I was about to sit back down at my desk after the kids went to bed to bang out a few more hours of work…

And I woke myself up with a “Belinda, what the heck are you doing?!”

It is so easy as a business owner to work, and work, and work.

Like all the damn time — it can take over our nights, weekends, … even when we are trying to be present for our family and friends and we can still feel a pull to check our phones.

Can you relate?

For many of us, myself included, it is a habit — and not a good one. Almost like an addiction and an identity.

So you know what I did that night?

I hung out with my husband Marc, watched a little TV, and went to bed! 

Then the next day, I arose with an entirely new commitment to help high-achieving women like us off the hustle train.

So you can create a NEW way of running your business where you have real financial systems and strategies in place to help you manage your cash flow and have the money in your business work harder *for* you.

Then, and only then, can you sustainably scale your expert / coaching business past 100k annual revenue without the 24/7 hustle.

So I figured, if I want you to start an entirely new way of being, I need to lead the way!

So next week, I’m kicking off 3 weeks with 3 live videos each week — like a live 9-video mini-series.

Question for you: Do you ever wonder why it feels so difficult to scale your business? 

Why does it seem like some entrepreneurs are growing constantly and actually ENJOYING it, while you feel like you can barely take on another client without sacrificing your time or sanity? 

Here’s the thing, my friend: 

Building a scalable business beyond 100k revenue per year isn’t just about bringing on more clients + making more revenue. 

Stay with me! If increasing what you’re already doing was just about more revenue and clients… well, you’d have to WORK more, right? 

And you already know much more of that is just not possible! 

In fact, I’m willing to bet that adding MORE work wouldn’t even necessarily add more money to your personal bank account. 

It’s probably just adding more stress and resentment toward your business because it’s taking you further away from your family and friends. 

So if only focusing on increasing revenue isn’t going to help you, what do you need to do next…? 

Taking one more marketing course, learning one more sales tactic, or trying one more promotion isn’t going to change the fact that at the end of the month, you still feel like you can’t possibly take on MORE work, even though you WANT to keep growing your business so you can… 

>>> Take home more money.
>>> Have more freedom to do the things you love (in your biz + in your life). 
>>> Help MORE people without having to feel burnt out and run down.

I have this theory that I’m not sure I’ve ever shared with you before. 

You ready for it? 

Ok, so… I think our businesses are a tool for impact. 

Yes, they help us to pay our bills, put food on the table, buy taekwondo nunchucks (#truestory coming soon), fund our kids’ college education, and fund our ROTH IRAs. 

And the fact that we can sell our expertise and make a living off it is PHENOMENAL. And it’s something we should be really friggin’ proud of. 

AND have you ever thought about the ripple effect that impact makes? 

Because on the other end of those payments that come through are people. 

You know, like real people with lives, beating hearts, and real, actual feelings. And because you help them, they’re able to do that amazing thing that you helped them with, better. 

And that creates a ripple effect in their life. 

And that sphere of influence creates more change, and it never really stops. It’s this cycle of change, and positivity, and goodness, that just keeps paying it forward. 

Isn’t that so dang cool?!
