Running a business online should be simple. But somewhere along the way, it turned into a full-time performance. Post every day. Chase engagement. Build a personal brand empire before you’re allowed to make a sale. That’s not freedom. That’s burnout. I created Mindset, Money and Marketing to give business owners like you a different way. A simpler way. This podcast is for solopreneurs who want a business that actually works. One that wins clients, makes money, and gives you your time back. No ads. No viral dances. No pressure to be everywhere, all the time. Just honest insights, smart strategy, and a bit of straight talk about what actually moves the needle. If you’re done performing and ready to build something real, you’re in the right place.

In this episode, I’m digging into one of the toughest lessons I’ve learned in business: the high cost of people-pleasing.
It’s something we all think we can avoid – until we’re knee-deep in projects, saying “yes” to every request, and feeling like our work isn’t even ours anymore.
I’ve been there. Burned out.
Frustrated.
Wondering why the business I built for freedom started to feel like a trap.
In this conversation, I get brutally honest about how people-pleasing sneaks in and, before you know it, robs you of your energy, your time, and, frankly, your confidence. I'll take you through the moments I said “yes” when I knew I should have said “no” – and the exact cost of those decisions.
But this episode isn’t just my horror stories.
I’m sharing what I’ve learned about setting boundaries, the importance of clarity, and why respecting your own expertise is the only way to build something sustainable. Because here’s the thing: clients don’t hire you just to make them happy; they want results – and that only comes when you have the courage to stand firm.
This episode is for you if you’ve ever felt:
- Trapped by client demands
- Unsure of where to draw the line
- Tired of putting everyone else first
If you’re ready to protect your time, reclaim your work, and create something that works for you, don’t miss this episode.
It’s about delivering real value, on your terms, and building a business that truly serves you – without sacrificing your sanity.
