Why I Built Capacity Club (Doors Close November 11th)
I spent twenty years as a hairstylist. I traveled the world, built a community of over a thousand people, and made a million dollars a year. From the outside, it looked amazing. On the inside, I had three breakdowns in five years, and the last one turned into two years of chronic burnout.
So I packed up my husband and the pups, rented a cabin on a river in Montana, and went radio silent for a month. When I came out of that, I knew I couldn't go back to my old life. I was forty years old, and nobody had ever explained to me how my own nervous system works. I wanted somebody to explain it in plain English, and I wanted a room full of women who would tell me the truth and stay in the room while I figured it out. I couldn't find that room, so I built it.
In this episode, I tell you the whole story, including the part where my depression took me down this year anyway, and I printed out my own toolkit and used it like a beginner. I walk you through what's inside Capacity Club: 30 videos in three phases, weekly questions, and a live coaching call every week where you bring whatever is going on in your life, and we work on it together.
You'll also hear what it did for four of our members. They came in burnt out, grieving, or sick of comparing themselves to everyone else. I've had coffee with some of them and gone to yoga with others. They show up for each other.
Doors close November 11th, which is also the day we start meeting weekly. Early bird is November 2nd through 6th at $79 a month, and after that it's $97 a month. Early bird saves you over $200 a year.
