In this episode of Living Boldly, How to Break Your Income Ceiling Without Burning Out, Kayla Hodges gets real about income plateaus, why “work harder” often makes things worse and why so many sales tactics were never designed with women in mind.

She shares her own story of hitting the same number month after month, stacking activity, and still feeling behind, then the shifts that created consistent revenue without sacrificing energy, boundaries, or joy.
