18.Navigate Your Business Dry Spell Without Losing Your Mind
Manage episode 461114765 series 3597882
Running a successful business isn't always sunshine and rainbows. I'm getting real about my 2024 journey — from a failed launch to juggling a wedding, honeymoon, and house purchase. I learned the most important lesson: that dry spells are actually invitations to level up.
I'm sharing how I transformed my own business plateau into powerful insights about pricing, marketing, and most importantly, trusting my intuition. Whether you're questioning your prices, feeling pressure to market aggressively, or just trying to figure out your next move, this episode cuts through with what I wish someone had told me.
Forget the cookie-cutter advice. Let's talk about what actually works for YOUR unique business DNA, from human design to finding your natural sales style. Plus, I'm busting the myth that you need to hustle harder when business slows down (spoiler: sometimes doing less is the answer).
In this episode, we discuss:
Why traditional marketing advice might be sabotaging your success
The truth about pricing (and why your gut feeling matters more than market research)
What should you focus on during a business dry spell?
How to know when it's time to invest vs. when to pull back
The real reason most business owners struggle during dry spells
Why detaching from your business might be the key to growth
