đź’ˇ Episode Summary
Welcome to the first episode of The Lighthouse Sessions — a soft beacon for the brilliant but overwhelmed. In this opening episode, we walk with you through the fog and introduce The Pharos Effect, a soulful alternative to hustle culture and misaligned strategy. This isn’t a blueprint. It’s a rhythm. If you’ve ever asked, “Why does this still feel hard, even though I’m doing all the right things?” — this episode was made for you.
🛟 In This Episode, we explore:
✨ The Lighthouse Metaphor – Why your business should be a beacon, not a burden
✨ The Three Perils – Fogbound, Drifting, and Storm Tossed: the hidden patterns behind your exhaustion
✨ The ALICE Cycle – A 5-stage rhythm for growth that honors your intuition
✨ The Upward Spiral – Why growth is a rhythm, not a ladder
✨ The Invitation – A gentle call to return to yourself, your vision, and your next aligned step
🧠Designed for Founders Like You. This episode is crafted with “Alex Rivers” in mind: Alex is a fictional character who personifies the typical entrepreneur: Visionary. Brilliant. Neurodivergent. Intuitive. Someone who doesn’t need another guru — just a rhythm that feels like home.
