211. Holly Haynes on Creating Your Life Beyond the Hustle

Finding clarity around what you want is essential, because it guides every decision in your work and in your life. When you design your business or career to fit you, it opens the door to sustainable success and gives you the freedom to create your life around what matters most.

In this episode, you’ll hear from Holly Haynes, host of the Crush the Rush podcast. Holly shares her story of leaving her corporate job, starting her own business, and committing to creating the quality of life she wanted. Her journey is a real-life example of what life mastery is all about–not having everything perfectly aligned or knowing every step, but embracing the realness, authenticity, and messiness of leaning in to create your life according to your values.

Even if you aren’t a business owner, you most likely understand the pressure to “do all of the things” in order to succeed. Too many of us end up spread thin and exhausted when we follow that path. Holly Haynes’ Anti-Social School and her approach to helping clients grow in a way that feels authentic to them—and the life they want to create—is the key to sustainable success.

Allowing yourself to be curious about what lights you up–what you love to do and what would work for you–is the real secret to business growth without burnout. However, the paramount principle is that in order to get curious, you must allow yourself the space and rest you need to access your greatest creativity. Our instinct is often to push harder and do more when we want to make a change in our business or life, but that doesn’t lead to the sustainable success and balance we want to create in our lives. Today, we’ll talk about how you can challenge yourself to reclaim the time, energy, and space that you want.

You can have the quality of life you desire, so give yourself permission and trust yourself to create it. The gifts and abilities you have matter, and when you allow them the space to grow, they will shine. Let’s get started!

What you’ll learn:

• Why the greatest reward in business often isn’t financial, but the freedom to be with the people you love and live on your terms
• How to grow your business without using marketing tactics that don’t align with your values
• Why you’re not alone when you face challenges on the path to sustainable success
• How taking time off can benefit your business and help you create your life the way you want
• How to make your business better for clients without sacrificing your life or wellbeing
