48. How to Tell if it’s Burnout or Just Not Meant to Be

Episode Summary

How can you tell if it’s burnout or if it’s just time to shut ‘er down? This week, Dawn opens up about the side of business you don’t really see on social media – the challenges and failures. She discusses how everyone’s experience with running a business is going to look completely different from the person next to you, and if it’s burnout or just not your thing. Dawn also validates the idea of accepting that the eCommerce industry isn’t for everyone and that’s perfectly okay. The most important part of this journey is to know that if your passion is always evolving into something better than it was before, then you’re in the right place. But if you have to close a door in order to open a new one, then go for it because that is part of your purpose.
