E044: Why You Can't Build When Your Basic Needs Aren't Met (And What Capacity Actually Means)

from The Creative Clarity Show

Sarah gets real about something most business advice ignores: you can't build when you're in survival mode. Whether that's food insecurity, time poverty, chronic illness, caregiving demands, or economic stress - when your basic needs aren't met, your nervous system won't let you focus on growing your brand. In this episode, she breaks down the hierarchy of needs, what capacity actually means, and why her work focuses on building within limitations, not pretending they don't exist. Set Apart Company has pledged over $20,000 (so far) in pro-bono coaching to combat these barriers, and this week, they're spotlighting Feeding America as part of Podcastathon.
