How to Integrate Self-Care Into Your Business Strategy – Heidi Weiland | Ep 73

In this episode, I sat down with Heidi Weiland, a holistic business coach whose journey from self-taught web developer to thriving entrepreneur brings a whole new perspective to building a sustainable business. We dove into what burnout really looks like, especially for sensitive and introverted solopreneurs, and why traditional “hustle harder” advice often misses the mark for folks like us. Heidi shared practical ways to design a business model that honors your energy, human needs, and unique strengths—so you can actually enjoy your work and your life. My hope is that you walk away inspired to create more space in your schedule, prioritize real self-care, and remember that scaling doesn’t have to mean working more or burning out. This episode is all about finding success on your own terms.
