Staying Solo

Staying Solo: What Every One-Person Business Should Know


Listen Later

What if I told you that the key to a sustainable business (that you don’t want to burn to the ground once a week) ISN’T doing more?

It's about doing LESS — but doing it better.

In this episode, I’m flipping the script on your default “hustle hard” programming and sharing what really matters when growing a service business as a solopreneur. 

Topics discussed in this episode include:

  • How hustle culture makes us think we must be doing more constantly. 

  • What is additive cognitive bias, and how does it impact the choices we make in our business? (You’re doing to love this!) 

  • Why is adding more complexity rarely the right solution?

  • How does the sunk cost fallacy drive us to make poor decisions? 

  • Why traditional growth models fail solopreneurs.

  • The Staying Solo Framework - six areas of focus for your business decisions. 

  • The Staying Solo Squad and why you may want to join us!
