Through a real coaching example with an entrepreneur who couldn’t shut his mind off, Coach Fergie breaks down how tying your worth to constant productivity creates guilt around rest and keeps you stuck in a 24/7 mental loop. He introduces a powerful identity shift and a simple shutdown standard to help you regain control, sharpen your execution, and finally give yourself permission to stop.     📣QUOTE: "You don't have a stress problem.
