Choose Your Own Adventure

Can we take our business seriously and still be playful with it? What does exploration look like when we are seeking to build stability? As I completely upgrade the Holistic Business Academy’s core content, I am reflecting deeply on the foundational understandings of business that drive me and my methodology. I keep coming back to this: There is no One Right Way. Capitalism tells us that our revenue is more important than our joy. My holistic business model tells us that well-being is complex and individualized, and THAT is what I am all about. Ultimately, my business methodology is Choose Your Own Adventure, and that is what I teach in the Holistic Business Academy: critical thinking, intuition building, and timeless strategy. So, as I work to upgrade HBA’s content to be even more clear and more supportive, I want to spend an episode exploring this foundational idea of choice. In this episode, I walk us through the benefits and limiting factors of four distinct business models. I talk about why critical thinking and self-trust are just as important as strategy. I show you how to build a business model that allows for flexibility as you come to better understand your needs. Join me this week to seek adventure, and stay to celebrate my birthday with a magical offer!
