As a Solopreneur, How Do I Avoid or Bounce BackFrom Burnout with Renee La Tour
👇 No Time To Listen? Read The Summary. 👇
Here's the gist:
Busyness ≠ Productivity: Overworking isn’t a badge of honor; it’s a fast track to burnout. True efficiency comes from essentialism and prioritization—focusing on what truly matters instead of just filling your schedule.
Slow Down to Speed Up: Many cultures embrace a more relaxed approach to work, and solopreneurs can benefit from this mindset. Taking a step back, removing pressure, and being intentional with efforts can actually lead to faster, more sustainable progress.
You’re Figuring It Out. Celebrate That!: Instead of stressing about what’s not working, acknowledge and celebrate the progress you’ve already made. The journey is about evolution, not perfection.
Remove Distractions & Set Boundaries: Digital clutter (notifications, unnecessary meetings, social media scrolling) is stealing time and focus. Turning off notifications and being present in the moment can create more mental clarity and productivity.
Systems = Freedom: If your business depends entirely on you, it’s a job, not an asset. Documenting processes (even in simple forms) allows you to offload tasks, scale, and create more time freedom without sacrificing growth.

Company of One by Paul Jarvis
This book challenges the traditional idea that business success means constant growth. Instead, Jarvis argues that staying small and intentional can lead to more freedom, sustainability, and personal fulfillment. The book explores how solopreneurs can build profitable businesses without scaling for the sake of scaling, focusing on efficiency, purpose, and long-term success.
It reassures me that I don’t have to chase endless growth to be successful; I can build a business that fits my life, not the other way around. Jarvis gives practical advice on how to stay small, stay profitable, and stay in control without burnout.
