What if the answer to burnout isn't doing more... but defining enough?

In this episode, I sit down with Becky Mollenkamp—feminist business coach, author, and liberation advocate—for a conversation that challenges everything we've been conditioned to believe about success, productivity, and money. Becky assigns me a 30-day experiment designed to decondition my brain from capitalism's relentless "more, more, more" and help me discover what enough actually looks like.

This isn't about deprivation or settling. It's about freedom. Freedom from the straight jacket of hustle culture, from chasing arbitrary revenue goals, and from sacrificing sleep, joy, and creativity in pursuit of someone else's definition of success.

If you're a manifesting generator like me (or just someone who constantly feels like you should be doing more), this episode will make you rethink everything. We explore how to define your own enough across money, time, productivity, and values... and why that simple act is one of the most radical things you can do as a business owner.

Topics:

• Why capitalism conditions us to believe "enough" means failure or settling
• The four-week framework for defining and implementing your enough
• How to audit your time and money against your actual values
• Why defining enough is harder (and more liberating) than you think
• The difference between needs, wants, and what capitalism tells us we want
• How Becky's quarterly hotel retreats became part of her enough
