Hello Reader, After
I've learned some expensive yet valuable lessons about building a business. The principles of business building are simple and timeless:
Ideally, this involves doing work you:
While it sounds simple, it's actually really hard to have all these converge at the right time and right place in your life. There are times you'll have one but not the other. Which means you have to make trade-offs. The key is to know what matters enough to keep pushing through for, and what you're willing to walk away from. Because while you can have anything you want, you may not get everything you want at the time you want it. I see a lot of people who want the successful business, but aren't willing to do what it takes - including the old me. Being clear about what truly matters to you, and what you're willing to do for it makes taking action and decision making easy. You know what you're willing to trade off, and what to walk away from, no matter how fantastic an opportunity it seems to you. This is true wisdom, freedom and power. Today, I'm clear about what I want, what I'm willing and not willing to do for it. And that brings me peace of mind, a lot more gratitude and way more joy. Business building is a long term endeavour. You must make it enjoyable to stay the course and persist through the tough times. I didn't arrive to this place overnight. It took >$200k and 10 years of life and business experience to get here.

This week’s podcast was a personal one. I talked about the moment I realised my 'stable' corporate job was not safety and what I’ve learned after almost 30 years in HR about real financial security for women.

Have you ever written a LinkedIn post, felt good about it, then suddenly your chest tightens, your mind races, and you quietly close the app? You tell yourself, 'This is silly. It’s just LinkedIn.' But your body feels like you’re about to step on stage in front of 10,000 people. In this week’s podcast episode, I break down why that happens and what you can do about it.
