EP 374 | Community Creates Ease + Expansion

WITH ANDREA CRISP

 
 
 
“
A big part of being regulated is having compassion and understanding that this is a journey and that you are always growing, evolving, and healing.”
— Andrea Crisp
 

What if community isn't just about collaboration or getting the next referral for your business?

Cultivating real authentic community is about creating a safety, ease, and abundance in your nervous system. Community doesn't just grow your business - it expands you.

In this episode I'm sharing my recent time away in Toronto and the different ways in which community showed up for me.

From solo time at the spa, to having deep connected conversations with my bestie, to hosting a small girls in business lunch, and then stepping into a bigger networking event. Each layer plays a unique role in our expansion.

We'll dive into:

  • Why solitude and community both matter for our personal growth.

  • The importance of intimate friendships for co-regulation. 

  • How small group gathering build intimate connection.

  • The power of a bigger community to expand your vision.

  • How community creates ease in your nervous system (if done well).

EP 373 | The Hidden Power of Rest: How Slowing Down Creates More Abundance

WITH ANDREA CRISP

 
 
 
“
A big part of being regulated is having compassion and understanding that this is a journey and that you are always growing, evolving, and healing.”
— Andrea Crisp
 

Have you ever felt like slowing down might cost you everything? Like if you take a break, the momentum will disappear, the clients will stop coming, and the money will dry up? You’re not alone. I recently faced this fear myself—and what it revealed to me about my nervous system, hustle patterns, and relationship with money completely changed the way I see rest.

In this episode of The Couragecast, we’re diving into:

  • Why pausing or taking a break feels so unsafe for many entrepreneurs

  • What my summer slowdown revealed about my nervous system + money stories

  • How to create natural rhythms in your life and business without losing momentum

  • The key role nervous system regulation plays in sustainable success

I’ll share my personal story of stepping back from teaching and podcasting, and how that opened space for deeper alignment, flow, and divine inspiration. If you’ve ever worried that rest equals failure, this conversation will shift how you view breaks, hustle, and abundance.
