Summary

In this episode, Nicole sits down with the founder of Slow and Steady Studio, Amanda Laird. The two explore steadiness as something alive, wobbly, and deeply human.

In This Episode, You’ll Discover... Why steadiness often looks more like wobbling than standing still How burnout can become a doorway to a deeper kind of stability What riding a bike, surfing, and running a business all have in common Why “steady growth” is a beautiful contradiction — and how to live inside it How staying close to yourself matters more than staying on track Further Research Explore Amanda’s work at Slow and Steady Studio Subscribe to Amanda’s weekly newsletter, The Slowdown for thoughtful insights on marketing, growth, and staying human in business As always, you can reach the team at [email protected]
