"Permission to Build Slowly" - 138 Nov 28, 2018

Show notes

Where in your business or life are you pushing too hard? Where are you willing to release the pressure of over perfecting and pushing so you can create more time and space for creativity and flow? If you're looking for a new way of doing business, one that's more aligned with you and your purpose, then episode 138 of the Lead with Love Podcast is for you.

In this solo episode, I'm talking about giving ourselves permission to build slowly.

Building slowly is counter intuitive to most people in the business space. It's all about fast growth, high performance and increasing profits as quickly as possible.

And as a serial entrepreneur at heart, having built 4+ businesses, I fully acknowledge that all of those things are important. I'm a huge fan of profitability. I'm a huge fan of high performance. But it all needs to be aligned with purpose. It's not about building fast just for the sake of building fast, as a way to gain that extra external validation. It's about so much more than that. It's about getting back to your why and to the root of what really matters.

What you'll hear (and don't want to miss!):

:: What simplifying to simplify will do for your life and business

:: The concept of "whole living" and why it's essential for us to be dedicating our time to doing it

:: What to consider when building a long-term vision for your business

:: A big mistake that entrepreneurs make when leaving the corporate world to go solo
