Why Strategy Isn’t Working: And How to Align It With Your Real Energy Design - ep. 188

What if the business you’re building is secretly burning you out, not because you’re unhealed or unmotivated, but because it was never designed for your actual energy?

In this episode, I take you behind the scenes of a chapter in my own journey, one where everything looked successful from the outside… but inside, I was silently drowning.  

We unpack how high-capacity women (yes, even the ones who’ve “done the work”) unconsciously build businesses on survival patterns inherited from corporate conditioning and trauma-fueled beliefs about performance, value, and worth.

Here’s what we dig into:

• The real cost of proving energy—and how it hijacks your income, nervous system, and capacity to receive

• Why your body might be rejecting your “proven” strategy—and what that actually means

• The energetic difference between true alignment and high-functioning burnout

• What it looks like to build a business your system can actually hold

• Two catalytic questions that reveal where you’re still leaving yourself behind

Because if success still costs you your peace, your energy, or your sense of self?

That’s not success, it’s survival with prettier packaging.
