How To Tell If Your Business is Profitable Enough

Most days, it feels like you’re running two full-time jobs — CEO and mom — and neither one ever really turns off. And while you’re putting in the effort, pouring into clients, and showing up for your family, you can still find yourself wondering… is all this actually worth it?

The truth? It’s not about how much revenue you’re bringing in. It’s about how much you’re keeping. Because revenue might look impressive, but profit is what gives you peace.

In this episode of The Mom Founders Table, we’re breaking down how to know if your business is actually profitable enough. Because chasing big revenue numbers means nothing if you’re left exhausted, underpaid, and stretched too thin.

We’ll talk about:

• The difference between revenue and profit (and why profit is your sanity)
  

• A simple 3-question audit to check your margins, pay, and recurring income
  

• Common profit-killers like overdelivery, underpricing, and unused expenses
  

• How to pay yourself consistently (yes, even when business feels unpredictable)
  

This isn’t about hustling harder. It’s about building a business that truly supports your life — not drains it.
