From Burnout to Alignment: My Year of Growth (& a big secret!) | Episode 97

It’s been one full year since I made the scary, bold, and totally aligned decision to close Bocu (my gift box business) and go all in on Kristin Fisher Coaching. In today’s episode, I’m getting VERY vulnerable on what the real transformation looked like after that decision... the personal and professional shifts, the mindset work, and the big, full-circle moment I’ve been holding close - until now.This is not an episode about “burn it all down.” It’s about what can happen when you stop overthinking, move through fear, simplify with intention, and lean into self-trust.I’m sharing the messy middle, the lessons I didn’t expect, and the surprising outcome of letting go - even when something was still “working.”If you’re standing at a crossroads in your business or life, or just craving permission to do things differently, then this one’s for you.What you’ll learn in this episode:Why overthinking is a giant time-suck (and how to stop doing it)The truth about fear, and how it builds self-trustHow simplifying can actually amplify your impact and your successWhy success doesn’t have to feel like a constant grind (and how we can stop thinking that “hard work = success”)How alignment actually fuels growthThat grief + gratitude can co-exist - and why it’s okay to mourn a good decisionThe life-changing power of choosing your next chapter on purposeMentioned in this episode:2024 Episodes going behind the scenes on WHY I closed my own product based business: Episode 70Episode 71Private Mentorship is VERY limited (listen to the end of the episode to hear why!)If you’re ready to get support inside your own next-level growth season:→ Head to kristinfishercoaching.com to learn more about private mentorship before limited spots close this November (or fill) - whichever comes first.→ Or DM me at @kristinfishercoaching to chat and see what is the right fit for you!LOOKING TO GROW YOUR WHOLESALE BUSINESS?Retail Pitching👇1) Get the NEW Buyerside Pitch Kit to help you pitch wholesale buyers with confidence.
