We all see the highlight reels online — $100K launches from one post, “overnight” wins, and the myth that scaling is seamless. But the truth of running a business looks a lot different behind the scenes.
In this episode, I’m kicking off a brand-new quarterly series with my business BFF, Laura Milroy. Every few months, we’ll sit down to share what’s actually happening inside our businesses — the wins we’re celebrating, the pivots we’re making, and the uncomfortable conversations that come with growth.
In this first check-in, we talk about why taking a summer off wasn’t the death of Laura’s business, how cutting $800 worth of subscriptions changed my margins, and why scaling always comes with self-doubt (even after 10+ years in business). You’ll hear the honest, unfiltered version of entrepreneurship that doesn’t show up in polished Instagram posts.
Whether you’re craving a true BTS glimpse of what it looks like to build and sustain a service-based business, or you just want to feel less alone in the messy middle, you’ll love this conversation.
🎙️ In This Episode:
- The “client graduation” moment and how to know when you’ve done your job
- Laura’s shift toward an agency model (and why she’s making more affordable offers, too)
- The bottleneck problem that happens when you’re “the only one who can do it”
- Why marketing case studies often gaslight us — and how to reframe your own wins
- Cutting costs and subscriptions immediately improve your margins
- The uncomfortable truth: growth always requires making scary decisions
