    About this Episode

    There’s nothing wrong with wanting a small, easy to manage business. Nothing at all. But there are people out there who want more.   There are people out there, like me, who are laser focused on growing companies that 1) build wealth, 2) provide opportunities, 3) create jobs and 4) create legacies for our families that will carry on long after we’re gone. I’m in that camp. A lot of you are in that camp. If you’re not, you can still listen to this podcast, but if you are, you NEED to listen to it. This is what I’ll call a “starter conversation”. In order to get to that legacy or empire building level, you must first stop thinking like a small business owner. What do I mean by that? Well, today we're talking about growing companies and not blocking your money. Yes, a lot of us do this when we don’t want to do more than what’s comfortable. I’m about to make some of you uncomfortable because, well, that’s what I do.  So, sit back and really take in what I’m about to say. The purpose of THIS particular podcast is to get you to stop thinking solo and start thinking company. To grow a COMPANY that frees you of the job you’ve created for yourself in this business. To stop focusing on the negative (managing a team, hiring people, and all of the unsexy stuff that comes with growing a company. Because all of that “stuff” will get you free from the day to day. Making more money, committing less time. Open your mind, be receptive, and let’s get to it. But before you do, ask yourself two questions  What happens if you can no longer serve those in your business on your own?  And, how do I keep the money flowing (comfortably) and the business running ?

    Beyonce is coming out with a new Haircare Line! And it's got people talking. It seems a lot of people, fans and non-fans are confused about this. The general consensus is she is not known for haircare. But it opens up a deeper conversation. Will consumers buy for name recognition or is your personal story behind the brand what attracts them? Well we're all not Beyonce so we don't have a built in audience that will buy whatever. We as businesswomen have to be strategic. It has to make sense to the buying public. People are more focused on authenticity and alignment these days when making purchasing decisions. So let's talk about it.

    Episode 63: Episode 63: The Power of Operational Leverage (Teams)

    Episode 63: Episode 63: The Power of Operational Leverage (Teams)
    I made a post on social media the other day. I said “If you can’t take a 2 week vacation and be off the grid and the business can still run smoothly, you have a leverage problem. If you are not looking to build a company that is independent of you, this episode is not for you.  I have been stressing since forever the power of building a team. Most times I get favorable responses, but every now and then I get the peanut gallery who want to stay small justify all the reasons why they shouldn’t hire.  I’ll guess that right now if you’re listening to this episode you don’t have the luxury of stepping away for any amount of time. Whether a vacation or an emergency, stepping away now would severely handicap your business and earnings. Mostly because you have build a business that is heavily reliant on you, instead of building a company that can be autonomous. Is it fear? Is it the desire to NOT be responsible for other people? Is it that you want to be the center square in the business? Well whatever it is, if you have any goals of building a successful profitable company, you need a team. What that team looks like depends on you and the vision for the company. Today I’ll talk about operational leverage and building a solid team. I’ll share my own tips and when I got to the point that leveraging a team was priority one.

    Episode 62: Episode 62: Shine Even When They Say You Can't
    Whether you're a starter or a veteran entrepreneur, we all experience bouts of imposter syndrome. But more often than not, it's a result of someone else's words, not what we tell ourselves. As women we have to recondition our minds to not let other people's perceptions, labels or words hold our minds hostage. Stand proud and firm in your value and know what you bring to the table.

    Episode 61: Episode 61: Replicate to Scale, or Fail

    Episode 61: Episode 61: Replicate to Scale, or Fail
    No one woman can be an island unto herself…or however the saying goes. Let me just say if you are not looking to build a company that is independent of you, this episode is not for you.  It’s OK to be the little fish and play small, for a little while. But if you’re listening to this, I get the feeling you’re ready to play bigger. When you’re looking to build generational wealth, a company that can be handed down through generations, you have to build with the intention to scale. And for you that means, as the Founder, diminishing your day to day role so that you can leverage the expertise of your team. I know, it can be tough to spend so much time and energy on building the business, endearing yourself to clients, servicing all the clients, and doing every job within the business simply because it’s YOURS. But guess what. Doing that leads you to burn out and severely handicaps your earning potential. What do you want? Do you want to build a thriving company that produces jobs as well as solves your clients’ pain points? Or do you want to be the star of the show? You can’t do both, nor should you want to. Let’s look that the long game here. Building a company that can stand strongly independent of you takes time, understanding and releasing the ego. Today I want to focus on building a scalable company without crumbling beneath the weight of it all. I’ll share my own tips and when I finally got a firm understanding of what it all means.

    Episode 60: Episode 60: Elevate With Exclusivity

    Episode 60: Episode 60: Elevate With Exclusivity
    You know the old saying. “Everything ain’t for everybody”. Well that’s true. Now a lot of people may not want to hear that, but it’s the facts. As you grow your company and become more mature as a CEO, you start to realize that you cannot serve everyone. And by the same token everyone isn’t meant to come along with you on your journey. So it’s not just about the business and clients.  So many of us try to bring everyone along on an idea or a journey and we don’t even realize they’re not meant to come. Well that’s the nice way of putting this. In reality, sometimes you just have to laser focus in on a select niche in order to achieve your goals. Again everything ain’t meant for everybody and you have to be OK with that. Today I want to focus on giving yourself permission to eliminate clients who are not aligned with you. I’ll share my own tips and how I became a master at this by necessity.

    Episode 59: Episode 59: Be Authentically YOU

    Episode 59: Episode 59: Be Authentically YOU
    In a world full of carefully curated, PR driven fake social media driven images, be authentically you.  There is so much pressure on these internet streets to look and play the part. I'm here to tell you that being authentically YOU is enough. People are shifting from the glitz and glam of the dream life and outcomes in favor of real talk from people they'll be trusting to deliver results to them. All of the high glamor photo sessions, pictures of yachts and mansions and talk about making 6 or 7 figure mean NOTHING if you don't have the goods to back it up. So give you customers what they really want. Straight talk with no BS or chaser. In this episode I talk about building your personal and business brand based on walking in your truth.

    Episode 58: Episode 58: Watch Your Circle, Expand Your Mind, Elevate to Succeed

    Episode 58: Episode 58: Watch Your Circle, Expand Your Mind, Elevate to Succeed
    In life and business you have to be discerning about who you let in your orbit. You’re taught from an early age who and who not to trust. For some people, as you get into business, it’s easy to want to befriend everyone. But you quickly learn based on how high you fly who’s there for you, who’s not, and who’s just there for access. You have to be discerning with your circle. And a lot of times, some of you are letting this social media celebrity fame go to your heads when you’re really just being followed by a lot of folks who constantly judge, make up groups and rooms to talk about you, and those who just want to steal your blueprint. Everyone rises when the tides are high. But eventually we’ll see who’s swimming naked when the tide comes in. Today I want this episode to have two purposes. 1) getting you crystal clear on who deserves to be in your circle, and 2) getting good at weeding out the hangers on and leeches. But first ask yourself two questions: 1)     Were it not for social media, would these people still roll with me?2)     Am I giving away too much information that can cause jealousy and copycats?

    Episode 56: Episode 56: Stop Chasing Your Money

    Episode 56: Episode 56: Stop Chasing Your Money
    How many times have you had a client come to you asking to make long term payment arrangements because they feel your price is too high? You end up giving them terms of 12-18 months on something that takes you about 3-6 months to deliver. I used to do that. While most people pay diligently, some people ghost you after a few months! That's when I decided I'm not in the finance business and turned that piece over to a finance company. When you sell something thats $5k or more, many times people are going to ask for a payment plan. In some cases, I firmly believe in the phrase "price is firm, terms are negotiable". But within reason. Some people take advantage of that and you find yourself with crappy cash flow...all because you're trying to be nice. STOP IT. This is not a non-profit and you're not in business of charity. Today I'm talking about the benefits of financing companies. Stop chasing your money!

    Episode 55: Episode 55- Lady "CEO" Call Outs!
    Being a CEO is a privilege as much as it is a responsibility. People often conflate "business owner" with "CEO. Too many folks out there assigning the title of CEO when you aren't ready to be an effective CEO.
