About this listen
We’re back this week with an anonymous submission, and as you all know, there’s not an actual answer, but there are a lot of thoughts and questions…
“So, I started my service-based business 3 years ago, and it's objectively successful. Revenue is up, clients love us, and from the outside, it looks like I made it, but I'm exhausted, anxious all the time, and weirdly resentful of the business I worked so hard to build.
I'm working more hours than ever, I can't shut my brain off, and I feel guilty when I'm not working. I've tried hiring help, but I still feel like everything depends on me. Part of me wants to scale bigger, part of me wants to burn it down, and another part of me feels ungrateful for even thinking that way. What am I actually supposed to do here?”
First, we dive into the emotional aspects of this question with Callie’s thoughts and a recent conversation with her son while watching Pole to Pole. Then, Amanda comes in with the practical side, with shared experience and one question to ask yourself.
Key Takeaways:
- Your choices have gotten you to where you are
- Have you paused to look around where you are and whether it’s still where you want to go?
- There are more options, but are they too uncomfortable to consider?
Have you ever found yourself in this situation? What thoughts went through your mind?
