Business is just like having kids. Small business - small problems. Big business - big problems. Yet the idea of dealing with "big problems" shouldn't scare you or worse stop you from growing your business altogether.
The solution for "big problems" becoming small is to grow yourself. The more skilled you are in business and the more emotional capacity you have, the smaller the problems seem. The same way a 10-year-old will not cry over a lost popsicle the same way they did at two.
In this episode, I share with you what it takes (practical tips included) to become a bigger person, a CEO, who can handle more complex problems without stress or overwhelm.

How is that possible? Today's Maggie's Moment explains.

Establishing good habits brings a myriad of benefits that contribute to overall well-being and success. One of the key advantages is the efficiency they bring to daily life, as habits automate tasks, saving time and mental energy.
Moreover, cultivating positive routines enhances discipline and self-control, fostering a sense of empowerment and accomplishment. Good habits also contribute to long-term health and happiness by promoting physical well-being and reducing stress.
Consistency in positive behaviors leads to the development of a strong foundation for personal and professional growth, helping you achieve your goals. Ultimately, the power of good habits lies in their ability to create a positive and sustainable framework for a fulfilling and successful business and life.
In this episode, I share how I establish good habits in my life by sharing a story and the evolution of my morning routine. And with it show you high-level, the framework I use when I help my clients establish their high-performance habits.

In this episode, I sit down with Maria Nenciu, the visionary behind Richvale Consulting, a commercial lease audit company.
Maria kicks things off by sharing the journey of how it all began – the spark that ignited the creation of her business and the passion that fueled its growth. We explore the early years, delving into the challenges and triumphs that shaped Maria's entrepreneurial path, highlighting the evolution of needs, wants, and overall business strategy.

Maria reflects on her December 2023 strategic planning experience, unraveling the A-HA moments that sparked innovation and will lead to her business growth. We explore the shift from day-to-day operations to the benefits of pausing, zooming out, and gaining a broader perspective, transcending the limitations of a mere to-do list.
The podcast unfolds with a glimpse into the future as Maria paints a vivid picture of the business's vision 3-5 years down the road. What aspirations fuel her drive, and how she feels about the exciting journey ahead.
