In this no-holds-barred episode, I’m sharing the truth behind the sparkle — because no matter how glossy your business looks on the outside, we all have days where we feel like quitting. I open up about the reality of running pop-up shops (spoiler, it can be extremely tiring), moments of burnout, and the behind-the-scenes of QueenMee Accessories — and most importantly, how I’ve built resilience to keep going when things feel hard.

Whether you’re feeling stuck, drained, or just in need of a pick-me-up, this episode is here to help you find your spark again. I’m giving you four powerful ways to stay resilient and keep going, even when things may overwhelming or too hard.

In This Episode, You'll Learn:

• Why even the most passionate business owners feel like quitting sometimes — and what to do when it hits.
• The four resilience-boosting habits that keep me going through the toughest times:
  1. Crystallising Your "Why" – and how it can pull you through anything.
  2. Believing Your Success is Inevitable – and daily mindset shifts to support that. See Episode 11 for more work on this.
  3. Being Radically Kind to Yourself – mirror work, self-talk, and sugary rewards 🍰
  4. Taking a Break (without guilt) – and how rest helped me see new possibilities.

✨ Your Action Step:

Craft your "why" into a short, powerful phrase — one you can repeat daily to anchor your mindset.
