Ending the Burnout Cycle: How to Stop Being a Prisoner in Your Own Business

In today’s episode, I’m breaking down how to stop running a business that runs you. Scaling your business doesn’t magically fix your mindset, it just makes it more expensive. If your business feels all-consuming, stressful, or disconnected from the life you actually want, this episode is your wake-up call.

We’re going beyond surface-level strategy and diving into the mindset, identity, execution, and responsibility roadblocks that quietly keep entrepreneurs stuck, burned out, and chasing instead of leading.

In this episode, we cover:

• The most common mindset traps that keep entrepreneurs stuck.

• Why not defining your version of being “enough” leads to burnout, overworking, and resentment in your business.

• The execution habits that slow growth, including overconsuming content, perfectionism, and constantly switching strategies.

• How your responsiveness blocks sustainable business growth.

• Practical tools to reclaim your time, energy, and autonomy while building a business that actually supports your life.

This episode is a grounded reality check for anyone ready to build a successful business without sacrificing peace, freedom, or fulfillment. Your business should serve your life, not trap you.
