You’ve heard it before: just push through. Hustle harder. Do more.
But what if the real reason you're stuck, exhausted, or spinning your wheels in business… has nothing to do with strategy or mindset—and everything to do with your nervous system?
In this episode, I’m joined by the brilliant Masha Kay, a Nervous System and Breathwork Coach who helps high-performing women grow sustainable, profitable businesses without burning out.
We’re diving deep into the science and soul of success—from what chronic stress is really doing to your body, to how to build a business that supports your health instead of draining it.
Whether you’re scaling your business or just trying to stay out of survival mode, this conversation will change the way you think about growth, burnout, and what it actually means to succeed.
In This Episode, We Talk About...
- Why burnout isn’t just a mindset problem (and how your nervous system plays a bigger role than you think)
- The hidden signs of nervous system dysregulation in entrepreneurs
- How to stop overworking and start building from a regulated, resourced place
- The difference between surviving and scaling—and how to move into ease without losing ambition
- Breathwork, trauma-informed tools, and simple practices to support long-term success
