Show Notes


Publishing this podcast on a Sunday perfectly captures the challenge: As entrepreneurs, we work a lot! Entrepreneurial exhaustion is real and sometimes it's actually harder to rest as a creative business owner because there is always something to do. In this episode, I share how my walks transformed from restoration time into mobile strategy sessions with AI, and why I had to learn the hard way that creativity without rest leads to creative bankruptcy.


What You'll Learn



  • The paradox of creative freedom: why entrepreneurial exhaustion is sneakier than corporate burnout because it comes dressed as passion and never has clear boundaries

  • The science of creative breakthroughs: why your best ideas come in the shower (not at your desk) and how constant productivity actually blocks the connections your brain needs to make

  • Practical "permission slips" and strategies for people who can't stop working, including artificial boundaries, no-work zones, and why rest needs to be scheduled like launches
