As people juggling many different hats, we are no strangers to hard work and operating in a very goal-oriented manner. Between our 9 to 5 jobs, our side hustles and our families, we can quickly find ourselves overwhelmed as we try to keep up with the demands of our everyday lives. We live for checking off item after item on our to-do lists and put this pressure on ourselves to excel in all that we do. We are often operating out of this masculine energy and forget about the balance and flow that feminine energy brings to our lives.



Today I am speaking with fellow side-hustler, Faith Burtamekh, about rediscovering our feminine energy and approaching our lives and businesses with a slower-paced flow. Faith is a teacher turned consultant and also a business coach who loves helping stressed out, overworked, but ambitious women find routines and implement systems that give them back the joy in their day-to-day life and in their business. If you find that you are feeling burned out and struggling to find balance in your life, you will not want to miss this episode!



Episode Highlights


Examples of being in masculine energy vs in feminine energy [5:12]
Leaning into your feminine energy for clarity around your goals, intentions and priorities [9:09]
Maintaining focus and moving the needle forward [15:35]
Three important routines to establish to cultivate success in your day-to-day [20:22]
