What if Mondays didn’t have to mean dread, burnout, or bending to someone else’s rules?

In this week’s episode of No More Mondays, I sit down with Alyssa Nolte, CEO of True View and host of Taking Back Monday, to talk about curiosity, choice, and the messy truths of entrepreneurship.

Alyssa shares her path from commission-only startup life to serial entrepreneur, why curiosity can be a superpower, and how authenticity beats shock-value marketing every time. We also tackle the idea that not making a choice is still a choice, and why agency is the key to taking back Mondays for good.

👉 What you’ll learn in this episode:

• Why curiosity often matters more than experience

• How fear shapes our relationship with Mondays (and how to reframe it)

• The difference between authenticity and “shock value” marketing

• Why leaders who try to do everything themselves hold others back

If you’ve ever felt stuck in the Sunday Scaries, this conversation is your reminder that you have more agency than you think, and that even dead houseplants can teach us something about humility.
