Podcast Ep 363 - The $10K Month & the Mind Games That Followed
Description
In this episode of the Flourish Academy podcast, Heather Lahtinen talks with her good friend and Elevate coach, Michelle Crandall, about a surprising truth—what happens after you finally hit a big business goal.
Michelle recently had her biggest month ever in her photography business, nearly hitting $10,000. But instead of celebrating, her brain spiraled with doubt, fear, and guilt. Together, Heather and Michelle unpack the emotional rollercoaster of achieving success and why it’s so hard to feel happy even when you’re winning. If you've ever hit a milestone and still felt like it's not enough, this episode is for you.
