Big business goals are often positioned as the answer - more money, more momentum, more success. But what happens when your business is technically working… and still feels stressful, loud, or insecure?

In this episode of The Peaceful Creatives Podcast, I’m sharing why I stopped chasing big milestones and started prioritising steadiness instead and how that shift completely changed the way my business feels to run.

This is a big-picture conversation for established creative service providers who want to feel calmer, more confident, and more in control without losing ambition or success.

✨ Inside this episode:

  • Why big goals can quietly create pressure and reactivity

  • How a business can “work” and still feel exhausting

  • What I actually mean by steadiness (and what it isn’t)

  • The shift from chasing growth to leading with confidence

  • Why steadiness creates more sustainable success, not less

This is a sneak peek of part of the strategy I teach inside Booked Not Busy - helping creative service providers get booked in advance, attract dreamy clients, and build a business that runs peacefully and focuses on steadiness and consistency.

Listen along above, and I really hope you enjoy! 🥰
