    99. Should I Burn It All Down, Pivot or Persist?

    At what point should you walk away?

    When you’ve been running a studio for some time –
    it’s only human nature to have the feelings of the highest of highs and the lowest of lows…and I’m no exception.

    There were multiple times during my 30 years when I was exhausted, felt defeated, didn’t want to hear from another
    parent, didn’t want to justify why I had to increase class prices or change the timetable, and didn’t want to have to look for a new teacher as one of my great ones was moving on…even the hard slog of coming back after covid…often questioning is all this worth it?

    In this episode, I give you some questions to ask yourself to help clarify if you should keep going or consider moving on…

    97. The Key Differences Between Scaling And Growing Your Studio

    Growth is about getting bigger or adding more, while scaling is about optimising and streamlining, so being more strategic.

    It's about refinement, profitability & sustainability and not just adding more all the time.

    You are already busy and overworked, so how can you keep growing and not add to your workload? The answer is to scale.

    In this episode, I tell you when, how, and what you need to do to get started.

    96. True Success Comes Back to This One Thing...

    I recently spoke at the Victorian Dance Festival as part of a Business Bootcamp panel.

    We were asked to share what we believe to be the 1 secret to success...

    Success means different things to each of us, and I believe many things contribute to making anyone successful - but as I made a list, I kept circling back to this one thing, which I shared on this episode of the podcast.

    I hope you enjoy!

TheDancingHouseMama ,

A generous heart to help

As a studio owner and avid learner, I value any insight from someone who’s created a legacy business and is sharing their insight from their own experiences. From the very first episode you can tell Jens heart is to serve generously to her colleagues all over the world. I especially like her interviews as they are genuine conversations where she pulls nuggets out of the guests that we all want hear about - professionally and personally. I leave each episode with something to consider, implement or want to learn more about. Thank you Jen!
