Why showing up online messy hits harder than fake polish

• How saying yes too much was costing me everything

• The moment I stopped DIY-ing and asked for help

If you’ve been white-knuckling your way through “just one more busy season” - this one’s for you.
