In this popular episode of How to Run a Successful Business and Still Have a Life, Stacey dives into one of her favourite topics: creating a powerful vision for your business. Building on last week’s episode about discovering your why, this conversation explores how a clear vision can guide your company, inspire your team, and create meaningful impact in your community.

Stacey walks through the essential questions every business owner should ask when crafting a vision statement — including what inspired the business, who it serves, what makes it special, and the long-term difference it aims to make. She also breaks down her simple five-step structure for writing a strong and effective vision:
Who is doing it? What are they doing? Who are they doing it for? How are they doing it? And what is the ultimate impact?

Using her own business, Port Macquarie Performing Arts, as an example, Stacey demonstrates how a vision goes far beyond what you do — it communicates the transformation you create and how you want your customers to feel long after they’ve worked with you.

Listeners are encouraged to reflect, write, and refine their own business vision using Stacey’s downloadable worksheet. This episode is a must-listen for anyone wanting clarity, purpose, and direction in their business.

In this highlight episode, Stacey revisits a fan favourite conversation — a deep dive into understanding your why and how clarifying it can transform both your business and your life.

Stacey shares how her own why began with her love of dance and grew into a broader mission of empowering others to step into their purpose. She explores why your why matters, how it differentiates you in a crowded market, and why it should guide your decisions, your communication, and the experience you create for your customers.

Drawing on insights from Simon Sinek’s Start With Why and Find Your Why, this episode walks you through the simple structure of a powerful why statement — one that blends contribution and impact. Stacey breaks down what makes a why compelling, actionable, and enduring, and how aligning with yours can bring clarity to your messaging and momentum to your business.

You’ll walk away with a clearer understanding of what drives you, a practical framework to help you articulate your own why, and inspiration to weave it into the way you lead, work, and live every day.

In this popular highlight episode, Stacey revisits one of the most downloaded conversations on the podcast — a foundational exploration of what success truly means and how redefining it can transform both your business and your life.

For years, Stacey held a skewed vision of success, shaped by external expectations and old role modelling. Through challenges, lessons, and reflection, she discovered a far more powerful definition — one that aligns with personal values, family life, and long-term fulfilment.

This episode breaks down the three pillars of success — Time, Energy, and Money — and helps you understand how each one shapes your daily experience and your long-term goals. Stacey shares how refining these pillars changed her business, and offers practical insights so you can define success on your own terms.

You’ll walk away with clarity, confidence, and a tangible action plan to help you dive deeper into how you’re spending your time, where you’re investing your energy, and what kind of lifestyle you’re building financially.
