061: Angie Mays — Why Being Good at the Work Isn’t Enough

from Ren: Behind the Practice · host Ren Wellbeing

A behind-the-scenes conversation about the emotional reality of building a mission-led business — especially when the work you offer comes directly from your own lived experience of burnout, healing, and choosing yourself.In this episode, I’m joined by Angie Mays, a mindset coach for exhausted women who helps women stop putting themselves last, reclaim their energy, and learn how to prioritize themselves without guilt.What we explored:• Why being excellent at your work doesn’t automatically create business traction• The emotional rollercoaster of building a heart-led coaching business• How personal healing and business-building often happen in parallel• Why so many practitioners underestimate the realities of entrepreneurship• The desire to build a business that attracts aligned clients more naturallyThe business struggles so many practitioners face are rarely about the quality of their work. More often, they’re about navigating an entirely different skill set no one ever taught them.Angie’s links:→ Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/angiemaysmindsetcoachSophie’s links:👁️ Work with me: bio.site/ren.wellbeing👁️ Follow along on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ren.wellbeing/👁️ Everything else: https://www.ren-wellbeing.com/🤍
