About this listen
If you're passionate about your business but it's turning into a 24/7 prison - constantly checking DMs at 10PM, squeezing family around work, or freaking out when life happens - this episode is your permission to build a "bendable" empire. Trish shares behind the scenes of batching content and systems that let her fully show up for her daughter's unexpected labor (and new granddaughter!) without her seven-figure businesses skipping a beat.
No more obsession without boundaries. Trish exposes why loving your work is the sneaky trap that leads to burnout, and how to flip it: Schedule life FIRST, batch extra for emergencies, and simplify to one lead magnet/micro experience/offer/platform. Because if your business can't run when your kid's sick or baby's born - you don't have freedom, you have a new clock-in job.
💡 What You’ll Learn Inside This Episode
- Why passion is a double-edged sword: How obsession leads to no boundaries and constant "just checking" mode
- Trish's "business that bends" mantra: Schedule family first, batch content weeks ahead, and build an "emergency content fund"
- Simplicity scales: Why you only need ONE lead magnet, micro experience, offer, and platform (complexity kills freedom)
- The "tap, tap, send" life: How batching let Trish hit $50k by mid-January while being fully present for daughter’s birth
- Permission to be human: Show up real (hat hair and all) - your audience wants sustainable, not perfect
🔥 Mic-Drop Moments
"The women who reach out to me love what they're doing. They love it so much, and that's actually part of the problem - we get so obsessive because we're passionate and suddenly we never shut off."
"Your business should work around your life, not consume it."
"Simplicity scales. Complex fails."
"If you can't step away when your baby goes into labor, when your child is sick, when life happens - you don't have a business. You have a prison."
