This is your permission slip to slow the hell down without losing your power.
If your brain has recently slammed on the brakes while your business is still trying to race ahead at full noise… you are not broken. You’re not failing. You’re not “less than.” You’re a woman navigating a physiological season that most business advice completely ignores.
In Episode 84, we dismantle the guilt, the shame, and the “just push harder” conditioning that so many of us carry, especially in seasons like perimenopause, pregnancy, early motherhood, or just… life being a
lot.It’s biology.
It’s capacity shifting.
And you get to lead differently here.
What We Get Into:
✔ The truth about low-capacity seasons (and why you can’t out-hustle hormones)
✔ Why your capacity ≠ your capability
✔ How to protect your confidence when your brain feels like mashed potatoes
✔ The four energy states every woman entrepreneur cycles through
✔ How to schedule your work, leadership, and life around your physiology
✔ Why rest is not a luxury it’s a leadership skill
✔ The simple mindset shift that stops your business from entering survival mode
✔ How lowering expectations (yes, really!) can actually boost performance across your whole business
If you’re brilliant but running on fumes…
If you’re second-guessing your output…
If you’re grieving the version of yourself who used to “do more”…
This episode will soothe your nervous system and sharpen your leadership all at once.
Key Takeaway
You cannot outwork biology, but you can lead yourself and your business with intention in first gear, fifth gear, and everything in between.
Slowing down isn't a weakness.
It’s wisdom hard-earned through years of juggling business, motherhood, partnership, home life, and everything else you've carried.
