    51 - Consistency (when it feels like things aren't working): and staying visible without burnout

    What do you do when you’re showing up consistently in your business, but it doesn’t feel like it’s working yet? In this episode of pepp talks, I’m sharing an honest reflection on consistency, comparison, and staying visible when the results aren’t obvious. Using my own podcast journey, I talk about the doubts that creep in, the impact of comparing yourself to others, and why consistency often feels hardest before the reward shows up. You’ll hear about: Why consistency is so difficult when there’s no immediate feedbackHow comparison can quietly drain your confidence and energyRe-evaluating your business from an energy perspective, not just a strategy oneTrusting that your impact may already be happening behind the scenesIf you’re feeling discouraged or wondering whether it’s worth continuing to show up, this episode is a gentle reminder that what you’re doing still matters.

    48 - Are You Putting Everyone Else First? Why Self-Employed Mums Must Rebuild Their Relationship With Themselves

    Are you putting everyone else first and leaving yourself until last? In this episode, Sue speaks directly to self-employed mums who feel stretched thin between their business, their family, and everyone else’s expectations. She explores why so many women prioritise relationships with others over their relationship with themselves - and the quiet cost this self-sacrifice has on energy, wellbeing, and joy. Through a personal reflection, this episode looks at guilt, self-care, boundaries, and what it really means to honour your needs without feeling selfish. Sue shares why caring for yourself isn’t about doing less for others, but about creating the energy, presence, and clarity needed to show up fully in both your business and your family life. If you’re a self-employed mum feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or disconnected from yourself, this episode offers a compassionate invitation to rebuild self-trust, reclaim your energy, and create a more sustainable way of working and living - without burnout.
