In this empowering episode, host Thando Mazibuko sits down with Ilana Morris Strategic Operations Expert, Automation Enthusiast, and former educator turned Online Business Manager to redefine what success looks like when your body says no to hustle.

Diagnosed with a rare cancer at 25 while teaching in The Bronx, Ilana’s life was forever changed. That crisis became her catalyst leading her from over a decade in education operations to launching her own business, built on systems, sustainability, and self-care.

She now helps entrepreneurs untangle chaos, modernize their workflows, and build businesses that run smoothly without sacrificing their health or sanity.

In this conversation, you’ll learn:

🔹 How Ilana turned personal crisis into operational clarity.

🔹 Why she treats automation as self-care and how it can be for you too.

🔹 One small step to stop drowning in tools like Notion, ClickUp, and Zapier.

🔹 The #1 operational mistake solopreneurs make (and how to fix it).

🔹 And how to use data simply, even if you’re not an analyst.

🎧 Whether you're a solopreneur feeling overwhelmed, navigating health challenges, or just ready to design a business that fits your life this episode is your invitation to slow down, streamline, and reclaim your energy.
