Building a really successful freedom-based business shouldn’t come at the cost of your health + lifestyle. We’ve been conditioned to think that the harder we work, the more money we will make + the better results we will get. Newsflash: it’s actually the complete opposite… and today’s guest - my friend + business mentor, James Wedmore - is going to share strategies, stories and tactics to help you grow your business at any stage with ease. From how James took his business from $2M to $10M in just ONE YEAR, the hard choices he made to unlock massive growth, and how to delegate + build a dream team of A-players TO the critical lessons entrepreneurs at every/any stage of business need to know… and how you can actually do LESS to make MORE money. If you’re a current business owner or aspiring entrepreneur, you don’t want to miss this episode!

Your superpower as a female founder, the REAL FORCE behind our biggest revenue months, truths about burnout, the energetic leaks quietly sabotaging your success, being the breadwinner in your family, and literally SO much more. Pouring from an empty cup has become the new normal for many female founders – the hustle culture mentality + the demands of being a mama and breadwinner in the family only adds pressure and stress… but in order to truly thrive, build a sustainable business, and create harmony personally & professionally, we’ve got to prioritize the different cycles + seasons we go through and understand when to sprint and when to pull back.
