The Stages of Learning – From Overwhelm to Ownership - Episode 011
Episode Summary
In this deeply personal and powerful episode, Jeanetta opens up about the raw realities of entrepreneurship, comparison, burnout, and the emotional toll of constantly trying to prove your worth—especially in the wellness and yoga space. She shares the Four Stages of Competence, a framework that has helped her navigate not only business but also personal growth and healing.
From the beginner's high of "not knowing what you don't know" to the frustrating space of conscious incompetence, Jeanetta uses real-life stories—like teaching yoga, running a business, or facing limiting beliefs—to help listeners recognize where they are and how to move forward with grace, clarity, and community.

Learning is not a linear path. It’s messy, emotional, and sometimes painful. But through these stages, we get to become her—the version of ourselves we’ve always known was possible.
