73: #73 How to Develop a Success-Oriented Business Mindset

Starting a business and being a business owner are two very different things — and today, we’re diving into the mindset shift that separates the dreamers from the doers (with a few hilarious missteps along the way!).  This episode is part storytime, part strategy, and a whole lot of honesty. I’m sharing the full circle journey of how I went from a pom-pom-selling kid to running a franchise I was completely misaligned with, to finally becoming a true business owner — one with conscious decisions, clarity, and confidence. We’ll talk about the big difference between owning a business and thinking like a business owner. I’ll walk you through my early missteps (including my wildly unrealistic expectations of passive income from a kids’ activity magazine… when I don’t even like kids!), what it means to step back from “doing the do,” and how to shift into a CEO mindset — even if your business is just you right now. This isn’t about toxic hustle or pretending you’ve got it all figured out. It’s about taking responsibility, working smarter, and giving yourself permission to evolve. If you've ever felt like you're doing everything but still not seeing the progress you want, this one’s for you. 🛠️ Helpful Links: 🌀 Download the free guide: Feeling Stuck 📖 Read my book 💬 Work with me  I'd love to hear your story — from your first business dream to where you are now.
