Welcome back to the Empower Her Business Accelerator podcast! I’m your host, Philippa Channer, and today we’re closing out our September series on revenue streams with a vital topic that every entrepreneur needs to revisit regularly: sustainability.

Over the past few weeks, we’ve uncovered what your revenue streams are, explored ways to diversify them, and even talked about innovating them for greater profitability. But what happens after you’ve done all that? The next step is evaluating whether those revenue streams are actually sustainable over time. This is where the real test begins—because building income is one thing, but ensuring it continues consistently, profitably, and without draining you dry is another story entirely.

Sustainability isn’t just about whether your revenue streams are making money today. It’s about whether they can keep performing tomorrow, next quarter, and years down the line without depleting your energy or resources.

The first step is to audit each revenue stream

Sustainability often comes down to scalability. In other words, can you grow revenue without growing stress?

Not all revenue streams are as solid as they look.

A sustainable business isn’t set-it-and-forget-it—you need to regularly check in. That’s why I recommend a quarterly review.

Finally, sustainability isn’t just financial—it’s personal. Sometimes we hold onto revenue streams because they’re working, not because they align with our long-term goals.

Evaluating sustainability isn’t always glamorous, but it’s the difference between building a hustle and building a legacy. Money matters—but momentum, mental health, and mission matter even more.
