welcome to bubbling out, the podcast for business owners, founders, and leaders who want successful businesses + to feel good whilst running them.

we’re not another business podcasts and we’re definitely not a textbook leadership podcast hosted by loud white men in suits.

we don’t just talk about building teams, improving decision-making skills, work-life balance, or burnout.

but we do focus on the real reason all of those things feel harder than they should: your nervous system, stress habits, and trauma biology, the invisible forces secretly running your business (and sometimes running you, into the ground).

every episode hands you the exact tools, stories & rituals you need to:
→ stop micromanaging, not because some leadership book said so, but because your body finally knows it’s safe to let go

→ make decisions fast—not because you hacked productivity, but because your brain isn’t fried from overthinking every damn thing

→ trust your team—without secretly rewriting their work at midnight

→ feel clear-headed walking into every meeting—not because you prepped for hours, but because your nervous system isn’t dragging last week’s stress into today’s call

→ actually taste your coffee—because your body isn’t already bracing for something to break

→ protect your energy—not with bubble baths, but by rewiring how your body holds pressure in real time

→ stop thinking you have to choose between biz growth and feeling good—because your business grows at the speed your nervous system can hold

business leadership isn’t what you know—it’s how you show up.

and the way you show up bubbles out into every decision, every deadline, every conversation, and every result.

if you want a business that moves fast, works efficiently, and feels good to lead—hit subscribe.

business success starts in your body,

because it’s not the strategy that makes it work, it’s your nervous system.
