The Shadow Business Podcast
What if the blocks in your business have nothing to do with strategy and everything to do with the unseen patterns running beneath it?
Hosted by business coach and systemic guide Sarah Berckenkamp, The Shadow Business Podcast reveals the hidden dynamics that shape your money, your clients, your launches, and your leadership.
Each episode (launched every Thursday morning) takes you beneath the surface of entrepreneurship into the world of family systems, nervous system responses, and emotional inheritance; so you can finally understand why you get stuck, why you sabotage yourself, and why success sometimes feels harder than it should.
This is not just another business podcast.
It’s a deep, unfiltered look at the shadows behind your strategy and the powerful breakthroughs available when you choose to lead differently.
For entrepreneurs who are ready to trade quick fixes for real transformation, The Shadow Business Podcast offers truth, clarity, and a way to build your business from the deepest foundation possible: all of you.

Collapsing While Hustling for Freedom - Zoe Collins
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Through EFT tapping and intuitive guidance, Zoe helps capable leaders dismantle the subconscious beliefs shaping how they show up in work, money and visibility.
She started her digital consultancy from a really visceral urge to be independent.
She needed autonomy. She needed to work in a way that supported her rather than burning her out. She had the qualifications, the experience, and the technical skills. On paper, she should have been able to build something stable.
But the reality was much harder than she expected.
Every rejection felt personal.
Every quiet month felt threatening.
Every gap in income felt like confirmation of a past I was trying to escape.
She realised she wasn’t just building a business, she was constantly negotiating with this deep fear of instability and recreating the familiar. It was gross.
She was basically collapsing while hustling for freedom and it meant every small business moment carried way more emotional weight than it should have.
A client saying no didn’t just mean “not this project.” It felt like evidence that she might not make it and I wasn't enough etc.
That was the shadow I was dealing with.
On this podcast Zoe shares how she's gotten out of it and how EFT tapping has helped her in the long run.

In February 2026, I was invited to the 500-person Yes Life Summit, where I shared a Yes to Life hypnosis. Inside you will see what's currently blocking you in saying yes to yourself.
