    The Question I Asked Myself That Changed Everything

    Sometimes the biggest breakthroughs come from a single question. In this episode, I’m sharing the question I asked myself that completely shifted my mindset, my business, and how I show up as a mom CEO.

    Stop Building Offers That Burn You Out: How to Test for Scalability Before You Sell

    Here’s the truth: if you’re stressed and burned out in your business, you built it that way. And while that might sting a little, it’s also the best news — because if your choices created it, your choices can change it. In this episode, I’m breaking down how to build a business that’s not just profitable, but sustainable. One that actually supports your life instead of consuming it. We’re getting into: • The difference between profitable and scalable offers • Why “hard work” isn’t the same as self-sacrifice • How to test your offers for sustainability before you sell them • The three non-negotiables every offer needs • What to do when the math isn’t mathing Because here’s the thing: you can’t scale something that drains you. You can’t grow what you secretly resent. And you can’t build long-term success on a foundation of burnout. If you’re craving a business that supports your ambition and your wellbeing, I’ve got something coming for you. It’s for the woman who’s scaling, succeeding, and still wants more — but refuses to do it at the cost of her peace, marriage, or identity outside her business. Join the waitlist to be the first to know when doors open.  Chapters: 00:00 Owning Responsibility for Where You Are 02:24 The Line Between Hard Work and Self-Sacrifice 04:19 Misalignment, Burnout, and the Real Cost of Overworking 05:18 Profitability vs. Scalability 08:17 The Three Non-Negotiables Every Offer Needs 12:48 The Scalability Checklist 14:27 When the Math Isn’t Mathing 17:02 Boundaries, Capacity, and Protecting Your Energy 20:31 Restructuring What’s Draining You 23:18 Building Wealth That Actually Feels Good #SustainableSuccess #WomenEntrepreneurs #AlignedBusiness #BusinessWithoutBurnout #WomenInBusiness #Leadership #CEOCoach #ScalableBusiness #EntrepreneurMindset #IntentionalGrowth #WorkLifeAlignment #HighAchievingWomen #PurposeDrivenBusiness #BusinessStrategy #FemaleEntrepreneurs

    Your Values Are Your Differentiator: How to Build a Brand Story That Actually Sticks

    So many women in business get caught up in the shiny things — the perfect branding, the polished visuals, the clever tagline. And while those matter, they’re not what makes your business stand out. Your values are. In a world full of options and constant noise, your values are what help your brand cut through — they’re the reason the right clients feel instantly connected to you. When you understand what you stand for and how it shows up in your work, you create a business that’s not only profitable but deeply fulfilling. In this episode, we’ll dive into: • Why your values are the foundation of sustainable, aligned growth • How misalignment in your values leads to frustration and burnout • The connection between your personal values and your most profitable clients • How to identify your “operating system” as a CEO and live it through your business • A step-by-step process to turn your values into brand stories that attract your ideal clients Your values are more than words on your website — they’re what transform your business from another option into the obvious choice. And if you’re ready to scale a business that’s not just bigger but truer to who you are, that’s exactly why I’m building The Founder’s Boardroom — a mastermind for women who are already winning but know they can’t (and don’t want to) do it alone. Join the waitlist to be the first to know when doors open. Because where you’re going requires support — and a boardroom of women who get it.

    If You Can’t Describe Your Client’s Tuesday Afternoon, You Don’t Know Them Well Enough

    If your marketing isn’t converting, this might sting a little — but it’s the truth: you don’t know your people as deeply as you think you do. For years, surface-level marketing worked. You could describe your audience by age, income, and location and still see results. But those days are gone. The market is louder, smarter, and more saturated — and buyers are craving connection, not clichés. If you can’t describe what your ideal client is thinking on a random Tuesday afternoon — what’s stressing her out, what she dreams of, what keeps her up at night — then your message won’t land. Because people don’t buy products. They buy solutions to the problems they’re living through right now. In this episode, I’ll walk you through: • Why surface-level demographics no longer drive sales • How to identify your client’s beliefs, fears, and daily thought patterns • The emotional and psychological depth your marketing needs to actually connect • What truly makes your brand stand out in a crowded space • How to shift from information-based messaging to empathy-driven storytelling This episode is a reminder that real marketing isn’t about algorithms — it’s about understanding humans. And if you’re ready to surround yourself with women who get it — who are building businesses that grow without sacrificing what matters most — that’s exactly why I’m building The Founder’s Boardroom. It’s a mastermind for women who are already winning but know they can’t (and don’t want to) do it alone. Join the waitlist here to be the first to know when doors open. Chapters: 00:00 The Importance of Online Presence 03:58 Understanding Marketing Saturation 06:47 The Shift from Demographics to Psychographics 12:27 The Day in the Life Exercise 17:03 Bridging the Gap: Current vs. Desired Reality 21:31 Understanding Buyer Behavior 25:01 A New Opportunity for Women Entrepreneurs Keywords:#BusinessPodcast #WomenEntrepreneurs #MomCEO #MarketingStrategy #RevenueGrowth #EntrepreneurPodcast #ScaleYourBusiness #WorkLessEarnMore #WomenInBusiness #CEO

    How To Multiply Your Revenue

    There’s nothing more draining than pouring your heart into your business and still feeling stuck at the same revenue month after month. Deep down, you know you’re meant for more. One of my clients stayed stuck at $20K months for years. After a few key shifts, she hit her first $100K month — with $70K in profit — while working less than half the hours. This is proof: scaling doesn’t require more hustle, it requires an aligned strategy. In this episode, I’m sharing the exact levers that will help you break through plateaus and grow sustainably. Here’s what we dive into: Why hitting a plateau in business doesn’t mean you’re failing — and why it’s actually a sign you’re ready for something bigger The three key levers that will multiply your revenue faster than anything else: pricing, conversions, and scaling what already works How to recognize where you’re the bottleneck and shift into systems, processes, and team support that free you to lead Why scaling your revenue isn’t about adding more to your plate — it’s about doing less, better How to use data to make smarter business decisions instead of constantly reinventing the wheel Wanting to multiply your revenue isn’t selfish—it’s about impact, legacy, and creating a life that overflows for both your family and business. If you’re ready to stop spinning your wheels and grow your sales sustainably, join me inside Multiply, my 10-week sales accelerator for service-based business owners.
