Running a business doesn’t have to mean constant hustle, overwhelm, or insecurity.

In this episode, we’re sharing the biggest mistakes we’ve seen women make at every stage, including a few we’ve learned the hard way - things that waste time, drain energy, or pull us away from what really matters.

We’ll talk about how to work with focus, build healthy rhythms, and create a business that fits your real life.

We’ll cover:

• Trying to sell before you’ve built a real community
• Building your life around your business instead of the other way around
• Copying what works for someone else instead of finding what fits you
• Believing God will “just make it happen” instead of learning a real strategy
• Forgetting that your capacity changes with your season

Business doesn’t have to feel like a mystery. There are three simple building blocks every entrepreneur needs to embrace: content, community, and conversion.

Each works together to grow your business, and if one is missing, you’ll stall.

In this episode, we’ll explain what they are, how they connect, and why this simple framework is enough to grow with confidence.

We’ll cover:

• Why most women focus too much on one “C” and get stuck
• What content actually needs to do (hint: not perfection)
• How community builds trust and loyalty beyond algorithms
• Why conversion isn’t sleazy ( it’s serving people well)
