Let’s get real.
Not “slap a Canva quote over your chaos” real—but I-ended-up-in-the-hospital-from-burnout real.
Back in 2016, I thought I was having a stroke.
My arms went numb. I couldn’t breathe. My face sagged. No one around me seemed concerned, and I was spiraling.
Turns out? It wasn’t a stroke. It was a full-blown panic attack—the kind that shakes you to your core.
And as scary as it was, it also cracked something open. Because what happened next completely changed my business… and my life.
The Real Reason You’re Exhausted (and Underpaid)
At the time, my income was a rollercoaster. My calendar looked full, but my bank account said otherwise.
I was terrified to slow down in case it all fell apart.
The truth? I was performing success.
- Saying yes to everything.
- Over-delivering to prove I was worth hiring.
- Working 24/7 because I thought that’s what “successful” people did.
Sound familiar?
It wasn’t until I hit rock bottom that I learned how to build a business that didn’t leave me burnt out, anxious, and in a puddle of self-doubt.
You Might Already Be Doing Enough (Just the Wrong Way)

You might already be doing more than enough.
But you’re doing it in a way that’s working against your nervous system.
You’ve probably been taught:
- Burnout is part of the deal.
- Exhaustion means you’re doing enough.
- Rest is a reward, not a right.
But what if that belief is what’s holding you back?
