What if the challenges you're experiencing right now aren't roadblocks, but signs that expansion is right around the corner? In this episode, I explore why the discomfort you're feeling in your business might actually be the catalyst for your next level of growth.

If you're a creative entrepreneur ready to scale beyond your comfort zone but feeling stuck, this episode will give you the mindset shifts and practical strategies you need to navigate growth—even during tough times.
