\"We Hit The Goal And Felt Nothing\"
We built a business we actually loved, scaled it into a machine, and then felt nothing.
This week Becky and Ruth get into what happens when the goal you chased for years finally lands — and you realise you don't want it anymore. Not burnout. Not failure. Ambition, just quietly changing shape.
We talk about the dog-walking business that gave us more joy than property ever has on paper, why \"having it all\" is a millennial lie, and the David Deida line that reframed how we think about masculine and feminine energy in business.
Why losing your drive for something isn't a crisis. Why trying to be 100% at everything sets you up to fail. And why \"trad wife\" content is really just tired ambitious women asking for softness.
This one's for anyone who's hit the goal and gone… now what.
