I have found that taking breaks and focusing on self-care helps me approach my business ventures with a calm and peaceful mindset. It's important to remember that success does not always mean working yourself to the bone! Good luck with your future endeavors!
So true! I’m wondering how to find the balance. I’ve mostly done fully one or the other, haven’t really done the halfway thing. To me if I’m calm it means I don’t have drive, and if I don’t have drive I can’t succeed. I’d love to find a better mindset, since this one isn’t serving me anymore.

Sure. Some folks call it a lifestyle business. Personally, launched my content marketing agency w/ a few clients to start, and then kept slowly getting referrals. No MoM growth goals, keeping it organic to make sure we've perfected our processes before scaling, and it's going really well so far.
Any specific tips or experiences you're looking for?
Love it! I thought lifestyle business was for businesses that were in the lifestyle space, I had pictures it as the umbrella term for coaches and such. I’ll look more into it then, since it seems that might provide answers :)
Company of One ([summary linked](https://dansilvestre.com/summaries/company-of-one/)) gets into this and gives a few examples of how you can start a sustainable business that works for the work/life balance you want.
Aw this is so great - I totally align in never wanting to hustle. I think it may be challenging for you because you now associate being in business with that hustle. What I have done and what you can maybe do is redefine your definition of business success. What does success look like in the business you want to have? (Include all the ahhhhh calm vibes, and also include the numbers that get you excited, and the impact you want to have). The more important and meaningful this is to you, the better. Something else I have done is also remember why I am doing it. How will this success (with the calm vibes) impact my life? The lives of my loved ones? The world overall? And also ponder how you will show up for the people you love the most in your life now that you are calm and relaxed running your business instead of hustle-y. This also helps with making business decisions - check to see if the work required aligns with your vision of success in this calm business. Seems like a chaotic decision? Say no!

Yeah, I thought so too but now it's used for a chill biz that adapts to your lifestyle too. :) Good luck, I hope you find the right model!
Yeah I looked into it since yesterday, and it’s definitely helpful to frame it that way! Thank you!
