My Entrepreneurial Journey with Yaritza Báez
My Entrepreneurial Journey is a podcast for women entrepreneurs in their 40s and 50s who are in the early stages of building a business and doing it honestly, one step at a time.
This isn't a show about six-figure months or overnight success. It's about what building a business actually looks like: the slow seasons, the self-doubt, the small wins that don't feel small, and the moments you almost quit but didn't.
Each episode offers real talk, personal stories, and grounded reflection to help you stay the course when momentum feels invisible and remind you that showing up consistently, even imperfectly, is how foundations get built.
If you're one to three years into your business and wondering whether you're doing enough, moving fast enough, or getting it right, you're in the right place.
This podcast is your reminder that you are not behind. You are building

My Entrepreneurial Journey with Yaritza Báez
Ep. 31 Breaking Up With Burnout & Building Something That’s Yours
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Burnout isn’t just about being busy; it’s deeper than that.
In this episode of My Entrepreneurial Journey, I’m joined by Elisha Meek, author, entrepreneur, burnout coach, and corporate professional with over 17 years of experience in Talent Acquisition.
We talk about what burnout really looks like (beyond the usual “I’m just tired”), and why so many women feel stuck living for their inbox instead of building something meaningful of their own.
Elisha shares insights from her upcoming book Break Up With Burnout and introduces a different way forward, one that doesn’t require quitting your job or adding more pressure to your life.
Instead, it’s about creating something that’s yours… in a way that feels sustainable.
In this episode, we explore:
✨ What burnout actually is and how it’s different from stress
✨ The idea of “breaking up with burnout” (and what that really means)
✨ Why building a side project can be a powerful shift
✨ The biggest mistakes women make when starting something new
✨ Simple, realistic first steps even when you’re already exhausted
✨ How alignment and identity play a role in burnout
✨ What changes when you start building something that belongs to you
If you’ve been feeling stretched thin, disconnected, or quietly craving something more, this conversation will meet you right where you are.
