In this episode, Chynell explores the pressure to grow that high-achieving TPT sellers experience as they navigate their business success.

Often, we celebrate the hustle, the grind, and endless growth, but what about when your business has "enough"? What do you do when you've hit your financial goals but feel burnt out, exhausted, and unable to enjoy the fruits of your labor? Chynell shares a compelling story of one of her clients who built a highly successful TPT business, pulling in over $30,000 per month, yet grappled with her current season of business.

In this episode, you'll learn about:

• The concept of different "seasons" in your business: planting, growing, harvesting, and recognizing your "enough" season.
• The psychological and emotional struggles of recognizing when you are in a harvest season.
• How to set your "enough" threshold and the importance of giving yourself permission to step back, rest, and embrace a season where you enjoy what you've built.
• Real-world examples of how TPT sellers can adjust their mindsets and business strategies to avoid unnecessary burnout.
• Strategies for maintaining your business's success without constantly feeling the need to push for more.

Whether you're in a growth season on TeachersPayTeachers or realizing you're in your "enough" season, this episode offers insights into achieving balance and peace while still maintaining and nurturing a successful education business.

Key Takeaways:

• Success isn't just about continuous growth—it's also about knowing when to rest and nurture what you've already built.
• Establishing a financial "floor" helps in identifying when it’s okay to take your foot off the pedal.
• Rest and recovery are essential components of long-term success and creativity.
• Personalized strategies can allow high achievers to recognize and live comfortably in their "enough" season without the fear of losing momentum.
