Episode 20: Business Success: 2 Things That Matter More Than Strategy

Season #1

If you’re still looking for the perfect strategy, the magic formula, or someone to guarantee your success... this episode is your loving (and necessary) wake-up call.

In this raw conversation, I’m sharing the two things that have actually built my business—through launches, grief, postpartum, and every single season in between. And spoiler alert: it’s not strategy. It’s trusting myself without evidence… and moving with full conviction.

Inside, I’m getting real about:

✨ Why “needing proof” is keeping you playing small
✨ How to build a business that moves no matter what’s happening in life
✨ The difference between confidence and conviction (and why one is magnetic)
✨ What burnout really is (it’s not what you think)
✨ The exact energy that makes clients say YES
✨ Why your next level isn’t about doing more, it’s about being all in

This episode is for the woman who’s done playing safe and ready to go all in on her vision—before the world claps for her. Because the truth? That’s when it all starts to move.
