We’re getting personal in today’s episode. Picture this: you’re navigating the chaos of running a solo business while juggling the demands of family life during a global pandemic. It’s the perfect recipe for burnout.

In this episode, I’m sharing my journey out of burnout and setting boundaries to rebuild my accounting business. The journey wasn’t always clear, but taking the first step toward transformation was vital. Through the support of a business coach and therapy, I redefined my business model and mindset, which allowed me to revamp my services, streamline operations, and rediscover joy in my work, all while keeping family at the core.

In this episode, Burnout Isn’t the End: My Journey to Finding Joy in Business Again, I cover:

  • The power of confronting fears, redefining boundaries, and overcoming burnout
  • How seeking support from a business coach and starting therapy taught me to raise my rates and prioritize alignment over hustle, ultimately creating a business that aligns with my values and allows me to spend quality time with my family
  • The transformative impact of delegating responsibilities and consulting experts to lighten your load while acknowledging that rest is not a weakness but a vital component of productivity
  • How to recognize burnout as a signal for change and take the first steps toward a balanced life and business
