What Happens When You Fall Out of Love With Your Business

Send us a text

We rarely talk about those moments when the business you've built with passion suddenly feels heavy and disconnected. That's exactly where I found myself recently - not quite burnt out, but definitely feeling a sense of "meh" that I couldn't shake.

Have you ever built something that once lit you up, only to hit a stretch where you feel completely numb to it? In this raw and unplanned episode, I'm sharing my current struggle with feeling disconnected from my coaching business.

After returning from vacation, I've been questioning everything - my approach, my content, and whether I want to continue doing things the way I've been doing them.

For me, the realization was that I'd drifted from alignment. Despite teaching others to build businesses without constant hustling, I found myself resorting to Instagram DMs and sales calls during a slow period - the exact tactics I'd moved away from.

But here's what I'm discovering: sometimes we don't need a dramatic pivot or to push through. Sometimes, what we need most is to slow down enough to soften and reconnect with what matters.

If you're feeling lost in your business right now, I want to remind you that you're not broken or failing - you're evolving. And evolution requires stillness before strategy. Maybe the business you truly want is still waiting to be built, and maybe today isn't the day to build it.

Let's make it okay to talk about these moments of disconnection too. They're not just normal; they're necessary for growth.

Reach out to me at [email protected] if this resonated with you. I'd love to hear your story of reconnection.
