Exhausted Entrepreneurs: You Don’t Need Rest, You Need Purpose
In this episode of TWC Talks Podcast, Taylor Welch unpacks one of the most overlooked success secrets in entrepreneurship: defining your version of the good life.
If you’ve ever felt like you’re grinding without clarity, like the pressure is building, but the purpose feels missing, this episode is a wake-up call. Taylor shares hard-won insights from his own journey of building, burning out, and rebuilding with more intention, plus a powerful moment of personal conviction that changed how he sees influence, success, and service.
He breaks down why so many entrepreneurs end up climbing the wrong ladder — chasing money, accolades, and escape, instead of alignment, mission, and meaning. You’ll learn why more wealth is re-built than built, and why energy isn’t something you protect, it’s something you unlock through purpose.
Inside:
- The two things you must define to build a life worth living
- Why burnout is usually a crisis of meaning — not capacity
- How to identify the 20% of tasks that create 80% of your fulfillment
- Why escaping your business is often a sign it was never your calling
If you’re stuck, scattered, or searching for your next move, this episode will help you get back in alignment.
Tune in now and start building a life that actually feels like yours. Let’s go!
