Episode Summary:
Welcome back! In this episode, Erin Bradley and I dig into what it really means to keep your light ignited as an entrepreneur. We talk about burnout, the feast-or-famine cycle, and how I learned the hard way that success isn’t just about grinding harder—it’s about aligning your passion with your purpose.
We also get into why systems and scaling are key to maintaining momentum, and how boredom might be your signal to evolve or delegate. Plus, the infamous “7-year itch” and what it means for your business journey.
Key Highlights:
1. The Light Within:
The struggle with burnout and limiting beliefs, and why keeping that internal spark alive is crucial to attracting opportunities instead of chasing them.
2. Feast or Famine Rollercoaster:
We talk about the common cycles in industries like mortgage and real estate, and why having systems in place helps you push through even when your motivation dips.
3. Boredom as a Signal:
Boredom isn’t just about disliking your work — it can mean you’re ready to delegate or pivot. I reflect on how important it is to keep evolving.
4. The 7-Year Itch:
We discuss how roughly every seven years, entrepreneurs face a crossroads where passion fades, and how recognizing this can help you make smarter decisions for your business and wellbeing.
Final ThoughtBurnout is real, but so is the power to reignite your fire. Keep your light on, embrace change, and build a business and life that excite you every day.
