The mistakes that nearly broke me: The year everything changed (Ep. 60)
This week’s episode is raw, unfiltered, and deeply personal.
Sasha pulls back the curtain on a year that changed everything—starting with the unexpected loss of her husband’s job just two weeks after their daughter was born. What followed was a season of survival, overcommitting, and trying to hold it all together while building a business, being a mother, and learning what it really means to trust yourself.
In this honest solo episode, Sasha shares:
- The truth about postpartum, pressure, and why her maternity leave didn’t exist
- The reactive decisions that led to burnout and misalignment
- A collaboration that went very wrong—and the $10K lesson it left behind
- Why she’s saying no to branding, websites, and marketing projects moving forward
- The real reason she’s rebuilding her reputation and brand from the inside out
- What clarity feels like now—and the bold next chapter for Daring Haus
If you’re navigating a pivot, feeling stuck in fight-or-flight, or questioning your next move—this episode is a permission slip to slow down, shift direction, and remember that you’re allowed to evolve.
