Workshop for entrepreneurs: Scaling without Burnout

Building a business you love shouldn’t come at the cost of your energy, clarity, or wellbeing. Yet many entrepreneurs reach a point where growth starts feeling heavier instead of easier.

This workshop will help you understand why burnout happens, how to spot it early, and how to structure your business and your habits so you can scale with more ease, more focus, and more sustainability.

Background

Founder burnout is rising across industries, driven by long hours, decision overload, inconsistent support, and the pressure to “do it all.”

This session combines two essential perspectives:
• The business side: how to reduce chaos, create smoother operations, and stop being the bottleneck.
• The human side: how to protect your energy, manage stress, and stay aligned with the work that matters most.

You’ll walk away with practical ideas you can apply immediately, without needing to overhaul your entire business.

• Startup founders and small-business owners
