Why overwhelm keeps you from signing your first client


Reader,

If you’ve ever felt so overwhelmed by all the advice about 'how to grow your business' that you don’t know what to do anymore… I get it.

As a full-time working mom myself, I know how hard it is to juggle family, career, and the dream of building something on the side. When we’re already stretched thin, the noise of conflicting strategies only adds to the exhaustion.

This week on the podcast, I shared:

  • Why overwhelm keeps you stuck (and what it’s really doing to your brain and body)
  • The danger of treating your business like a chore — and how that energy can unintentionally push clients away
  • The true first step most gurus skip: understanding yourself before chasing the latest strategy
  • Practical ways to become more self-aware: meditation, journaling, noticing what your body is telling you (see 'The Body Keeps the Score' by Dr. Bessel van der Kolk for more on this)
  • How tools like Human Design and the MAP Method can help you manage your energy, not just your time

Here’s my biggest encouragement to you this week:
You don’t need to do all the things. You need to know yourself first, so you can choose the right strategies that actually fit your life and give you energy.

If you’d like help figuring this out so you can sign your first client, grow your income streams, and still have time for your family, just reply to this email. I’d love to hear where you’re at and how I can support you.

You don’t have to choose between your career and your family. You can build both.

With love and belief in you,
Sharon
