Running a Business as a Mom When You’ve Hit Capacity with Candice Catoire

Therapist and coach Candice Catoire joins me to talk about burnout, capacity, and why so many business owners feel stuck even when they love their work.

We get into what burnout actually looks like in business (and why it’s often mistaken for laziness or lack of discipline), how anxiety and burnout overlap, and the small, overlooked factors that quietly drain your energy. We also talk about why rigid routines don’t work for a lot of business owners, especially moms, and how thinking in rhythms instead can make your business feel doable again.

• Burnout vs anxiety vs depression and why the distinction matters
