    Pt 2 : My 10 Launch Rituals That Create 5 Figure Launches (That Most People Miss)

    If you're mid-launch and wondering why it feels so hard... chances are it's not your content or your offer. It's whether the version of you showing up to sell it is regulated, energised, and actually protected enough to hold conviction all the way through. In part two of this series, Regan shares the final five of her 10 launch rituals... the ones that happen during the launch itself, and the ones most people skip entirely. From running a pleasure project on the side to protecting your evenings with a literal brick, these are the practices that keep a launch feeling good from open to close. If you haven't listened to part one yet, head back there first for rituals one through five.

    The Pep Talk to Reignite Your Momentum

    If you've been scrolling and watching everyone else's "overnight success" while wondering why it's not happening for you ... this episode is the pep talk you need. You'll feel lighter, excited for what's to come and reignite your momentum just from tuning in to this Pleaurepreneur frequency....I mean episode.  Regan unpacks why comparing yourself to other people's highlight reels sends your nervous system into a stress response, and why that stress response has you inventing problems in your business that don't actually exist. She shares deeply personal stories of the impact she had no idea she was making, and introduces the "adjacent principle," the idea that your effort often creates results through avenues you never expected or planned for. This episode is an invitation to stop focusing on what feels broken, and start tuning into the evidence of what's already working in your favour.

    Make the Boring Bits of Business Less Boring: Pleasure, Novelty & Micro-Rewards

    There are bits of your business that you keep avoiding. The invoices stacking up. The content ideas that never get made. The email sequence that follows you around your to-do list like an annoying little passenger. In this episode, Regan dives into why we avoid the "boring bits" of business, and why that avoidance quietly costs us our income, our clients, and our momentum. She draws a surprising parallel from her past work as a pleasure coach for mums (responsive vs. spontaneous desire) to explain why some tasks will never spark you the way others do, and what to actually do about it. Spoiler: it's not about trying harder or becoming more disciplined. This episode hands you three simple, practical ways to make the boring stuff feel genuinely good to do, so you stop avoiding the things that actually move the needle.

    The Real Reason You're Not Investing in Support (and It's Not the Money)

    What if the same thing that's stopping you from hiring support is the exact same thing stopping you from your next level of success? In this episode, Regan unpacks a conversation she had on a consult call with a woman who'd been in business for almost a decade but still didn't believe she'd reached a "base level" to invest in support. Sound familiar? Regan breaks down why this isn't a money problem or a strategy problem... it's an identity problem. The same stories that keep you from investing in support are the ones keeping you stuck, playing small, and disconnected from the business you actually want. This episode will have you looking at your own decision-making in a whole new way, and finding the pleasure on the other side of it.

    Stop Overgiving & Undercharging. Start Leading.

    In this episode, Regan dives into something that comes up again and again with her clients: overgiving and undercharging. She explores why this pattern is so common for women (hint: it starts long before business), why it's not the noble move it feels like, and exactly what it's costing you and your clients.

    Pleasure Is the Missing Link to Discipline and Consistency

    What if the secret to staying consistent in your business wasn't more willpower... but more pleasure? Regan returns to the Pleasurepreneur Podcast after an intentional break (with zero guilt about it!) to have an honest conversation about one of the most misunderstood dynamics in business: discipline and consistency. She's noticed a lot of noise online pushing the idea that to be disciplined, you have to sacrifice enjoyment. That it has to feel hard. That pleasure is somehow the lazy option. And she's here to lovingly call that out. In this episode, Regan explores why pleasure isn't the opposite of discipline... it's actually what makes discipline sustainable. She walks through James Clear's four laws of behaviour change from Atomic Habits and shows exactly how pleasure is woven through every single one, and how you can use them to build habits in your business that your brain actually wants to repeat. This one is equal parts relief and activation. Whether you've been white-knuckling your way through your to-do list or wondering why your consistency keeps slipping, this episode is for you.

    If It Feels Scary, It Might Be Your Next Up-Level : The Psychology Behind Fear & Expansion

    Big decisions in business often come with fear. Not because you’re not ready. Not because you “don’t believe in yourself enough.” But because your brain is wired to protect what you already have. In this episode of The Pleasurepreneur Podcast, Regan unpacks what’s happening in your nervous system when you’re standing at an edge. The investment, the pivot, the bold offer, the mastermind, the next-level move that you want… and also feel scared to choose. You’ll learn about loss aversion, the very human mechanism that makes potential loss feel heavier than potential gain, and how it shows up for you as both the buyer and the seller. This is not an episode about bypassing fear or manipulating yourself into a yes. It’s about making grounded, informed decisions with self-trust, even when fear is present. Timestamps 01:00 Why big decisions feel scary and how to meet them with calm 05:00 What your brain is scanning for when risk is present 09:00 Regan’s long-distance love story and choosing desire with uncertainty 10:00 The Pleasurepreneur Mastermind example and the fear of “losing money” 11:00 How loss aversion shows up when you’re selling and fear rejection 13:00 The hidden cost of staying where you are 15:00 Practical tools to make grounded decisions without overriding fear What You’ll Learn Why fear is normal when you’re making aligned next-level decisionsWhat loss aversion is and why it impacts both buying and sellingHow fear can masquerade as logic, readiness, or “maybe next round”The cost of staying in familiar territory and why your brain ignores itA grounded decision process that includes your brain and your body Links + Resources Mentioned Pleasurepreneur Mastermind: Join the waitlist for early access, limited spots, and exclusive bonuses. https://reganfigg.com/mastermind Work With Regan 1:1 Apply for 1:1 Coaching: https://reganfigg.com/coachingFollow Regan Instagram: https://instagram.com/regan_figgSupport the show
