Entrepreneurs are burning out at record speed and it’s not because they’re missing strategy. It’s because they’re carrying the hidden habit of people-pleasing disguised as hustle.

In this episode of Journey to Self: Power Beyond People Pleasing, I share how overwork sneaks in as a survival pattern, why exhaustion is the ultimate block to growth, and how each People-Pleaser Persona hustles themselves into depletion.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything and still not moving forward, this conversation will help you pause, reset, and reclaim your energy. Growth doesn’t come from working harder, it comes from working aligned.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
