When my business started growing, I was looking for someone to lead intentional, growth oriented conversations with groups of high caliber leaders (like we have here at Path for Growth). Right away, only one name came to mind. My friend and team member Olivia Graham is a great business owner in her own right and has been one of the greatest blessings for our business. Today you get to hear Olivia’s perspective on working with Growth Groups but also her life as a mom, wife and entrepreneur.

I thought a great place to start would be with Olivia’s entrepreneurial story (3:57)

There’s so much talk about ‘calling’, but what I love about your story is that it wasn’t a long-term dream but more of the right next step (6:40)

What are one or two of the lessons you learned while having a full-time job and also trying to get your business up and running? (8:26)

What is the biggest way that leading your business has grown you personally? (10:35)

What’s a problem that seemed insurmountable at first but you’ve grown because you were able to get around it? (12:28)

What advice would you give to people with regard to preparing for when crisis arrives? (15:35)

What was your biggest takeaway from the COVID crisis season? (18:04)

You and your husband, Will, seem to be really enjoying yourselves. What are some things you did to make it enjoyable to live, raise a child and run a business together? (23:25)

Speak to what it looks like to apply intentionality to your time in a healthy way (26:32)

How do you and Will discern who the closest relationships in your life are? (34:26)

You and Will are really focused on shared experiences. Can you speak to where that comes from and what makes the trips you take really valuable? (47:07)

Growth for the sake of growth is dead. But if you’re growing for a bigger purpose, it creates life. What is the role the gospel plays in that mindset shift for you? (56:00)

You lead our Growth Groups at Path for Growth. Can you describe what Growth Groups are and some of the stories that have come from them? (1:02:15)

There are some people that operate well in their groups. What are the things that they’re doing or the qualities they’ve built that make them that type of person? (1:07:23)

The people who have been in business the longest are way more patient than I am. Can you speak to the value of patience in building community? (1:10:07)

You cannot manufacture trust but you can accelerate it. What are things people can do intentionally to accelerate the building of trust? (1:14:12)

What is the biggest thing a community like Growth Groups provides for people? (1:19:19)

Tell us a little about the next Growth Group you’re starting and where people can find you (1:24:36)

Give people three actions they can take to practice personal growth and then the encouragement they need to be able to do the actions (1:29:05)
