Ep 35: The Fear of Success No One Talks About (Entrepreneur Mom Edition)

What happens when a corporate sales career ends unexpectedly… and becomes the catalyst for building something better?

In this episode of Unquiet You, I sit down with Elisabeth Allen, a former healthcare and software sales professional turned LinkedIn Growth Strategist, to talk about layoffs, identity shifts, entrepreneurship, and the real fear of success.

Elisabeth shares her journey from 15 years in sales to building a business that aligns with her values, motherhood, and desire for flexibility.

We dive into the mindset challenges of leaving corporate America, navigating entrepreneurship with young kids at home, overcoming the fear of growing “too fast,” and redefining success on your own terms. Elizabeth also breaks down why LinkedIn is one of the most powerful (and underrated) platforms for business growth today, especially for service-based businesses and B2B founders.

If you’re a woman building a business, navigating career transitions, balancing family and ambition, or curious about how LinkedIn can drive real sales conversations, this episode is packed with insight, strategy, and honest conversation about building a life that actually feels good.
