198. How to Find Your Flow Again When You’ve Stopped Prioritizing Yourself

Sep 5

Hey you wild women!

Today we're featuring an episode originally recorded with Shelagh Cummins for her podcast The Road to Seven. Shelagh is a business coach, growth strategist, and speaker. If you’ve ever made a big shift in your life, you’ll be able to relate to this episode. It’s all about finding your flow again and what it looks like to put yourself first.

Building a business can quickly become your identity. You invest so much that switching directions can feel downright scary. The reality is this: As much as we think we get judged for switching gears, no one is thinking about us—and taking a break is often necessary.
