You’ve read the books. You’ve followed the strategies. You’ve checked every box the “experts” told you to. And yet… your business still feels heavier than it should.

If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re doing something wrong (spoiler: you’re not), today’s conversation is going to feel like a warm exhale.

Episode Summary

In this episode of The Cycle Advantage, I sit down with Jillian Dolberry to talk about what it really takes to build a business rooted in alignment, not hustle.

We dig into the messy middle of entrepreneurship: unlearning outdated rules, finding your values, releasing internal pressure, and creating systems that honor both your body and your business. If you’ve been craving permission to grow with peace over pressure, this one is for you.

What You’ll Hear in This Episode

✔️ How to unlearn the “rules of business” you’ve inherited and create ones that actually fit you

✔️ Why pressure isn’t always a good motivator (and what to choose instead)

✔️ How to give yourself permission to move things on your calendar without guilt

✔️ The surprising connection between personal healing and business growth

✔️ Why peace and pleasure may be your most untapped business strategies

Key Takeaways

➡️ Curiosity is powerful. Asking “why am I feeling this way?” can reveal patterns and programming you didn’t know were running the show.

➡️ Peace overrides pressure. Sustainable growth doesn’t come from hustling harder: it comes from aligning your work with your energy.

➡️ Your body always counts. Burnout doesn’t have to scream at you before you pay attention. Honor the signals early.

➡️ Unlearning is as important as learning. What worked for someone else (or your parents in the ’90s) may not work for you now and that’s okay.

➡️ Permission creates power. Moving tasks, slowing down, and working from joy can unlock more magnetism than forcing yourself forward.

Why It Matters

If you’ve been white-knuckling your way through business, telling yourself that hustle = success, this conversation is your reminder: you don’t have to earn success by suffering for it.

Your future self, the one who’s working fewer hours, attracting aligned clients, and enjoying her life is built on different rules. 

This Episode Is For You If…

✨ You’re exhausted from “doing all the right things” but not seeing results

✨ You’re constantly comparing your progress to other entrepreneurs

✨ You want permission to rest, slow down, and still be wildly successful

✨ You crave systems that support you instead of suffocate you

✨ You want to believe in yourself again (and need someone to remind you it’s possible)
