Ep 339: Planned Profit Loss + How To Feel Safe When Money Isn't Flowing In


Listen Later

In this episode I want to talk to you about planned profit loss and how to feel safe when money ISN'T flowing in. When it comes to the entrepreneurial world, we see so many examples of people who are doubling, tripling and quadrupling their revenue year after year - and this creates the expectation that many should always be flowing in. And that certainly hasn't been the reality for me!

So in the episode I want to share a breakdown of my revenue growth over the years so that you can see what it looks like for the other 98% of entrepreneurs who aren't quantum leaping. And why that's normal and also completely safe.

Tune in as I share a breakdown of my business figures from 2018 to now - as well as why I had a period of planned profit loss in 2021 - so that you can feel emotionally safe when money isn't flowing in, rather than freaking the hell out.

In This Episode You'll Learn:

  • A breakdown of my business revenue and expenses from 2018 to now
  • How to tell when planned profit loss is self-sabotage versus when it's not
  • Why I felt ashamed that my business wasn't making more money
  • How my business savings have helped me make long-term decisions
