#44: The Hidden Friction Slowing Your Business Down

from Spark Good Podcast · host Stephanie Malon-Rufi

We all start a new quarter, a new season with the best intentions — a solid plan, clear goals, and real motivation to make it happen. But what if the thing slowing you down isn't your strategy or your schedule? In this episode, Stephanie introduces the 13-week cycle framework and her Sustainable CEO Framework to help you set up your next season with clarity, realistic expectations, and the right rhythms to stay consistent. And then there's the thing nobody really likes to talk about. There's a hidden friction that quietly creeps into so many entrepreneurs' plans — especially for those who are mission-driven and heart-led — and it has nothing to do with tactics or time management. Tune in to find out what it is, why it shows up, and what Stephanie is doing about it in a brand new series launching in April.
