The Called to Elevate Podcast with Becca Schmidt

“How should I grow my business?” It’s the question I hear most as a business strategist, and I can’t answer it until I know where you want to go.In Episode 2 of The Called to Elevate Podcast, I’m talking about building an aligned business: one that supports the life you actually want to live. Because I believe burnout comes from misalignment.In this episode:✦ The question to answer before you decide how to grow: what’s your end game?✦ Three different paths: grow to exit, stay a solopreneur, or build a team that runs it✦ Why I built my first company to sell, and why that isn’t the path for everyone✦ What alignment really means: doing more of the work that lights you up✦ How your mission, vision and values become your compass for every decision✦ The aligned decision that saved one of my clients six figures✦ Using your values to hire and to handle tough employee situationsWhen you know which direction you’re rowing, you’re far more likely to get the boat there.Want to grow your business but not sure where to start?
