  • Why honoring your energy patterns leads to more sustainable productivity

Perfect for: Unmotivated entrepreneurs, overwhelmed business owners, and anyone who's ever wondered "how do I get my motivation back?"

Episode Highlights: "Lack of motivation is often your body's way of saying 'I need something different right now.'"

"Motivation is actually a feeling that comes and goes, just like happiness or excitement. Instead of waiting to feel motivated, focus on your commitment to your goals."
