Episode #13: Alignment Over Hustle – Work Smarter, Not Harder
In this episode, Shamika breaks down one of the biggest myths ambitious women have been sold: that hustle guarantees success.
From staying up until 3 a.m. to burning out in the name of "discipline," she shares her own wake-up call and why alignment—not over-efforting—is the true pathway to peace, prosperity, and purpose.
If you’ve ever felt stuck even though you’re doing “everything right”—updating your LinkedIn, taking on extra work, attending every webinar—but still not getting the opportunities, clients, or clarity you crave…
This episode is your reminder that your energy—not just your effort—is what’s calling the shots.
Shamika walks you through the mindset, spiritual, and energetic shifts that purpose-seeking women must make to stop performing and start receiving.
Whether you're a professional contemplating entrepreneurship or already building something behind the scenes, this is the episode that helps you reset from hustle to alignment—without guilt.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
Powerful Insights + Takeaways:
You don’t attract what you say you want—you attract what you believe you deserve.
The universe doesn’t respond to pressure—it responds to alignment.
You’re not tired because you’re working hard. You’re tired because you’re out of energetic alignment.
