Description

If you’ve ever sat there thinking, “but if I actually rest, how the hell am I going to make money?” - then this episode is for you.

I’m back after a longer break than planned and today I’m chatting about what happened when I actually let myself rest this summer. No surprise that it felt good AND it brought up all kinds of wobbles about worth, productivity, and whether I was doing enough.

Inside this episode we get into:

  • Why slowing down makes us feel so bloody uncomfortable.
  • The old hustle–crash–repeat cycle I realised I was still caught in (ugh).
  • How to build your business around the energy you actually have, not the mythical “one day” version of you.

And because I know so many of you are in this too I want you to know that Bold Money is open right now. It’s my six-month group where we go deep on this stuff: building those £5k+ months without running on fumes or pretending you’re someone you’re not. Early bird’s on, you can find all the info here.

So if you’re wobbling post-summer, feeling guilty for not being “productive enough,” or just fancy hearing me admit that my favourite way to rest involves crisps and terrible American first responder TV dramas… hit play!
