Why your corporate habits are keeping you stuck

We’ve been conditioned to believe that success means filling our schedules, staying busy, and measuring our worth by how many hours we work. But when you bring that mindset into entrepreneurship? It’ll keep you stuck, burnt out, and completely out of alignment.

In this episode, I’m getting real about how my 9-to-5 mentality almost sabotaged my first business. I came from hustle culture, burnout, and busy work… and I brought all of that into entrepreneurship without even realizing it.

We’re talking about:

  • Why the 40-hour work week is a scam (especially for moms)

  • How corporate habits like clocking in/out and filling your day are keeping you stuck

  • The difference between being busy and being effective

  • What it actually looks like to build a business that fits into your life instead of taking it over

This episode is a mindset reset for the mom who’s trying to build something meaningful. Whether you’re short on time or just tired of doing things the way you’ve always been taught.
