In today's episode, we're diving into the real-life challenges of running a business, beyond our usual SEO discussions. I'm pulling back the curtain on the everyday realities that come with turning your passion into a thriving business. Balancing work with being a partner and a parent is no easy feat—it's a lot more stress than most people can imagine.

That's why it's crucial to be prepared for life's inevitable surprises.

Today, I'll share my own wake-up call from four years ago and how taking daily steps has led to the bittersweet success I enjoy today. Join me for an inspiring conversation about resilience, growth, and the power of persistence.

In our quest for SEO optimization, it's crucial to adhere to best practices. As a brick and mortar business owner, your time is precious, and simply writing a blog for the sake of it isn't an option. We need every blog post and website page to pull its weight and drive results for us. That's why today, I'm delving into four prevalent mistakes I've encountered while collaborating with clients, sharing insights and lessons learned along the way.

In today's episode, we're diving deep into the concept of scaling a brick-and-mortar business. Many of us start as solopreneurs, fueled by passion and a desire to share our expertise with others. But as our businesses flourish, the question of scalability arises: How do we take our ventures to the next level?

During a recent consultation with one of my VIP clients, we explored this very question. Should they expand into a larger physical space, or pivot towards online courses to reach a wider audience or do we just sit tight for a bit.

It's easy to get sucked into the hustle of grow, build, and scale. But on must look at the logistics, the numbers, the stress level of what you can truly handle and how it affects those you love.
