(#191) Burning down your business is not the answer. This identity shift will lead to a 20h work week.

from Be Magnetic Podcast · host Tara Fischer

This episode cuts through the idea that a better strategy, a cleaner calendar, or smarter systems are what's standing between you and a 20-hour work week. Because you can block rest into your schedule, outsource your admin, and repurpose your content — and still find every free minute filled with something that "needs" to get done. Real change happens when you understand two things: The identity you're still operating from — and whether she actually wants to work less, or just thinks she does.The internal system running underneath your business systems, and why it keeps pulling you back into overwork.In this episode, I'm getting honest about the years I spent trying to work less — in business and in my relationship — while still being the first to raise my hand every time something needed fixing.

But I was still the woman who needed to be in control, needed to be busy, needed to fix it to feel okay. We're talking about:Why restructuring alone won't reduce your workload — and what actually willThe 4 feminine energetic principles that have to shift before your schedule canThe 3 identity beliefs keeping you in overwork, even when you consciously want outWhy "knowing" a belief isn't enough to change itAnd the exact process to identify where these patterns started — and how to actually rewrite themThis one is for the women whose business is technically ready for 20 hours — but whose nervous system hasn't caught up yet. KEEP LISTENING:(#190) How to make your first 5-figures working 20h a week Let me know your biggest take away from the episode 💌 UNBECOMING - PRIVATE SESSION If you are ready to change how you operate, book Unbecoming - a 2-hour private session to release the strategies and beliefs that no longer fit the goals you have. 🔗 WANT TO GO DEEPER? → Discover how you’re leading as a female business owner and what it’s costing you by taking the free CEO Archetype Quiz ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SUPPORT THE PODCAST:Please subscribe, rate & review the show wherever you listen, to help support the show. 💖⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow Tara on Instagram ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  Music by Disrots from Pixabay
