    8: Integration Season: Solidifying Growth for Longevity

    Integration Season is where growth becomes sustainable. Instead of chasing the next big thing, this season is about consolidating what you’ve built. Strengthening your systems, refining your offers, and stepping fully into the leader you’ve become. In this episode of Built to Flow, I explain what Integration is (and isn’t), how to recognize when you’re in it, and the core focus areas to work on so your growth doesn’t just happen, it lasts.

    Foundations 3: How to Identify Your Current Business Season

    Ever wonder why you’re doing all the right things in business—posting consistently, networking, pushing for growth—yet something still feels off? The problem isn’t always your strategy.

    Foundations 2: Why Your Business Needs Seasons

    Most business advice is built on the myth of linear growth: always be scaling, always be visible, always do more. But the truth is—growth isn’t constant, it’s seasonal. In this second episode of the Foundations Series of Built to Flow, Heather Crabtree breaks down why every business needs seasons of both growth and rest—and what happens when you ignore them. Heather introduces the four business seasons of the Built to Flow™ Framework—Expansion, Integration, Contraction, and Recalibration—and shows why each one serves a vital purpose. You’ll see how honoring your season gives you clarity, focus, and permission to lead differently. Because your business isn’t broken if you’re not always scaling—you’re just in a different season. IMPACT POINTS Why linear growth is a myth—and how it leaves out rhythm, rest, and the realities of your life.The four business seasons explained—Expansion, Integration, Contraction, and Recalibration—and the unique role each one plays.Why seasons matter—from clarity and sustainability to leading with presence and honoring your true capacity.Loved the episode?
