About the show

The Sheila Botelho Show is a business and leadership podcast for founders, CEOs, and women leading at the highest level of their work, who are ready to build the next decade of their business with more clarity, more profit, and more of themselves in the room. You’ve already done the hard part. You’ve built something that works. You’ve hit the goals that looked impressive from the outside. And somewhere along the way, you started wondering what it would feel like to grow without trading pieces of yourself for the next milestone. That’s the conversation happening on this show. Every week, Sheila pulls up a chair for the kind of conversations you’d have with a trusted friend who’s spent decades growing businesses through wave after wave of change, reading rooms, and helping people come home to themselves no matter how fast the landscape moves. You’ll hear about business strategy, leadership, profit, scaling, identity, creativity, and the shifting landscape of entrepreneurship in a season where everything is changing at once. Solo chats, minisodes, and conversations with founders and leaders building businesses with depth and integrity. Real talk for the woman who’s done the surface-level work and is ready for something with more substance. So come on in. Get comfortable. This is the place to think bigger, lead steadier, and trust yourself more fully every time you press play. New episodes Tuesdays and Thursdays. Subscribe to Sheila’s Notes at sheilabotelho.com/notes for the deeper thinking behind each episode.

Why Do I Suddenly Feel Like I Can't Do the Thing I've Already Proven I Can Do | EP 619

Years ago I ran two corporate events, fifty people each cycle, without a shred of doubt. A handful of years later, trying to do something similar in my own business, the exact same task felt daunting. This episode is about what actually changed, and why the fear you feel around something you've already proven you can do usually isn't telling you what you think it's telling you.
