Most small business owners I work with would say they started a business for freedom: freedom of time, creative freedom, financial freedom… yet somewhere along the journey we build business that have us chained to our desk instead of out in the sunshine, stressing over unanswered emails instead of playing with our kiddos, and pinching pennies instead of paying ourselves on autopilot. 

Not to mention, 81% of us are doing it all ourselves. We are the marketing department, the accounting department, the visionary and the workerbee. 

Why does this happen? How did we get here? Why do so many influencers, youtube stars and 8 figure earners burn out despite the “success.” 

Today, I’m unpacking those very questions and sharing my 6-part plan to building a business that’s not only life-giving, but also boosts your bottom line.

In This Episode:

This past week I taught a live class with 1,651 small business owners looking for a Financial Fresh Start. Every year around this time, when we open enrollment to my signature course, The Blueprint Model, I am on a high getting to sit in front of small business owners just like you and share my message.

Though most of us did not get into business for the money, it’s easy for the message of success to seep in. That’s why I consider myself a reset specialist and get you back to building the life-giving business of your dreams. Numbers, but with heart.

With so many messages rolling in from attendees that sounded like this:

“After watching this class I feel like I am about to grab back the steering wheel after spinning out of control all my life…. I really can’t wait to get started!”

“Thank you for making me feel less frustrated and scared about my finances.”

“Thank you so much for standing out in a world of chaos and hustle until you drop.”

I asked our podcast producers if we could rearrange the schedule a bit so I could share a snippet of the content with you.
