Send us a text In this deeply honest and necessary conversation, I’m joined by former lawyer turned sustainable fashion founder and brand strategist Katey Harris to unpack what’s really happening beneath the surface for small business owners right now. We dive into: - Why small businesses are burning out at record levels - The real impact of comparison with big corporations - Why price and convenience are killing local communities - The myth of “hustle = success” - How brand, values, and community connection are actually your biggest competitive advantage - The difference between sustainable vs regenerative business - Why so many founders are exhausted by content creation and AI-driven marketing - And how to redefine success on your own terms—without losing your health, relationships, or identity This episode is for business owners, consultants, creatives, and leaders who are tired of the grind-for-the-sake-of-the-grind and are craving a more human, connected, and sustainable way to build success. If you’ve ever thought: “I didn’t start a business to become a content creator,” “I’m exhausted by the pressure to scale,” or “There has to be another way to do this…” This episode will land.
