Anxiously Ambitious
Hi! I’m Netty, three-time founder, mom, and your host of Anxiously Ambitious. Welcome to the podcast where we embrace imperfection, honour our humanity, and prove you don’t have to have your sh*t together to build something amazing.
This is for my fellow deep feelers, sensitive souls, and anxious go-getters trying to grow without completely losing it. Together, we’ll dive into the messiness of ambition, how to balance big dreams with actual self-care (hint: it’s not easy, but it’s worth it) and how to thrive without sacrificing your sanity.
Every week, I bring you honest conversations with entrepreneurs, experts, and other beautifully flawed humans who’ve walked this path. We’ll share real stories, practical advice, and maybe even a few laughs, all to help you build a business and a life that feel like you.
If this sounds like your kind of space, hit follow and join me as we rewrite what success looks like: messy, meaningful, and entirely your own.

Carly Burr: Living Offline in a Social Media World
Do you think you could ever quit social media for good? Well my amazing guest, Carly Burr, has been living life offline- specifically without social media, for over 9 years! Feeling called to share her journey only on youtube and through her podcast of how she ultimately decided to leave, she encourages others to scroll less and live more! As business owners and entrepreneurs, it can feel like you “have” to be online in order to be successful and can often feel like a stressful chore, but even choosing to spend less time there and finding a balance or platform that truly aligns with you can change your whole outlook. Join us as we dive deep into this powerful conversation on comparison, social media addiction, steps you can take to move offline and more!
What We’ll Cover:
Creating Space: Why Carly left social media, losing a sense of intuition and what offline life feels like.
Finding Your Path: Different approaches to having a successful business while not being on social media.
Building Resistance and Confidence: Some first simple steps you can take if you feel like you're addicted and want to confront life offline.
Key Takeaways:
• There is no right or wrong way, but taking time to think more deeply about your intentions being online, perhaps changing how you show up and using it as a tool for your business.
• Embrace your awareness and don’t feel guilty about it! You are not alone in wanting to change, go offline and connect with others in a different way.
• Getting off social media can bring a new sense of identity, peace, joy and closeness in relationships.
