37. Before you burn your business down with Liv and Martha
Sun Jul 20 2025
Liv and Martha get real about what’s actually underneath those “burn it all down” moments in business.
We unpack what happens when you're running on nervous system fumes, how to tell when you’re making decisions from a dysregulated place, and what to try before you set your business on fire (hint: it might involve snacks, naps, or aggressively unsubscribing from half the internet).
Here's what went down:
How to recognise the signs that you’re making decisions from a dysregulated state
Why panic can feel like clarity and how to tell when it’s not
What nervous system regulation actually involves (spoiler: it’s more than deep breaths and lavender oil)
The $200 seatbelt story and other meltdown-mode decisions
The small recalibrations that help when a full rebrand isn’t the answer
What to try before you bin your business (snacks, naps, and nervous system support)
Why The Branding Psychologist is dead and how this new chapter might shift things for you too
We also mentioned these people/things:
Liv’s behind-the-scenes rebrand updates (sign up for raw, unfiltered chaos and clarity)
Liv’s website
Liv’s LinkedIn and Instagram
Martha’s website
Martha’s HyperFocus Week services
Martha’s Substack: Neurodivergent Feminist
Martha’s LinkedIn and Instagram
