Which Discomfort Will You Choose?

As a CEO of your business, you will find yourself faced with making some hard decisions. You’ll also start to notice, there is often discomfort no matter which choice you make.

You’ve delegated most of the easy decisions and now the ones that escalate to you are often the tough ones, the not so straightforward decisions between two options that both feel uncomfortable.

When facing these types of decisions, there are a lot of factors to consider and that’s what we dive into, in this week’s episode.

In This Episode You’ll Learn:

• 3 perspectives when making difficult decisions
• Why it’s important to define your vision, mission and values and how this plays a part in making those decisions
• What to look for in someone you lean on for decision support.

Building Your Business With the End In Mind

For most of us, we started our business so we can do more of the things we love, both inside and outside of the business. 

I know for me, one of the things I love is having an impact. So, when I heard the middle school needed a cheerleading coach, I jumped at the chance. A chance to help these girls with not only cheer, but mindset and leadership skills.

I knew I’d be able to take on this opportunity because I built my business with the end in mind. I built it in a way that has allowed me to shorten my workday by 2 hours each day so that I can attend daily practice. 

I intentionally built my business with systems and structures in place so that I can step away sometimes. So that I can spend more time with family, take care of myself, enjoy new hobbies, and give back to my community.

But building a business that gives you freedom must be done intentionally, and doesn’t happen when you’re simply going through the motions of business. 

In This Episode You’ll Learn:

• Why you need to build your business WHILE working your ideal schedule
• The signs of an entrepreneur going through the motions
• 5 P’s to show up every day like it’s game day

Why You Shouldn’t Rush Success

I’m so excited to be back on the podcast  after a much needed break. I took some time off to spend time with family, train new team members and to get ready for all the exciting things I’m bringing you in this next season of business.

As I slowed down, it became more evident to me how we sometimes rush success and the damage that can do. Sometimes we find ourselves prioritizing speed above everything else - sustainability, team well-being, and scalability.

There will always be times in our business where we’ll need to slow down, whether it’s for personal reasons, intentional or unintentional, or to take time off to accomplish a big goal. But have you ever noticed when you take that time, you still feel like you need to hurry up? Like we need to rush to be successful?

I have an unpopular opinion - If you slow down, it will actually speed up your results.

In This Episode You’ll Learn:

• The 4 signs that you’re rushing success
• How to slow down to speed up results
• How short-term decisions can slow down success

When was the last time you took an unplugged vacation?

As business owners, it can be hard to get away, to completely unplug from our business, but it’s definitely necessary.

When this episode airs, I’ll be prepping for a week away to completely unplug, knowing my team will be able to run the business without me.

This didn’t happen overnight and I didn’t always have a team to run things when I was away. But I still made sure to unplug from time to time. It’s so important for us as business owners to rest and rejuvenate.

In fact, we’re taking a 2 month break from this podcast while we unplug for a bit to come back with some exciting new stuff in the fall just for you!

If you haven’t taken some time off recently, plan some time right now using the steps I teach you in this episode.

In This Episode You’ll Learn:

• The difference between unplugged and on hold
• How it’s possible for me to step away while my team runs the business for me
• What I do before, during and after time off

What Are You Attached To and What Do You Need To Let Go Of?

I have a different type of analogy for you today, but hear me out. 

As we were shopping for a leash for our new puppy (Oakley, who is the cutest thing ever), it made me think about how this leash will keep him attached to us so we can keep him safe. Which is a good thing when you’re a puppy. But not a business owner.

We teather ourselves to things, ideas, feelings, that keep us from growing.

We say we want freedom but we end up attaching ourselves to things that make us feel safe (and ultimately keep us from getting what we really want). 

Today I want you to ask yourself, “what do I need to let go of in order to scale my business?”. 

 In This Episode You’ll Learn:

• How to detach from your leashes and take calculated risks
• The 5 things you might be attached to that are holding you back
• What will happen if you can’t let go

Are you willing to enjoy today at the cost of tomorrow?

In high school, I was a cross country runner and little did I know it then, but the lessons I learned have served me well in life and business.

I learned you can either be one of those people that sprints right out of the gate, or one who plays the long game by pacing yourself.

If you’re a sprinter trying to play the long game, you’ll eventually wear yourself out. Pacing allows you to stay focused on the big picture and make it to the end.

 In This Episode You’ll Learn:

• The impact of short vs. long-term thinking in business
• Why long-term thinking is your best short-term strategy
• What to do if you've been trying to scale your business with a short-term mindset

Do you have 7 figure desirability?

The level of your desirability to hit 7 figures will affect the level of your business growth.

Let me say that again for those of you in the back.

If you don’t have an unwavering belief that you’ll hit 7 figures in your business, you probably won’t. Usually when you want something bad enough, you’ll do whatever it takes to get it. When it comes to money, we sometimes have a resistance level that keeps us from fully believing we’re capable or deserving.

If you don’t 100% believe you’ll hit the 7 figure mark in your business, this podcast is for you. Listen while I reveal the 3 things you need to have in place before you can hit those magical 7 figures.

It’s also imperative that you surround yourself with others that have a 7 figure vision.

In This Episode You’ll Learn:

• You might be someone who wants to hit 7 figures in their business, but just doesn’t know it yet
• How 7 figures looks different for everyone
• Why it’s important to lean into any resistance you feel towards hitting a 7 figure goal
• The 3 things you need in order to build 7 figure desirability
