72. Stop the Hustle: Why "Doing Less" is Your New Success Strategy
Tue Feb 03 2026
Are you wearing your "busy-ness" like a badge of honor?
I've been there, running on caffeine and fumes, trying to squeeze a smoothie into a two-minute gap between meetings, and feeling like if there's a white space on my calendar, I must fill it.
But here's the truth I had to learn the hard way: we are not built to be in a perpetual harvest. Just like the earth, we need seasons to rest and recalibrate.
In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on why the traditional 24-hour "hustle" culture is actually designed for masculine energy, and why we, as modern Latinas, need to reclaim our 28-day cycle (or the lunar cycle!) to truly thrive.
I'm sharing how I used these exact energetic blueprints to plan a business retreat that generated a potential of three-quarters of a million dollars in just three days. Yes, really!
Whether you are in your reproductive years or navigating the wisdom of menopause, your body has a roadmap for productivity that doesn't involve burnout.
Grab a cafecito, and let's talk about how to let your body lead the way.
The Magic You'll Discover in This Episode:
The 24-Hour vs. 28-Day Myth: Why the world is set up for a masculine cycle and why trying to fit into it is keeping you exhausted. The Four Phases of Creation: A breakdown of the Follicular, Ovulatory, Luteal, and Menstrual phases, and how to align your business tasks with each one. The Moon as Your Guide: How to harness lunar energy if you're in menopause, pregnant, or not currently cycling. CEO Energy & Astrocartography: How I combined moon phases with location strategy to create a $750k plan in 72 hours. Practical Tracking: Simple ways to start "layering" your schedule so you're brainstorming when you're creative and resting when you're smart.
Ready to start syncing your life and business with the moon? I've put together a guide breaking down each phase and its unique energy, plus my 2026 Moon Phase Google Calendar so you can see exactly when to push and when to pause.
