116 Why working 4-hour days feels harder than working 10 & how to reprogram your subconscious guilt behind it | Interview with Alja Podgornik

Nobody warns you that the hardest part about working 4 hour days isn’t managing your time or getting your work done faster.  It’s actually allowing yourself to let 4 hours of work be enough without feeling guilty like you could have “done more”.  That low-level guilt you feel when you leave your office or laptop early?  That voice in the back of your mind that whispers (or screams) ‘I haven’t deserved to rest yet’?  That has zero to do with you becoming more productive.  What's actually going on here is how your subconscious has been conditioned to perceive success, productivity and rest.  And today we’re breaking down exactly what’s going on and how to reprogram it.

113 How I navigated a chemical pregnancy + first trimester sickness while running my online business 🤢❤️‍🩹

❤️‍🩹 TRIGGER WARNING ❤️‍🩹 In this episode, I talk about pregnancy loss and early pregnancy. Please take care of yourself while listening wherever you are on this journey or however you relate to it. In this episode, I’m sharing a personal story I wasn’t sure I’d tell. During the second half of 2025, I navigated a chemical pregnancy, followed shortly after by the early months of a new pregnancy all while trying to keep my business running, support my clients, and run a few new creative projects. Spoiler: I had to let go of most of it. And that’s okay. This is an honest reflection on what it looked like to show up (and sometimes not show up) during one of the most vulnerable and physically intense seasons I’ve ever been through. I talk about: 👉What a chemical pregnancy is, how it hit me, and why it’s so often minimized 👉What it felt like to hold space for others while grieving behind the scenes 👉The whiplash of going from pregnancy loss into first trimester symptoms: fatigue, nausea, brain fog, and big emotions 👉How I redefined my relationship with content, productivity, and online business norms 👉What actually helped me feel better (and what didn’t) I also share how my 4-hour workday system became the ultimate safety net… Why I let my visibility take a backseat for two months… And how I’m slowly reshaping what business looks like for me from here. This episode is for you if you're: 👉Going through something heavy while holding or building a business 👉Navigating loss, fatigue, or emotional overwhelm behind the scenes 👉Wondering if it's okay to “disappear” for a while (short answer: yes) 👉Craving a business model that holds you, not just the other way around Next Steps: Download your FREE 4 Hour Work Day Starter Pack [https://itslauralange.thrivecart.com/4hourworkdaystarterpack/]  Inside you’ll find the exact tools to stack consistent sales while working fewer hours a day and creating more white space in your calendar.
