What if the real path to a thriving business isn't about doing more, but about doing less with more intention?

In this first episode of the year, I'm reflecting on what's shifted since moving to France and taking an unexpected two-month break from the podcast. What's become clear is this: I'm committed to a business that feeds my soul as much as it serves the world. A slower, more sacred way. And I want to invite you into this with me.

This isn't about checking out or playing small. It's about building a business that's deeply authentic, sustainably creative, and grounded in presence, not pressure.

In this episode, I share:

1. Why slow business is about doing what matters from a grounded place
2. Five tangible benefits of leading a slow business (and how to know which one you need most right now)
3. What sustainable creativity actually looks like when you stop forcing it
4. How I'm dismantling lifelong patterns of hyper-responsibility and over-functioning
5. Why feeling calm and steady in your body matters more than any strategy or system
6. The difference between a business that runs your life and one that serves it

If you're ready to create from overflow, lead with more presence, and build a business that feels like an extension of your spiritual practice, this episode offers a map toward a business that feels like home, not another obligation.

If this conversation resonates, I'd love to invite you to a live workshop, “How to Create a Simple, Sacred, Self-Led Business.”

This is for sensitive, spiritually-attuned women (coaches, therapists, healers, service providers) who want their business to feel enjoyable, grounded, and true.
