About this episode

As a business owner and a mother, I know firsthand how anxiety can show up in both roles. In this solo episode I share three things I do to cope: making self-care non-negotiable through small daily habits, reducing over-stimulation (parenting earplugs included), and embracing uncertainty by letting go of control. I also explain how I work out my needle moving tasks so I prioritise the right things.
