Описание: If you survived 2025, congrats, truly. In this episode, I’m sharing exactly how I’m building my business in 2026 in a way that actually works with my body and brain instead of bulldozing over them.





This is a real, no-fluff breakdown of what it looks like to prioritize health, slow growth, community, and systems that don’t cause constant flare-ups or burnout. No hustle. No “just push through.” No pretending social media is saving anyone’s business.
