About this episode

You Don’t Need More Rest—You Need a Different Operating System


You’ve stepped back.

You’ve taken breaks.

You’ve tried resting more…

But the moment you return, the pressure comes right back.

If you’ve ever felt like the only way to breathe is to leave your business—you’re not alone.

And you’re not broken.

You don’t need more rest.

You need a better system.

In this episode, we’re talking about why burnout is a structural problem—not just a personal one—and how to shift the way your business uses your energy.

Inside This Episode

  • What most burnout recovery plans overlook entirely
  • Why time off won’t fix a business that’s still built to run on you
  • The structural shift that frees you to lead from strength—not survival

Next Steps:

Ready to build a business that’s not only profitable—but also sustainable and scalable without everything depending on you?
