Welcome back, Product Bosses! Today, I'm getting real about the challenges of blending life and business—because let's be honest, balance is a myth. As women juggling so many responsibilities, it's easy to feel overwhelmed, especially during high-stress moments. I'm sharing my personal experience with anxiety and panic attacks, including how I've managed them during crises like wildfires, and the tools that help me stay grounded.Instead of trying to do it all, I've learned that small shifts make a big difference. Movement helps ease panic, focusing on one task at a time reduces overwhelm, and having a plan—both for life and business—creates a sense of control. Most importantly, self-compassion and reaching out for support can change everything. You don't have to navigate this alone.If you're feeling stretched too thin, I want you to know—you are doing an amazing job. Remember…sometimes, the best thing you can do is pause, reassess, and focus on what truly matters. Tune in for an honest conversation on resilience, mindset shifts, and practical ways to move forward with confidence.Resources:Think creating more products means more growth for your product business? The truth is…you only need ONE best selling product to have a successful business. If you don't know what that best selling product is, you're unsure where to focus your energy or you're looking for a clear strategy to scale your business.
