    68. Why Burnout is a Branding Issue

    In this episode, we explore the quieter side of burnout that often has nothing to do with working too much. When your brand and messaging lack clarity, your energy ends up filling the gaps through overgiving, overexplaining, and attracting clients who aren’t truly aligned, slowly draining the joy from work you once loved. We talk about how unclear messaging and leaky boundaries impact your nervous system, and how aligned branding can actually support sustainability, ease, and long term success. This episode is for service providers, creatives, and helpers who care deeply about what they do but are feeling tired, stretched thin, or quietly burned out and ready for work that feels more supportive.

    67. Rest, Boundaries, and the Courage to Live Differently with Ania Ray

    What if success didn’t have to come at the cost of rest, presence, or your nervous system?  In this episode, I sit down with Ania Ray,  founder of Quill & Cup, novelist, and world-schooling mom, to talk about building a life and business that actually feel good to live inside.  We cover gentle leadership, redefining resilience, setting boundaries without guilt, and why rest is a non-negotiable (not a reward). From nomadic entrepreneurship to slow living, this conversation is a reminder that sustainable work starts with honoring your humanity. And if this episode resonates, explore Quill & Cup for a community that blends creativity, wellness, and mindset in a truly supportive way.

    63. Turn Down the World & Turn Up Your Inner Voice with Caroline Feda

    I’m joined by psychic medium and intuitive coach Caroline Feda to explore what intuition actually looks like in real life. We talk about why intuition doesn’t require giving up the things you enjoy, how boundaries play a critical role in staying energetically clear, and why being intuitive doesn’t mean being constantly “on.”  Caroline shares how regulation, moderation, and intentional choice have allowed her to stay deeply connected to her intuition while maintaining a full, normal life. This conversation is especially for anyone who wants to trust themselves more, without pressure, perfection, or extremes.   Inside:  • What being intuitive really looks like day-to-day • The four main ways you can experience intuition  • Why boundaries are essential for intuitive clarity  • Letting go of the idea that intuition requires sacrifice  • How moderation supports, rather than blocks, connection  • Staying grounded and energetically clear in a busy, modern world   A thoughtful reminder that intuition isn’t about changing who you are, it’s about learning how to listen to yourself in a way that’s sustainable, balanced, and aligned with your life.   CONNECT WITH CAROLINE: www.itspeaceinchaos.com Unshakable Waitlist -Myflodesk JOIN THE WAITLIST: UNSHAKABLE Instagram Login • Instagram tik tok - @itspeaceinchaos Want to be a guest? → Schedule an interview Elevate Your Brand & Your Mindset: Subscribe to my email list!
