Five Ways to Feel Better in Your Business ASAP (Close-Up with Lacey)

In this solo episode, I dive into the details behind what it takes to feel truly GOOD in your business. So much of what you’ve heard so far this season with Angie has been about how different she perceives her business now (and herself as a business owner) compared to when we first started working together. There are so many factors that played into this, so you’ll hear me dive into the five most important ones I want you to take away from this so you can do a self-check for that same type of joy, spaciousness, and success in your own business!   In this episode, you’ll hear: What keeps you in business and allows you to make more money over time Why the things happening outside of your business matter more than you think  The role that systems play in creating the freedom you want Boundaries created from burnout vs. creating boundaries that feel good Support that feels like a sigh of relief and how to implement and maintain that The power of staying in alignment with your values and what this looks like in practice    Episode Links Join my Facebook group Learn more about Angie on her website

Letting Go of the “Hard Worker” Identity (Close-Up with Lacey)

In this solo episode, we discuss how to unwind that “hard worker” identity that so many of us high-achievers have - especially because we see it as the thing that has gotten us the results we wanted. This is so much of what Angie has been processing thus far in our sessions and it’s so valuable for us to experience alongside her.
