Are You Swimming in the Wrong Pool? The Framework for Business Growth
Feeling stuck in your online course business despite putting in the hours? Your environment might be holding you back more than your skills or strategy! 🚀
When I realized I was the “best swimmer” in South Africa but struggled in an Australian triathlete pool, it hit me: success is relative to who you're surrounded by. Many course creators get comfortable in business groups that no longer challenge them to grow, or worse—spend precious time in communities that don't align with where they truly want to go.
If you've been investing time in networking events that drain you, social media strategies that don't convert, or mastermind groups full of gossip rather than growth, this episode will help you recognize when it's time to find a new pool—even if that means being the least experienced person there for a while.
“Sometimes being in the wrong pool holds you back. Sometimes staying in a group where you're the best in the group or staying in a group where you're comfortable… could be holding you back from growing.” ✨
🔥 In This Episode:
- Identify when your business communities are holding you back instead of propelling you forward
- Discover the four-part framework to evaluate which “pools” you should exit and which you should join
- Learn why being the “worst” in a high-level group accelerates your growth faster than being comfortable
- Understand the warning signs of toxic business communities that will stunt your success
- Create your personalized pruning plan to eliminate what's not serving your next-level goals
Grab your journal and a strong coffee—this episode might prompt some uncomfortable but necessary decisions about where you're investing your time and energy! ☕️
