About this episode
Adrienne Donnelly interviews Jessica Conner about her journey from corporate burnout to running a successful consulting agency focused on helping business owners find balance.
You know those seasons in business where everything feels fine… until suddenly it really isn’t? One day you’re getting things done, the next you’re staring at your laptop thinking, “Wow, my brain has officially checked out.” We’ve all been there, holding everything together, pushing through tiredness, promising ourselves we’ll take a break “after this one thing.” You’re allowed to pause before it gets heavy. Support is allowed. Slowing down is allowed. And you’re definitely not the only one figuring this out as you go.

Jess went from leading large corporate teams to experiencing a burnout that completely reshaped how she defined success. Today, she runs a thriving VA + OBM agency built around one core mission: helping business owners create space to breathe again. It’s an honest, grounded conversation with plenty of moments you’ll recognise in your own journey. You’ll hear about: 🌱 What burnout taught Jess about success and asking for help 🌱 How she booked out her first month without cold pitching 🌱 Why genuine connection matters more than perfect…
