    52: Launch to Learn – Why Your First Offer Isn’t Supposed to Be Perfect

    If you’re building an online business and waiting for your first offer to be completely finished before launching, this episode will challenge that belief. In this episode, Lydia shares the story of her very first launch, including how she sold her course before it was fully built, created a five-day challenge with zero email subscribers, grew her list from scratch, and welcomed 95 students into her first cohort. She explains why launching live shortened her learning curve, how real-time feedback strengthened her offer, and why cohort-style experiences are so powerful for digital entrepreneurs today. This conversation is part of the 21-day From Purpose to Impact series and is designed to help you move from perfectionism to progress as you build your digital offers. That’s how purpose turns into impact. In this episode, Lydia covers: • Why your first digital offer is not supposed to be perfect • How launching before something is fully built creates clarity • How a free five-day challenge helped grow her email list from zero • What she learned from welcoming 95 students into her first cohort • Why cohort-style programs create powerful feedback and transformation • How launching to learn builds sustainable momentum in your online business Reflection If you stopped waiting for perfection, what could you launch in the next 30 days? What would you learn if you allowed real people to walk through it with you? Follow the podcast This is Day 5 of a 21-day series.

    51: You Don’t Need the Whole Plan to Take the First Step

    If you’ve been waiting to feel clear before moving forward in your business, this episode speaks directly to that hesitation. In this episode, Lydia answers a listener question about long-term planning and explains why creating "a perfect plan" isn’t what actually creates momentum. She breaks down the assumption that clarity comes from having everything mapped out, and shares how real progress is made by choosing one clear priority and taking action. Drawing from her own business journey and a recent conversation in her local entrepreneur community, Lydia introduces a simple but powerful way to think about prioritization, identifying which responsibilities truly matter right now and which ones can wait. This conversation is part of the 21-day From Purpose to Impact series and is designed to help digital entrepreneurs stop waiting for certainty and start taking the next right step. That’s how purpose turns into impact. In this episode, Lydia covers: • Why a "perfect plan" doesn’t create clarity or momentum  • The assumption that planning equals progress  • How real clarity is created through action  • A practical way to prioritize what matters most right now  • Why focus, not certainty, is what actually moves your business forward Reflection What is the one priority in your business that truly needs your attention right now? What can wait without causing real harm? Follow the podcast This is Day 4 of a 21-day series. Follow or subscribe to Your Online Business Mentor so you don’t miss the conversations ahead.

    50: Overwhelm Isn’t About Time, It’s About Focus

    If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed in your business, this episode offers a powerful reframe. In this episode, Lydia shares why overwhelm is one of the most common challenges entrepreneurs face and why it usually has nothing to do with time management. Drawing from her own six-year journey, she explains how trying to do too many things, be in too many places, and pursue too many goals at once leads to feeling scattered and stuck. Lydia introduces a simple framework using the metaphor of fire, explaining the three elements every business needs to create momentum: fuel, oxygen, and heat. She breaks down how your offer, lead generation, and marketing strategy work together, and why focusing on one priority at a time is often the fastest way forward. This conversation is part of the 21-day From Purpose to Impact series and is designed to help digital entrepreneurs move out of overwhelm and into intentional, focused action. That’s how purpose turns into impact. In this episode, Lydia covers: • Why overwhelm is usually a focus problem, not a time problem  • How trying to do everything at once keeps entrepreneurs stuck  • The three elements every business needs to create momentum  • Why you can’t focus on your offer, leads, and marketing all at the same time  • How choosing one priority creates clarity and forward movement Reflection What is the one area of your business that needs your focus right now? What would need to pause in order for that one thing to move forward? Follow the podcast This is Day 3 of a 21-day series.

    49: The Real Reason You're Procrastinating On Your Business

    If you’ve been procrastinating on your business and telling yourself it’s a motivation or discipline issue, this episode offers a different perspective. In this episode, Lydia explores why procrastination is rarely about laziness or lack of follow-through, and is more often rooted in fear. Specifically, fear of failure and FOWOT, Fear Of What Others Think. Drawing from her own experience and listener-submitted questions, Lydia breaks down how these fears show up in everyday business decisions, how they quietly delay launches and visibility, and what it actually takes to move forward anyway. This conversation is part of the 21-day From Purpose to Impact series and is designed to help digital entrepreneurs stop hesitating and start taking honest action, even when fear is present. That’s how purpose turns into impact. In this episode, Lydia covers: • Why procrastination is usually a symptom, not the real problem  • The difference between fear of failure and fear of visibility  • What FOWOT, Fear Of What Others Think, really looks like in business  • Why procrastination feels protective but creates long-term stuckness  • How imperfect action builds confidence and momentum Reflection What are you more afraid of right now, failing quietly or being seen trying? And what would change if you just took one small step forward anyway? Follow the podcast This is Day 2 of a 21-day series.

    This episode marks the beginning of a new chapter for the podcast and the start of a 21-day series called From Purpose to Impact. In this first episode, Lydia shares why she decided to reboot the show, looks back on nearly six years of business ownership, and explains why she created this series to help digital entrepreneurs stop hesitating and start moving forward.

    47: Why Your Course Isn’t Selling (and What’s Working Now)

    If your course sales have slowed down or your evergreen programs aren’t converting like they used to, you’re not alone. In this episode, I share why the online education space has shifted from an information economy to a trust and transformation economy and how you can adapt your offers to thrive in 2025 and beyond. You’ll learn why traditional evergreen models are struggling, what’s behind the current trust recession, and how cohort-style experiences are helping course creators, coaches, and membership owners boost conversions, increase engagement, and actually help their students finish what they start. This increased focus led to a 50% increase in business revenue in 2025, and in this episode, I share key strategies that have helped me create results-driven offers that sell. You’ll Learn: What the “trust recession” is and how it’s impacting digital entrepreneursWhy AI has changed how people buy and what to do about itThe difference between selling information and selling transformationHow to design a cohort-style course or membership that converts and delivers resultsWhy simplifying your framework helps students take action (and actually finish!)The phrases and positioning shifts that make your offer stand out todayHow I increased my business revenue by 50% this year through live, community-driven experiencesThe key to turning your expertise into a clear, profitable offer that builds trust“AI can replicate information, but it can’t replicate transformation.
