EP 3: Resilience, Rest, and Redefining Success

self-care • Aug 19, 2025 3:13:54 PM • Written by: Erin Aquin

What if burnout wasn’t the end of your business story—but the beginning of something richer, more sustainable, and more human?

In this episode of The Coaching Mixer, Erin and Elana sit down with their caffeinated drinks to talk honestly about the cycles of burnout and renewal, and what it really means to build a business that supports both your vision and your well-being.

You’ll discover:

  • Why the traditional definition of success in coaching often leads to overwork—and how to spot the trap before you fall into it.
  • The surprising role that boredom, rest, and even “falling apart” can play in sparking new growth.
  • How to rebuild trust with yourself when you’ve lost motivation or hit a wall in your business.
  • Practical (and personal) ways to experiment with structure, resilience, and aligned growth without slipping back into burnout.
  • What it looks like to hold both ambitious business goals and your humanity at the same time.

This is not another “hustle harder” conversation. It’s an invitation to think differently about how you show up for yourself, your clients, and your business.

So pour yourself a favorite drink, pull up a chair, and join us for a conversation that will leave you both encouraged and challenged to grow as a coach and business owner—on your own terms.
