Episode 4 of the Spring Refresh Series

You already know when it’s time to make a change. But what if the way you’re deciding is the real problem?

In this episode of The Ramble Refinery, I’m joined by my client and friend Rebecca Vigelius, a former VP turned copywriter turned certified neurosomatic intelligence practitioner and stress coach. We dive into the untold truth behind her bold business pivot—one that was less about courage and more about capacity.

This isn’t just another “follow your passion” rebrand story. It’s a grounded, inside-out conversation about how stress—especially the kind we don’t realize we’re carrying—can hijack our clarity, our creativity, and our momentum.

We talk about:

Why Rebecca actually left her copywriting agency (hint: it wasn’t just burnout)
How a tech disaster forced her hand—and revealed her next-level direction
The sneaky ways stress shows up in decision-making (even when you “feel fine”)
What capacity really means—and how to create more of it without blowing up your life
Why emotional regulation is the real secret weapon behind calm, confident evolution

We also unpack what it means to grow from clarity—not pressure—and how to make space for better decisions, better messaging, and a better version of your work.

Whether you’re in a pivot, considering a new offer, or just feeling overloaded by ideas—you’ll walk away from this episode feeling seen, validated, and maybe even a little unbothered.

Mentioned in this episode:

Rebecca’s free tool: The Unbothered Entrepreneur Blueprint
My no-social-media moment (and why it gave me mental clarity I didn’t know I needed)

P.S. If you’ve been feeling the pull to evolve—this one’s for you. And if you’re trying to make decisions from a place of “I just need this to work,” this convo might just save you from recreating the same problems with a different name.
