Born To Be Brilliant

Bad decisions don't usually come from bad information. They come from overwhelm.

In this episode, Lucy is joined by Melissa Lewis of ML Property Venture, who shares her own burnout story from the early days of building her property business, and what it taught her about the real link between psychological state and decision making.

Melissa talks candidly about the day she couldn't get out of bed, the season of saying yes to every booking out of fear, and the mindset and structural shifts that pulled her out of it. Lucy and Melissa get into why ambitious, capable people are often the most vulnerable to this exact pattern, and what due diligence on yourself actually looks like, not just on a deal or an investment.

What you'll learn in this episode:

-Why overwhelm distorts judgement in ways that look like momentum from the outside

-Melissa's own burnout story and what it cost her before she caught it

-The specific systems and self-awareness practices she now relies on to protect her decision making

-Why your business strategy can be solid and your decisions still suffer if your nervous system is maxed out

-What it means to do due diligence on yourself, not just on the next deal

If you're making decisions from a place of overwhelm right now, eSCHOOL is built to help you build from a calmer, clearer place. Take a look here: lucyshrimpton.com/membership
