#16 Midyear Momentum - When life knocks you off track
This episode isn’t about ticking off goals or planning the perfect financial quarter. It’s about what happens when real life interrupts your best intentions—when grief, pressure, and exhaustion pull you off course.
This week, I share openly about the loss in our family, the weight of running a business through hard seasons, and how co-parenting challenges and emotional overwhelm can derail even the strongest momentum. But more importantly—I talk about how we come back.
You won’t find downloads or step-by-step planning tips here. Just grounded reflection, quiet encouragement, and a few gentle questions to help you reconnect with yourself and your numbers—even if things still feel foggy. Whether you’re thriving, surviving, or somewhere in between—this episode is for you.
Inside this episode: The myth of constant momentum in business Giving yourself grace after grief, burnout, or life disruption How to gently check in with your finances without pressure What rebuilding can really look like (it’s not instant—and that’s okay) A reminder that your numbers are just information—not judgment
💬 Reflective prompts to ask yourself:
• Where am I right now—emotionally, financially, practically?
• What still matters to me this year, and what no longer does?
• What small financial action could help me feel more steady this week?
