Are you feeling pressured to have everything figured out in your business or personal life? In this episode, I dive into the raw, messy journey of building an online health and fitness business during the chaotic years of 2020 and 2021 — and the hard lessons I learned along the way.

I share the real highs and lows of trusting mentors, chasing the "cool kids club" vibe, and losing myself in the process. This is a story I haven’t fully shared until now, and let me tell you, it’s a cocktail of ambition, impulsive decisions, and some wild realizations.

Join me as I take you through the swamp of big dreams and promises from online mentorships that left me questioning my own path. From the temptation of fast success to those awkward moments that just make you go, "Wait, what am I really doing here?"

What You’ll Hear in this Episode:

• How I found myself entangled in an identity crisis while building an online business
• The allure—and cost—of high-ticket mentorships that promise big results
• The real impact of chasing validation and trying to join the “cool kids club” in business
• How the cycle of certifications and courses left me wondering if any of it was worth it
• The hidden toll mentorship took on my health, confidence, and finances
• When I realized I was burned out - and another course or “being in the energy” would fix it
• How reconnecting with my dad ended up being a major part of my journey

This episode is a behind-the-scenes look at my journey, lessons on boundaries, and a reminder that it's okay to be a work in progress. Grab a coffee, a wine, or whatever fuels you, and let’s get into it!
