What if 89% of your business results had nothing to do with your strategy—but everything to do with your state?

In this powerful solo episode, I break down why nervous system regulation is the hidden edge most entrepreneurs overlook—and how it’s secretly running your life, your business, and your results. You’ll learn why burnout, indecision, and self-sabotage stem from dysregulation, not laziness… and how to build daily rituals and emergency resets that give you the clarity and power to perform.

If you’re pushing through and still not getting the outcomes you want—this is the episode that shows you why, and more importantly, what to do about it.
