It sounds weird and yet it works, as all the best ways work here. This conversation is actually not that weird when you hear the thinking behind it.

One could say that it appears unset, unsettled, and unready to have confidence in what we’re growing with you here.

In the past you would have been more right than you think, but not today.

Today we meet you with a sound and solid set of skills, knowledge, and experience in solo business ways and days, especially in the thinking behind said days and ways.

Today we say that while the Solo Business Projects work well as they are, they are a part of something bigger.

Each Solo Business Project is about the outcome as equally (if not more) as the processing while navigating the process.

While mapping out thinking in our upcoming Q2 Campaign, we realised there was still a little to large-a leap for you to connect what you’re doing and where it fits in which means the 🧠 load is not light enough for you by our standard standards.

for now…

For now, feel free to familiarise yourself with the Solo Business Projects page, you can even sign up to the ‘Let me know first’ List.

Or just keep in the loop as you have been doing by listening here. Enjoy.

Sharing a super normal solo business moment that we’ve prevented from growing into a molehill or mountain to be more doable. This conversation is for when you want an example of how you can work with your own thinking to get in and out of overwhelm and on your way to getting it done. Enjoy.

In this conversation we’re sharing the days following working with our trusted specialist. This experience is shared for the pure purpose of a normal norm in what we have experienced in knowing that some things are only known when they’re known.

Looking through our SBO lens, we share the sense of finding our own way it can work with the hope, trust, and belief that one or more parts ring true for you in your ways and days. Enjoy.

In the past, the moment before the meeting of working with a specialist in our business has felt like going to the dentist. Those feels of being questioned and challenged on our day-to-day behaviours 😝

Not today 🥳

Today, we’re meeting with a fellow Solo Business specialist who’s helping us to do something specific (one of those things out of our wheelhouse).

In this conversation we (specifically Kathy through the lenses of the SBO and SBD) share a little insight into the feels of the feels of having all the necessary data to inform, influence, and inspire our direction, designs, and decisions.

Also, we’re letting you in on a new knowing of how growing with the Solo Business Project experience (as the creator) is doing what we set out to do, but better because it’s working in a way that we didn’t know until now. Enjoy.

In this conversation we share a moment of a moment that has made us (really) look at the way we’re working in Little Language Matters*. Speaking from the lens of the Solo Business Owner (SBO), we share a sense of how what one could reasonably assume is the bread and butter of a business but (totally) blindsided us (specifically me, Kathy) this week 😝

Being only ourselves in a Solo Business means we’re without a buffer, and the solo business roles’ lenses are there for us to make sense, not others. So, with no buffer and without blame, we’ve weathered “the work” that needed to be done in the person part of the business, and we’re all the better for it on the other side.

We’ve chosen to share this as an example, knowing it’s likely to ring true for some of you too. Enjoy.

Here you’re welcome to sit in on our start of the week Solo Business round table where we share who’s up to what so that everyone’s aware of what’s happening where. We also open up the fixed footprint to ask an ask for additional resources as needed. The purpose of sharing aloud what’s already a normal norm in our Solo Business (Little Language Matters*) is to offer example on example on what it can look like to (actually) wear many hats work with different lenses (aka Business Roles) in Solo Business. Enjoy.

While we’ve come a long way from our stumbling start in the podcast (aka finding our voice), the podcast still requires more resources than we would like to have as part of our Solo Business design so that we can keep playing our part in resourcing Solo Business — so we keep iterating.

We’re trialling a familiar format of a whole of business meeting, and instead of just bringing you the view from one Solo Business role, we’re letting you in our a weekly Solo Business roundtable. Enjoy.

In this conversation we look through the lens of the Solo Business Director (SBD) to move closer to sharing a little more detail, specifically, the primary focus of the Solo Business Q1 (spoiler, it’s all about setting up the year from here!) and what we will be releasing across the year to (actually) resource Solo Business (another spoiler, we’re working with the Business Model to make do more of the work for you and your business!). Enjoy.

Meeting with our Little Language Matters* Solo Business Owner (SBO) lens, we share a little look at the vibe we’ve been picking up as the calendar clicked over from Jan to Feb. In short, the vibe has a growing sense of knowing where the business is going. Enjoy.
