I think you might be confused. You know that when you start a business, you’re not supposed to be “good at the business part”… right? You’re just supposed to be an amazing florist Or artist Or photographer Or have a killer product Be the best YOU in your industry. But the way to make lots of money and still have a life you have time for? That part is just math. There is a process: To scheduling. To budgeting. To goal setting. To delegating. To hiring + firing. To selling. And just like anything else, you need to invest time & money into learning those processes. There is one thing that will keep you from that success though… Your mind drama. I teach women business owners how to sift out the facts of their business from their drama. So you can stop trying to people please your way to success. So you can start saying no to clients that aren’t a good fit. And set policies that create your dream life and business… So you can look at your numbers monthly and not make them mean anything about your self-worth You don’t just need “more clients” Or “more money” Or “more time” You need to decide what you’re creating THIS month and reverse engineer it. And then rinse and repeat. It’s not that hard. Next week I’m enrolling 15 women into a 6 month container where you will go from… “really good at what you do” to Masterful CEO So you can get back to being the person that STARTED the business (A really great coach who loves quirky wallpaper, perhaps 🤔) instead of hustling around feeling bad about not being a born Business savant. You in?

2. What is buffering with productivity?
3. Why you should treat your deadlines like an essay
