What happens when your business looks successful on the outside… but behind the scenes, you’re exhausted, overbooked, and quietly resentful of your own calendar? In this episode of Look What She Built, Jaime Foster sits down with Tarletta Williams, Business Systems Strategist and founder of Your Marketing Mechanic, for a powerful, honest conversation about burnout, boundaries, and how AI can be used as a protector not a productivity bully. Tarletta shares the quote that hangs on her kitchen wall and becomes the heartbeat of this episode:“You can’t pay me my worth, but I will get my rate.” Together, Jaime and Tarletta unpack what it really looks like to stop overdelivering, stop people-pleasing, and start designing systems that support your energy, time, and humanity not just your revenue. This is not a techy episode.This is a relief episode. In this conversation, you’ll learn: Why “charge what you’re worth” is terrible advice for women entrepreneurs How burnout sneaks in when retention, boundaries, and systems are missing What an offer-led ecosystem is and why it beats “just get more clients” How Tarletta uses AI and automations to say no gracefully (without guilt) Why your calendar is actually your real boss and how to reclaim it What “CEO Habits” look like when you’re a solopreneur wearing every hat How to use AI in a way that still feels feminine, intuitive, and authentic The difference between systems that replace you and systems that protect you Why freedom isn’t about avoiding consequences, but choosing them consciously Learn more about Tartella Williams: Your Marketing Mechanic LinkedIn

What if the real problem isn’t that you’re not doing enough… but that you’ve been doing too much in survival mode? In this powerful conversation, Jaime sits down with leadership coach and mental wellness advocate Jackie Roby to unpack what’s really happening beneath the surface for high-achieving women who look wildly successful on paper but feel emotionally exhausted behind the scenes. Jackie shares why worry is “just fantasizing about what you don’t want,” how anxiety can drown out intuition, and why so many women are taught to perform excellence instead of actually living it. Together, they explore the invisible mental load women carry, the pressure to assimilate in male-dominated spaces, and what it truly means to lead from calm, confidence, and authenticity. If you’ve ever felt like you’re holding your life together with emotional duct tape, this episode will feel like a deep exhale. In This Episode, You’ll Learn: Why chronic worry keeps high-achieving women stuck in survival mode The difference between intuition and anxiety (and how to tell which voice you’re hearing) How “performing excellence” leads to burnout and disconnection Subtle signs a leader is operating from overwhelm instead of strategy Practical tools to calm your nervous system in real time How mindfulness can shorten emotional recovery from weeks to hours Why being “basic” is the fastest way to lose your power and presence Learn more about Jackie Roby
