Permission Slips, Please: Why You Don’t Need One to Build Your Empire

This week Jaime is handing out permission slips—figuratively, of course—to every overwhelmed, over-giving, burnout-prone woman trying to build her dream business.

If you’ve ever found yourself mentally rehearsing excuses for a lazy Sunday, saying “yes” when your gut screams “no,” or burning out while waiting for someone else to give you the green light—you’re not alone. Jaime shares a deeply relatable solo episode on why we look outside ourselves for approval and how to take back your power today.

You’ll hear vulnerable stories, hilarious truths, and practical wisdom about trusting your gut, setting unapologetic boundaries, and finally resting without guilt.

Because here's the truth: No one else can give you the permission you already hold.
