What My Business Taught Me in 2022

Welcome to the final episode of the show for 2022 where I share what my business has taught me this year. These aren’t just business lessons or things I’ve learned from other people or even from experience. It’s specifically what my business was meant to teach me one way or another. Tune in below: Mentioned: * Epic Biz Year Show Notes: * Why I took a break from everything * A goal I’m letting go of and why it never felt aligned * How I lost touch with myself and my business * What my intuition told me to do next * Choosing the wrong mentors and getting triggered * The Instagram trap * How to ‘go back to basics’ in business * How to have your most epic year in business in 2023 Transcript This and last week I took a break from everything and everyone and am reflecting on some of the biggest lessons my business taught me in the last 12 months. Things haven’t been going the way I wanted them lately and that’s when it’s time to remove distractions, find a quiet place, and listen. Listen to what your intuition is telling you, to what your heart truly wants, and to what your soul is calling you to do. Because chances are you’ve been listening to voices other than these lately. That was the case for me so now I’m doing a reset. I’m remembering who I am and what I came here to do. And that wouldn’t be the case if it wasn’t for my business, which is also one of my greatest teachers. So let me share what it has taught me this year. There’s a lot more but I guess for now, these were the lessons I was ready to open my eyes for and actually learn. Here we go. 1. Humility I took my work for granted for many months. I didn’t invest my precious energy in it the way I did before. I followed a path that wasn’t meant for me and started chasing a goal that wasn’t mine yet. Slowly but surely, my business brought me back to reality and made me look in the mirror. To see why things weren’t working, why I didn’t see results, why everything was less than before, and why I didn’t feel good about my business, I had to look at myself, at the shadows, at the things I didn’t wanna admit and bring to the surface. A lot can be discovered in that dark space if you’re willing to go there. For example, thanks to some deep reflection, I realized I was going after a goal that never felt align in the first place. That’s earning 10K/month as a course creator. All this goal did is take me further and further away from that number, make me feel lack when I wake up every day seeing how far I am from it, and take unaligned actions as a result. There’s nothing wrong with the number itself, it’s the energy I put behind it. It’s why I wanted it, or – should I say – the lack of a truly authentic why. This wasn’t gonna make me happier or provide for a lifestyle I desperately needed. Instead, it was going to make me enter a category of business owners online that get to share their big numbers and get more attention thank...
