292: The Messy Middle: 4 Months Off, 4 Months On & What I’m Learning About Sustainable Growth
In this special heart-to-heart episode of Busy to Boss, I’m sharing the story behind the season that changed everything. After stepping away from my business for four months, I returned with more clarity than I expected, and more questions, too. This is a real-time glimpse into what it looks like to rebuild your business after having to take a step back, slow down to speed up, and start anchoring sustainable growth from the inside out. We’ll talk about the messy middle that so many entrepreneurs find themselves in - that space between “I can’t do it like this anymore” and “I’m not sure what’s next.” You’ll hear how I moved through mental health recovery, navigated business and motherhood, and redefined my version of success with systems that support my actual life, not just my to-do list. Whether you’re feeling off-track, emotionally overloaded, or simply craving more stability and clarity in your business, this episode is for you. We’re talking business clarity after a break, intuitive business growth, entrepreneurship and chronic capacity shifts, the real cost of building without systems, and the quiet power of making space for what’s next. ✨ This is for you if you’re exploring what sustainable success really looks like - through systems, slow momentum, and the courage to choose differently. If today’s episode resonated, I’d love to know. DM me over on Instagram and let me know what part landed or simply share this episode with a friend who’s in their own messy middle.
