The Counterintuitive Path to Business Growth for Overwhelmed Course Creators

Ready to escape the content treadmill and information overload that's keeping you stuck in your online course business? 🚀

If you're like most course creators, you're probably consuming more business podcasts, audiobooks, and courses than you can actually implement. The constant influx of information might be leaving you overwhelmed, anxious, and ironically, less productive. Today, I'm pulling back the curtain on my own journey with burnout and the radical changes that transformed my business by slowing down first.

In this deeply personal episode, I share how information addiction nearly broke me and the specific practices that helped me reclaim my creativity, focus, and joy. This isn't just about self-care—it's about building a more profitable and sustainable online business by protecting your most valuable asset: your mental clarity.

“Everywhere I go, there I am. The mindset struggles I had when I made no money still show up for me every day. They just have a different tint, a different flavor.” ✨

🔥 In This Episode:

  • Discover why filling every moment with business podcasts and audiobooks might be sabotaging your success
  • Implement the “bucket technique” for meditation that helped me tame the constant voices of overwhelm
  • Recognize the warning signs of information overload before you hit a breaking point
  • Create simple daily practices that increase creativity and business clarity
  • Transform your relationship with “worthiness” to break through income plateaus

Grab your favorite drink, find a quiet spot, and join me for this deeply honest conversation about building a business that supports your life—not consumes it. ☕️

💚 💚 💚
