251 - Are You Playing by Your Rules or Someone Else’s?
Description
In this episode, we’re getting real about the pressure to grow, hustle, and perform according to everyone else’s expectations. Whether it’s social media trends, industry “shoulds,” or well-meaning friends giving unsolicited advice—there’s always noise about what your business should look like.
But here’s the truth: your business should work for you.
Monica shares candid stories—from her own journey, her conversation with entrepreneur Tracy Nicole, to examples from fellow business owners who’ve chosen peace over pressure. You’ll hear why defining success on your own terms isn’t just okay—it’s essential. Because burnout isn’t the badge of honor, and bigger isn’t always better.
This episode is your reminder to build with intention, not just ambition. Let’s talk boundaries, alignment, and what it really means to design a business that supports your life—not swallows it whole.
Listen in and ask yourself:
Are you playing by your rules… or someone else’s?
