What if the business you thought would give you freedom was actually stealing it? In this episode, Angie Shiels, former-café-owner-turned-wellness-entrepreneur, shares the real costs of traditional business, why scaling often means more stress, and how she pivoted into a model that works with her life instead of against it. If you're a mom, a woman past 40, or a business owner ready for a second chapter, this conversation will expand your vision of what's possible.

Instead, it left her burnt out and asking, "Is this really it?" In the lead-up to turning 50, she sold the café and realised it was time to reclaim her health, create financial independence, and design life on her own terms. A chance meeting over coffee introduced her to the world of affiliate marketing - and she's never looked back. She has spent the past six months living in Bali and, thanks to her online business, continues to mentor small business owners, entrepreneurs, and women in corporate careers who feel stuck and exhausted. Angie helps them move beyond burnout into leveraged income, legacy wealth, and a lifestyle of health, freedom, and purpose. Beyond business, Angie is a wife, a proud mum to three adult children, and this year stepped into her favourite role yet - becoming "La La" to her first grandchild.
