Breaking Free from Revenue Goals to Build True Wealth

Ready to ditch those “big hairy audacious goals” that leave you feeling exhausted and burnt out? 🚀

If you're tired of chasing arbitrary revenue numbers and hustling yourself into the ground, this episode is your permission slip to do goal setting differently. 

As we step into this new year, I'm sharing my personal journey from being a master hustler to learning the art of “tending to my garden” – and how this shift completely transformed my approach to setting business goals.

I dive deep into why traditional revenue goals can actually hold us back, and how focusing on profit instead can create the abundance and freedom we're really after. This isn't just about hitting numbers – it's about building a sustainable business that serves your life, not the other way around.

“Choose to go deeper with few rather than wider with many.” ✨

🔥 In This Episode:

  • Why chasing massive revenue goals might be keeping you stuck in hustle mode
  • How to shift from volume-focused thinking to value-focused action
  • The mindset shifts that helped me break free from burnout culture
  • Why I'm focusing on profit over revenue (and why you might want to too)
  • How to set goals that nurture your business instead of depleting it

Grab your favorite warm drink and join me for this honest conversation about setting goals that actually feel good to achieve! ☕️

💚 💚 💚
