Have you ever wondered about the magic that happens when you rest? In this episode of My Good Woman, we dive into an unconventional celebration of a new kind of laziness – one that is strategic, soul-nourishing, and designed to recharge and revamp creativity in the entrepreneurial world.  

Let’s go! 

We will challenge societal judgments around taking breaks and embrace the liberating philosophy of working hard and napping harder. If you’re ready to redefine your path to success, listen to this episode as we learn to bet on ourselves.

In this episode:

  • How personal freedom shapes your entrepreneurial journey.
  • The importance of balancing creativity and productivity in entrepreneurship.
  • Revisiting the concept of “laziness” in the context of self-care.
  • Why downtime is crucial for innovation/invention.
  • Revealing the “Genius List” for getting the most from your “lazy” time.

This episode at a glance:

[03:39] It is time to toss those judgy voices out of our mental boardrooms and embrace the glorious, liberating philosophy of working hard and napping harder. 

[04:32] Entrepreneurial fear would have me always working unless I was with my family or sleeping.

[05:32] This is not just about being a renegade or a rebel; it’s about creating an ecosystem that promotes creativity and productivity.

[06:46] Embracing balance will allow you to better help your clients work less, achieve more, and understand their leadership styles and strengths.  

[07:16] This isn’t about shirking responsibilities. It’s about refreshing your mind, rebooting your creativity, and ultimately redefining your freedom.

More about the “She’s that founder” podcast

Welcome to She’s That Founder, the podcast for ambitious women who are ready to stop drowning in decisions and start running their businesses like the confident CEOs they were born to be with the help of AI magic.

I’m your host, Dawn Andrews—executive coach, business strategist, and founder of Free Range Thinking. I’m also a proud female leader, mom, and mentor who believes scaling a business shouldn’t come at the cost of your sanity.

Each week, we dig into the real tools and strategies you need to scale smarter, not harder: faster delegationsystems that won’t collapse if you take a nap, and AI tools that actually lighten your load instead of adding to it.

You’ll hear proven revenue strategies, executive leadership frameworks, and practical tools to build a business that grows without burning you out.

We keep it real here—expect candid conversations, quick hits, and the occasional founder rant. Listener discretion is advised (because we don’t always bleep the swear words).

If you like what you hear, make sure to follow along so you never miss an episode. And before you go, leave us a review—it means the world and helps more women founders step fully into their CEO power.
