In this episode, Diana pulls back the curtain on one of the biggest (yet least talked about) blocks holding impact-driven business owners back: the “accumulated disempowering business backpack.”

Diana spells out how these sneaky, subconscious, and nervous system holdbacks aren’t just affecting your joy and creativity—they’re keeping your revenue and impact stuck.

What you’ll learn:

  • Why so many mission-driven business owners end up dreading their own businesses (and what to do about it)
  • The #1 unspoken block keeping you from exponential growth, sales, and joy: your “disempowering business backpack”—what it is, how it’s formed, and practical steps to start releasing it.
  • Why your nervous system will literally pull you away from business tasks (especially the needle-moving ones!)
  • Real-life stories (from Diana and her clients) revealing how early business struggles, burnout, haters, and even client drama quietly create subconscious resistance, procrastination, dread, and self-sabotage if not cleared at a subconscious and nervous system level.
  • How to identify whether your relationship with growing your business, selling, marketing, clients, or launching has become disempowering
  • Why traditional “mindset hacks” or rationalizing aren’t enough—and the deeper work that clears these disempowering emotions and thoughts for good

Quotable Moments:

“The weight that you’re feeling is that accumulated, disempowering business backpack… And that to me is one of the least talked-about blocks and holdbacks of growing and exploding a business.”

“When you clear your business baggage—and you reinstall a positive, empowering relationship with growing your business and everything that makes your business successful—you're going to want to do more of the things that make your business grow."

“Our body and mind are not silly—they’re extremely wise. There’s a reason why you're experiencing this heaviness. It’s a message to dive deeper.”

Soul Work:

  • Take space to check in—what is your current relationship to your business? What thoughts, emotions, and sensations come up around growing, selling, launching, or appearing on social media? Notice any heaviness, dread, or negative stories and note them down.
  • If something feels off, don’t just “push through.” Instead, ask: Where did I first learn to relate to business/clients/sales this way? What story am I carrying, and since when?
