    Summary: In a loud online world, what does visibility with integrity really look like today for solopreneurs? When you know you need to be visible, but pushing content that feels misaligned just doesn’t sit right, choosing alignment over noise is no longer optional. “Holding the microphone is a responsibility that should not be taken lightly today” After a long pause, this episode marks the beginning of a new season of The Time Is Now and a conscious reset in how I show up as a business owner, content creator, and global citizen. In this episode, I take you behind the scenes of why I stepped back from content creation and what that pause revealed about how listening—to your body, your values, and your attention—can redefine the way you grow your business. What you will learn:
    • Why I paused—and what I focused on instead.
    • Three lessons that shape how solopreneurs show up with integrity.
    • What to expect from this season for you and your business.
