Discipline isn’t about hustle or perfection—it’s a form of self-care. It’s believing in where you’re going, even when no one else sees it.

In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on a business moment that broke my heart—one of my most anticipated classes flopped due to a major tech fail (thank you, AWS 😅). After weeks of preparation, thousands of registrations, and a heart-driven message I couldn’t wait to share… hardly anyone could access it.

It was devastating.

But it became a powerful lesson in letting go of control and focusing on what really matters: effort over outcome.

If you’ve ever asked, “Why is this happening?”—this episode is for you.

Because yes, things will go wrong in business. And yes, you’ll still be okay.

[01:00] Why overthinking is really a desire for control (and why that never works)

[03:06] The origin of the class that “flopped” and why it was so personally meaningful

[04:06] Preparing like crazy for a no-pitch, heart-centered live event

[05:08] Tech goes down: the moment everything unraveled (and what I did next)

[06:30] The mindset shift that saved the day: “Everything happens for me”

[09:25] How this experience transformed how I show up—and why I’m still grateful

This episode wasn’t supposed to air.

At the Wealthy & Well-Known Summit, I stepped on stage for an unfiltered Q&A about building a brand when nothing seems to be working. No keynote, no polish—just the truth.

I shared what the last two years have really looked like behind the scenes: missed expectations, pivots, and hard-won lessons in resilience, integrity, and reinvention.

You’ll hear:

• What it means to build in the dark
• The real cost of scaling
• Why consistency matters more than confidence
• How 25 Zoom calls shaped my next business move

If you’ve ever wondered, “Is it supposed to be this hard?”—this one’s for you.

Let’s ride.

[01:44] Why leaning into polarity and being unapologetically bold matters more than ever.

[03:50] An exploration of what it feels like to evolve when your audience can't yet see the full picture.

[05:22] The difficult decision to give up control—and the clarity that followed.

[06:20] How a personal mantra—“If I don’t quit, I can’t lose”—became a lifeline during discouraging seasons.

[08:07] How real conversations with ideal clients led to a powerful, beta-tested business pivot.
