Manage episode 498425225 series 3001459
Do you lie awake at night, feeling that nagging urge to throw in the towel even though your business is thriving?
Many women entrepreneurs hit their revenue goals, have adoring clients, or finally upgraded their systems. Yet, they still fantasize about walking away for something simpler, like becoming an employee again or living in the Swiss Alps as a dog walker. However, what looks like craziness or ungratefulness on the surface is just a sign of a much-needed internal shift.
In this episode of She Thinks Big, you’ll learn why you feel like shutting your business down even when everything looks perfect on the surface. I’ll teach you why burnout isn’t from your efforts, why success can feel like a trap, and the crucial role of your mindset, self-talk, and support system in sustaining your entrepreneurial journey with renewed energy, power, and purpose.
1:20 - Why you’re not crazy or ungrateful if you want to quit or burn it down
4:24 - Why it’s about your brain, not your business being broken
6:52 - Why mindset is a daily recalibration, not a bubble bath
10:18 - Why you need new self-talk, not a new strategy (with a personal example)
16:24 - Why who you surround yourself with matters more than you think
20:35 - Take five minutes to answer these four questions
