| 6/25/26 | ![]() 407: Is Your Business Killing Your Relationship? | We have a special episode for you today! A few weeks ago, Dr. Sabrina was invited to a webinar in the Pumpkin Planners Rock Facebook Group to consider this important question: “Is your business killing your relationship?” We’ve found that this topic resonates deeply with small business owners everywhere, because we all fear that our commitment to our work is taking over our lives, killing our marriages, and damaging our relationships with loved ones. We are bringing you this webinar to increase understanding about entrepreneurial burnout and to prevent your business from becoming the uninvited third party in your relationships. If you want to show up fully present in your most important relationships, this episode is for YOU. It could change your life!Donna Leyens is the president and co-founder of Pumpkin Plan Your Biz. She is on a mission to save small businesses from extinction by providing tools, strategies, training, and support to business professionals who want to make a big impact as small business growth strategists. This mighty team of strategists uses The Pumpkin Plan Action Guide, a business growth program Donna developed based on the methods in the book, The Pumpkin Plan, written by her co-founder, Mike Michalowicz. Pumpkin Plan Strategists help small businesses not just stay afloat but also scale and grow in both profitability and size, while giving the owner time for life and relationships. Profit by Design is a Tap the Potential production. Show Highlights:The mission of the Pumpkin Plan programThe early warning signs that your business is damaging your relationshipThe trap: Being physically present and mentally “checked out” with our familiesHow to know when your business is taking up way too much of your mental spaceYou’re not a bad person if you’re a burned-out entrepreneur! (Our Better Business, Better Life Assessment is the only tool that measures burnout in entrepreneurs and the health of their businesses.)Burnout: A combination of all the small things and stressors we absorb (Listen to the cold, hard facts that our research has shown.)Dr. Sabrina’s story (Listen to learn why this mission is a personal one.)Entrepreneurs are disconnected at home.

Nothing else matters!Action steps to start today: Recognize that limits drive innovation and creativity, completely turn off your phone in the evenings and on weekends (Do you need a “Work supports life” sticker?), and ask your loved ones what would be going on if your relationship were at a “10.” Resources:Take the Better Business, Better Life Assessment to identify what may be keeping you stuck and killing your relationships! | — | ||||||
| 6/18/26 | ![]() 406: Why Burned-Out Business Owners Make Fear-Based Decisions | Burnout doesn’t just make you tired; it changes how you show up and lead. When you’re constantly emotionally exhausted and under pressure, you make reactive decisions instead of strategic ones, and you hold onto control because everything feels risky. You avoid hard conversations, say YES when you should say NO, and lead from a place of urgency, fear, and survival mode rather than clarity and confidence. The hardest part is that most high-performing business owners don’t even realize it’s happening, because they are still functioning, still producing, and still carrying the business. They’ve lost their peace, perspective, energy, and trust in themselves. If this resonates with you, you’re not alone! The solution isn’t taking time off, but it’s rebuilding your relationship with yourself that can change everything in your business. In this episode, Melissa Kay and Dr. Sabrina Starling unpack how burnout affects decision-making, why high performers normalize emotional exhaustion, the connection between self-leadership and business growth, and how to lead from clarity rather than fear.Profit by Design is a Tap the Potential production.Show Highlights:Real-life examples from Dr. Sabrina about fear-based decisions and the “dumb tax.”The cost of losing the ability to think strategically is making reactive decisions.Creating boundaries, leading proactively, and NOT overfunctioningYou can’t say YES to every opportunity!Melissa’s perspective on better relationships and strategic thinking about self-careMelissa’s powerful question: “If the relationship with myself is a 10, what am I experiencing?”Dr. Sabrina’s revelation about grief and loveAnother powerful question: “If I took care of myself the way I care for others, what would I be doing for myself?”Let go of hustle culture!Our clients experience a 700% increase in time off, a 215% increase in profit, and a 55% increase in owner’s pay–in the first year with us!Your next step? Take our Better Business, Better Life Assessment. Click here to do it today!Dr. Sabrina’s gold nugget for today: “As you head into this weekend, fully unplug from your business. Just do it.”Resources:Take the Better Business, Better Life Assessment to identify what may be keeping you stuck in survival mode! | — | ||||||
