Hey CEO…I don’t know about you, but I was addicted to SPEED.

No, not the drug kind, but the always-doing kind.

You know- the always fitting more in, the forever checking more boxes, the constant being everywhere all-the time kind of speed- especially in my business cuz I had people to serve and goals to reach, you too?

Except all that speed only resulted in one thing- HURRY SICKNESS.

Perhaps you’ve heard my story of my diagnosis of Hystericus Globus where my ignoring of the signs I was always going too fast finally caught up with me.

The same thing happened to my friend Jennifer Dukes Lee- except her doctor didn’t try to hand her a pill to make it all go away. He told her it was a HEART problem, not as in the pumping blood kind, but the what she was running after kind. When I read her story in her book Growing Slow this summer and heard it took a diagnosis of hurry sickness for her too to finally embrace Growing Slow, I couldn’t put the book down and had to invite her to be on the podcast.

Jennifer Dukes Lee is the bestselling author of several books, including Growing Slow, It’s All Under Control, and Stuff I’d Only Tell God. She’s a fan of queso, bright lipstick, and singing too loudly to songs with great harmony. She lives on a fifth-generation family farm in Iowa, where she and her husband have made a life of growing crops, pigs, two beautiful humans, and an enduring faith.

And you’re about to listen in on a very real conversation as we walk through the 4 seasons, Spring, Summer, Fall and Winter on the farm and in our hearts and explore the purpose God has behind each one.

I have a feeling this is one you’re gonna want to listen to again and share with your BIZ BESTIES who also may be addicted to speed and suffering (undiagnosed) from HURRY SICKNESS…cuz I think we all do, especially when trying to scale a business to 6 figures and beyond.

What if by Growing Slow, you can put down the roots, sustain the growth and experience a harvest beyond what you ever thought possible?
