The Day I Stopped Taking Pride in Being Busy

For years, I wore “busy” like a badge of honor. Clients across continents. A calendar packed tighter than my inbox. I thought this was what success looked like.

Until my son asked if I was done working. I paused. I didn’t know how to answer.

That moment changed everything.

I stopped trying to be impressive and started designing something that felt good to run. One offer. One clear way of working. Fewer clients. More breathing room.

This isn’t about scaling fast. It’s about building well.

Here’s where I share what that actually looks like in practice.
