You Don’t Have to Carry It All Alone | Solo Episode

Episode 136 Published 1 week ago
Description

What happens when the woman who’s always encouraging everyone else suddenly feels overwhelmed herself?

In this vulnerable solo episode, Penny opens up about feeling foggy, stretched thin, and unexpectedly emotional after running out of pre-recorded guest episodes and realizing: “Oh… this week it’s just me.”

But what unfolds is a powerful reminder that overwhelm does not mean you’re failing. It often means you’ve been carrying too much for too long.

This conversation is for the women who are:
 • Holding everything together
 • Building businesses while supporting everyone else
 • Feeling stuck between excitement and exhaustion
 • Wondering if they’re the only ones struggling with visibility, confidence, or momentum

Penny shares honest reflections on midlife reinvention, imperfect action, asking for support, and why women were never meant to quietly shrink themselves with age.

Key Takeaways:
 • Why “foggy brain” seasons don’t mean you’re off track
 • The mindset shift that helps overwhelmed women move forward
 • How small actions build confidence and clarity
 • Why visibility can feel vulnerable for women entrepreneurs
 • The importance of community, connection, and letting yourself be supported

Key Topics:
 • Midlife reinvention
 • Women entrepreneurs and overwhelm
 • Visibility and confidence
 • Rediscovering yourself after 40
 • Taking imperfect action
 • Community and support for women
 • Building a meaningful life and business
