What does it actually take to build a thriving business without burning out?In this episode I'm joined by Tara Punter, founder of The Thriving Business Woman, coach, mentor and host of the Thrive in Life and Business podcast. Tara shares the raw story of the burnout that landed her in A&E alone during COVID - and exactly what she changed so it never happened again. We talk about spotting the early warning signs of burnout, ditching the word 'should', building a brand that is a true extension of who you are, and running a business on your own terms - without funnels, Facebook ads or hustle culture. If you have ever felt like you are surviving rather than thriving, this one is for you. Connect with Tara: https://www.instagram.com/thethrivingbusinesswomanPodcast: Thrive in Life and BusinessJoin me for FREE, live Clarity and Calm Journaling Circles (online every Tuesday at 8pm UK time) - click here to get your ticketBook a FREE Action Filter call with me:Click here for more info and to book your callJoin my mailing list to get a 2nd dose of "Sue" straight into your email inbox every Thursday - click here to sign upEmail me at [email protected] with me:On Instagram https://instagram.com/suerichards.coachingOn LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/suerichardscoachingReady to explore how I can support you?

The theme for this year’s International Women’s Day is Give to Gain and it's sparked a lot of debate.Many women already give huge amounts of their time, energy and care, often putting their own goals and wellbeing last.

This bonus episode is a direct add-on to episode titled “Waking up to the life you’re meant to live”  so if you've not yet tuned into that episode I recommend that you listen to that one first and then come back to this on. This in episode I’m diving deeper what Truman’s final choice teaches us about comfort, courage, and freedom (this will all make more sense once you've listened to the other episode).Spoiler alert: this episode talks about the ending of The Truman Show, so if you've not yet watched the film, and you don't want to know what happens I'd suggest you don't listen to this episode until you've watched the film.Join me for FREE, live Clarity and Calm Journaling Circles (online every Tuesday at 8pm UK time) - click here to get your ticketBook a FREE Action Filter call with me:Click here for more info and to book your callJoin my mailing list to get a 2nd dose of "Sue" straight into your email inbox every Thursday - click here to sign upEmail me at [email protected] with me:On Instagram https://instagram.com/suerichards.coachingOn LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/suerichardscoachingReady to explore how I can support you?

Are you really in control of your life - or are you just running on autopilot (without even realising it)?After re-watching The Truman Show, I was struck by how much it reflects the way many of us live: stuck in comfortable routines, maintaining relationships out of habit, and following a path that doesn’t actually belong to us. We might not be surrounded by actors like Truman was - but we can absolutely find ourselves stuck in scripts that aren’t ours.In this episode, I share the reflections and questions this film sparked for me, including:How autopilot keeps us in a cycle of “just enough” livingWhy some relationships quietly hold us back from growthWhat it really means to take control of your own realityThis one’s an invitation to pause, question, and decide whether the life you’re living is the one you truly want.The extra bonus/add-on episode I refer to in this episode is called " Comfort vs. freedom – which door are you choosing?"

But what happens when that very strength becomes the thing that burns us out?In this episode, I’m unpacking the hidden cost of self-sufficiency, and why “just pushing through” might be the reason you’re feeling stuck, frustrated, and overwhelmed.
