In my podcast episodes, I have been celebrating our successes and talking about how we've hit great numbers and how we've been scaling. But something I don't think I've been talking about enough, is the behind the scenes of my business and the mistakes that we have made. Today, I'm going to tell you some of my most memorable mistakes that I've made in business, and what you can learn from them. 

What You’ll Learn:

- Why you need to think about what’s going on in your life before planning any launches

- How trying to do too many projects in one go impacts your business, your energy and your team

- How multiple launches can be a trap for your business 

Nearly three years after starting this business, we've hit seven figures, we hit 100k months, but we still make mistakes and I'm sure we will make more of them along the way. But the biggest thing is to learn from the mistakes that you make, and look at how you can keep improving everything you're doing to prevent those mistakes happening again.

Today, I'll answer a question I get asked a lot: what is it like to scale a business while being a full-time mom? The day I found out I was pregnant, I realised my working routine wouldn't allow me to be a present mother, and as going back to corporate wasn't an option, I knew I had to make some drastic changes. In this episode, I'll take you through the process of how I created space for business growth without taking a second from quality time with my little man. 

What You Will Learn In This Episode:

- One-on-one client sessions are not indispensable to grow and scale a business

- Sales calls are not the only way to sell

- The importance of hiring talent to free our time and multiply our online presence 

- How to create time by batching content and planning strategies months ahead

- The multiple benefits of making time to take care of ourselves

- Why it is not a good idea to get back to work immediately after giving birth

- How to be compassionate with ourselves and remove the guilt from taking days off to take care of our little ones

Being a mom is a full-time job and it is a lot harder than running a business. So if you can raise a child, you can definitely run a successful business. You need to focus on being organised, build a team that you can rely on, and most importantly, create the time and invest in your self-care.

Luckily, I didn’t. Instead I learned valuable lessons from those experiences, and today I'm going to take you through some of the biggest reasons why launches fail.

What You’ll Learn:

I shared with you the three main reasons why launches fail, so you can make sure you're not making these mistakes. As you begin to rectify these, you are going to see better results in your launches. But just a reminder, if you have had a failed launch, don't give up. Evaluate, learn from it and improve.

In this week’s episode, I will share with you three top tips to stop treating your business like a hobby and start treating it like a business. For many years, I've been getting in and out of corporate. I've started several businesses that never came to fruition, and I was sent right back to the nine-to-five world. However, the moment I started treating my entrepreneurial endeavours as a business, things changed completely.

My invitation for you today is to start implementing these three simple tips in your business to experience massive growth in no time.

What You Will Learn In This Episode:

- Separating our personal finances from our business finances is crucial to verify its growth and evolution

- Why we shouldn't be afraid of investing in our business as it grows

- Planning content, offers, and launches ahead promote consistency, which is key to scaling

- Why investing in our team is the best kind of investment

- What we should have in mind when hiring our team members

Part of treating our business as a business is to stop being involved in every action and decision. We must bring a CEO approach to it, using our time where we are more efficient and capable of generating more cash flow. This is why hiring the right people is critical, as it will free time in our schedule, liberating us from the things we enjoy less doing, so we can focus on the growth of our business.
