Building a Business While Running on Empty — Here's How to Stop the Fight-or-Flight Spiral

You are trying to build something. Show up for your clients. Make decisions. Create content. Lead. And your body is stuck in a low-grade emergency that never fully turns off. That is not a productivity problem. It is a nervous system stuck in fight-or-flight — and for women building businesses, that state can become so familiar it starts to feel like normal. Stacey Chillemi has lived this from the inside and knows exactly what it costs — your clarity, your energy, your creativity, and the joy you started this for in the first place. In this episode she walks you through the practical nervous system tools that actually calm the system down so you can think clearly, lead from a grounded place, and build something sustainable without burning yourself out in the process. You do not have to grind harder to get there. You have to get regulated first. This episode shows you how. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
