 In this episode of UNComplicating Business, we're talking about a question I was asked in a FB group a few months ago and have been thinking about ever since. The question was 'What are three things every business owner needs to succeed?' In this episode I'm going to share my three must-haves as well as one particular don't-need. Based on the conversation around this I saw on FB, my must-haves are a little different from most, so listen in to find out how ours match up OR if I can convince you to adopt one of the must-haves from my list into yours!

In this episode of Uncomplicating Business, we’re talking about what I think of as an often overlooked topic in the entrepreneurial world: creating a workday that actually fits your life.

Transitioning from a traditional job, or from teaching to entrepreneurship can make it hard to figure out how to structure our days in a way that actually serves the life AND work we’re doing at the same time.

Today I’m sharing five questions to help you uncover your unique workday needs while helping you step away from conventional 9-to-5 expectations. We’ll assess what you *really* need from your day, challenge assumptions about work is ‘supposed’ to look like, and design a schedule that serves you rather than constraining you.

Whether you thrive in structure or prefer every day to look different, this episode is packed with practical tips to help you take control of your time and create a workday that WORKS for you!

Taking credit for our own wins can be... hard.

It seems simple enough to say 'yes, that was me, I'm awesome' but in reality, how often do you really DO just that?

How often do you allow yourself to take FULL credit for the things that are working, even if they aren't working perfectly?

In this episode of the UNComplicating Business podcast, we dive into the whys and hows of taking credit for your achievements AND how doing so can help both your motivation and your growth. 

I'm sharing practical strategies for embracing your accomplishments and wins WITHOUT feeling like you're bragging, showing off, or being too much (because you know that's at least part of what gets in the way for ALL of us!).

 Clarity is this magical thing that we feel like we have to FIND. It feels like something we have to search high and low for, and that we can't DO any of the things we want to do without. Because if we start and we're unclear, well... we might do something wrong, we might take a wrong turn, we might confuse people and that's bad, right? Well. Here's the thing. We DO need clarity... but the key to finding it is different than we think it is - and it comes in a different part of the process of growing a business than we think it does. It ALSO involves maybe a few wrong turns... but actually, they're right turns, we just didn't know it yet (we find that out once we HAVE clarity, omg...). So, how does this finding clarity thing ACTUALLY work? It's not complicated, it's just different than the way you're doing it right now...

We all hear the same advice all the time - 'celebrate more! The more you celebrate the better!' and it sounds GREAT. But also, HOW do you actually do that? Like, seriously. How do you celebrate success, even AHEAD of time, and also in a way that feels like you? How do you celebrate when you aren't sure if you're actually allowed to be celebrating yet or when you're not entirely sure you *feel* like you deserve to celebrate? This week we're talking about ALL of this AND also simple, effective, uncomplicated ways to celebrate that you can use today. Listen on for all the goodness!
