I’ve been thinking a lot about what it actually means to lead your business… not just run it. And something I shared in this week’s email keeps circling back for me: CEO identity isn’t about how much you do. It’s about how you decide. Most of us built our business from the place of: - “I’ll just do it real quick…” - “I’ll handle it…” - “It’s fine, I’ll figure it out…” - “I’ll catch up later…” And suddenly we’re juggling 20 tabs, 6 roles, 4 deadlines, 3 kids, and 1 nervous system trying to hold it all together. So this week, I’d love to bring the conversation here: What part of your business makes you slip into ‘employee mode’ instead of ‘CEO mode’? Is it: ✨ Saying yes too quickly ✨ Doing everything manually ✨ Not wanting to slow down long enough to decide ✨ Avoiding the thing you know would make everything easier ✨ Always reacting instead of leading There’s no wrong answer, we all have our “thing.” Drop yours below and let’s talk about it. I’ll share mine in the comments too.

We made it through another week AND this group keeps getting richer, warmer, and more alive because of all of you showing up, sharing honestly, and doing the work (even the tiny steps count). I can't believe we are already at 45 amazing CEO's here! Since this week we’ve been focusing on cleaning up the backend + making our businesses feel lighter, let’s celebrate the real wins happening behind the scenes. Drop ONE win from your week below: It can be anything… - You finally renamed that folder that’s been stressing you out - You deleted those 42 duplicate files - You set up a simple automation - You prepped something that future-you will be SO grateful for - You made money without being glued to your laptop - You said no to something that drained you - Or you simply rested because your body said “hey… sit down” It all counts. It all matters. And it all builds the kind of business you’re here to create, intentional, sustainable, and rooted in the life you want. 👇🏽 Share your win below so we can celebrate you. And don’t forget to celebrate someone else’s win too, we’re building a community where nobody grows alone.
