Send us Fan MailIn this episode, I’m getting very real about my business journey and sharing my actual numbers.I wanted to record this episode because I know how easy it is to look around online and feel like you’re the only one struggling, or like everyone else has it all figured out. So instead of sugar coating things, I decided to break down what really happened in my business over the last two years, what worked, what didn’t, and how I was able to triple my revenue this year.I walk you through my revenue from 2023, 2024, and 2025, how I went from barely being profitable to tripling my revenue in 2025, and the hard lessons I learned along the way especially around pricing, capacity, and paying myself.I also break down the four revenue streams that made up my income this year, why my highest-earning offer, and how I’m restructuring my business to build something more sustainable moving into 2026.In this episode, I talk about:How much I actually made in 2023, 2024, and 2025Why understanding your numbers is non-negotiable as a business ownerThe mistakes I made with pricing and business debtWhat I did during slow seasons instead of giving upThe promotion that helped catapult my businessThe four income streams that contributed to my growthWhy revenue doesn’t always mean profitMy 2026 plan to hit my first $100K year without burning outThe new financial structure I’m implementing in my businessIf you’re building a business and trying to figure it out as you go, this episode is for you.
