Ep 605: Taking Great Care Of The Business Time You Already Have May 31, 2026

Show notes

What you do with your business time matters so much more than how much you have. And if you feel like you should be further along in your business or need more time for your business, this episode is going to blow your mind.

I'm sharing the difference between why you don't need more time to be more successful. And what you do need instead.

Tune in as I share a bunch of personal examples of how stepping into greater responsibility in my personal life and in my business in the last 8 weeks has allowed me to not only build momentum but feel more like myself than ever before.

I'm also sharing two experiences I've had with throwing time at my business problems and why it didn't work (thank god) so you can learn from my mistakes. And why taking great care of the business time you already have is so important (and how to do it).

Ep 603: The Point of Goals (best of the podcast) May 17, 2026

Show notes

Goals have a very specific purpose when it comes to creating what you want in your life and your business. And most perfectionists have never been taught what the point of goals is. So that's what I'm talking about in today's episode.

We perfectionists tend to either set a goal for every single area of our businesses or vague goals (like 'replace my income' or 'go full-time') or we don't have any goals and just hope for the best.

To our perfectionist brains, goals might create evidence that we're not good enough – so we either avoid having one clear goal that we're committed to for our businesses or we spend so long trying to set the perfect goal that it doesn't even get set at all.

Tune in to learn about the point of goals, how to avoid the common goal-setting mistakes that perfectionists make and how I approach goals so that I get the personal growth I want even if I don't achieve the goal itself.
