In Episode 156 of the Best Coach Ever podcast, we’re keeping it realer than real about showing up in your business when life is straight-up lifing. Whether you're grieving, burnt out, spiraling, or just surviving a season that’s got you clinging to your last nerve, this episode is your lifeline. Because guess what? You don’t have to pretend everything’s fine—or run yourself into the ground—to keep things moving.

We’re talking about what it actually looks like to run a high-touch, visibility-heavy business when your energy is in the trash. From rethinking what “consistency” really means to giving you practical ways to tread water without ghosting your audience, this is your official permission slip to lower the damn bar—and still be a badass business owner. Think of it like the business version of a 20-minute walk: maybe it’s not your fastest sprint, but babe, it still counts.

If you’re caught between disappearing and delivering, craving a nap but needing to post, this episode is your no-BS guide to staying visible without losing your mind. Because “good enough” is still progress—and sometimes, that’s more than enough.
