    What is the ‘Anti-Hustle’ way anyway?

    It’s working in flow, being kind to yourself, not shaming yourself, leaning into devotion and ambition and being proud of your vision.

    It is not desperate or needy or fake scarcity or income claiming or high pressure.

    It’s building a business that works around your brain and your lifestyle (examples - part-time hours, open/closed enrollments, no sales calls etc). Keeping systems simple eg all in one softwares, organic marketing only, low tech or outsourced etc. It is identifying resistance and alchemising it.

    It is facing inward and loving what is instead of pathologising and trying to change everything.

    It is a remembering. A coming home to who you are and running your business in a way that fits in with YOUR lifestyle, YOUR family commitments and YOUR brain.
